Annelise’s chest tightened. Rokky’s words hit too deep.

And that stupid rabbit. Always mouthing off and then turning around with that soft heart. He never changed.
She raised her voice right away.
“Rokky, you’re like every other guy. If anything wrong, it’s my fault for not stepping up for you. Got that?
“Quit blaming yourself for everything.
“You’re not some burden. We wouldn’t even be here if it weren’t for you. All those beast. corpses? That was all you. You made it easy.”
Rokky scratched the back of his neck and gave her a bashful smile.
Then he picked her up and ran. With a few sharp bounds, they reached the cave where Clara was being held.
Nobody else was around.
No shifter lived nearby. No prey either.
Rokky stayed by the entrance. Deep inside, Clar was on her knees. One ankle was chained, and her whole body was bruised and battered.
Yep. The chief really had someone beat her.
Clara lifted her head when she heard movemen. Her eyes locked on Annelise, filled with
hate.
“You came to rub it in?
“Is this what you wanted? Are you happy now?”
Annelise shook her head. “No. I’m not happy.”
“You-”
Annelise folded her hands behind her back. “Because the one who really tried to kill me… wasn’t you.”
Clara froze. Her voice cracked with panic. “No! I was me!”

Just the fact she’d pissed herself when the juuki showed up said enough. She was too weak. Someone else had to be calling the shots.
Clara tried to speak, but Annelise lifted a hand.
“Wait. Let me ask you something. Did you ever see Rokky as a kid?”
Annelise laid it out straight.
Rokky got exiled fifteen years ago. He was 25 then. Clara had to be at least ten. She would’ve remembered.
Even if no one knew where Rokky came from. Even if he hadn’t shown a hint of beast instinct for 25 years.

A guy like him, just walking around the tribe, would’ve left a mark.
Clara hesitated. “Yeah. I did.”
“What kind of memories?”
“Why does that matter? However, the tribe

“Nope. Not buying that.”

“You… No!”
“Oh? Then, why’d Cadogo say he saw your dad kneeling to help your mom put her shoes on?”
Clara’s lips tightened. “My mom’s the chief!
“Even I can help her with shoes. That doesn’t mean anything!”
Annelise gave her a smile but didn’t say a word.
Clara saw it. Her spine went cold.
Then Annelise added offhandedly, “I made that up. Cadogo never said that.

“But thanks. Now I know for sure. That whole shoe thing? Only the chief’s family does it.
“Which means Rokky was raised in secret as her mate.”
“No! That’s just some twisted theory-”
Annelise snapped her fingers with a clean, sharp pop.
Didn’t matter. She’d guessed right.
She didn’t bother saying another word. She turned and walked out.
Clara’s stomach dropped hard. She was dead meat.
Even if her mom didn’t kill her, her status as the chief’s daughter was already gone.
On the way back, Annelise kept thinking as she searched for Adrian. That chief must’ve spent years going after male shifters.
With Rokky, she couldn’t kill him quietly or toss him in a ritual. So she had him thrown out, hoping he’d lose it and die out there.
But Rokky was too good. Too tough. No family. No weak spots. He couldn’t be threatened.
So why go so far?
Annelise let out a slow breath andre amb
whispered, “Rokky, I’m almost there. I’ll clear your name.”
