Archie's POV
Upon hearing Stephenie's words, this time my wolf, instead of waiting for me to get angry, became furious on its own.
Ever since it heard Shaunda say that Alisha was going to marry Louie, it had been uncharacteristically silent. It curled up in the bay, indifferent to whatever was happening outside.
But this time, Stephenie's words clearly infuriated it. It burst out of the bay on its own, manifested next to me, and roared angrily at Stephenie. Its sharp teeth gleamed, and its claws fiercely dug into the ground, leaving terrifying marks.
Stephenie, startled by the sudden appearance of my wolf, screamed and retreated. My wolf even took two threatening steps forward, its expression fiercely hostile, seemingly intending to tear Stephenie apart and swallow her.
Stephenie fell to the ground in fear, waving her handbag and shouting, "Get away, you monster!"
