Tm ready, Alpha.
I checked my phone for the umpteenth time for his reply, but it was still the last text I sent to him a couple of minutes ago that was still there. I was already getting frustrated, thinking he’d changed his mind when I heard a car honking from outside.
Though he told me earlier he was going to send someone over to come pick me up, I was hoping he’d change his mind and come pick me by himself. I went to check my reflection one more time in the mirror, and I had to admit that I looked like the queen I was. Long black stoned glittery off–shoulder gown my blonde hair falling freely down my shoulders, a pair of black heels to compliment the cloth, and of course, a black purse to make it perfect.
“Perfect!” I mustered impressively before leaving
room, walking elegantly with my y shoulders held high.

Beta Hector was waiting for me at the parking lot when I arrived there, and 1 rolled my eyes. Why did the Alpha have to send this jerk of all people! 1 hated Hector with every single blood cell in my body, and I never ceased to show him how much I hated him at every chance Lever got, because why not? Besides, he hates me also. Well, that is because he kept telling Alpha Enzo to learn to love that bitch and not me instead. I mean, is he
crazy!
He didn’t wait for me to get to the car before he hopped inside and started it. I wonder how the fuck the alpha was able to convince him to come pick me up.
I went to hop in the backseat without saying a word to him, and the ride to the Dynamite pack began
We spent about two hours on the road, and it was so fucking annoying that I had to be around this jerk for so long, and I couldn’t wait to get out of this place
We finally arrived after what seemed like forever, and I quickly jumped out of the car once he pulled over at the parking lot of the villa where the event was taking place. I thought he was going to go back, but he alighted from the car also
He looked at me, a smirk laced up his lips as he said. “The Alpha changed his mind about the event and couldn’t make it here, so he sent me instead. You still have time to go back to the packhouse if you don’t want to be here”
My jaw dropped to the ground and my eyes narrowed as I looked at him confusingly, wondering what the fuck he was talking about.
“Wh what are you talking about!?” I stuttered, my heart pounding hard against my chest. There is no fucking way Alpha Enzo was not really here, right
“In a nutshell, Alpha Enzo couldn’t make it, so he sent me here. So, are you coming inside with me or not?” He raised an eyebrow, the smirk not leaving his lips, and I huffed as I slowly clutched my fingers tightly around my purse, clenching my jaw tightly.
“You are joking with me, right? My voice shook as I asked him, praying hard he’d say he was teasing me
He looked straight into my eyes, a deep frown settling on his face as he said. “I don’t think we are that close to sharing a joke together. Don’t you think so?”
Yes, he was right. Hector was the last person that’d want to crack a joke with me, and likewise myself. I would never do that bullshit.
“You better find your way home if you don’t want to be here.” He stated coldly before heading toward the door while I was left frozen on the spot. not knowing what to say. My heart wrenched painfully and my eyes stung as tears welled up in them, but I fought back my tears. I spent hours doing this make–up, and I didn’t want to ruin it now. Not for any reason.
it!
A scoff tore through my throat. The Alpha has never cancelled on me for any reason, and now he did it because of that bitch! Is he kidding me?
“He better be joking” I muttered, bringing my phone out of my purse to dral Alpha Enzo’s number, but it was then I saw the text from an unfamiliar number
Aren’t you coming inside? Don’t call or text the Alpha He told me he was busy. I didn’t need anyone to tell me that the text was from Hector. The Alpha must’ve given him any number because I never remembered giving it to him,
“That jerk!” I cursed silently, letting out a huff.
There is no way in hell I would go back to the packhouse after driving over two hours to this place, so I went inside. I was the spokeswoman of the company, so I deserved to be here..

Chapter 17
I fummed when I walked inside and saw many Alphas holding hands with their women. Even if I wouldn’t hold hands with Enzo, at least I would be happy that we were here together. It’s so unfortunate that he wasn’t here. It’s all that bitch’s fault,
1 didn’t have the energy to look around, so I just eye–searched that jerk until I saw him standing with a young man, so I walked up to him, rolling my eyes every second. If I knew I was going to be here with him, I would never have worn this beautiful dress
“Hi!” The young man, who had a strong aura like that of an Alpha, smiled at me when I walked up to them.
“Hi!” I replied to him, forcing a smile.
Hector looked at me, a smirk displayed on his face as he asked. “You came!” He then leaned close and whispered. “I thought you were going to go back from there. No. I mean, I was hoping you would go back there. He straightened his back and smirked again while I rolled my eyes.
“Is she your mate, Hector?” The man asked with a hopeful smile on his face.
“May the moon goddess forbid it Hector was the first to say it before I could, and at that moment, I felt so embarrassed and felt like disappearing from there. For fuck’s sake, he could’ve said no politely, yeah?
I could not deny seeing the look the man gave me. He might be wondering how worse of a person I was for Hector to tell him that. Can he also give it a thought that this jerk could also be spilling shits!

I turned to the man and smiled. “I need to use the restroom I walked away hurriedly without sparing another glance. I should’ve just gone back and never showed up here. This is fucked up.
