Bite down 2

"I need to see Walid," I demand.

"He's bathing in the sauna," Naomi states, "Where is your Guardian? Should you be wandering around unescorted?

I am in the castle. Karamo left earlier in the day. I spent hours looking for Qadir. It was useless. I couldn't find him. I was going to demand that Walid turn the asshole over to me.

"I need Walid."

Naomi shakes her head, "Who do you think you are? Prince would never speak to me like this. What kind of Beta are you?"

Her voice is annoyed.

"What are you? His goddam watchdog? I need to see Walid!"

"Have you lost your fucking mind---" Naomi starts.

Naomi takes a step forward and growls. I can see her face She's interrupted however. She's interrupted by Fang. Walid's brother. Fang puts his hand out. He touches Naomi on the shoulder. She calms down when he does.

"Naomi go fetch."

Naomi gives me a hard look before turning around. I can tell she doesn't really care for me. Hell by the look on Fang's face I can tell that he doesn't really care for me much either. He just crosses his arms at that moment and shakes his head.

Fang takes a long look at me when he does.

"Can I help you with something?

"I need to see Walid?"

"I know you are my brother's favorite and you'll probably be his Beta, but you don't go around here making demands. My brother is in charge of this Pack...not his potential Beta wolf. You do understand that right?"

"You don't like me?" I ask.

"Because of you we had to give away Nasir's bones. Those bones were precious to Walid. They were precious to me..." Fang explains, "We had to give them to a goddam stranger at that. Wolf bones are supposed to be burned."

He is really holding the fact that some bones were given away. I could care less about these fucking bones. I could care less about anything that Fang was talking about right now. He was not making any sense and he was seeming like a less attractive, whiny miniature version of Walid. I wasn't amused by this guy at all. Maybe that's why I walk forward.

Maybe that's why I lay a finger on his chest.

"Listen. I'm tired of you Vanderbilts and your bullshit," I state at that moment, "I'm tired of your weird ass traditions. I'm tired of getting backstabbed every time I look the other way. Qadir tried to kill me. One of your pack is responsible for trying to KILL me.

Fang is shocked.

"You're lying."

"I don't have time to lie to you," I respond, "I don't have time to talk to you either. So what you will do is swallow your FUCKING pride and do what the fuck I tell you to do. Or I'm leaving this place. And I wonder what your brother will say when he finds out you're the reason I left again?"

I'm being more forceful than I've ever been before. Having a less dominant wolf talk to him like that makes Fang look like he is about to explode. He doesn't though. For some reason the threat of pissing Walid off seems to get his attention more than anything else. They were definitely all terrified of Walid and they knew if I left Walid would be pissed.

The look on Fang's face tells the story. Maybe I've gone too far with the Vanderbilt Pack this time. Now they knew I wasn't like Prince or like Yuma or like the other Vanderbilts.

I was a wolf and I wasn't about to keep getting fucked with.

"Follow me," Fang says.

He's given in. I can tell by the look on his face that he is resisting the fact that he has just given into me. It seems to be painful for him or something. Fang leads me down the hallway towards what looks like a sauna. He unlocks the door. He opens it and steps aside.
