Chapter 123: Thank You

Ezra

I hadn't realized how sick with heard her voice and something

I was for Margot until I

de me relaxed. Not only is

she okay, but she's out for blood, My blood. Good. I'd rather fight her while she's standing on her own two feet than while she's lying unconscious in a hospital bed.

She turns when she hears my voice, bearing down on me hard.

"Who do you think you are, huh? How dare you mark me! You think you can just put your mark on me, and I'll calmly submit to you?" she yells, slapping her palm hard against my chest. I have to fight not to smile. D**n, it's good to see her fire back.

"I told you I wasn't going to let you die," I tell her calmly.

"That wasn't your decision," she says, smacking me again. Because I've marked her, I can feel her anger, and the hurt, but underneath that, there's a twinge of happiness that I'm still here and that she is too. "Joshua didn't get to win. He didn't get to have you in life and death. He didn't deserve you and you deserve better than dying because of him," I growl, putting my hand over hers and holding it against my chest.

She narrows her eyes at me. "And then, you don't even have the decency to be there when I wake up? I have to hunt you down so I can yell at you?" she continues. 0.00%

I press my lips together and look away from her. I didn't want to leave her, but Alpha Carter was a good Alpha, he deserved the respect of my attendance at his funeral.

I feel the shift in her as she reads my face. She turns, looking around, suddenly realizing there are others in the room.

"Mother?" she asks, looking aro

Hunter puts a protective arm around Sophie.

"We weren't the only ones who were attacked, Margot. Alpha Robin was attacked as was Alpha Dutton," I say, and she turns back to me.

"What happened?" she asks softly.
