All Chapters of Sweetest Mistake: Chapter 11 - Chapter 14

Irene’s Point of ViewI shouldn’t have been sitting there.Every second at that table felt wrong. Like I had stepped into a place that would never accept me… and everyone could see it.Seven alphas. Seven lunas. Fourteen seats meant for power, for status.And then there was me.I wasn’t a luna. I didn’t even have a title worth mentioning. Yet I sat right beside Alpha Arnold, in the place of honor, where every pair of eyes could find me.I would have chosen the dirty kitchen over this.At least there, no one would be watching. No one would be judging.But here?I didn’t need to look up to feel it.The weight of their attention pressed against my skin.Especially hers.Luna Lorraine.I could feel her gaze without meeting it.
