“A privileged prick then,” Jack snorted, earning a scowl from Pax, that instantly turned to fear when he met the wolf’s hard gaze.

“What happened?” I asked instead, hoping to keep Pax talking. Not the best idea I’d ever had. My blood was boiling.

And their society thought it was acceptable?!

What. The. FUCK?!

“He was trying to rape your sister?!” I asked bluntly, hoping that my voice came out as soft as I was trying to force it to be. He nodded almost shamefully.

“I know I should have let him settle his needs, but---” he whined as if he’d been the one to do something wrong.
