My jaw clenched tighter . Mason howled inside of me , his fury rippling through my veins . The scene before us was humiliating a deliberate disrespect I couldnt ignore I matched Scarletts deliberate stride with my own my boots banging against the earth with a forceful rhythm . Mason pressed me forward , demanding action , demanding control . In just a few seconds , I was within reach of her , cutting off her slow escape . Scarlett , I said firmly . My voice came out rough , cutting through the empty night air , She stopped . I knew she could hear the command in my voice , but she turned slowly , deliberately . Her piercing emerald eyes raked over me , glinting with cold amusement . You will accept the pack escort I said , voice hardening with each word . She blinked pretending to think about it , rolling her shoulders as though shaking off my mere presence like dust . Then , she smirked . That cold , sharp curve of her lips lit fires under my skin . Still trying , are you ? she mocked , tilting her head . The moonlight bounced against her impossibly bright eyes , turning her defiance into a weapon . Still clinging to control like its something you ever truly had . Dont make this worse , I hissed , stepping closer . The air between us was sizzling with energy now , her wolf Cor watching Masons every twitch . Worse ? she repeated , mock surprise flooding her tone . Her smirk widened , the challenge dancing clearly on her face . 1 think youve managed to make it worse all by yourself Enough I growled , words vibrating with restrained command . But she laughed . That laugh seemed to slice right through me , sharp and cold , draining any composure I had left . Enough ? Are you sure , Alexander ? From where Im standing , it looks like youve barely started . Around us , the forest felt alive with tension . Jason shifted from foot to foot behind me , probably feeling Masons frustration clawing to be let out e smirk deepened , feeding on the chaos she knew she was causing . Tell me something , Alpha . Her words were slow , deliberate , emphasizing my title as if mocking the weight cared . If youre so full of authority , why dont you use it to fix the mess your mates in My fists clenched at that her taunting words more like daggers . This isnt the place- Oh no , this is the place . Lets talk about Grace , shall we ? She leaned closer , her voice dropping into a sharp whisper . The real problem . You run to her , you plead for forgiveness while dragging me into your farce . Maybe you should worry more about her failing health than about who escorts me the ten steps to my car . The venom in her words rattled me , Masons growl echoing in my chest as her woll brushed arrogantly against his energy . Her control , he can mockery , was unbearable This has nothing to do with It has everything to do with her ! Scarlett snapped suddenly , her words cutting through the night like a whip . Her voice wasnt calm anymore , raw anger laced through each syllable . You want me to pretend I dont see through you ? You want to act like Im blind to what youve been doing ? Jason audibly inhaled behind us , his discomfort palpable , but Scarlett wasnt finished You flaunted her in front of me ! Over and over again ! What was it , Alexander ? Did you think I would roll over ? Submit to a mate who doesnt even know the meaning of respect ? Watch your words- Nor she snapped , stepping closer to me . Her emerald eyes blazed like wildfire , her wolfs power radiating as if daring Mason to try her . Youre womed about the packs lances , about the Councils approval , but where were you , huh ? Every time they whispered , every time your pack reduced me to some face of a Luna ? You werent there You Were With Her Every word of hers was like another strike , relentless , unyielding . And she wasnt afraid of the tension radiating from my wolf in fact , she thrived on told you to stop , I growled through gritted teeth , Mason snapping behind my voice And I told you the truth She barely flinched Her voice cut across my mind through the pack link in weak , trembling gasps .

I cant breathe . Come please Alexander . Scarlett must have seen the shift in my expression because the smirk returned controlled , knowing . Her eyes softened just for a moment , but not in kindness na , it was pity . Grace again ? she asked softly , her mock concern almost believable . Better run along , Alpha . She seems to have perfected her damsel routine . I stiffened , struggling to manage the storm withing beneath my skin . I shook my head violently , Mason roaring for something or someone to take This ceremony will happen I snarled , stepping forward . Do you understand what will happen if you reject it ? You have no alles now , Scarlett . The Northern Territories ? The Council ? They will cut every tie to your = My nothing ? she slashed back venomously , cutting me off .
