Piss Off, Alpha! You Lost Me Forever novel Chapter 261

Chapter 261: Chapter 262 His Alone

ZADE’S POV

The rain started the moment we stepped outside Sky Mansion.

A cold breeze moved through the front yard. Dark clouds were already in the sky.

Shit. I didn’t have an umbrella.

Before I could go back inside to get one for Sophia, someone was already standing outside waiting.

Lance.

My wolf immediately growled.

Lance stood in front of us with a large black umbrella in his hand. Rain splashed against his shoulders, but he barely seemed to notice. The moment he saw Sophia step outside, concern filled his face.

He walked forward without hesitation.

"Sophia," he said softly.

Before I could react, he raised the umbrella and carefully positioned it over her head. His entire focus was on her.

My jaw tightened. Inside me, my wolf growled louder.

“Mine.”

Sophia looked surprised by the gesture.

"You didn’t have to stand out here in the rain," she said.

Lance smiled "I didn’t want you getting wet."

My wolf nearly lost his mind.

I stared at the umbrella, then at Lance, then back at the umbrella.

Something about the sight irritated me far more than it should have. A deep feeling of jealousy filled me.

Sophia was standing beneath his protection, under his umbrella. She had his full attention and concern.

I fucking hated it. I absolutely hated it.

I stepped forward and wrapped an arm around Sophia’s waist.

Sophia nearly jumped from shock "Zade!"

I ignored her. My wolf felt much better immediately. 𝚏𝕣𝐞𝗲𝐰𝕖𝐛𝐧𝕠𝕧𝚎𝚕.𝐜𝚘𝗺

Lance’s smile disappeared.

Good.

"What are you doing?" Sophia demanded.

"Making sure you don’t fall."

"You were standing two feet away from me."

"I move fast."

She stared at me. I stared back.

Lance sighed heavily.

For the first time since I’d met him, I saw genuine annoyance in his expression.

"Can we leave now?" he asked.

"Of course," I replied pleasantly.

My wolf laughed.

Lance was glaring at me hard. He definitely wanted to punch me.

That knowledge made me entirely too happy.

The rain continued falling around us as we moved to the car. Sophia tried several times to free herself from my grip, but I refused to let go. She was still recovering. That was my excuse, and I planned to use it as often as possible.

When we reached the vehicle, Lance opened the rear passenger door.

I immediately guided Sophia toward it.

Sophia looked confused. Lance looked suspicious.

I looked innocent or at least I tried to.

"Sophia first," I said.

She carefully climbed into the back seat. The second she settled inside, I climbed in after her.

"What are you doing?" Lance asked.

I looked at him "Getting in the car."

His eye twitched "You can stay in the front."

"No. Drive before the rain gets worse."

For several seconds, neither of us moved. The atmosphere became tense.

Sophia looked exhausted already.

Finally, Lance rubbed his forehead and muttered something under his breath before closing the door.

A moment later, he climbed into the driver’s seat.

“Victory” My wolf practically howled.

Sophia turned toward me "You’re impossible."

I smiled "You’ve mentioned that before."

The car pulled away from Sky Mansion.

Rain tapped softly against the windows.

The atmosphere inside the vehicle should have been peaceful. Unfortunately, I was sitting beside Sophia and Lance was driving...which meant peace was impossible.

Sophia leaned back against the seat. She still looked tired.

The bruises on her face had faded more now but I knew her body was still healing. Every time I looked at her, anger burned inside my chest again.

The people who had hurt her were lucky she kept stopping me. Otherwise, much worse would have happened.

"Are you comfortable, Sweetheart?" I asked.

Sophia turned her head toward me. Lance’s hands tightened around the steering wheel.

My wolf purred “Excellent”.

I would make sure Lance knew exactly who Sophia belonged to.

Sophia narrowed her eyes "Don’t call me that."

"Why?"

"Because it’s weird."

"It isn’t."

"It is."
