A smile grew on Elijah's face once the shock wore off. "Well, that's one way to handle your competition." He let out a chuckle and gave me an admiring glance. "I see your plan."
"What plan?" I asked peevishly, glaring at him and then at my own hand. I still couldn't believe my own strength― was it simply a fluke?
"I won't tell anyone," was Elijah's annoying reply. "But you should hope that the Alpha or the Beta doesn't find out about this. He's not going to like you damaging the pack house, even if you are his new Luna."
"I wasn't planning anything!" I insisted, balling my hand into a fist in irritation. "I didn't know this would happen!"
Elijah gave it a wary look and stepped back. "If you say so."
"I do!" I sucked in a deep breath, trying to calm myself down. I didn't want my new pack mates to think I was a pushover, but I also didn't want them to believe I was some scheming snake either.
My stomach growled, breaking the tension.
