She kept sitting in her place. This was the only thing that she could do now. They all were looking at her, expecting some kind of reaction.

She gave them none, keeping composure at all times and thinking hectically in her mind of what to do next.

“Alpha, she is bleeding so badly!” Dean knelt right next to the couple, “She needs to be taken to hospital! She is an omega and can’t heal quickly.”

“I will be… fine,” Roxy sighed so heavily as if breathing was actually hard for her.

Brayden tried to drill a hole in his wife’s skull with his eyes.

“How could you do this?!” he gritted his teeth, his eyes shining red meaning that his wolf was trying to get through. Did his wolf want to hurt her? Or were they fighting for control because Bray was unreasonable now? Ria thought that she always had a good relationship with his wolf. But she wasn’t so sure about it anymore now that mates were in the game.

“What makes you assume that I did anything?” she raised her brow calmly, holding her cup with fingers that were almost trembling. Almost. She still could keep her cool even in a situation like that. She had to. Especially now that she was about to be accused of snapping and harming her husband’s mistress.

“My mate covered in her own blood says that it’s you!” he hissed.

“And?” Ria shot her brow up, “Since when is she more credible than your wife and Luna of six years. Besides, she did not say that I harmed her. She said that I did not want to. And you know what, I did not want to harm her and I didn’t. I was sitting here, drinking my morning coffee as I always do and minding my own business when your sweet little mate started harming herself.”

“You are not serious right now!” Brayden looked at her in shock.

“Oh, but I am,” Riannon took a sip even though there was practically nothing left in her cup. But she needed this little break to gather her strength. “You know her for what, a few days? Weeks if you had been lying to me. That’s not that long to get to know someone properly. She may be your mate but that doesn’t make her a good person. Or a sare one. To be honest, I am as shocked as you are that she did something like that. There was absolutely no reason for that. We were just having a more or less friendly conversation. Dean was here just a few minutes before. He can confirm.” being infatuated by Roxy.

“B-but the cook,” the omega pointed her trembling finger at the woman who was also already here, “She heard how you treated me and I was apologising for…”

“She is not a cook,” Riannon rolled her eyes, “She is a chef. And what exactly did you hear, Maggie?”

“I…”, the older lady was bothered with the situation, “Roxanne was apologising and calling herself worthless trash…”
