CHAPTER ONEZARAHis tie is the first thing I notice.Green.Not the silver one my maids prepared to match my dress for the Pack’s annual Moon Festival.During the festival, the Alpha and Luna always wore matching colors. It was one of the oldest traditions in the Pack, a symbol of unity, stability, and harmony blessed by the Moon Goddess herself.I stare at him from across the bedroom mirror. “You’re supposed to wear the silver tie, Alex.”He adjusts his cufflinks without looking at me. “I misplaced it.”“You could have told me earlier.” My fingers smooth unconsciously over the silver silk clinging to my waist. “I would’ve changed.”“That won’t be necessary.”The answer comes too quickly.
