The street of South London blaring with sounds of roaring engines, screeching tyres and cracking exhaust pipes. Nobody gave a dusty fuck about the authorities.

Car Meets, officer. Ain't no illegal street racing bullshit. Just petrolheads and their toys, yeah?

That was the official line right there, what they'd say to the cops. But the air was thick with testosterone, burnt rubber, and cheap lager. Tonight, the wolves came out to play.

And what a pack it was.

Girls in crop tops and boys in leather jackets, along with the demi-humans. Tails swishing, ears twitching at every rev and whistle. Boasting about their modified, expensive vehicles. Muscle cars sat low and mean in tall grass, humming with that low growl of a pissed-off bull. A row of superbikes gleamed under the sickly orange of the streetlamps, owned by a bunch of riders–some big bastards with piercings and tattoos– holding court near a makeshift start line.

And then—he came.

A low murmur rippled through the crowd like a current. "Bloody Rudra comin' in, lads." Heads turned.

Someone let out a low whistle. "Sweet mother Mary."

VROOM. VROOM.

The engine’s growl cut through the chaos clean, an apex predator's purr amongst yapping dogs. Karna, all black and glinting gold-rimmed metal, rumbled to a halt before a gathering of young men and women, some perched on car hoods, others clutching red Solo cups.

Rudra killed his engine, swung a leg over the seat with practiced ease, leather jacket creaking, black shirt hanging open his chest. Six-foot-eight of demi-human muscle. Wolf ears swiveled lazily atop his head, tracking the whispers, the gasps, the not-so-subtle moans. His tail–thick and lush–swept lazily behind him before settling.

"Oi, Roo!" A familiar voice cut through the noise. Marcus, a lad Rudra frequently drank with, owner of a Nissan GT-R that spent more time on jack stands than on asphalt. "Thought you were in Dubai this week, bruv. Heard you got a sponsorship deal with some energy drink cunt."

A younger man stopped his own motorcycle right before Rurdra's Karna. Cutting the engine, he stayed on his bike seat. He's Ishaan, Rudra's younger step-brother, arms folded with a smirk tugged on his lips. Smug boy. He really was enjoying the show amongst the wolves tonight.

Ishaan: "This gonna be fun..." He said under his breath, watching the event unfolding before his eyes.

Rudra's ears twitched. The wolf's ears swiveled toward the sound before his eyes followed. "Dubai's boring. All money, no soul." He pulled his phone from his back pocket, thumb already swiping to Instagram Live. "Besides, what kind of host would I be if I missed my own party?"

The notification blasted across London's car scene within seconds.

Phones vibrated in pockets. Notifications pinged across Snapchat group chats and WhatsApp threads. Somewhere in a Tesco car park three miles away, a group of lads abandoned their half-eaten meal deals and scrambled for their keys.

"Ladies, gents, and everyone in between," Rudra announced to the camera, walking backward into the chaos with the practiced ease of a man who'd done this a thousand times. The screen flooded with heart emojis and flame reactions. "Welcome to the South London Car Meet. Official. Legal. Totally sanctioned."

He winked. The chat exploded.

"There's no racing here, officer. We're just... appreciating automotive excellence." He panned the camera across a row of modified machines—a widebody M3, a supercharged MX-5 that looked held together with zip ties and prayer, a gleaming Hayabusa that had definitely seen some shit. "See? Wholesome. Family-friendly."

Rudra's smirk was a jagged slash of white in his dark beard. Still aiming his own phone at the sea of metal and muscle behind him, then flipped the camera back to himself.

"Right then, you beautiful bastards." He swung the camera back to his face, sweat still glistening at his temples from the ride over. "Who's feeling lucky tonight?"
