I could not make out who it was, but I saw the outlines of a curvy figure and long hair swishing as she moved.

Wanting to get a better look. I slowly advanced towards his office. The lights were turned off so it helped me stay in the shadows.

The blinds were partially drawn, and the lights in his office were turned to a dim light. I could hear the slight rustling of fabric and papers, telling me he was doing something important

I tugged at my lower lip, thinking of what to do next.

The office door was slightly ajar so I could hear whispers but I could not really understand who was talking or what they were saying. I looked around.

Arthur walked forward and went to stand in front of Eros. The door was still open and Arthur was hiding my view of the Hybrid King.

So, I simply slid inside and hid behind a cupboard while all of them were busy talking to each other.

“The rogues, alpha. They just attacked a small pack while I was driving back here. I had to get involved.”

Eros looked at him. “Are you hurt?”

Arthur shook his head. “Not much. But I heard the rogues are not really happy with the way everybody attended the ball. 1 think they are afraid that the smaller packs would easily sway in your favor as it gives them a chance to find their mates.”
