Their Secret Obsession by Pippa Moon

Chapter 0196

Lottie POV

I got it, they wanted the pack to be strong, but at what point did their need for power and control come before their own family?

I inwardly seethed to Sage, my body humming with outrage "A calculated and manipulative volition of their power." "Absolutely." Sage agreed, but her attention was now solely on the twins and the handsome faces they were
