The pack members around us stood stunned.
Ethan and Victoria stood in the crowd, their faces ashen.
Only Lily, my precious Lily, looked up at me as if seeing a hero..
“Mommy, you’re so amazing!”
I lifted her into my arms and addressed Ethan:
“Mr. Blackwood, I apologize, but Lily is only my child. She has no connection to Shadow Moon Pack”
“We’ll leave immediately.”
The next moment, a guard seized my free right arm.
Victoria’s venomous voice came from behind:
“Do you think you can come and go from the pack house as you please?”
“Beat her and throw her out!”
The guard’s grip was powerful. I could hear the bones in my right wrist cracking.
I had once been Silver Crescent’s finest warrior, raised in battle since childhood, growing up amid inter–pack conflicts. During these years with Ethan, life had been too peaceful. He had no idea I was a skilled fighter.
Anticipating the guard would next kick at my knees, I kicked his shin instead and flipped him over my shoulder.
