Chapter 10: The Alpha's Protection

As Detective Mitchell left, I felt a sense of unease. What was going on, and why was Ethan in danger?

Ethan pulled me close, his eyes blazing with a fierce intensity. "Don't worry, Lexi," he whispered. "I'll protect you. You're mine, and I'll do whatever it takes to keep you safe."

I felt a surge of fear as I realized the truth.

Ethan was putting himself in danger to protect me. And I knew that I had to do whatever it took to keep him safe.
