I had been nice because I did not want Tamia to view me as a monster, but these people had crossed the line with me. I won't be so talkative with them again, especially the council, who are insular and have outdated opinions about how things should be run. Tamia stood up. "I need to clean up and r

"I am surprised that you would go to this length for your Alphas, Leo," I said, a tinge of anger rising inside me. "I must say I wonder what the moral compass of the east is. I would have been more impressed if you had stepped in and rescued Avery from the abusive Max, who beat her wolf senselessly

~Sylvester~ Leo and I sat in the empty booth and spent at least one hour discussing Max and Kyle. I was amazed to learn how oblivious he was of their activities, and I was amazed to learn how extremely democratic their system in the east was. Wolves needed one leader, one they would listen to and

I was unfortunate because she told her father I had accepted and taken her. So they fought me to get her into my home. Ramsey asked me a couple of times, then threatened me. When that didn't work, he began soliciting alphas to help him go to war against me. He claimed I defiled his daughter, so a m

Leo chuckled and looked at me. "I am a joke," he said, and I frowned. "During one of our arguments in the past, I once told Tamia it wasn't my fault that I found my fated, and she could not understand. I honestly believed I did well, and I tried. Now I realise I was weak. After seeing you give up

~Sylvester~ Leo and I spent a while in the booth, and soon it was time to join our families, so we left the booth. While Leo walked me to my family's booth so he could say hello to Tamia, Max and Kyle joined. It was clear they were lurking around and waiting. Leo shook his head, indicating I dis

"And Wilson too," she said, and I did not know how to respond because Wilson was the one that slapped her when they were coming to the north. I disciplined the Kappa for it, but I wondered if Tamia had forgiven the guy. "It's okay, darling. The jaw-shifting blow Theodore gave him the day we arrived

"I plan on sweeping it under the carpet. I will catch the people she is working with, so we can get closer to the culprit. I am telling you this so you can take steps that won't cause you to be implicated in this crime. You too, Theo," I said, looking at my Gamma. "The person we are dealing with i

~Leo~ I wasn't ready to face Tamia yet, so when Max and Kyle accosted Sylvester and me, I used the opportunity to part ways. I knew seeing Tamia was inevitable, and I wished it would be easy, but I knew it won't. The last time we spoke, she was hurt. I remembered the hurt in her eyes that day. I

Tamia and I had increased the strength of the mountain pack, knocking him out of first place in the east. I was occupying his seat. Kyle and Max knocked him down to fourth place. Could he create trouble for us because of it? I believed it was more profound than that, and I was determined to get to
