Point de vue de Lancelot

En arrivant chez moi, je sentais une oppression dans ma poitrine qui s'intensifiait à chaque marche de l'escalier. J'essayais d'ignorer que mes pensées revenaient sans cesse à Brielle.

Je me répétais qu'elle allait bien, qu'elle se débrouillait toujours seule, mais dès que j'ai franchi le seuil, la servante m'a interpellé dans l'entrée.

« Jeune maître, où est Mlle Brielle ? » demanda-t-elle avec un regard maternel et curieux, les mains crispées sur son tablier.

    Brielle’s POV“You intended to tell me and yet you waited until now to take me by surprise?” Alpha Silverstone asked.The word marriage still hung in the air like something heavy that refused to fall and I was still trying to understand it when the Beta spoke again, calm as ever, like he hadn’t just turned the room upside down.“If that arrangement doesn’t suit,” he said, glancing between Lance and Ria, “there are other options.”‘What other options can there be?’ I asked myself as his eyes shifted and landed in me.“Perhaps a different match would serve better. How about Lancelot and Brielle?”It was as though I didn’t hear anything for a while, all I knew was that my heart started beating fast. I was almost thinking we had been spied on because if not, why would he think to pair me and Lance together.My fingers went numb. The Beta continued, like he was discussing something simple.“It has its advantages. She is already in your household, the adjustment would be easy. It strengthen

    Author's POVSilverstone watched Brielle leave the dining room with panic written all over her face and when Lance went after her without even thinking twice, he was more than surprised.His eyes followed his son until both of them disappeared down the corridor. He looked so easy.At first he couldn't place it. Then slowly and painfully, things began connecting in his head.He remembered noticing the way Lance always defended her, the way he lost his temper whenever Brielle got hurt and the way he hovered around her without even realizing it.Running after her in front of everyone wasn't what he saw coming. Silverstone leaned back slowly in his chair.The look on Lance's face had not been simple attraction and Silverstone had seen that look before years ago.Across the table, the Beta clicked his tongue in annoyance. “That girl is becoming more mannerless by the day.”Silverstone's eyes moved toward him calmly as the Beta wiped his mouth with a napkin before continuing.“She leaves th

    Brielle’s POV“What is that about?” Lancelot asked with his eyes widening in curiosity.I barely had time to sit before the tension came right back and I could feel it in my throat. The Beta didn’t even pretend to be polite anymore.He placed his napkin on his lap, slow and calm, like nothing in the room could rush him, then his eyes slid to Lance.“You’re still young,” he said, almost kindly. “You don’t always know what’s best for you.”Lance stiffened beside me. “If this is still about Brielle, then, i know enough.” He dropped his spoon.The Beta gave a soft smile. “Yes. That confidence usually comes before mistakes.”My fingers tightened under the table. I could feel where this was going and I didn’t like it. The Beta's gaze shifted to me again, and this time he didn’t bother hiding the judgment. “As for you…” he said.I forced myself not to look away. He leaned back slightly, studying me like I was a problem he had already solved.“You seem like trouble.” He pointed out with confi
