“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.

He grinned at me and kissed me again, looking like he was going to say more. But just as he opened his mouth to speak, we were interrupted by a knock on the door.

“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-

Her voice trailed off once she spotted Enzo standing before her; her face instantly went bright red and for once, Brianna was at a loss for words. She stag gered backward and then glanced at me with large eyes.
