Building maintenance was informed immediately to repair the door and add a new lock. Two nights later Tommys' apartment was attacked. This time it was Charlie himself. He was very surprised though when Tommy meets him between the door and the bedroom with what he thinks is a gun in his hand.

For a moment, I allowed myself to pretend the world wasn't crumbling beneath my feet, that my pack wasn't fractured by betrayal and suspicion. That everything was normal, but peace never lasted long. A sharp knock on my door shattered the quiet. My eyes opened instantly, and I was out of bed before the second knock came. “Come in,” I called. The door opened, revealing Tomas. His jaw was tight.

"You all remember Cobra right? Cobra, this is Hash, Flame, Blade, and Twist." I held back laughter at their names. I mean, mine isn't much better but still.
