Chapter 92
It was the most incredible thing I’d ever seen–in an instant, Sadie had tears pooling in her eyes. “I was just stopping to tell Senna I was glad she was feeling better.”
The guy–Chris, I remembered–wiped a stray tear off Sadie’s cheek. “That doesn’t sound like something to be upset over.”
Sadie sniffed, looking truly hurt. “She said some ugly things about me and Anson.”
Chris‘ chest puffed up and he dropped his arm from around Sadie’s shoulders. “What’s your problem?”
“Do you seriously believe that act? You have to know your girlfriend well enough to know that I wasn’t the one tossing out
insults.”
He stalked towards me, crowding me against my locker. “You calling my girlfriend a liar?”
“Back off,” I warned.
“Seriously, Chris. Anson will remove your head from your body if he hears about this,” Cass said.
Chris only moved in closer. “Heard you like to spread those legs for anyone who wants a piece.” His hand came up, skimming my waist and moving towards my breast.
A sick panic welled up in me and before I could think, I shoved at his chest. Hard. A burst of energy exploded from my palms.
Chris stumbled back, falling on his ass. “What the fuck? Did you just tase me?”
Cass hurried to step in front of me. “No, I did. And you’re lucky that’s all.”
“Hey, what the hell is going on?” Anson charged down the hallway, Knox, River and Caspian on his heels.
Chris climbed to his feet. “Your new friends are psychos.”
Anson moved to my side. “What did they do?”
I couldn’t answer. I was still staring at my hands. Maybe I was a psycho, The energy that had sparked from my palms was a fraction of what I was capable of. I could’ve seriously hurt him or worse.
“Ro?” Anson prodded.
“Your ex kicked Senna’s bag and said some rude shit. But your best buddy over there called her a slut and tried to feel her up,” Cass explained helpfully.
Anson froze and then slowly turned around. “You what?”
Chris paled. “She’s lying. I didn’t do any of that.”
Anson lunged. Some part of my brain woke up at that, and I grabbed the back of his shirt as Knox shoved Chris out of the way.

“Get out of here, and if you don’t stay away from Senna, I’ll let him at you the next time,” Knox barked.
Anson was still stalking after Chris, practically dragging me down the hall.
“Stop,” I ordered, gripping his shirt tighter. “I’m fine.”
River stepped in Anson’s path. “Not worth it, man.”
“I’m going to kill him.”
“Not going to help the situation,” Luc argued.
Anson blew out a long breath, and I slowly released my hold on his shirt. Anson turned, pulling me into his arms. “I’m so
sorry.”
“It’s not your fault,” I mumbled into his chest.
“I shouldn’t have left you alone.” He released me. “How’d you get him off you?”
My gaze went from Anson’s face to my hands. I stared at my palms. “I don’t know.”
“Walk me through it again,“Knox demanded.
My gaze kept drifting to my hands. I couldn’t help it.
River covered my hand with his. “It’s okay, Ro. We’re just trying to figure out what happened.”
I jerked my arm back. “Don’t. What if I hurt you?”
He moved slowly, taking my hand again. “You’re not going to hurt me.”
Tears burned the backs of my eyes. “You don’t know that.”
Caspian took my other hand in his. “You were defending yourself. It was your power lashing out because you were in danger.”
Anson growled from the driver’s seat.
I looked up at Knox. “What kind of power is this?”
He was always the one with the answers, but right now, it didn’t seem like he had any. “There are offensive powers. But I’ve never heard of a wolf having two gifts.” He leaned towards the back seat, squeezing my thigh. “Can you tell me what happened
one more time?”
I sent a sidelong glance in Anson’s direction. I wasn’t sure he could handle me covering the events of this afternoon again. The first time I’d started recounting it, he’d swerved off the road and begun pounding the steering wheel.
Knox followed my line of sight. “Anson has it under control. Right?”
