Alaric's POV

With Cara gone, I feel no more reason to stay at the event. It seems to be winding down now anyway, with only a few couples lingering on the dance floor and a small group hanging out by the dessert table. Most of the guests have already departed.

Ignoring Noel entirely, I say my goodbyes to Eamon. Then, turn and walk towards the door.

John, my Beta, must spot me from wherever he's hiding, because when I get to the door leading outside, he's already there waiting.

"Not here," I say.

On the way to the car, I fill in the blanks, giving John the summarized version, not going into very many specific details and certainly not telling him how any of this makes me feel.
