MIRA
I made it to my car before I let myself feel anything. I got in and closed the door with a loud bang. I sat there with my hands on the steering wheel and my heart pounding too fast. I hated talking to Kai Rivers.
I hated everything he represented. A rich Beta who'd never struggled a day in his life, who never worried about rent or groceries or whether his family would survive the winter. Who never had to choose between medication and heating bills.
An enabler of Alpha abuse. That's what he was. No matter how genuine he seemed, no matter how much pain I'd seen in his eyes when he talked about his mother—
He still stood by Sloane, he still defended her and he still made excuses for her cruelty.
People like him always chose their Alphas over what was right.
But…
But…
Something about the way he'd looked when he mentioned his mom. The rawness in his voice. The vulnerability he'd shown me even though I'd given him nothing but hostility.
