Shrugging, Alexandria replied, “A friend brought me to this newly opened bar, but she had to leave early. I was about to leave when I spotted you two. So, I thought I’d say hi.”

“Ah, got it.” Carlos nodded. “Heading home now?”
With a smile, Alexandria said, “I’m not ready to leave yet. I made an effort to look nice. It’d be a shame to leave without having some fun. Carlos, Alpha, mind if I join you for a drink? I don’t feel like being alone.”
Carlos glanced at me.
I didn’t object. I poured another glass of wine and finished it.

I figured I’d already spoken enough with Carlos. There was no need to keep anything from Alexandria. Besides, it seemed rude to turn down a girl who’d gone to the trouble of getting all dolled up just to go out.
Carlos understood my unspoken agreement. He turned to Alexandria and said, “Sure, come on over.”
“Thanks!”
Alexandria smiled warmly and settled in beside us.
The three of us sipped our drinks, finding our own quiet space in the noisy bar.
Throughout the evening, Alexandria tried to chat with me, asking about work, but I was so down that I kept drinking without engaging in much conversation.
Before I knew it, I was a little tipsy.
My cheeks felt warm, and the scene before me started to blur.
Just as I was about to lean back and take a breather, Carlos’s phone rang, disrupting the pleasant atmosphere among us three.
Caleb’s POV:
When Carlos glanced at the buzzing screen, his thumb instinctively jabbed at the answer button.
“Hello? Sally? What’s going on?”
Carlos’ face twisted into a frown, hinting at the seriousness of the call. Though I couldn’t hear Sally’s voice, I could tell something happened.
After a brief exchange, he turned to me, tension tugging at his words. “Sorry, Caleb. Sally’s taken a tumble. I have to go back and make sure she’s okay.”
I waved off his concern, offering a casual nod. “No worries. She’s hurt; go be with her. Don’t keep her waiting too long.”
Carlos seemed ready to dash off but then stopped, his eyes flitting between me and the array of bottles on the table. “But what about you? If you end up getting plastered by yourself, how will you get home?”
Initially a bystander to the exchange, Alexandria stepped into the spotlight at Carlos’ query. With determination in her voice, she assured him, “Carlos, leave it to me. I didn’t drink much, so I can send Alpha back.”
Furrowing his brow, Carlos asked, “But you’re just a woman. Could you manage to get him home safely?”
Alexandria’s smile remained unwavering as she replied calmly, “Absolutely. Alpha’s not exactly a heavyweight drinker, right? And if needed, I can always enlist someone else’s help. We’ll find a solution.”
