I stand by the long table, the air thick with the scent of gourmet h o rs d’oeuvres and sparkling wine. Idly,
I pick up a tiny pastry, turning it this way and that before setting it back on the plate.
As if to steel my nerves and try not to think about what Karl is saying to Gianna in the other room, I’m
arranging the treats into some semblance of symmetry when a familiar voice that I haven’t heard in
years suddenly pulls me away from my thoughts.
“Abby, darling! It’s so good to see you again!”
I turn to find Rebecca, the wife of one of the Betas, her face glowing with genuine delight. I flash a
smile, the corners of my lips straining just a bit.
“Sarah, it’s been too long! How have you been?”
She glides over, her high heels clicking against the polished floor. “Oh, you know, busy with pack life,
community events, all that jazz. But never mind me; look at you! You’re stunning as ever!”

we’ve reconciled in that regard, but not in a romantic sense.”
Sarah looks a bit disappointed, but understanding at the same time. “Ah, I see. Well, either way, I’m
glad he made that announcement tonight. I’ll admit, I was a bit worried when I saw you—thinking that
our Alpha was getting back with a cheater and all that—but to find out that it was all just a mistake…”
Caught off guard, I hesitate before answering. “Yes, it was a mistake. I hope that the word gets out.”
