He’s supposed to be dead. The one man, the only Alpha who called me just like that was dead.

He hissed this time.

“Too many questions, young girl. I’m just an old, weak wolf. Take it easy on me and yes, Darius threw me here.”

“Why?” I asked.

“Why else? Because he wants to take over my pack,”“

He spat with hatred.
