Charlotte quickly composed herself and rushed beside Alpha Nick. “Nick, I was merely welcoming Sheila and thanking her for making it in time, but she brushed past me, using so much speed that she almost crashed into the door when Bree vehemently pulled her back,” Charlotte narrated without catching a breath.

Sheila was shocked by the way Charlotte could lie so well without feeling guilty about it. Alpha Nick was a bit skeptical, since he saw the way Sheila was slammed against the wall.
