Chapter 10

• Maverick’s POV
• As I climbed the stairs, my sight was fixed on the door to Nora's room. I couldn't help but feel a twinge of possessiveness stirring within me. "When next she needs help," I said in a low tone, "do not render to her. I am her mate, not you. I should be rendering aid to her, not you."
• The words felt strange on my tongue, a sense of protectiveness that I had not expected to feel towards the Luna. But the mere thought of another man, even my own trusted beta, daring to tend to her needs was enough to make me furious.
