Miranda's POV
Goosebumps litter the entirety of my skin. When my eyes meet Sebastian’s my body shocks to life. A gasp leaves my lips as he catches me and he slows my momentum from the shove.
His touch feels electric on my hips. My fingers dig into his biceps. My system shocks me to life as I gasp. Everything happened so quickly that I can barely process the last twenty seconds.
His face remains as cold and empty as ever, despite his usual hardened features gently softening, and he lets go of my waist. He steps in front of me, shielding me from the Gammas, and I poke my head out from behind him.
“Leave her alone,” his Alpha voice is commanding. It sends chills down my spine. The Gammas look at one another in disbelief. “She’s injured. Why are you kicking her when she is already down?!”
