When Leland heard from Duncan that Sophie had returned to Hauntingen, he had hoped that he could return and take her as his mate.
However, apparently, someone else already captured her heart. That man called Sophie 'wifey'. She was also wearing a wedding ring on her finger. And… from their mixed scents, Leland could tell they had consummated their marriage.
She had found her mate, and it was not Leland.
Anger was slowly rising in his icy heart. He wanted to kill the other man and snatched Sophie away from him.
If Leland wanted to, he could tear the guy's heart out regardless of him being a werewolf or not. However, the crystal clear expression of contentment in Sophie's face made him hold back.
Leland took a deep breath to calm down his raging heart.
Without another word, the Alpha turned away and sped off.
