The Alpha General's Substitute Bride
Corvin’s laugh floated in the air as he raked a hand through his hair, mussing it even more.
My eyes stayed hooked on that sunny energy he gave off.
Then a shadow fell over us.
I saw it all in slow motion.
The warrior’s eyes flew wide, fixed on a point behind my back, and his smile froze.
Footsteps sounded, and the rhythmic tap of a cane carried across the grass.
I turned, heart thundering, and saw him at the stable’s entrance.
Black hair framing a fierce face, blue eyes slicing between the two of us, almost accusing.
I stepped aside, away from Mr. Corvin, as if I really were being unfaithful.
