I stared at Ruby with undisguised contempt. Did she really think her petty comments would get to me?

I wasn’t the same pushover Selene from before. I could put her in her place if I wanted to, but what was the point? I was just a guest here, and starting drama with the Alpha’s girlfriend would only make me look desperate for his attention.

Ruby’s face fell instantly. She opened her mouth to speak but thought better of it, dropping her head in a submissive nod.

Ruby’s head snapped up, tears streaming down her cheeks in what looked like genuine distress.

For a moment, I actually felt sorry for her. Kane had been with her for years now. If he really loved her like he claimed, why hadn’t he made her Luna?
