Claire’s POV
How. Dare. He.
Gideon was going to accuse me of abandoning Leo? After all the hardships he had put on me? After I had been cast out of the pack, and left for dead among the rogues? I didn’t care how much of that he had been responsible for, and how much was Daphne plotting or whispering in his ear.
The fact was, it had all happened.
I had nearly died, and now Gideon wanted to suggest that I had been staying away from Leo on purpose?
I was absolutely seething. Fury oozing out of every pore, as fire pulsed through my veins.
I would never purposefully leave my son. All I had wanted from the very start was to be a part of his life, but I’d never had any choice.
How dare Gideon imply otherwise? How dare he?
That he would even think that made my heart crack down the middle.
