Brae's POV

No one is out front so I open the door to the pack house and walk in. I am immediately greeted by snarls and growls from wolves who have jumped from their seats and stand in front of me.

'Ace, I'm here. If you aren't at the front door in two seconds...imma beat a bitch.'

I can almost hear Ace gulp through the link and I can hear footsteps approaching.

"Who do you think you are just walking into this pack house?" A member snarls.

"Who do you think you are disrespecting one of the people who came to help this pathetic pack?"

That causes one of the guys to run up to me and I smirk. He is charging full speed and I side step at the last second. He runs straight into the solid wood door, knocking himself out.

I let out a short laugh, "Weak."

"Hey!" Ace shouts. "This is my Beta, stand down."

You can tell he has authority in his voice, but not quite the strength of an Alpha.

"I didn't even have to lay a hand on him," I roll my eyes.

"Yeah, I know. This pack is...terrible and not just in fighting. They are rude and all have short tempers, I can see why you wanted to leave."

"No shit."

Jake and Ryan walk up to us with angry expressions.

"Who they hell do you think you are, knocking out one of my members," Jake growls.

"Calm down wolfy, he did that to himself."

"You will respect me Beta," Jake uses his alpha tone and I almost snap at him. Almost.

"I do not have to respect you, Jake. We came here to help you, not the other way around."

"I am an Alpha and you are inferior to me, you will respect me," I can see his anger rising and I just laugh.

Jake huffs and rushes out the back door before wolfing out in the house.

"You all need to learn to control your god damn temper."

Ryan glares at me before heading out back where Jake went.

"They don't even recognize you?" Ace asks.

"I told you that I was practically invisible. Where is Grey?"

"Speaking with Ethan in the meeting room. Come on, we should go there."

I nod and he directs me to two large doors. I push them open and Ace trails in behind me. I see recognition cross Ethan's eyes.

I smirk, "Hello Ethan, how have you been?"

"You? How? You couldn't have survived that," Ethan stumbles.

"I didn't."

Confusion is replaced by realization and then fear, "You are a black wolf?"

"Yup," I say, popping the 'p'.

"You didn't even have a wolf. You were no better than a pathetic human," he chuckles, "Seeing that desperate Alpha try to get me to help you was priceless. Even better was when I exiled you instead."

I keep my cool, but Grey had other plans. He pins Ethan to the ground, holding his neck.

"That's right, you were banned from being a pack member by the Alpha King himself, how are you here right now?"
