Chapter 17 FINDING YOURS

Damon growls dropping his folded arms as he glares at me as if I was the cause. "I'm going to make it regret ever even looking at you." He promises and I feel my chest tighten slightly.

"We don't know if i-"

"Nothing else would leave prints that big." Damon continues cutting dad off. "I'll have my fun with that son of a b*tch when I find it."

I bite my tongue to stop the chance of me exclaiming my protests knowing that would only take me down a long, narrow path. Instead, I reply with the quickest reason my mind could come up with.

"I got distracted and wandered off." I explain, forcing myself to calm my heart. "I went into its territory I guess, and disturbed its hunting. It was just defense but it didn't kill me; it could've if it wanted to."

"Doesn't change the fact that it hurt you." Aiden says coldly. His eyes didn't light up with a fiery gaze like they usually did when he was mad. In fact, they were just cold.
