Chapter 77

ALPHA GUNNOLF

Leonie flinched as I rose my hands up. It was evident that she felt like I was about to strike her, but I wasn’t going to do that, yet I brought my hands down. The pain in her eyes were alive, but I ignored it. She was not to be trusted.

“Why did you do all these?” I asked in a calmer voice.

She fidgeted pulling her hands around as she tried hard not to meet my gaze. I wondered if she thought I would find out the truth if I looked into her eyes. It should be the case, for her kind are not good people.

“I don’t understand, Alpha Gunnolf. The kid was crying and I couldn’t let him go just like that. I had to do something,” she said calmly.

I turned away from her, my hands fisting to my sides. “Liar!” I accused.

I could hear her sharp intake of breath. “I’m not lying. I would never try to flee from helping someone,” she said quietly.

I growled as I took in the deserted backyard. I closed my briefly to control myself. I had to be in control of my emotions and the situations.
