"…I just don't understand why you keep giving into their nonsense," Ellie muttered, his voice low and edged with irritation as he trudged toward the door. Each step was heavy with restrained annoyance. "This better be worth all the noise."
When he opened it, he was met with Eberhard's sharp glare. If eyes could kill, Ellie would have dropped dead. Without a word, the man shoved past him, his shoulder colliding with Ellie's as he strode inside like he owned the place. Nikki followed close behind, head held high like she just won a trophy.
Ellie blinked, unimpressed, then exhaled through his nose as he shut the door behind them with a dull thud. "Sure, make yourselves at home," he muttered dryly.
"Alpha," Eberhard started immediately, his voice carrying that mix of urgency and righteous indignation, "you need to follow me right now. Your mate is committing an abominable act."
