asks the young man. "Yes. I present to you the son-in-law of the Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Dinam. He will assist you in the technical department. I am counting on you to teach him a lot. Said the HRD to him." Ethan looks at me, I can't decipher that look. He reaches out his hand to me and says "Are you the famous Dinam, Maïeil's husband?! Welcome home!" He was smiling in the least sympathetic way as he moved my hand in his. I also let out a nervous smile. What does he mean to me by this smile?

“Let’s go home and you can tell me all about them.” We turned to walk to where the driver Clara insisted on waited at the curb. Then a voice called out. “Maya? Maya Surman? Is that you?” The voice was familiar in a way that tugged at a much older, simpler part of my brain. I turned. A man was walking toward me, a friendly, confused smile on his face. He was tall, with kind eyes and dark hair that had a few threads of gray. He wore a simple, well-fitted button-down and chinos. He looked… normal. Warm. Real.

The car stopped and a man in dark clothes opened my door before I had even registered we've arrived, and I stepped out onto the gravel and stood completely still, trying very hard not to look as overwhelmed as I felt.

At the wedding, when I found out Evan had that magical system, something inside me awakened too. All of a sudden, I could see where all the werewolves' lives were supposed to go—including mine, Evan's, and Julia's. I realized I was just a passerby in Evan's life, no one important.

Could you play the next part of the video and zoom in on the man's face, please? The staff did what I asked. When the picture stopped, I said slowly, "This isn't my dad, Jethro. It's my personal driver, Daniel Chapman."

the man said seductively. The voice came over the line again, “Arya, hold on I’m coming.”

Eric crafted those lies without a trace of guilt. "It's okay. Alpha Ryder said he'd be picking me up later." I pretended to be thoughtful. "Alpha Ryder is coming?" The three of them looked panicked. "Yeah!" I flashed a delighted smile. "He said he'd arrange a mate bonding ceremony for me." Dead silence instantly filled the air.

There's no bravado in it, just the hard edge of promise. There's work to do. I turn to Harris through my phone one last time for the evening: "Keep me informed. If anything, anything moves, call me first." Then I step back into the manor, the door closing behind me.
