"You should learn to respect your Luna, Theodora O'Dell!"
A deadly silence fell upon the people turning everyone speechless. Theodora's hand remained raised in the air even after Edwin let go of it.
"Wh-what did you just say?" Theodora asked again dumbfoundedly, not believing what she heard.
Augustus stood up from his chair, and so did everyone else when they saw Edwin draping his arm around Ruth's shoulder.
She looked up at him to see his wolf awake and ready to beat anyone who would dare to hurt his mate in any way.
"Damn!" Lester whistled, not knowing if he should be overjoyed or slam his friend's head into a wall.
Nobody saw this confession coming, but Edwin had already made his mind about it last night itself. He hid his relationship with Ruth to keep her safe. But yesterday opened his eyes, making him realise that she was not safe anyway.
