CHAPTER 71
~Snow’s POV~
Right from when Zara ventured into the bathroom, my heart had been elated since then. While bathing, I couldn’t help but recall the feel of her hands on my body and how it made Glacier happy.
Just the thought alone brought a raging hard–on and I
swallowed.
I managed to school my thoughts, keeping my mind. completely in the moment and took my bath in the
shower.
I came out to meet her already dressed and waiting. I did too, pulling on a simple outfit.
Once we were done in the room, we made our way to the dining room, all the while my eyes remained glued to her shapely figure and ass, recalling how they bounced each time I thrust into her.
I held back a chuckle at the thought and led the way to

the diner to keep my mind sane.
Everyone was shocked by our hickeys. I couldn’t say shocked, to be precise, because we were loud. I made sure of it. So intrigued could go for it.
I watched Zara, my lips curling into a subtle smile. She looked flustered, but even with her cheeks flushed and
her eyes wide with embarrassment, she was…
breathtaking.
I forced myself to keep that thought in check, shaking off the lingering warmth that stirred in my chest.
Last night had been something. But I wasn’t about to ‘overthink it. It had been about the full moon–her
heat.
I was only helping her through that. Nothing more. Nothing… deeper.
And yet, as I sat there, stealing glances at her, I couldn’t help but remember the way she had looked at me, the way her body responded to mine and how I had responded to her.
My fingers tingled just from the memory of touching her skin and the way her soft moans had filled the
room

It was simply primal instinct due to the full moon. That
was it.
“You keep telling yourself that.” Glacier’s voice echoed in my mind like the smug bastard he was.
“Shut up,” I snapped mentally, trying to push him back into the recesses of my mind.
“If last night was all due to the full moon and you were helping to relieve her heat, what about this morning? Was that all about being a dutiful husband too?” a
His words struck like a punch.
“It was just to make sure nothing was affecting her again,” I lied, and I knew Glacier could sense it.
“Sure. Keep pretending, Snow,” he taunted amusingly. “Just remember, you can’t lie to me. I’m you, remember? And trust me, you wanted her so much this morning, full moon or not.”
I growled under my breath, trying to force Glacier back down. The truth was, I wasn’t sure what had happened this morning. Hell, I wasn’t even sure what happened last night beyond the obvious.
It was supposed to be a one–time thing–a release. But

now, everything felt… different. And the worst part was, I didn’t know what to do with that.
With a deep breath, I turned my attention back to the room, trying to shake off the thoughts swirling in my
head.
My mother, Luna Star, watched me closely, a knowing smile on her lips, and even though she didn’t say anything, I could feel her approval.
Zara’s cheeks were still flushed from the earlier
teasing, but she was doing her best to stay composed. I admired that. She always had a strength about her,
, even in the most awkward situations.
But then Aira’s voice cut through the room, bringing all the attention back to her.
“You’re lucky to have someone,” she said, her eyes downcast, her voice barely above a whisper.
The room grew quiet and I saw the shift in Tempest’s expression immediately. Her face hardened, her jaw clenching as her fists curled on the table.
“If you gave up on that jerk of a mate, you’d have found someone deserving of you,” Tempest snapped, her voice filled with frustration.

Aira’s face crumpled slightly and the sadness in her eyes deepened as she tried to defend that bastard. “He’s not a jerk. He was just… scared.” Her voice trembled, and I could see the battle she was fighting within herself. She had always been too kind, too
forgiving.
As good as that trait was, it became her doom with her
mate.
Tempest, however, had no such mercy. Being the
opposite of her sister, her temper was something that could pull down a pack.
. “Scared?!” she shouted, her fist slamming onto the
table, making the dishes rattle. “That jerk already did enough! Look at what he put you through!”
Aira’s lips quivered, but no words came out. I could see the pain etched across her face, and it took everything in me not to jump in.
I clenched my jaw, staying silent as the tension in the room spiked to unbearable levels. I knew Tempest cared and she needed to let out her pain at seeing her
twin suffer.
I did not know how much she knew of what happened

recently but if she had know, I know there was no way she’d take it lying down without causing damage.
It was a miracle how she hadn’t burnt his pack to the ground till now. I guess my father’s leash on her was still as strong.
Tempest stood abruptly, her entire body shaking. “I will not sit here and let you defend him again! He rejected you, humiliated you, almost killed your son and you still have the nerve to protect him?” 2
Aira’s tears welled up, her voice small as she whispered, “Tempest, stop-”
““No! I won’t stop!” Tempest’s voice cracked with fury.
Unable to stay silent any longer, I tried intervening but it backfired as Tempest continued, ignoring how Summer’s aura seeped out and the pressure it had on the attendants standing at the side of the dining room.
Left with no choice, Aira let out her wolf’s aura, sending a sickening dread and sadness everywhere.
My eyes glowed red. Glacier immediately stepped up to challenge both ladies and keep them in check. “Aira, control Autumn. This is not the place for this.”
71 His Thought:
“No. You tell her, Snow. She doesn’t understand.”
“I don’t?!” Tempest hollered.
They went at it, my head already banging from their outburst. How did my parents not bother intervening?
