He chuckled. “That’s the reason why Nathan is no longer my right-hand Beta really. Though since he came from a prestigious Beta family, he remains as a White Woods Pack’s Beta.”
With my brother’s explanation, I know he’s not only concerned for me. He’s also worried for the pack now that I decided to marry another Alpha from another pack even when I’m engaged to a Beta from our pack.
Well, not anymore.
“Does your decision have to do with Shannon Price’s return? I’ve heard about it and I’m kind of glad I’m not around to see the drama unfolds. You know how that woman likes to stir drama wherever she goes.”
I forced a smile, despite the bitterness rising in my throat. “Maybe. But...this is my decision. I’ve just figured it out and remember Mother and Father’s late wishes to be in alliance with the Black Stone Pack. I’m going to get married this year anyway, so does it matter if it’s not to Beta Nathan?”
“You’ve been with him for seven years, Morganne. I think it does matter,” he breathed.
I sighed, “Not anymore, Alpha. I’ve decided I will prioritize my pack over my own heart.”
