Contract With Alpha Logan

Chapter 92

Katy POV

During the dinner, I noticed how Luce would shoot a glare towards me now and then. Her mother, Queen Cassie, didn’t even look at me once and continued to give more attention to other candidates. The only thing that I wasn’t able to understand was why she was giving preference to others over me even though she knew I was Ace’s mate. How could she hate me so much without knowing me

at all?

My eyes locked with my mate, and he winked at me. Blood rushed to my cheeks, and I winked back. He let out a quiet laugh.

The table was a huge sixteen–seater. We were all sitting according to our ranks. The high–ranking members sat at the table as the others had dinner outside. Since I belonged to an alpha bloodline, I sat closer to the king and the queen, but Luce ensured I sat opposite to Ace.

Ace was crammed between Rebecca and her friend Diana, another Alpha’s daughter, which was odd because he was supposed to be sitting on the right of Alpha Soren. They were both making deliberate attempts to touch him, disguising it as accidental or playful banter. I imagined myself breaking the bones of their wrists. Ara growled inside me, always at the edge, hating to see so many girls

around him.

I directed my gaze to the clear soup in front of me when suddenly the king said, “Miss Katy, I’ve heard a lot about Luna Kylie. Unfortunately, I wasn’t present for the voting that day in the High Council, but I heard she had a lot of support. Isn’t it?”

His question caught me off–guard, but placing my spoon down, I replied softly, “Yes, Alpha Soren. The law she championed has left a lasting impact on several Lunas in the werewolf community.”

“So I’ve heard,” he said with a nod, piking up a glass of wine.
