Chapter 24

Aria’s POV

The only sound was a collective gasp from everyone who was present. I held my breath when I saw David scramble back to his feet. He dusted himself off before rubbing his already bruising jaw. Michael’s eyes flicked to my horrified ones, begging me to do something before this got out of hand.

But I didn’t have to, the most shocking thing happened when David clenched his jaw and walked back up the stairs and inside the house. Everyone kind of looked around confused by the Alpha just walking away from a fight. No one was more surprised than Alpha Reid.

“What? You are just going to walk away and be a coward?” Alpha David just kept walking ignoring Reid. Michael quickly followed behind. For the first time ever, I was actually proud of the way he handled himself. He didn’t give in to his anger, he just simply got up and walked away not wanting to risk the agreement we have come up with. Maybe he really is going to try and right his wrongs.

Looking around, my former Pack members eyes quickly darted away from the scene and they went back to patrolling, leaving just the Blood Moon Pack standing around. I must have missed an order through their Pack link since there were no threatening growls or any attacks from anyone. Reid’s Pack looked tense like they were expecting retaliation, but there wasn’t any. They all simply walked off like we weren’t intruding on their land.

Walking over I went to place my hand one Reid’s arm. He spun around so quickly and gripped my wrist before I made contact. His eyes burned with anger. If looks could kill, I would be a pile of dust by now. I wasn’t sure if he was more pissed that David turned his back on him or my escape. I think it was a mixture of both.

Difference is if I walk away, he will chase after me. So instead, I calmly relaxed in his death grip. When I didn’t pull away, Reid started dragging me towards the open rear door. Once we were close enough, he shoved me inside. I landed on the seat, my legs still hanging out the door. I moved to the other side of the car just as Reid sat down. He didn’t say anything, but when I went to turn and place my feet on the ground, he gripped my ankle and yanked me towards him until I was half on his lap with one leg draped over him the other awkwardly bent next to him. Reid didn’t let go. I watched the fall and rise of his chest while he tried to calm himself and his wolf down.

After a few minutes I tried to remove my leg that he gripped and was forcibly pulled back to the same position. When I heard a growl emit from him, I froze my movements and watched him warily. I could feel his hot breath on my neck.

Being around him is like walking on eggshells.
