Ava's POV
It was a message from the private investigator I hired.
I opened it immediately, scanning every line, every detail, every name. It turned out Charles Joseph was the son of a rich man from the Bloodmoon Pack.
It made a lot of sense now. This was why it was easy for him to lead the bullying against Jasper. I saw the dirt my investigator had dug up on the family. My wolf’s lips curled back in a silent snarl.
Once the payment cleared, I grabbed my keys without delay. If someone thought they could use a child as a pawn… then they were about to learn exactly what kind of wolf they had provoked.
