“I don’t feel comfortable going to this thing without you,” I pouted, peering up at Enzo with a frown.

He bent and kissed me gently on the lips, placing both his hands on my shoulders.

“I know… I don’t like it either. But if I went, it would make Alpha Jonathan suspicious and that’s the last thing we need right now.”

I sighed, knowing he was right.

“But Ethan will be there if anything happens,” he reminded me. “Ethan should already be there actually. I think he drove in with your father.”

I stepped into his open embrace and buried my face in his chest, not caring if I ruined the little bit of makeup that was on my face, which I allowed Brianna to do.

“Lila, are you in there? We have to go before we are late!” Brianna said from the doorway.

She was sounding a lot better than she had been since being rejected by her mate. I was glad that she got her strength back and was actually out of bed. though, I was surprised that she agreed to go to this banquet.

I looked up at Enzo with a frown and he kissed me again.

“Go,” he said gently. “I’ll be here when you get back.”

I smiled at him, though I knew it didn’t reach my eyes before I turned to the door and opened it.

Brianna rushed into the room.

“Everybody is waiting for you downstairs. What’s taking so-
