Chapter 41: He Knew

Scarlett’s POV

​Alpha Ethan didn’t even blink at Liam’s outburst. He slowly tilted his head, his expression remaining composed.

​"You did call me," Ethan admitted, his voice terrifyingly calm. "You pleaded. You begged. And I told you I was too busy. Do you remember that part, Liam?"

​"I went for myself," Ethan countered, his eyes flashing with annoyance. "The moment I ended that call, your request meant nothing to me. Anything I did after that..."
