"What the heck are you doing here?" Mikain's voice was heard as he closed the door loudly behind him. Philip instantly felt trapped, scared for his life but he tried really hard to hide it. 

His mask was his smile and cheerful voice, the way he tilted his head to the side and playfully raised his arms in the air, pretending to surrender 

"I come in peace." He said. "I think there has been a misunderstanding. I came here to fix it" he told his Alpha and Mikain stared at him, his eyes squeezed as he observed his every move.

"Where is the guy I sent here?" Mikain asked and Philip smiled brightly, showing with his head the bathroom.

"He's sleeping. Wouldn't bother him if I were you" he said. The tall man walked towards the locked door, unlocking it and opened it to face the chaos that Philip had created. 

Indeed the other werewolf was still unconscious, drenched in his own blood, left on the cold floor while pieces of the broken sink surrounded him. Mikain frowned, disgusted and closed the door, locking it again before he turned his dark eyes towards Philip once more.

"You know that if I just pushed you out of this door right now hundreds of wolves would be ready to tear you apart?" He asked him, a sadistic smile on his face and the young werewolf forced himself to relax. 

"I do. Believe me I am very scared." He said in a teasing tone. "But even though I know you're mad at me I still came here, despite being in danger, don't you want to know why?" He asked him, hoping to make him wonder, stop him from throwing him outside. It was horrible, to feel safer locked in a room with your worst enemy rather outside with your own people. That was how much Mikain had polluted their pack.

Philip, all of his friends simply had chosen to ignore it. Pretend they couldn't see the corruption and the rot growing into the people's hearts. It didn't affect them, they believed it never would until all of them found themselves ostracized, a prey just to be hunted and Philip, he felt the fear of losing the one he wanted. They were at fault too, thinking they were indestructible until everything crumbled and they had to face the disasters they had been ignoring.

"That is true." He said, tilting his head to the side. "I do want to know why you'd come back. I had been informed you ran away with your friends." He said and Philip faked a small laugh.

"I did. But you know what? I realized something. You are wrong about me. I would never betray you, I would never sabotage your plans." Philip told him, trying to sound as sincere as he could. His lies, they left a bitter taste in his mouth, making his stomach turn. 

"Is that so? And you came all the way here to tell me that?" He asked and the young werewolf stood up. He took a few steps closer, approaching the man that stood before him like a powerful wall. Mikain looked down at him, intrigued by his movement. Philip rested his palm on his chest, slowly, his eyes, doe, meeting Mikain's. 

He wanted to throw up, things seemed to be going well though. He couldn't stop now. If he made it then he would have helped save Kai. He wanted to run away, every muscle on his body was resisting the way he acted, how he touched the Alpha or the seductive way he met his eyes. The cunning tone he had or the sweet words he was prepared to say. He was a lie, at that moment his whole being was a disguise. All he had to do was lead him to that glass, make him interested enough, make him trust him enough so he would drink that potion. It was so simple but at the same time so hard to do.

"Yes, I didn't want you to think badly of me. We had some rather... unpleasant." Philip said and Mikain laughed, making his insides turn.

"Well, it was something." The Alpha stated, showing him that he wanted for Philip to continue talking. "But why would you want me to have a good opinion of you?"

"You're the Alpha. I am not that stupid." Philip said with a smile laced with mystery. The hand that was resting on Mikain's chest moved upwards and he caressed the man's jawline, making him tense slightly. "Also you're very handsome. The truth is I fear my cowardice made me lose a very good chance of having fun with you. I want to be on your good side, I want to have a man like you." He said and Mikain's eyes lit up.

He was satisfied, blinded by his own narcissistic tendencies he didn't see behind Philip's lies. All he could feel was proud. He had the power to draw everyone around him, he was irresistible, that was what he was thinking about himself and it was showing so clearly on his face.

His strong arm wrapped around Philip's waist, bringing him closer in a hurry and he leaned in closer, whispering to him, his hot breath landing on his neck.

"We seem to have found something we agree on" he said and kissed Philip's neck, making all the hairs rise in his body. The werewolf frowned, knowing that the Alpha couldn't see him but still he laughed, approving of Mikain's words.

He moved his hand, placing his palm under the man's shirt, feeling his abs and the slow moving of his breathing and the Alpha pushed him roughly towards the bed. 

Philip's heart almost exploded from fear as he landed on the soft sheets, feeling the slick silk underneath him. He took a deep breath, gulping as he watched the man hover above him and he smiled, trying to put his mask back on.

"I had my eyes on you for a while." Mikain mumbled as his hands traced lines over his body. 

"What took you so long then?" Philip asked him seductively and Mikain moved in, intending to kiss him. In a hurry the young man tumbled to the side, a cute giggle escaping his lips. "Let's drink something first. I am not that easy." He said playfully and Mikain smirked. He sat at the edge of the bed, seeing how Philip moved towards the luxurious bar and grabbed two filled glasses.

"You were prepared." The Alpha told him.

"I always have a plan" he said, making him smile and he moved his glass close to his lips. He watched carefully, his hazel eyes appearing above the rim of the glass as Mikain brought the delicate object close to his lips. 

He didn't drink though. He looked at the liquid, smelling it. His smile slowly disappeared and he raised his head, the bottomless eyes meeting with Philip's. He squeezed the glass, shattering it in his palm, shards of glass and whiskey falling on his lap.

At that moment the young werewolf realized everything. Mikain had smelled it, he had smelled what Reina, Mika and him couldn't. He was stronger than them, faster than them of course he would have a better sense of smell than them. 

Mikain stood up, anger bottling and overflowing from his eyes while Philip took a step back, his glass falling from his hand and shattering on the warm carpet, dumping it and making another mess. 

He had been so close, close enough to think that he would succeed but now, all he could do was prepare to face failure. That and death. His head snapped to the side, his eyes begging for the door to somehow magically open and for him to find himself outside, free. Nothing happened though and once the Alpha realized what he was thinking he walked and stood in front of the door, hiding his only thought of salvation. 

"You are one sneaky motherfucker. You won't be getting out of here alive. I promise you" Mikain told him and Philip's eyes widened in terror.

He was doomed.

At first his only thought was how he would save Kai, stop Mikain from ruining the pack, return to his happy life but now he couldn't help but wonder how he would be able to save himself, he was going to die. There was no other outcome he could actually think of.

"Let's talk about it." He said, his voice shaking before he attempted to run first. Mikain laughed loudly, grabbing him from the back of his neck and Philip thought of the man he had knocked out, thrown into the bathroom as if he was trash. Now it was his turn, karma was out to get him but he would end up dying too.

"I am done talking" Mikain said.
