Chapter 33 - Stubborn Parents

• With every step he took towards me, I tightened my grip on the knife and fixed my eyes on the spot where his heart should be. But Diego thought it best to spoil my plan by coming in between us, grabbing the alpha by his throat, and throwing him towards the couch. The couch broke in the middle, and the alpha changed into his wolf form, losing control. That was a double loss; not only did I lose the chance to hurt or kill him, but I also lost a good couch to sleep on.

I tried to get up, but my legs didn't seem to work. "I said, go to your room," he shouted, and I felt helpless.
• "I am trying, but I can't feel my legs," I said in desperation. He didn't say anything after that, but slowly, I felt the tension lift from the air, and I could feel my legs again.
