Chapter 67

**Nathan’s POV**

His eyes locked onto mine with an intensity that was both unsettling and intriguing. Was he attempting to muster courage, or was he simply being reckless?

My wolf stirred within me, the primal instinct urging me to assess him, to gauge his resolve.

Peter smirked, a condescending tilt to his lips. “You pursued me with such fervor, Alpha Nathan. Was it merely to drag Aria back into your fold?”

He stood his ground, refusing to flinch or retreat.

The audacity! He dared to utter her name as if he had any claim to it.

The atmosphere in the room froze, thickening with tension.
