LEXIE
The moment the Beta and Gamma disappeared with Zelda, I grabbed Willow by the wrist.
“Come on.”
“Lexie, what are you—”
I didn’t let her finish.
I dragged her toward our bedroom, shoved the door closed behind us, and locked it.
Only then did I turn to face her.
“I have an idea.”
Willow stared at me.
Judging by the expression on her face, she wasn’t sure whether to be excited or terrified.
“O…kay…”
“I know how we can get a leg up in this hellhole.”
Her eyebrows pulled together.
“What do you mean?”
I grinned.
“We need protection.”
Willow’s expression immediately became wary.
“Protection from who?”
“Everyone.”
I stepped closer, lowering my voice.
“If we have a powerful werewolf with rank looking out for us, nobody is going to mess with us. They won’t dare.”
