Althea shoved her so hard that she staggered back.
"It's not like that." Alexis caught herself on her foot. "This is a misunderstanding." It wasn't that she was afraid of Althea, but it was the fact that she was someone Keelion would probably make her Luna. In no way was it a good idea to get into trouble with this woman.
Keelion wouldn't always save her, he'd made that clear to her, and she wasn't about to put him in that situa—
Althea, a bit taller than her, snatched her by the hair, pulling her close enough that she could hear her whisper.
"If I ever see you around Keelion again," she began threateningly. "Or catch you in his room again, I'll kill you. And when I do, no one will bother about you, I'm sure you know that. Mark my words!"
She shoved her, and Alexis, who was breathing heavily, lifted her head, her breath instantly stuck in her throat at the sight of Keelion who stood behind Althea, hand stuffed into the pockets of his pants.
