Chapter 12.

Malachi POV.

I stand there watching as Dahlia and Harrison walk hand in hand towards the ice cream counter.

“She has always loved pups.” Sadia’s voice draws me to look at her, and she has an amused look on her face.

“Yeah, she has. She has a heart of gold.” I say when I hear a scoff, I turn to look at the male with the blonde hair with a shit-eating grin on his face.

“Yeah, she does. Shame you didn’t see that sooner.” He shrugs when the others look at me as well. They think they can intimidate me. How wrong of them to even think they can.

“If you have something to say, just say it. No point in beating around the bush.” I say, looking at him when he chuckles before he places his hands flat on top of the table as he stands. He is tall, but not as tall as the others and definitely not as tall as me.

“For a warrior, you are rather tall and broad. If I didn’t know any different, I would say you had alpha blood. We haven’t been introduced. I’m Alpha Lucius Santo of the Crescent moon Pack.”
