Five Alphas Kneel for Me (Isabella) novel Chapter 30

Chapter 30

Grayson’s words were sharp and cutting

His wolf’s amusement was evident in the subele shift of his posture.

Being mocked by his nemesis, Alpha Calet/e face fell, be alone Jared’s

Their wolves bristled at the implied challenge.

Her? A victim? Ha! That’s laughable.

She should be the one causing trouble for Emily, not playing the innocent Grayson’s wice dripped with sarcasm, his wolf enjoying the verbal sparring

I was used to their disbelief and blame, unwilling to waste my breath arguing

My she wolf felt a familiar weariness,

When my gaze met Grayson’s, I saw the encouragement in his deep, ink–black eyes, a promise that he’d support me

My she wolf felt a surge of warmth and confidence at his unspoken loyalty.

My hardened heart softened.“Alpha Miller, you know how crucial those consistent scores are to Emily.

She cries and makes a fuss over missing a single class.

My poor grades are because I covered for her, missing countless classes.”

My she wolf emphasized the truth in my tone.

I even skipped my own trials to take Emily’s! My she wolf felt a pang of resentment at the unfairness of it all.

“That’s still your fault! If you’d taken the same classes as Emily, there wouldn’t be a problem!” Jared’s wolf snarled, unwilling to accept

blame.

I innocently blinked at Grayson.

It wasn’t that I couldn’t explain, but because I can’t wake someone who’s pretending to be asleep.

No matter what I did or said, I was always wrong in their eyes.

My she wolf felt a surge of frustration.

What I needed to do wasn’t explain, but to force them to confront the truth!

“I’m not trying to prove anything, but if Alpha Miller insists on saying that, how about we make a wager?” I challenged them, my voice unwavering

My she wolf felt a surge of righteous anger.

Jared sneered. “You’re not seriously thinking of comparing trial scores with Emily, are you? That’s a low blow, knowing Emily is preparing for a crucial hunt, is injured, and lost her participation points because of you, her scores will be poor, so you’re challenging

her now!”

His wolf felt a surge of protective anger.

“You say I held her back at the longhouse.

Now that I’m gone, her scores shouldn’t matter to me.

But I won’t bet on her scores; you’ll find excuses,

I’m betting that if I don’t have to cover for her anymore, my scores will improve.” I smiled confidently, my voice firm.

My she–wolf sensed victory.

Jared and Alpha Caleb exchanged glances, a flicker of doubt crossing their faces.

Their wolves felt a prickle of unease.

They suddenly remembered my excellent past scores.

I’d been in the top ten in the province, and the North pack wasn’t my first choice.

I only chose it because they insisted I stay close to home.

Their wolves remembered my past triumphs.
