“Since when did you get to start asking me questions, Helena?” she snapped, her gaze filled with hatred.
That long, hard stare dug into me like she already suspected something was off.
My hands felt clammy, and my heart thudded against my ribs.
I swallowed.
I knew this would come eventually.
“Don’t think I’ll forget our grudge just because you’re married to the Alpha now,” she said, turning her back.
I felt my stomach knot up. Of course Lauren wouldn’t let that go so easily.
But that limp.
I just couldn't overlook it.
Not at this point.
“I was just curious about your limping,” I blurted, my voice a bit too fast.
She spun back around and shot me a death stare. “Learn to mind your business, Helena.” She pointed a finger at me before turning away again.
That was it.
