| sidestepped into his path, blocking him. 

His eyes narrowed marginally for a moment, before his overly–friendly expression returned. 

“Forgive her, sir,” I said. “It will take her some time to come around to a stranger.” 

“This is what I am attempting to rectify,” Terry countered. “I don’t wish to be a stranger any longer.” 

His gaze dropped down to my breasts, even though I was wearing a sweater, not anything revealing. He 

kept his eyes there, like he could see through my shirt, I crossed my arms over my chest. 

“I wish to be a good friend to you both.” He licked his l*ps. 

Mark moved then, entering the narrowing space between Terry and me, firmly blocking his movement. 

Terry’s smile fell. He lifted a brow in Mark’s direction, questioning. Mark held his ground. 

“Perhaps I could assist you with whatever you need, sir,” Mark said, voice so much sterner than I’d ever 

heard it. This was his soldier voice, I realized, and not the one he used for Elva and I. 

“You are being very bold for a Beta,” Terry said. “Especially when I was only being friend. I wasn’t doing 

anything wrong.” z 

“I’m loyal to my prince and his orders.” 

Terry tilted his head. “And your prince’s orders involve keeping me away from Piper?” 

“I am to protect her and her child from anyone, sir.” Mark’s words sounded like a threat. 

Terry must have heard it too, because he straightened. “It’s awfully presumptuous to assume she would 

need protection from me.” 

“1 am to keep anyone from getting to close.” 

Terry tilted his head back, like he was sizing Mark up. Mark was taller, with more muscle. Unless Terry had a deceptively strong wolf, I’d wager Mark could take him in a fight if it came to that. 

“My nephew gives strange orders regarding his ex–girlfriend,” Terry said. 

I swallowed hard. I didn’t like the way he emphasized ex, though I couldn’t exactly pinpoint why. It felt like he was mocking me somehow, or Nicholas. Neither of which I liked. 

“But I will see myself out, if it would give you peace,” Terry continued. 

“Please.” Mark didn’t move, even as Terry did. He shifted only to continue to stand between me and 

Terry, as Terry moved to the door. Once he disappeared outside of it, Mark sighed so hard, his shoulders 

slouched 

“I’m so sorry, Mark,” I said at once. I remembered how Mark had told me that Terry was good to the staff. “I hope I didn’t put you in an awkward position.” 

Turning to me, Mark shook his head. “I don’t care if it did. And Prince Nicholas would back me up.” 

“But you said…” 

“I didn’t like the way he was looking at you,” Mark said. 

“Me either,” Susie added, stepping away from the window. She crossed the room to stand beside us. 

Elva switched from hiding behind my skirt to hers. 

“I don’t like him, Mommy,” Elva said.
