Riona didn't know what had happened to make the king this angry. She could barely feel her legs; her whole body went numb with fear.
That Alpha had been proposing the marriage confidently! You would think that meant he had already obtained her uncle's permission.
She cursed herself for not clarifying that part with Thorin during their negotiation of the marriage terms.
King Valentin's chest heaved up and down with rage. His green eyes turned red with anger. Riona had never seen him like this.
If he hates werewolves this much, why did he invite Thorin for an alliance in the first place?
She couldn't afford to think about the answer because her uncle didn't give her time to rest. He raised his hand, clutching Riona by the throat with an invisible force.
"You will not leave this palace. I won't ever let you," he declared.
