Chapter 22

GRAYSON

Sienna was gone.I had to get her back,somehow.

But that was going to be damn difficult with my pack growling at her and looking at her like freshmeat.

Their reaction didn’t surprise me, but I had hoped for something different. Acceptance. Willingness to at least tolerate her until they got to know the sweet, sassy Fae she was. So unlike the destructive ones they’d either heard about orexperienced.

No suchluck.

For now, I had to keep an eye on her because Kallan was still out there and he could destroy her, my sweet Sienna who wanted to use her power only for good. At work, she would be safe. I’d hired a mercenary to watch overher.

Somehow, I had to convince my people Sienna would not harmthem.

When they reacted like that, something inside me died as well. I saw her face and her fear, quickly shuttered by that blank expression she wears to hide her realemotions.

Inside, I felt resignation. My people were not going to accept a FionnFae.

And that was the biggest blow of all – because if they refused to accept her, what would they do if they discovered thetruth?

Best to keep it hidden, keep them thinking all waswell.

All wasfine.

I am wolf. I am alpha and I will control thepack.

And fight to keep themsafe.

Even when my heart is breakinginside.
