*Tiessa*
I woke up as I heard footsteps approaching us. Varon would keep us safe, but it would be much better for me to be awake too.
I opened my eyes and saw Marisol standing over me. Well, not really standing over us. She was a fair distance away. My arm unconsciously curved tighter around Vira.
I knew she wasn’t going to pluck my baby out of my arms or throw me in prison, but I still couldn’t fight the feeling that it was exactly what she was going to do.
She wanted Varon out of her territory; any Alpha would want that. But as long as I held on to Vira, there was no way that he was going to leave. And Marisol would pry my baby out of my arms to have Varon gone.
“I have an offer for you, Marisol,” Varon spoke out of nowhere, surprising me.
I was more than a little surprised by him. I hadn’t thought that he was really thinking of a solution because I hadn’t thought that he really wanted me with him. Honestly, I could understand if he didn’t.
