Chapter 34

• Killian POV
• Rosa doesn’t clean up anyone’s messes. She doesn’t manage the pack. She doesn’t handle the staff. She doesn’t handle anything. She sits in that house like a queen on a throne that no one ever asked her to occupy, expecting everyone to revolve around her.
• “I had to leave last night.” My voice is flat and steady. I keep my tone cold because I know it’s the only way to cut through her dramatics. “A business opportunity came up. Something urgent. Out of the city. I didn’t have time to explain, and I couldn’t wait. I left.”
