Chapter 27 The Act Of Rebellion

And despite wanting to choke the air out of her husband, the alpha king, just for breathing around her most times, she didn’t. She had kept her heart in check and remained in control, even though it seemed impossible. Edward would want her to.
• These past few days had been peaceful between them, but she didn’t forget what he did to Edward.
