Chapter 233: Protection from who?
"What the hell is she doing here?" Angela's voice shook the walls, heavy with anger and disappointment. She
stormed forward, but Taros caught her around the waist, pulling her back. She fought against him, struggling to
free herself so she could face the girl who dared step into her territory. "Letgo, Taros. | swear | will break
your arm."
"Angela, calm down. You're too angry right now, and your voice is loud enough to break through even these
walls," Taros said firmly, refusing to let go. He knew what she wanted to do, and though he could not blher,
he also knew they were all responsible for this mess.
When the broke out, Seraphina quickly moved to the corner behind Alex. Her heart was pounding as fear
crept through her. She could feel the rage of the she-wolf staring her down, ready to rip her apart the second she
had the chance. It was easy to see who the girl was, she didn’t need anyone to tell her. This was Kaito’s
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtsupposed mate.
Even though the girl wore clothes that made her look like a boy, and even carried herself like one, her voice
carried a sharpness that sounded more feminine than anything Seraphina had ever heard.
She didn’t need explanations, the truth stood right in front of her. All she wished for in that moment was to
escape this mess.
"You need to letgo, Taros, or | will explode right here," Angela warned, her voice shaking. Her hands
trembled as she held back her wolf with everything in her. "Do you think this is funny?"
"No, my queen," Taros said, tightening his hold as if his strength alone could keep her together. "I just need you
to calm down."
She twisted and even tried to sink her teeth into his hand to break free, but he refused to let her. "I will release
you if you promise not to lose control," he begged.
"What the fuck are you doing?" she snapped, her chest heaving. Her wolf clawed at her insides, ready to break
out and shred everyone in the room just to get to Seraphina.
"I'm trying to protect you..." Taros murmured, his voice low.
Angela's eyes burned as she turned on him. "Protectfrom who?" Her voice cracked with rage and pain. "You
are the ones who brought her here, and now you expectto stay quiet after catching you all in this mess.
Liars. Every single one of you. Men will always be men. That was the only truth Grace ever told me."
"She lied," Taros loosened his hold, but his body stayed tense. He watched her every move, ready to grab her
again if she tried something reckless. He knew she could explode at any moment, and he feared what she might
do if she reached Seraphina.
Angela's chest heaved as she turned her burning gaze on Alex. Her heart squeezed with a pain she could barely
carry. "I cannot believe you did this," she said, her voice shaking. "You... my best friend. The one person |
trusted. You stood there silent while | burned inside. | thought you would never keep something like this from me.
Are you no longer my friend? Have you ever even been my friend, Alex?"
Alex swallowed hard, his eyes fixed on the ground because he could not bear to meet hers. "You have always
been my friend," he muttered, shheavy in his voice.
"Then why did you hurtlike this?" she shouted, her voice cracking under the weight of anger and heartbreak.
"Why would you betraythis way? | expected better from you."
"It is not what you think. You are misunderstanding everything," he said, his voice low and weak.
Angela stared at him in disbelief, then let out a sharp laugh that cut through the heavy silence. "l am
misunderstanding this?" She spun to Taros, her eyes wide with bitter rage. "Do you hear him? | am the one
misunderstanding?"
Taros, caught between them, gave a small shake of his head, silently choosing her side. He only wanted her calm
so he could get her out of this house before she lost control completely. But he could see it in her eyes—Angela’s
hurt ran too deep, and Seraphina’s presence had only poured salt into wounds that were already bleeding.
