When Alexandria reached out to help, I pushed her away, snapping, “Get Lost!”
Her face fell, hurt shing across her features.
She opened her mouth, seemingly about to talk, but I was in no mood to listen.
Angrily, I shouted, “Alexandria, don’t you get it? Just leave!”
Yet, despite my harshness, she stayed, pulling out some medicine and said earnestly, “No, Alpha, you’re hurt.
I need to treat your wound.
”
I didn’t respond and simply stood up to leave.
At that moment, Carlos blocked my path.
He could tell something was off and asked suspiciously, “Caleb, what’s going on? You’re acting strange.
Is there trouble with Alexandria?”
“Carlos, are you blind? Isn’t it obvious?” Zoe sneered.
I shot Zoe a silent look and walked away.
Back at the vi, I copsed on the sofa, overwhelmed by a wave of gloom, which made me incredibly irritable.
Just as I was about to close my eyes and rest, I heard footsteps from the stairs.
My heart raced.
These weren’t the light steps of a child, but those of an adult.
Could it be…?
Without thinking, I turned and eximed, “Debra, you’re finally back.

A thunderous voice shattered my pleasant reverie.
Themanding voice belonged to none other than my mother, Jenifer.
d in a sleek, midnight-ck dress with a knee-high hemline, she red at me, descending the staircase with measured steps.
Each sway of her elegant dress hem added weight to her presence.
She was typically a paragon of grace among our pack’s women.
Now, however, she wore an icy veneer, her expression chillingly distant.
My heart plummeted.
It seemed she was already aware of the news.
I hung my head, murmuring softly, “Mom, have you already heard everything?”
She approached me with a frigid gaze, looking angry and disappointed.
