The Vanished Luna
"Alpha, that little sister-in-law of yours… the newly matured she-wolf, Zoe. How did she taste?"
Adrian's low, suggestive chuckle reached my ears, quiet yet piercingly clear.
He replied in the same ancient language.
"You know a freshly ripened pepper? Hot, with a real kick."
His palm was still caressing my waist, yet his gaze had drifted elsewhere.
"Just keep it quiet. If my Luna finds out, it's all over."
The other Betas let out knowing chuckles, raising their glasses in a silent promise to keep his secret.
But a chill washed over me, and my inner wolf went still, as if it had died.
