“No!” Donnie’s voice resonated firmly, and a part of me was hurt but it wasn’t my thing to back down. I had it in mind that I would do all it takes to convince her.

Tension filled the air as I posed the question, seeking to unravel the layers of Donnie’s hesitancy.

“You don’t have to raise your voice at me, Sidonnie. I’m asking for your opinion and not forcing you. You know I could have just ordered you as an Alpha to do my bidding. By then, you’ll have no choice,” I asserted, reminding her of the power dynamics at play.
