"To be free from his tyranny… to rule," he shrugged. "You can take your pick. I don't know which you prefer."

"How did you get into the pack undetected?" I asked, eyeing him warily. "The pack is heavily protected."
"it is, yes, but there's a brief window between when the guards change. It's just a minute long but I'm fucking fast. I get in and out with ease."
"Did you take note of that?" I asked Eric who hummed.
