Chapter 13
A sudden silence filled the chaotic fire station. Dane scanned the room, looking at his colleagues who were sprawled on the floor, groaning. They were soaked in sweat, and some of them, despite trying, collapsed again when they attempted to get up.
What the hell is going on here? It was hard to believe. These colleagues, who never fell behind in terms of stamina, were now so helplessly knocked out. He couldn’t believe it, even though he had seen it with his own eyes.
What was even harder to believe was that this man was standing right in front of him. Dane squinted his eyes and stared at the person. It was the same man he had met a few days ago at the extreme alphas’ pheromone party. The one who, without caring for the fire, released a thick pheromone that caused two omegas to lose their minds and laughed like a madman.
Could this bastard really be Grayson Miller?
Dane had thought it was just a fleeting encounter and had knocked him out lightly, never expecting to meet him again.
But there was no time to think longer. Grayson’s purple eyes darkened, and then he swung the crowbar he was holding. The heavy sound of metal cutting through the air hit Dane’s ears.
"Whoops."
Dane instinctively crouched. He narrowly avoided the strike and immediately grabbed the item he had prepared beside him. Then, the white powder shot out with a loud, sweeping sound.
“Ughh—cough!”
The compressed powder sprayed out mercilessly. The strong pressure pushed the white powder out with such force that it was as if it devoured the very air, filling the room with a thick fog. The mist, like dense smoke, filled the space, making it impossible to see even an inch ahead.
A strange, bubbling growl escaped from Grayson’s mouth. The fine powder stuck to his skin, quickly invading his nose, mouth, and throat. However, Dane, «N.o.v.e.l.i.g.h.t» with an indifferent expression, continued to spray the powder at him, holding the fire extinguisher and pulling the safety pin.
The man, who had been causing a ruckus, finally lost his will to fight and started coughing violently. Dane stopped spraying, but Grayson’s coughing didn’t stop easily. Once he could barely breathe, he glared at Dane with bloodshot eyes and clenched his teeth.
