Rejected by my mate, Claimed by Alpha Ryder
I scanned the crowd for the one who had quietly captured my attention.
My eyes finally landed on her.
Doris.
She stood at a distance, almost invisible, quietly observing everything.
The moment our eyes met, she quickly looked away, hands tightening at her sides.
No one dared meet my gaze.
“I, Alpha Ryder Stone, take Doris Charles as my Luna and chosen mate of the Moonpack,” I declared.
Silence fell immediately. Every whisper, every movement froze as the crowd processed what had just been announced.
I walked toward her, ignoring the murmurs and whispers. Doris’s eyes widened, and instinctively she covered her ears, shaking her head as if she’d misunderstood.
