Serena POV
He didn’t answer, instead he looked down at his feet. After a long silence, I decided to ask him something else. I made a mental note to circle back to the question later.
"I need to know, Baird," I began, my voice trembling slightly but gaining strength as I continued. "What will you do if Alpha Grayson finds out who I am and commands you to kill me? You're a warrior of the Storm Pack, bound by duty. Will you follow his orders?"
He sighed deeply, running a hand through his hair. "Serena, as long as I'm on the patrol team, I will do anything to protect this pack and the people I love, including you."
"But that's not an answer!" I shot back, frustration bubbling up inside me. "What if the Storm Pack insists on fighting the Pack Alliance? Will you invade my homeland and attack my people?"
Baird's jaw clenched, and he took a step closer to me. "You're worrying about things that will never happen."
