Zack POV
I could see the tension rise between both Seth and Mike. I heard Kristine’s mother gasp at the promise of death if Seth did not concede his pack to Mike. I could see in Seth’s eyes he felt he would be able to win against his son. Did it need to come to that? Did they really need to fight to one of their deaths?
“I am sure we can come to a reasonable solution,” I suggested as both men continued to stare at one another. “There is only one way this ends right. Either he hands over the pack, or I fight for it,” Mike stated coldly. I could feel Kristine tense beside me. I knew she did not need this type of stress with everything she had just gone through.
“Well, Seth. What do you propose?” I asked as I tightened my arm around Kristine’s waist. I wanted to ease her worry.
