The next few days passed with me staying mostly in my room, and not once did Alpha Abel come by. Not that I expected him or anything-but I hadn’t even caught a glimpse of him. Not a shadow,

not his brake lights, nothing.

Today, former Alpha Klaus was scheduled to publicly denounce his title and announce that it had been passed to the new alpha. I sat glued to the television, watching as he addressed the pack. His face was stiff, emotionless-like a man forced into surrendering what he never wanted to give up. But that was his problem, not mine.

When the announcement ended, the pack erupted in cheers. Clearly, this was the news they’d been

waiting for.

I sighed, stood up, stretching out my stiff muscles. Wandering to the window, I looked outside; everyone seemed busy, rushing around with a kind of excited energy.

Footsteps approached my door, and before the knock even came, I called out, “Come in.”

The door opened, and my eyes widened at the sight of two unfamiliar faces. “Hello, Madam Clara,” one of the women greeted politely as she stepped forward. “I am Dan,” she introduced with a

warm smile.

“Nice to meet you, Dan. Is there any issue?” I asked.

She shook her head. “None at all. We’re here to inform you that tomorrow will be your mating

ceremony with the Alpha.”

My eyes stretched even wider. Tomorrow? So soon? But I kept my thoughts to myself and simply

nodded as the words sank in.

He could’ve at least told me himself… but he’s the Alpha. He decides what happens.

The second woman stepped in. “Since it will be a quick ceremony, bring them in,” she said, and several maids entered carrying dresses. My eyes widened.

“You’ll pick the one you want to wear,” Dan added.

I nodded, falling into the rhythm of their pacing.

The sooner it’s done, the sooner it’s settled. Once claimed-there’s no turning back. But I can’t help wondering what he really wants from me. If he considers me too young to give him an heir now,

then what exactly does he plan for me until then?

After trying on the dresses, we finally settled on a cream gown-simple, elegant, nothing extravagant, fitting for a quiet ceremony.

“I’d like to speak with the Beta,” I told Dan before they left. She bowed. “As you wish, Madam,” she said, and they walked out.

I exhaled deeply and sank into a chair, leaning back. Everything was happening too fast-faster than I could say Jack.

Soon, I heard firm footsteps approaching. “Come in,” I called again.

The door opened, and Randy stepped inside. “You sent for me,” he said. He looked good-clean

suit, neat lines, the kind of appearance that showed he’d had a busy day.

“Sorry for bothering you,” I said, and he nodded respectfully.

“How many people will be at the mating ceremony?” I asked.

He sighed and rubbed the back of his head. “Seven.”

“And who are they?” I pressed.

He cleared his throat. “You. The Alpha. Me, obviously. The previous Alpha. Two elders. And Mr.

Sinclair.”
