Big reveal ...

Lyla

Nathan growled, stepping towards their leader. His pupils had blackened.

"Why? On what grounds?" he demanded, still shielding me.

"We do not owe you an explanation, Alpha Nathan," their leader replied coldly. Then he side-stepped Nathan, and came toward me, preparing to read the arrest warrant but I held up my hand.

I stepped out from behind Nathan, my head held high despite the trembling in my hands. "There's no need to read out the arrest grounds," I said. "I'll go with you willingly."

Nathan turned to me, staring at me with disbelief. "Lyla, no…"

I cut him off with a glance. I was better off going to White Moon Pack than staying here with Nathan's erratic behaviour. Perhaps, this was Ramsey's ploy to get me out. I had mentioned to him earlier what Nathan had done. Perhaps, this was his way of rescuing me.
