Chapter 19
Sophia & Liam
Sophia
Sophia stumbled, gasping, into the forest. Hot tears of pure rage streamed down her cheeks as she leaned against a tree, pressing her palms so hard against the trunk that the bark bit into her skin.
Humiliated. That was what she was now.
She had spent the better part of the evening scouring the glade, searching for a stray rogue. When she finally lured the beast back to the festival, she thought everything would go as planned.
The rogue had Ella’s scent-Sophia had made sure of that when she had stolen one of Ella’s gloves from the house and waved it in the rogue’s face. He should have attacked her, only her, and for a moment, it had seemed like it might work.
But then Ella had leapt onto the beast like some kind of warrior princess, distracting it until her two knights in shining armor could come save her.
And all Sophia had gotten out of it was a burnt dress-from having been knocked too close to the bonfire by the surging crowd.
In the distance, Sophia could hear the sounds of the party continuing. People cheered, toasted their beautiful, perfect Luna.
Sophia clenched her jaw so hard she thought her teeth might crack. She yanked that stupid, bloody shawl from around her waist and stomped it into the ground, savoring the sound of it squelching into the mud.
Stupid. This was all fucking stupid.
Just then, Sophia’s wolf perked up. A sound came from the nearby forest-twigs snapping underfoot.
Sophia quickly hid behind a nearby tree, carefully peering around it to see a male form stride past and stop a few feet away. She recognized him immediately. Liam.
For a moment she just watched him as he paced the small clearing, dragging his hand through his hair over and over again. He was muttering something under his breath, and when he turned, the moonlight casting a pale silver glow upon his face, Sophia could see his mouth twisted into a grimace.
He was angry.
Sophia tilted her head, considering him for a moment. She knew Liam and Ella had some kind of history together; perhaps one even romantic in nature, although it was probably one-sided.
