Chapter 86
It was easier to forget something you couldn’t really dwell upon.
“No, its a little more complicated than that.”
His nervous glance to Elizabeth told me he knew exactly how much more complicated it was. But he chose not to share it. Williams sighed, setting his dining utensils down as he lace this fingers together.
“It’s not my place to say anything but…”
He gave me a small smile,
“-don’t back down if what’s holding you back is his mate. Trust me Selene, you won’t be doing anything bad if you choose to pursue your feelings. You’re not stealing him from anyone, that much.
is true.”
He swallowed, pushing his seat away and held his hand out to Elizabeth. She interlocked their fingers as they looked at me with a hopeful expression on their faces.
“We must go now. We have to officiate some details for the Gala.”
I nod in understanding but kept my mouth shut. His words running through my mind- as cryptic as

it was.
“But Selene.”
Elizabeth looks at me seriously,
“-if you want him, get him.”
Then she shoots me a thumbs up before sauntering away, dragging Williams behind her. I think over their words. I was sure Williams wasn’t lying when he said he didnt have a mate. But at the same time, it didn’t sound like he met her yet. As much as I would like to “get him”, there were too many unexplained answers.
Answers I was itching to get but had a slim chance of actually receiving.
And just like that, a week went by and it was the night of the Gala.
I was in my guest room at the Capital, wrapped in my fuzzy robe with my hair damp as I stared down at the gown hanging in my closet in horror. I was planning to return to Greyhound after the night of the Gala. Noah and his mate, Mailia, were meeting me here. They too were invited as my Beta and the Beta female. Isaac would’ve attended too, but according to Cade who was also attending, he wanted to stay back at the pack so he could finish training them quicker.
I would’ve smiled at the memory if it wasn’t for the fact I was beyond petrified by what I was seeing.
The simple blue silk dress I had picked was nowhere to be seen.
Instead, I see a black, form-fitting lace gown with intricate gold lining detailing around the plunging -neckline and the hem of the gown. Just below it was matching black pumps with golden floral
designs wrapped around the heels.
I stared.
And continued staring.
It didn’t disappear.
With a groan, I fished out my phone which was buried under the piles of clothes i had stripped out of when I was getting ready to take a shower and immediately called the designer who I was also
good friends with. He was the one I purchased my gown from. The personal designer I has since beginning my time as Alpha. After the third ring, he answered.
“Where is my dress Antonio?”
I ask in a hurry. There had to be some mistake. This was not the gown I had personally picked out and fitted for. There might’ve been a mix-up. A terrible, terrible mix-up that needed be solved.
