Chapter 93 Protecting Her

• Freya’s POV
• The pale morning light crept across Alpha Kieran’s chamber like a trespasser, brushing against my face before I was ready to open my eyes. Sleep had been a lie anyway—a fragile blanket I hid under, pretending I hadn’t seen what I saw. Pretending I hadn’t heard the quiet thud of her back against his desk. Pretending I hadn’t felt the shift in his smell when he returned.
• My eyes flung open instinctively as I felt a shadow hovering over me. Lyra watched me wide-eyed, a smile on her face that broke me as images from the night before flooded my mind. If only she had the slightest idea what had transpired! I reached out and tucked a loose lock of her hair behind her ear.
