Filthy rich werewolves by Taylor Caine novel Chapter 96

"Why should I apologize?" Zoe says angrily. She rubs her face and steps near her brother as if intending to shove him down the escalator next.

At this moment, people come over, one after another. People point and stare at Lily. She’s a celebrity so even with her hat and sunglasses, she’s recognizable. A crowd begins to form.

"It's Lily. Is that her fiancée next to her?"

"What are they doing here?"

"What's wrong with the escalator? Did something happen just now?"

“Oh my god, is that blood on the steps!?”

Voices sound around us. Everything is hazy and I think I’m going to vomit from the pain. Lina helps me walk down the remainder of the escalator. Seeing this, Sean hurriedly runs down the stairs to catch up with us.

Lily's eyes flash with surprise. She growls quietly.

He holds up his hands in surrender. “I’m not going to hurt her.” Then to me: “Are you okay?”

“Sean!” Lily screams.

He ignores her.

The crowd starts wildly speculating.

"Lily's fiancé went to chase after another woman."

"Oh my god, is this a bloody love triangle?”

“Did Sean dump her for this woman?”

“Lily,” Zoe says. “We should go.”

Dozens of people have their phones out and are closing in on them.

Lily manages a coy smile as she and Zoe hold onto each other and hurry away. Lily covers her face with her hands and tries her best to avoid the cameras as they cut through the crowd.

Since the only way ‘out’ is at the bottom of the escalator, I’m standing right there, well, I’m held upright by Lina, and Sean is on the other side of me, when they make their escape.

Sean steps in front of me, physically blocking his sister and future wife. Is he protecting me?

When they’ve gone and the rumble of a sports car is heard from the parking garage, he turns back to me.
