Chapter 9 

I watched my mate as anger flashed through his eyes. If he wasn’t mine, I would be absolutely 

terrified. He wrapped the blanket tightly around me and smiled. 

“Can we manage to get her some clothes instead of standing around gawking. Acting like you all have 

never seen a lycan before.” It was more of a command than a question. He had irritation radiating all 

through him. I never noticed the crowd that had gathered around us. I glanced around the room at all the eyes on Everest and myself. 

People scattered everywhere in search of clothing for me to wear. I looked over at Jamie who was 

still healing from the large gash across her upper right arm. I got her good. I smirked feeling victorious for the first time in my life. Then I heard a gasp and my eyes went to the direction of the noise. 

“What happened to my mate?” Ryder had just walked in the room with a group of his friends. He was seething and rushed to Jamie’s side looking her over. 

“She attacked Avalynn, thinking she was weak,” Everest stepped closer “thinking she couldn’t protect herself from her grasping her hair, yanking it, pushing her around, and smacking her,” he was only an arms length away from them now “thinking that she could do what she pleases to someone weaker than her fake, made up position and your web of lies. I guess Avalynn has had enough of the abuse and is tired of being pushed around.” I watched as he was towering over them both. 

Jamie shrinked away and into Ryders arms. Ryder paled and looked like he saw a ghost. His eyes though glared at me and I gave a small shrug. He narrowed his eyes at me and I let out a growl in return. His eyes widened at me. “You did this to your future Luna?” He seemed confused as to why and how lover 

powered her. 

I nodded with a shrug “She is not my Luna.” Gasping around the room and whispers began. Ryder growled at me causing a snarl from Everest. 

Everest took Ryder by the throat and squeezed as he lifted him into the air. Alpha Michael growled, stepping forward wanting to protect his son, Everest growled at him and he stepped down, bowing his head. Because of the aurora coming off in waves from my mate, Ryder was hanging there helpless. No one dared to try anything against the Lycan Prince. It affected everyone except me. My eyes quickly darted around the room seeing how everyone’s neck was exposed as a show of submission to the powerful Lycan 

Prince. 

I watched in awe as my mate stood up for me. It was the first time, other than Claire, someone has stood up for me. I couldn’t help it but the corners of my mouth titled up with a small smile. I was so proud to call him my mate
