Chapter 418: First Couple Fight

Violet and Griffin didn’t exactly have the time to talk. Not when Oscar, Griffin’s Beta, made his appearance and handed her phone to her. Alaric was the one who found it at Asher’s place and passed it to him to give to her.

"Where is Alaric now?" Violet asked after several failed attempts to reach her lightning prince. Each of her calls went straight to voicemail.

"The last time he was seen was at the hospital with Asher. No one’s spotted him since," Oscar replied.

"My call’s not going through either," Griffin said, lowering his phone with a frown.

Just like her, he’d only just gotten his phone back. Griffin had been using an alternative while they were at the East Pack, while Violet had been left with none. And though he had always let her use his whenever she needed it, having her own again felt reliving. As small as it seemed, it reminded her she was still her own person and not just someone’s mate, tethered to their convenience.

Violet glanced at Griffin, her voice soft with worry. "Do you think he’s safe, wherever he is?"

"If he’s hiding intentionally," Griffin said, "then he’s good."

Oscar cleared his throat. "The rest of the pack members here at school can’t wait to be officially introduced to Luna Violet."

"I’m Violet. Not Luna," she corrected him with a flat tone .

"You already are. Sooner or later, you’ll embrace the title, Luna."

Violet rolled her eyes while Griffin shot Oscar a look that clearly said drop it. His mate had been through enough. She didn’t need more roles forced onto her especially ones she wasn’t ready for.

"About Alaric," Oscar continued, "if he’s really that important, I can try to track him. Discreetly." The way he said it hinted he knew more than he was letting on.

Violet and Griffin exchanged a look. She didn’t have to speak, her eyes were already pleading.
