Chapter 8 AURORA Evelyn made her way up the stairs , practically shoving the pack guards out of the way .

Connall Montague saw her coming and sighed .

Please excuse me .

Id rather not ruin my night by having to speak with a mongrel from Hundred Lakes .

Shes my fiancé , Dane growled .

The old man shook his head .

You know my history with them .

I will never accept her into our pack or our family .

He left .

Evelyn stomped up the stairs in her candy pink and crystal designer stilettos .

I had no problem with things being pink and glittery feminine things are beautiful , after all .

But Evelyn wore her femininity like a weapon to use against other women , and I hated that .

My eyes went to Dane .

His whole body had gone tense , the muscles of his chiseled jaw flexing .

I was surprised .

That look was one he used to get when he was about to face a challenger , or when he had to face down his Chapter 8 2/5 greatest rival : the Alpha of the Fall Line Pack , Holden Coleridge .

To be this tense when his own fiancé approached him meant there was trouble in paradise .

I thought you were going to wait for me near the door , Evelyn pouted , slinking up to him .

She pressed her body into his side and pouted up at him .

I told you I was coming twenty minutes late so I could make an entrance and people could take pictures , and you ruined it .

Then she turned on me .

Even though shed shrieked when she first saw me , now she had composed herself .

She put her left hand on Danes shoulder , wiggling her fingers so the massive diamond on her ring finger glittered .

Forgive me , Ann .
