Opening the door, a flower bouquet of green and white lisianthus lay on my doorstep.
After years of being his Luna, I received a lisianthus from the Alpha for the first time. Curious, I grabbed the card attached to the sweet-smelling flowers, glimpsing a note written a bit messy: [Sorry.]
Alpha Austin's usual apology was to shower me with flowers. Every time we argued, Alpha would send me gifts for reconciliation. As naive as I was, I would accept them wholeheartedly and act as if nothing had transpired.
However, I was no longer taken in by this old trick. Well, not anymore.
A sudden mind link from Alpha Austin snapped me back from reality and made me push the flowers aside.
"Calista, Zora invites us for dinner as a way of thanking me for saving her the night of the attack. I'm waiting for you here outside," he said, calm and composed.
Right. He reminded me again how he focused on Zora, saving her when the whole pack was devastated by flames. At the same time, he entrusted me with Beta Colter.
That slowly left me heartbroken, feeling like my heart was crumbling into tiny pieces, and it led us to have silent treatment for three days now.
