Gerald POV
The entire ballroom was quiet. Everyone was staring at my cousin Connor as he held Annabelle, stopping her from hitting Aysel.
I was surprised. I never expected Connor to intervene. He always seemed to mind his business even though he has not been around for some years now.
Both of us never got along. I was always being compared to him by Father, which was why I wanted to prove myself when he told me about bringing down Shadow Pack, I had to jump on it. It was my only way to prove myself to him. That was the only way to show him that I wasn't such a useless son.
I knew that Connor would have nothing to do with that. He was always so upright and barely talked to anyone.
No matter what he did, my father was always fond of him, even though I was the Alpha.
Connor trained hims
