Before Aria could refuse, Lucas had already grabbed her wrist and practically dragged her to his Range Rover.

The car pulled up outside The Night, the territory's most exclusive alphas-only club for elite werewolves. After parking, Lucas circled around to her side and opened the door with a theatrical flourish that once would have made her heart flutter.

Aria gave him a flat, empty stare as she stepped out.

The moment they entered the dimly lit space, Aria's attention was immediately drawn to a familiar figure.

Before she could react, Leila was already gliding across the room with runway precision, following
