I wondered about where the rest of the pack train and exercise. The mansion was huge, but it was not crammed with people.

In fact, I had only seen Beauty, and Arthur inside, along with the servants and maids.

I made my way towards the garden and was relieved to find a familiar figure “Arthur.” I called out, and he turned around.

He gave me a smile on seeing me, and waved “Hey, good morning”

Arthur shrugged. “Everybody is where they’re supposed to be. At the pack house.”

I furrowed my eyebrows in confusion. “Where is that?” I haven’t really met the rest of the members of the pack. Would they all be hybrids or special species?

Arthur gave it some thought, as if debating what to answer “You didn’t expect the entire pack to live in the mansion, right?”

“Well…” I stuntered.

He chuckled “But then, even in the ball, I didn’t see any of the pack members.”

Arthur teased, “You didn’t see pack members of any pack, not just ours. That was because the ball was only for the leaders of a pack. The Hybrid King, Alphas, betas, and, in some cases, their kids too, if they’re of age.”

I remembered Olivia and d her friends and how they had made a big fuss about wanting to be chosen as Eros’s mate

That reminded me of a question lingering in my mind. “Did anybody find a mate!”

Arthur nodded. “A few did.”

“And the King” I couldn’t help but ask.

“He cannot find one while the curse is still in effect, but yes, he didn’t choose anyone.”

I felt so relieved to hear that.

“Eros is the Hybrid King. So he is supposed to live in a mansion, separate from the rest of the and packs. But he doesn’t like living there much either. He only uses it for work and meetings. Though, nowadays, he spends a lot more time in the
