Troy:
My warriors understood immediately, but so did the pack’s warriors.
"Stop him from leaving!" one of them yelled, but it was too late.
I sped away while my warriors clashed with theirs. There were not many of my warriors, so I knew they would have to retreat quickly, and they did. The moment I cleared the main gate, my warriors began running out as well.
"Wait, they need us at the mansion!" one of the warriors shouted.
Another warrior drove out in a separate car behind us, but he was speaking to the others instead of chasing us. At that point, Yorick’s warriors had no choice but to turn back and fight to save their alpha and his family.
"Where are we heading?" Leysa asked, snapping me out of my thoughts.
I had taken an abandoned road because I was not certain if they were still following us. At least my wolf understood that I was heading back home to take Clementine to my pack.
"We are going home, my home," I replied quietly.
"Why aren’t we taking her to Ian?" she asked, making me shift uncomfortably in my seat. "I saw the mark on her neck, Troy. Have they marked each other? If so, he should be the one she goes to. Besides, I don’t think she will be okay once she wakes up. All I know is that they had been injecting her with some kind of medicine. I read about it."
Leysa continued in a soft, gentle voice.
"They are somewhere I cannot contact right now. If Haiden’s uncle finds out, it will be bad," I started making excuses because I did not want to take Clementine back to Ian’s house yet.
I had heard what happened between Yorick and Clementine. Maybe she had given him a chance at some point, and that meant I might get lucky too.
But that would mean Clementine cheated on Ian to get pregnant with Yorick. Then again, it did not matter. If she chose me and rejected Ian, that would be all that mattered.
"What? You were saying something."
Leysa’s voice pulled me out of my thoughts, and I adjusted my posture in my seat.
"All I’m saying is that I cannot take her there right now. I have to take her to my pack, and I will ask them to come there. They are currently in Haiden’s pack, and you know Haiden’s uncle. I guess you know the history," I explained.
When I adjusted the rearview mirror, I noticed how she lowered her face in guilt. I felt like slapping myself. Of course she knew the history. Why did I feel the need to remind her? What her father did was not her fault.
