I shoot him a withering glare, my eyes narrowing with a mix of disdain and suspicion, as memories of Selene's words about him flood my mind.
"Alpha," I murmured, my voice laced with reverence, as I inclined my body in a deep, respectful bow.
"Let me see that-"
"Don't," Axel abruptly intercepted him, snatching the papers from my grasp.
Axel's voice barely escaped his lips as he whispered, "It's mine, actually." His jaw tightened, the muscles flexing as he locked eyes with Xander. A sly smirk played on Xander's lips as he casually slipped his hand into his pocket.
