"Wow, this coffee tastes strong!"
Aodhan coughed and grimaced. He then got up from his chair to dilute his coffee with a lot of milk and sugar. Sitting opposite of him was Alric, who chugged the contents of his cracked mug as if it were water. As square as he was, he barely noticed Aodhan's complaints and instead focused on the news on his tablet.
"Oh wow, a Matriarch was found dead near her base and her Beta."
Aodhan raised an eyebrow. "That's the third matriarch to go down."
Alric looked surprised. "What?"
"A long while ago, before I migrated to The Underground, Sloth and her pack were killed. They haven't found her Alpha, though, so people were speculating some internal rivalries caused them to implode on themselves."
"Huh, I thought you couldn't harm fellow pack members?"
"Yeah, but the public doesn't know that." Aodhan shrugged and sipped on his heavily sweetened brew.
"What about the other matriarch?"
