Chapter 110
“What kind of shindig was that, if even the mutts were invited.” I gripped Caleb’s arm, my voice low and serious.
Caleb’s

Sure enough, Kyle, who’d fasted Caleb’s wrath before, coughed and nudged the person yapding beside him. “Knock it off, will ya? Piss off a madman, and he could take you out without batting
an eye.
The guy swallowed hard, shutting up immediately.
“Good dogs don’t stand in the way.” I said, deliberately tripping Kyle as he walked by

Fuming. Kyle clenched his fists and shot me a glare. “Crazy witch…”
He thought I was crazy as well.
Kyle glanced at his cronies. “I didn’t react last time, but are you telling me we can’t take down one lunatic if we team up? Let’s get him!”
