"No need," Victor snapped. "Autumn's back. She'll get jealous." To avoid any misunderstanding, he added, "We're done. Act like we don't know each other."
Rose's eyes widened in shock. Hannah, stunned, said, "Victor, what did you just say?"
He turned to her, urgent. "Hannah, Autumn's not dead. She's right here—see her?"
He pointed to the she-wolf beside him. Her face was pale as she looked at him. "Victor."
"You two must want to catch up," Victor said. "You're best friends, been apart so long. I'll give you space." To Rose, he barked, "Why are you still here?"
Rose froze. Victor's patience was gone. He dialed the enforcers. "Someone's trespassing in my home. Take her away."
He'd been clear with Rose—he didn't love her. If she kept clinging, he wouldn't hold back.
