Eleanor’s eyes sparkled with delight, and she showered him with thanks, her gaze toward me now tinged with something else. The guests around us began whispering among themselves.

Many knew that Alpha Hubert of Shadow Pack and Alpha Richard of Eclipse Pack had been close friends for over a century. But over a decade ago, for reasons unknown, Hubert had suddenly retired and led Shadow Pack into the remote, frozen land of Frostmoore.

Pack.

I was satisfied.

Felix’s gesture had firmly cemented my position as a lowly Omega who wasn’t valued by Shadow Pack.

Eleanor, ever the opportunist, would surely recognize the significance of her grandfather’s lavish gifts. Once she realizes I’m the Alpha of Shadow Pack, she’ll know I won’t be going anywhere.
