Contractually Yours, Alpha by Giftemmy

Chapter Two Hundred and Seven

I found her jealousy amusing.

"You're jealous, aren't you?"

"Why wouldn't I be? Sure, she might be a good person, but let's not forget that you two used to have sex. I have every right to feel insecure, especially with the way she kept looking at you..." Kaida trailed off.

I watched her, feeling unworthy. She had been faithful to me, even when we had broken things up, but I was stupid enough to think being with other women could take my mind off her.

Kaida ran her hands through her thick black hair. "I feel like an insecure fool. I'm really sorry."

"You have nothing to apologize for."

She was staring at something, and I followed her gaze to Lara, who was kissing a dark-skinned guy. I figured that had to be her mate.

I wasn't much for making speeches, but unfortunately, it came with the role.

I stepped up to the platform, and the hall instantly fell silent.

"I want to welcome everyone to the Nightshade Pack's Annual Mate Ball. And of course, congratulations to those who've found their... mates."

The pack applauded.
