Inside Threat (Part 2)
Sebastian’s POV
I sat in my office, staring at the documents in front of me but couldn’t read a single word.
The letters blurred before my eyes, and I was completely unable to focus on Pack
business.
My thoughts kept drifting back to Thea at home. Despite having arranged for elite Pack warriors to protect the entire house, I was still worried sick.
What if something happened and I wasn’t by her side? I couldn’t bear the possibility of
losing her again. The last time she was shot, I hadn’t been able to protect her, and I never
wanted to experience that helplessness again.
My phone rang, and I immediately grabbed it. When I saw Graves‘ name flashing, I felt
disappointed. I’d bought Thea a new phone a few days ago, and I’d hoped it was her
calling.
“What is it?” I answered the call irritably.
“What has the great Alpha Ashworth in such a foul mood?” he mocked.
I still didn’t like this bastard, and he certainly didn’t like me, but for Thea and Phoenix’s
sake, we would work together to protect them.
“Did you call because you have something important to say, or just to bitch at me?” I pushed the documents I’d been trying to study aside and leaned back in my chair. “If it’s
the latter, I’m hanging up because I’m not in the mood to deal with you right now.”
He was silent, and for a moment I thought he’d already hung up. It would be just like him.
I pinched the bridge of my nose, exhaling deeply. I’d been working for four hours and was already getting a headache.
“Have you found any leads related to that day?” I asked him.
It was better than just listening to him breathe on the other end. If he was calling, there
had to be a reason.

Inside Threat (Part 2)
His sigh was deep and heavy. That much I could feel.
“No,” he answered, “and that’s exactly what’s bothering me. I’m usually able to find people within days; it’s been months, and we still have no idea who might have attacked her.”
The police and the people I’d sent out had hit one dead end after another in their investigation. I’d hoped working with Graves would lead to a breakthrough.
“It’s starting to piss me off because as long as this person is alive, Thea might never be safe,” I heard growling from his end, followed by something being smashed.
He was right. That was exactly what terrified me so much. That was why I was so reluctant to leave Thea alone at home.
“Any clues? Anything that points us in a direction?” I was practically begging.
