"I was the one who barred them this morning per the Alpha's order," Avid said, munching on his meat.
"Are you sure that it's really the Alpha's order?" Maria mumbled, but it was loud enough for Avid and Joel to hear. Both of them stopped eating and stared at her in disbelief, which made Maria become self conscious.
"Are you really questioning it?" Avid asked, his voice deepened when he glared at the old woman beside him. "It's an insult to a warrior for not knowing from whom the order came from."
"You are too much, Maria," Joel chimed in, he creased his brows. "You only want to hate the Luna without reason at all."
