Chapter 18

• Damien POV
• “The Darkvale Alpha has refused my request for communication.” The words leave me in a low growl as I relay the update to Geneviève. I’m not surprised. Lucas wouldn’t have moved without my permission because I explicitly ordered him never to share anything with her. I told myself it was to keep her from carrying too much…but maybe that was just the excuse I fed both myself and my wolf.
• “Unbelievable. The audacity.” Geneviève’s snarl slices through the room. “He thinks he can ignore you? Fine. Let’s hit him where it’ll actually hurt.” She storms out of my office, the door slamming so hard behind her that the frame trembles.
