Silvertip Mountain What few friends we have

The guest's demeanor changed, and so did Steady's especially with her apology. The Alpha looked back to Ezekiel, taking in his words and his opinion.

I understand about not wanting to talk about your past, and I apologize if I made you feel uncomfortable about it. 

Let's head back to the border, he said. He turned to leave, making sure that the other two were following before he headed out. He almost felt bad about his reaction to her, but he wouldn't let himself quite get there. As Alpha, he had earned his respect, both from his family, and from strangers who came to their borders, or, in Shalon's case, friends he allowed to come inside. While their tour had come to abrupt end, Steady harbored no ill feelings toward Shalon.
