But finding "prey" online wasn't exactly easy. Most of them were too far away, outside his territory, so for now, there weren't any good targets.
Before long, Ethan received a private message.
It was from Mia: "Your profile style's pretty cool..."
"Are you complimenting yourself?" Ethan shot back.
Mia replied, "I'm planning to head to Pasadena. Thought I'd borrow a route from you, and I brought you something while I'm at it."
"How polite of you," Ethan responded.
Pasadena was just across the river. Taking a route through Ethan's territory would save a lot of time compared to going the long way around.
Still... Ethan was curious.
"What are you going to Pasadena for?"
"Rescue mission. A supply team from the shelter got trapped there. Why? Interested?"
"Hmm... Come to my place first. We'll talk then." Ethan sent the message, set his phone down on the coffee table, and leaned back on the couch, deep in thought.
