Chapter 200: Food Is Food
"I’m sorry, would you like to repeat that?" asked Dante, looking down at the man he didn’t recognize at the front gate.
The man glared at him like he was some sort of scum on the bottom of his shoe. "I said that you are not welcome here. Go fuck off, and maybe you won’t be killed."
"This is the Dragon’s Lair?" asked Chang Xuefeng as he looked at Tank. Tink was trailing behind the four men, but he was making his anger apparent with the swish of his tail.
"It is," replied Tank, his eyes narrowing on the man at the gate. They hadn’t been gone all that long, maybe a bit more than a month, but he hadn’t really been counting. How could things have gone to shit like this so soon?
"And this is the safe haven you have prepared for your little Lamb?" While Chang Xuefeng might not have meant it how it sounded, the condescending tone that he was using was enough to set Tank off.
He had spent months going through and vetting every single person in that building before setting off to get his woman. He even waited a few more days after he felt her return just to make sure that everything would be perfect.
And this was what he came back to?
He guessed it was a blessing in disguise that she hadn’t arrived with them. If she had seen this, she would have doubted just how well he could protect her. And that was her whole point in coming, here. She wanted the protection and safety she had experienced before.
"Where is Bishop?" demanded Dante, feeling the tension practically flowing off Tank. At least Beau was keeping his demon in check because if Gluttony was anything like Pride, they were ready to level everything and just start over from scratch.
