Anabella looked stunned as she looked down at James.
The alpha pup clutched her skirt as he growled at the alpha pair in front of Anabella with a suspicious look.
James's distrust sparked clearly on his face as he hid more than half of his body behind Anabella. But he also refused to accept other unknown alphas in his territory.
Anabella felt her face flush as she looked down at James. She wanted to speak, but her mouth felt dry, and her brain stopped computing what was happening.
In theory, she knew what she was experiencing, but her brain refused to accept it as reality.
"James, it's alright. These two are not strangers. They are my friends from school, whom I have not seen for some time. They will not hurt us, so there is no need to be so on guard."
Anabella's instincts told her to kneel and calm James down.
Despite being an alpha, he was still a pup, and Anabella's omega wanted her to help the pup settle down.
