The Beta's Prize
“You know, my commitment ceremony was meant to be in this ballroom?”
“To Azalea? Wow, it must have been a huge event,” she said, her fingers stopping their pleasant threading through my hair as she looked around the space. “It would have been yes, several hundred guests, the whole song and dance.”
As the music stopped so did I, pulling her another step in towards me, so her chest met mine. In my lowest voice, a deep rumbling rasp I tried to make her understand. “Just because it didn’t happen, doesn’t mean I don’t believe in it. As soon as the Beta Battalion completes its work, I want to arrange our Ceremony. If you want to?”
