Thane storms off. I’m shocked that I didn't see it before. It makes so much sense now. Of course she wouldn't tell us who she was running from: it’s us. All she heard from the moment we met is how much we hate her, how much she would suffer when we found her. All the secrets she kept are suddenly so clear. Everything is falling into place. I am stunned, and Thane is murderous. Climbing the stairs, I follow him upstairs.
It also explains Alpha Jake's bizarre reaction to her. Harlow was originally his. He bought her first.
"Thane," I call out behind him.
"She lied," is all he says before slamming the bedroom door in my face when I finally catch up to him.
"Thane, we can't just leave her to fend for herself! She’s our mate!" I yell at him through the door. I hear him growl before
