The Protector Novel

The Lopez and the Blacks gazed unwaveringly at Zoey.

Suddenly, she became distinctly aware of the weight of their disapproval upon her.

Zoey was trying hard to steady her breath.

“Says me! What about it?” The sound of Levi’s voice came at that moment.

“Levi, how dare you show your face here?” Shaun shouted in a fury.

“Why can’t I be here?” Levi chuckled in disdain.

“This is the unification ceremony of the Four Great Families. Did you receive an invitation?” Shaun demanded.

“No, I did not.”

“How brazen of you to show up without an invitation. Get lost!” the crowd shouted.

“Levi, the spots for attending this ceremony are limited. Besides, I was the one who had decided on who to invite and where they were to be seated. It would be impossible for you to sneak in unnoticed.”

“Don’t even think about currying favor with the Four Great Families,” Shaun continued. “I suggest that you give up now.”

The crowd that had gathered to witness Shaun rudely denying Levi entry had numbered in the hundreds.
