Third-Person POV:
Chris had never imagined that the Moon Goddess would be so generous to him.
He was just a warrior in the Blackthorn pack. A damn good one, but still a warrior. He had fought beside his Alpha for years, defended their borders, and helped stop several attacks that could have cost the pack hundreds of lives.
He was proud of what he’d achieved, but he’d never expected anything extraordinary when it came to finding his mate. In fact, he’d already prepared himself for the possibility of being mated to an Omega. As long as she was his fated mate, he would accept her. 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝓮𝒘𝙚𝙗𝒏𝙤𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝒐𝙢
But Angela Westwood? The Alpha’s daughter? Chris could hardly believe his luck.
Not only was Angela one of the most beautiful women in the pack, but she was also the only surviving child of Alpha Cedric Westwood.
And everyone knew what that meant. Whoever married Angela would have a chance to become the next Alpha.
Chris had gone from expecting an ordinary life with his mate to possibly inheriting the entire pack. All in a single evening. He could barely contain his excitement.
Angela seemed equally pleased. Her cheeks had been pink ever since they’d discovered their bond, and she hadn’t stopped smiling at him.
“Come,” she said, taking his hand. “I want Father to meet you.”
Chris followed her through the packhouse, trying to decide what he should say to Alpha Cedric. He’d stood before the man countless times as a warrior, but this was different. Today, he wasn’t reporting for duty.
He was about to introduce himself as the mate of his only daughter. Angela knocked on the study door.
“Come in,” a deep voice answered. She opened it and led Chris inside.
Alpha Cedric was sitting behind his desk, going through some documents. He looked up when they entered, his attention moving from his daughter to the warrior standing beside her.
“Father!” Angela announced, unable to hide her excitement. “I found my fated mate!”
Cedric put down the document. “Is that so?”
“Yes!” She glanced at Chris, smiling shyly. “It’s Chris. The Moon Goddess chose him for me.”
Chris straightened immediately. “Alpha Cedric,” he greeted respectfully.
For a few seconds, the older man said nothing. Then he pushed his chair back and rose to his feet.
“All right, Angel,” he said, using the nickname he’d given his daughter when she was little. “Why don’t you go outside for a while? I’d like to speak to Chris alone.”
Angela looked between them. “Father…”
“Don’t worry, sweetheart. I only want to have a little chat with him.” She nodded, although she seemed reluctant to leave so soon.
Before stepping out, she turned to Chris and gave him a nervous smile. Chris returned it, feeling ridiculously pleased with himself.
The door closed behind her, leaving the two men alone in the study.

Angela could barely contain her excitement as she hurried down the corridor in search of Vikki. She found her arranging fresh flowers in one of the sitting rooms.
