I slam my hand into the table, making him jump as he swallows.
“But | was only doing what | was commanded to,” he whispers. “I was the one who
helped Annalise stage her kidnapping, and | was the one. The one who made sure

“Lawrence Walton?”
“No.”
“Zade Toussaint?”
“No! Please have mercy on me. | only did what | was told | had no choice.” He pleads.
“Atticus Payne?”
“No, please Alpha.”
Someone from this pack...
“Aran King?”
“No, please.”
“You have sealed your fate, Ethan, the moment you did those wrongs.”
“I had no choice. Please believe me!”
“You could have cto me,” | reply coldly. “Or Sebastian.”
“Jai O'Dell?”
“No, please forgive me, Alpha. They could hurt my family-"
“You have no family, Ethan. Your mother died a few years ago, did she not?” | ask
icily.
“But she was alive...” he mumbles.

Someone | never would question, but the one thing | have learned is anyone can be a traitor, and anyone can

“Tell me, Ethan, do you answer to Agatha King?”
