I stood immobilized, taking in the sight of a dozen thugs closing in on us, each one radiating a fierce and threatening energy.

If Benjamin and I were to reveal our Alpha statuses, we could swiftly shift into our wolf forms and overpower them in mere moments.

However, I was unwilling to expose my identity in front of Benjamin.

He also seemed intent on maintaining his cover as an Alpha in this unfamiliar territory, aware that revealing himself would likely draw unwanted attention from the witches and provoke their aggression.

“It’s them! Get them!”

As I contemplated my next move, the leader of the thugs shouted his orders.

Benjamin and I shared a quick, understanding glance, instinctively leaning against each other while our eyes scanned the encroaching threat.

The thief ignored my question and lunged toward me.

I managed to sidestep just in time, and in that instant, Benjamin delivered a powerful kick to the thug’s midsection, causing him to stagger back several steps.

Our commotion startled the nearby pedestrians, who began to scatter as if desperate to avoid getting caught up in our confrontation.
