119 | Hopeful Goodbyes

Dominic wasn't surprised that they had arrived at 9 A.M. The only reason he had told the pack last night that he was expecting Cole around noon was that Dominic didn't want the informant telling Cole he'd be ready for the bastard. "How many?" Dominic asked Ray

"Trevor says there's something like one hundred and seventy out there, but, likely, some of them are just there to stand at his side," Ray replied.

"What about the three packs that offered to come and stand at our side, are they here?" 

"Arrived an hour ago just before Lance and Brick. Everyone's waiting just inside the gate." They had arranged for their allies to arrive early, suspecting Cole would make an attack in the morning time in the belief that he would be catching Dominic unawares. 

"Okay. Don't let Cole and his crew through the gate until I get there." 

"Sure."
