I was stunned by his sudden proposal. Everyone knew that every Alpha wanted to form an alliance with our pack. That’s why so many of them had tried to approach me. But Alpha Hunter’s pack was already part of the alliance. So why would he ask for my hand in marriage?

I slowly turned my head toward my brother to gauge his reaction.

I silently prayed he wouldn’t say something stupid again. The last time, he almost arranged my marriage with Axel. And now, Alpha Hunter?

I wanted to turn him down, so I opened my mouth to speak.

“Alpha Hunter, I-”

“I can’t accept your offer, Alpha Hunter,” my brother interrupted me.

I immediately turned to look at him. He met my gaze and gave me a reassuring nod. Relief washed

over me.

But the other men standing around us turned their attention to the conversation. Some of the Alphas even gasped at Magnus’s blunt rejection.

“But why?” Alpha Hunter demanded, his voice tinged with irritation.

“My sister isn’t interested in marriage right now. She has dreams she wants to pursue first. She wants to enjoy her life before settling down. When she’s ready, we’ll consider it,” Magnus said gently, his tone polite but firm.

Alpha Hunter, clearly unsatisfied, pressed further. “Then what about an engagement? She can still pursue her dreams. I wouldn’t stop her from doing anything she wants–she can continue her business, her life, everything.”

Before Magnus could respond, someone else spoke from behind us.

“Apologies, but she already has a boyfriend.”

I turned around, startled, to see Axel walking toward us.

Alpha Hunter raised an eyebrow. “Who? You?”
