1 had been seated in my office, papers, and files strewn all around the table and a few lying on the floor as well.

I had decided to drown myself in work just like I would work before. The innocent looking girl in my house was not going to

turn me soft.

I was spending some time thinking about her, fantasizing about her and thankfully, I realized it soon enough.

The ball could happen and she could even find a mate for all I cared, she was not going to matter to me.

“But then why are you avoiding her if she doesn’t mean anything to you?” least, my Lycan, asked in my head.

I mentally rolled my eyes at him and replied. “Because I am working. And it needs concentration.”

He chuckled, “At least you agreed that she distracts you.”

I did not wish to argue with Beast so I didn’t bother replying and instead focussed on the file in front of me.

I thought of having a meeting with all the alphas again and enforcing a few new rules since everybody would be around.

But it looked like nobody wanted to let me work in peace. The door of my office flew open and Drusilla was standing with her hands on her hips, glaring at me.

“How rude of the host to not attend the event!!” she huffed and came forward.

I flipped a page of the file without looking up at her. “I am not the host and it is not my event. Close the door on your way

out.”

That only angered her more as she flared her nostrils and came up to me and plucked the file out of my hands.

“Get up, now!!”

I let out a sigh. “Dru, I am working-”

She shook her head, “You work 24 by 7. Now, I want you to get up and come with me outside right now. Everybody is asking for you.”

If they find their mates, nobody would bother
