(Sophia’s POV)

I was pacing around my little office nervously.

My parents, my aunt and uncle, and Hunter went to the Alpha gathering. They were gone for a while and they needed to go back. Mike was probably home or downstairs. He was excited to participate this year. I had no idea where Lex and Mason were, but the important thing was that they weren’t there and I could use this opportunity to talk to Anna.

I asked Seth, one of the warriors in the packhouse, to go get her. I didn’t want my family to see me walk around the packhouse. They would ask questions and I wasn’t ready to talk about it with them. I didn’t want to worry them. I had to find a way to deal with my magic before I told anyone. My office door opened and Anna walked inside with a worried look on her face.

“Is it true?” she asked as soon as she closed the door. “You found your mate?”

I took a deep breath and nodded. I didn’t even know how she found out, but I didn’t care about that.

A huge smile spread across Anna’s face.

“That’s amazing, sweetie!” she said as she approached me and pulled me into a hug. “Who is he? What did your dad say? What did Alex say? Did they scare the crap out of him?”

Anna let me go and chuckled. She kept her hands on my shoulders, smiling softly at me.

“He is Alpha Nathan’s son,” I mumbled, making her eyes widen.

“What?” she mumbled as her hold on me tightened.

“He is Alpha Nathan’s son,” I repeated quietly.

She studied my face for a few seconds.

“Wow, the Goddess has a crappy sense of humor,” Anna mumbled as she let me go.

I sighed and gave her a small nod.
