CHAPTER 73
~Snow's POV~
"You are the fiercest warrior I know. You don't need him, and neither does Storm. He has us—he has Snow. That boy is going to be a great alpha because of you, not because of some coward who is too afraid of your family."
I felt a knot tighten in my chest as I watched them. Tempest's words hit harder than I expected, and I knew she was right.
Storm had everything he needed—he had all of us—but watching Aira, seeing the depth of her pain, I understood why she struggled to let go.
I sighed, about to leave, to give them their privacy when Tempest's voice suddenly called out. "Snow!"
I stopped, cursing under my breath before turning to face them. Keeping my shoulders straight, I smiled at them.
