章 37: Chapter 37 : Battle Cry

~VANNIE~

Sinclair turned sharply to see who had called his name, and Vannie had a feeling she epically messed up.

"I'm sorry," she said, stopping in her tracks as she saw the group of wolves with their teeth bared towards the gate. This was the last thing she'd be expecting to see when she decided to follow Sin. "I could feel the danger coming. After you left. I came to warn you—"

He came closer to her, leaving the pack he commanded. "How did you find me?"

"I followed your scent," she whispered, wondering if now would be a good moment to find some hole to burrow into.

"You ran here? Without accompaniment? From the f*cking palace? After I told you there was a war coming and that you should stay in your chambers?"

She'd done so many horrible things to Sinclair, but coming here seemed to be the straw that broke the camel's back, because he was glaring at her. He'd never glared at her. It was a rather disconcerting, heartbreaking thing to experience.

And she wanted to cry again.
