The way back was filled with tensions and somberness. Every step felt heavy and difficult to take. Rees had taken Ida on his back. But Ruth rode on Lester's back instead of Edwin's.
Edwin's wolf radiated so much anger that they ran keeping a safe distance from him. Lester did not want Edwin's wolf to do something stupid or worst harm, Ruth. He himself was bothered by Darius's scent on her body.
But he was sure that she must have not realised about it or, else she would not have let Edwin get even a whiff of it. But the question was how did he do that?
That imagination made him feel disgusted. They were ignoring Darius's nonsense for too long, but this time he had crossed his line by messing with Edwin's mate, the werewolf Luna!
Lester's first concern was to get Ruth safely in 'The great manor' and tell Thea to wash her clean of Darius's scent. He only prayed that until then, Edwin would manage to keep his wolf in check or...
His wolf growled loudly, shaking his head furiously.
