Blood And Silver:Rise of the Alpha’s Rejected Mate

Chapter 6 AURORA Trajan pulled me into the crowd , temporarily hiding us .

I tore my eyes from Dane .

Do we need to leave ? he growled low in my ear .

My heart was fluttering , but I forced my spine straight .

No.

Let him come to me .

There was a crowd of wolves around him , gorgeous and dangerous and glittering and whispering about what hed done .

He was on his feet , striding my way .

But every wolf here wanted to speak to the powerful Alpha of Blue Ridge , and that slowed him down .

I pressed a hand to my chest .

Would he kill me in front of all these people ? Trajan wouldnt make it easy .

Curse my grandmother for making this the only way I could become Luna .

Oh , my goddess .

Isnt that Ann Reed ? someone whispered .

Id caught their attention , now .

One muttered , Is she crawling back to Dane ? During the gala ? Gold digger , came another whisper .

Chapter 6 2/6 Despite the way my heart was beating against my ribs , a smile quirked one corner of my mouth .

Once , that kind of accusation wouldve hurt .

Now , the thought that I might need Dane for his money was ridiculous .

I had more money than most of these wolves could dream of .

A young woman in a frilly white dress flounced up to me .

In a grating voice , she said , Is it true , wolfless ? The crowd gasped at her insult , but that just egged her on .

Dane threw your ass out all those years ago and now youre coming crawling back to him ? I raised an eyebrow , unaffected by her insult .

Constantly aware that Dane was drawing closer .

Trajan ? He leaned down near my ear and whispered , Amy Miller , Ms.

DeVere .

A lesser member of the Hundred Lakes Pack .

Excuse me ! Ill show you lesser ! Amy Miller shrilled .

a rogue ! Aurora DeVere is

Trajan growled .
