When Quinn tells me that we can stay in Cam and Veronika’s house for now, I’m not

going to lie, it hurts. I know me and Cici can. come home but Ledger is our mate too.

How would she feel if the roles were reversed. I understand her concerns, especially

with the pups, but it’s as though she doesn’t trust me as her Beta. So, with a heavy

“That is why you are stepping down?”
