Chapter 172: Chapter 5: Issue On Brightview Lane

Cassandra was sleeping across my lap, our bodies covered in sweat and the scent of each other's bodies, while I leaned back, enjoying the moonlight shimmering through the ceiling glass, stroking my new lover's silky argent hair.

I knew that shortly, and she would accept her memories as Lupera and become more confident rather than forcing herself to seem strong.

While we both enjoyed a moment of blissful relaxation, a sudden quiet jingle sounded, followed by a vibration from her back.

"Ah... my body won't move. Can you pass me my bag, baby?" Cassandra's voice was so soft... sugary, and lovely that I almost didn't respond to her.

My arm leaned over, pulled the heavy black smartphone from her bag, and passed it to her as she climbed up my body, leaning against my chest, before Cassandra's cute eyes narrowed into crescents, blowing me a kiss.

"One moment, sorry for the disturbance, babe."

"Hello, This is Cassandra Speaking. Who is it?"

Instantly back to her stern voice with a deep and husky tone, Cassandra became work mode while she stroked my thigh with her spare hand.

I didn't want to listen to the call, but the other side sounded distressed, and it seemed to be related to our gang and the girls who had become like sisters to me through taking the blood and transforming.

"Who caused the trouble, a random person, a gang member or just a drunk idiot?"

The girl on the other side of the call seemed upset and wailed, her words hard to understand, but the general situation was that some males came to the bar and bought the expensive Ace set...

Then, she expected 'special' service from the girls. When the onsite manager apologised that those services were terminated, they beat her to the ground and started calling out their names and leader...

"I see..."

"What are the little pricks doing now?" Cassandra was angry... I could see the fur around her wrists and neck fluffing up while her fingertips became sharper, clawing my skin slightly as her words were mixed with growls.

"They are drinking while trying to force other girls to service them... Understood, Brightview Lane? The Lupine Tavern, right?"

"I'll be there in ten minutes; make sure those little cunts know your boss is on the way to crush their tiny balls."

The next moment, Cassandra closed the phone with a loud thunk, slamming it against the couch, her face and body agitated as she started hyperventilating in frustration.

I could only gently hug her back and help her calm down using my anima, hoping to support her while deciding on the real boss.

"I will go."

"Eh... but!?" Her voice was cute, a mixture of the sweet lover voice she used for me and the gruff voice she used to speak to the girls as my arms wrapped around her body and carried her to the small room with a bed I had added mostly for Haruka or Elizabeth who spent a lot of time working here.

"You just had your first time... can you fight without that burning sensation affecting you?"

"Nnnn... but they are my girls..."

"Idiot..." I flicked her nose, curling my lips into a gentle smile, "They are my girls too, rather our girls, no? I promised to protect you all."

"Fuck off, dumbass. You're ruining our smoke area... Hey, boss, kick him out!" Another called, causing the others to laugh, thinking they were tough guys...

"Ah... I wanted to deal with your garbage peacefully..." Leaning my head to the side, it cracked with a great feeling. I was now stronger than over twenty times the average human male, and these guys.. were nothing but garbage to me.

"Hey, fucker..." One tried to grab my shoulder... however, I grabbed his wrist tightly, snapping it instantly as he screamed.

"ARRRGGHHHH!!! WHAT THE FUCK!?"

"Boss!!" Two others lunged at me... but I simply kicked the first's knee, breaking it backwards, causing him to fall screaming while the second swung a fist and, with a simple gust of wind, blew from my lips.

Torn by the flash of magic and wind, his knuckles splintered and dropped him to the ground... "Wow, it worked..." It was my first time adding magic to something as simple as blowing out air... the poor guy's hand looked like I slashed him with several blades, though.

"I'm entering; if you try and stop me again, I will kill you."

"Y-Y-You.... w....who are you!?" The man with the crippled hand asked with a fearful voice.

"Me? I am Shibuya Rai. This is my club, and the girls are my little sisters." With a grin, I flashed my fangs, causing them to piss themselves before rushing away in fear, some even limping away... "Tch... trash."

Stepping into the Lupine Tavern was simple...

I took a moment to enjoy the lovely decor on my first visit. It was the worst type, but the interior was so classy and lovely... Cassandra's tastes were incredible.

Large tables and booths surrounded the main floor, with the middle showing a stage for dancers while stairs led to private rooms with wonderful views of the stage...

However, there, on the main VIP stage, several of my little sisters were being threatened to strip... while trying to protect each other from the Black Snake Gang's evolved humans, who were attacking them with whips and sticks, weapons that would hurt, not kill...

"Ah... I'm pissed off..."

Not only were they hurting my cute little wolf girls, but the best wines and whiskey were lying on the ground like garbage!

How dare these bastards treat our stuff like shit!?

"Hey, idiots... what do you think you are doing?" My voice echoed across the hall...

Almost everyone ignored me, but when the girls recognised me, their expressions lit up but quickly changed due to their fear...

"Boss... run!"

"Big brother... please run!"

"Boss Rai, Please save us!"

Some called my name and begged me to leave, worried they might hurt me, but I grinned widely... "Don't worry, girls... Big brother is here to save you."

Walking closer, the music stopped playing, and everyone focused on me.

However, I felt nothing as I sensed their weak presence, watching me silently and knew that even if I was the weak me from before, I could have handled this trash!
