The Beta’s Unwilling Bride
“I figured you’d stay away for good soon.”
I stop in my tracks. No way I am letting her see me like I’m afraid of her. “What do you want, Selene?”
She chuckles, a mocking sound. “Games? Oh, honey, this isn’t something serious. This is reality. And in reality, I’m married to Alaric now. That’s right, married. As in, bound by vows, by the pack’s traditions, by everything that matters in our world.” She holds up her left hand, wiggling her fingers so the ring catches the fading light. It’s a massive thing, a gold band embedded with a rare moonstone that glows faintly, like it’s alive with werewolf magic.
