Couple trouble

Lara couldn't hear any words anymore. Bass Cooper was also confused and scared: what was he supposed to do? Call Nate? Run to Lara and check if she was all right? Was that Ebony woman doing something to her?

He had no clue, so he stood in place for few seconds.

«Hey,» he said while walking away, leaving their Alpha female next to a potentially dangerous stranger.

«Hmm?» she hummed when she saw him. She frowned, knowing very well it was not his fault if things were evolving like that. But how could she not be angry, afraid, and utterly sad?

«Help me,» he said, «I don't know what to do.»
