He roared, spittle raining down on her skin. The world seemed to take a breath. And then the most inhuman sound erupted from Evander's throat, and he slammed Alpha Kai's body into the wall with enough force to make the packhouse groan.

Slim. Deadly. Its edge shimmered faintly, almost invisible in the light.
