Chapter 29: A Werewolf!

LIANA

"What the hell are you doing here?" James's voice seemed like he was surprised.

I didn’t open the door but placed my ears close to hear who he was talking to.

"Leave Liana alone," I heard Zaylen warn, "or else I'll take you to the cops."

I heaved a sigh in relief.

Zaylen was here, finally. But how could he come here in five minutes? Was he nearby or what?

Anyway, it was none of my business as long as he helped me get rid of James.

"You have no right to interfere in my business," James spat, his words slurred with the unmistakable edge of drunkenness. “In fact, what the hell are you even doing here? Why did she call you of all people?”

"Liana is not your business," Zaylen shot back, his tone firm and commanding, "and since she is not your business, you don't need to know why I am the person she called.”

James let out a disbelieving laugh. “Wow, Liana, I can't believe you are already sleeping with the boss right after breaking up with me. And you called me a cheater?”
