Dragon King's Human Mate
A man I recognized as Brendon, a Warlock from my clan, stood beside Beth.
"You arranged all this?" I queried, "When?"
"When I overheard your call with Davis about your proposed plan, I decided to intervene. I asked Dave to help me organize a small Warlock Ritual wedding. A modest event where our family could join us in our joy," Alice responded, her smile radiant. "Your intention to propose was incredibly sweet, James, but I wanted to marry you."
The revelation shocked me. Alice, typically soft-spoken and often unsure of herself, had evolved into a bold, resilient woman.
