Chapter 0015

Ella POV

Alexander’s bright eyes were fixed on me, and a smile was pulling at his lips. He was obviously trying to get a rise out of me, and it was working.

He was also making David angry, which was a bonus.

“I’m not the only one that’s happily in love, though, am I? Congratulations again on your engagement,” Alexander added, looking at David.

David snorted in response and tightened his grip on me.

I could still feel myself blushing as David pulled me away. He must have seen how red my face was and thought it was from anger.

“Don’t listen to him, Ella. No matter what he says, he’ll never find a more suitable Luna than you,” David said softly. For a moment, I thought he was trying to comfort me, but then he added, “After all, you’re the only daughter of one of the most promising packs.”

I remembered him making comments like that to me in the past, and I had taken them as compliments. But now I could see just how disgusting his thoughts about me really were. He saw me as nothing but a way to gain power. I was like a trophy to him, not a person.

I tried to pull away from his grip, but he looped his arm around mine and kept me close. I had to remind myself why I was here. This was supposed to be our big engagement dinner.

I had to play the part of the lovesick fiance.

I was walking towards our table, but David suddenly moved to the right, pulling me with him. I could see why he had changed direction. The Alpha of the Red Oak pack and lus Luna were sitting at a table nearby.
