Dante’s POV
The next morning, I woke up and looked at the windows as they let in sunlight. I could already feel the weight of the day on me.
Being Alpha meant making decisions. Every day someone wanted something. Someone needed help. Someone was mad. Someone was scared.
I showered and dressed and headed down the long hallway to the throne room. My guards gave me a nod as they opened the doors for me.
I felt like a zombie doing this move over and over again. The only unpredictable thing about my life was the fact that I had a human with me.
That was when I remembered I had someone named Selene with me.
I almost laughed. She was different. Human. Feeble. Weak.
The thought of my baby growing within her made me smile but also scared me. What had we created? How was this possible?
I stood before the hall as the guards bowed to me and opened the double doors as I entered.
Inside, the elders were already seated. They numbered five. Old, wise, and always watching.
