When Selene felt Zephyr's feet touch the ground, she felt a disappointing feeling in her tummy, which she pushed away.
What was wrong with her? She thought to herself as she hurriedly got off his arms.
She distanced herself from him too and hugged herself, trying to avoid looking at him even though she could feel his intense gaze on her.
"The Alpha is back!" Someone cried out, and Selene turned her attention to the sight before them.
There was a fire burning and soldiers all sprawled and scattered in different locations. Selene was trying to mark out faces when someone rushed towards her.
It was Pen. He took Selene's hands in his and dropped to the ground.
"Thank you, My Lady. Thank you, My Lady, for saving my life!" he cried out as he sobbed into her hands. "Thank the goddess that the venom did not kill you! Thank you for risking your life for mine."
