Kapitel 92: Betrayed

~ ZEV ~

Rage burned in Zev's chest as he peered through the leaves to watch Xar inciting the anger and despair of the other males. He shook his head and swore under his breath.

Everything in him pulled back in the direction of the fox hole, where Sasha stood, listening to this, her head probably spinning with questions and her heart either breaking, or going up in flames.

He hadn't had enough time to explain. He needed to explain!

But Xar was so busy riling up the males, he was terrified they would break from the village and go hunting him. Despite the circuitous route he'd taken, they'd find him easily when he was this close.

The safe thing to do would have been to flee to the mountains, use the snow and rivers to hide his scent until everyone had cooled down.
