Chapter 112

It had been two weeks since I returned from the Moonveil Pack. I threw myself back into work, determined to rebuild my confidence. One setback wasn’t enough to break my spirit.

My brother had just made a public announcement, informing all the packs that the Iron Crown Pack was looking to form an alliance under a new contract. Any pack that could meet our conditions would be invited to join forces with us.

The news spread quickly, and soon, the head Alphas of multiple packs expressed interest in forming ar alliance.

According to Magnus, he was handling the negotiations himself since he was the head Alpha of our pack. This was to be a high–level discussion strictly between Alphas, with no direct business dealings involved.

I had no idea what was going through Magnus’s mind. He hadn’t mentioned anything to me before making the announcement. When I questioned him about it, he simply brushed me off, saying it was a strategic move.

I didn’t understand why he suddenly wanted to form an alliance. If that had been his intention, he could have approached the packs individually. Why make such a public declaration?

That afternoon, as I was getting ready to head back to the packhouse, the board of directors invited me to join them at a club. I wasn’t one for clubs or parties, but since it was one of the board members‘ birthdays, I didn’t have much choice but to go along.

When we arrived, the group cheered and found a table near the center of the club, Rachel took the seat beside me.

asked what I wanted to drink, and I requested a soft drink. I wasn’t in the mood for alcohol. Their expressions turned a little awkward, but they nodded and ordered soft drinks for themselves as well.

“It’s fine, really. You guys can drink,” I assured them.

“No, no. We can’t drink if our CEO isn’t drinking. That would be disrespectful,” one of them insisted.

I sighed. I didn’t want to be the reason they weren’t enjoying themselves, so I gave in and ordered a drink.

They looked genuinely surprised.

“Miss Selene, are you sure?” one of the men asked.

“Yeah,” I confirmed.

Rachel turned to me, raising an eyebrow. “Boss, you never drink.”
