"Oh, is this the shifter that you have been waiting for?" the man released Hope's arm immediately as Ethan pulled the girl to stand beside him, out from the circle of dancing people.

"You better back off!" Ethan growled and glowered at him. He pulled Hope to his back as he sent the man away only by his glare.

"Wow, easy shifter," he said mockingly, raising both of his hands in the air, giving a surrender-like gesture, yet there was no trace of fear in his brown eyes. "Or should I call you a rogue? You smell like one." He shrugged his shoulder before disappeared among the crowd with his laugh echoed along the loud music.

Afterward, there were only the two of them, standing out of the circle, Ethan grabbed Hope's wrist and dragged her away from the crowded people.

"What are you doing here?!" He hissed viciously at the girl in front of him.
