Nikoli hadn’t been out for trouble that much he had been certain off. It had been about three months since he had set off on his journey, except it wasn’t so much of a journey as it was him trying to escape and run until he found somewhere safe. Things hadn’t exactly been easy since his own pack had disbanded after their numbers had dropped. It hadn’t been safe to stick together with no pack leader and no one willing to step up. Nik wasn’t fit for the job; none of the males had been so it had simply been safer to split. Of course that decision hadn’t exactly worked in Nik’s favour who soon found himself on the run from humans and other packs. It had forever proved difficult to find safety, everywhere was either a no go zone or belonged to a pack who didn’t seem that comfortable by a packless shifter in their midst.

The city had provided a place to grab something to eat, to move through crowds hopefully unnoticed, until someone, an idiot that didn’t know when to mind his own business, decided to make Nik’s presence his business. The altercation hadn’t gone well, sure Nik had defended himself but he had lost out perhaps because of exhaustion or merely being the weaker one and in the end found himself being dragged off like some naughty school boy. He’d have laughed at the thought if he actually found anything funny these days.

The club wasn’t a welcome change of pace or scenery, the loud music, the crush of bodies had Nik cringing, turning his face away from any light, his body tensing at the feeling of music vibrating through him, the brush of another being against him. He was marginally grateful when he was dragged into an office, away from the noise and the bodies.

While having his captor gone was a bonus, Nik was pretty certain he was in for trouble unless he talked himself of this. Although he wasn’t really in the talking mood, one thing he had learnt from his father, talking never did anyone any good, especially a packless shifter. Taking the seat motioned to by Tao, he glanced at the man for a moment, sizing him up before he looked down, shrugging at the question. He wasn’t after anything, that he had decided on, he had just wanted to make his way through, no trouble, no fuss.
