Chapter 16

The next day 

Claim 

The Night Howlers clubhouse is quieter than I expect, especially as it’s full of large men watching me. I feel their eyes as I cross the main room with Mayhem by my side, but I don’t return their stares and glares. I don’t want to look like a woman entering enemy territory… even if that’s exactly what I am. 

Knox’s office is at the back of the building. I watch Mayhem settle himself at the end of the hallway, then go into the office alone. For a moment, Knox and I stand across from each 

other with the desk between us. 

“You told me that my name is tied to things,” I say without greeting or preamble. “Show me.”
