Her impulsive and disrespectful gesture infuriated me. My expression turned cold as I ordered, Let go!
No! Alexandria clung on, desperate not to be dismissed. Forgive me and promise you wont push me away.
Was she now using this as leverage?
Worried that we could be seen and spark rumors, potentially worsening Debras misinterpretation, I was about to forcibly remove her when an awkward voice interrupted.
Alpha, I hope Im not disturbing. Is this a bad timing?
I jerked away from Alexandria as if electrocuted and swiftly turned to find out who was talking.
It wasnt someone I knew, but a guard I didnt recognize.

Feeling a bit more at ease, I cleared my throat twice and inquired calmly, Who are you, and what do you need?
The guard looked visibly uncomfortable.
Calebs POV:
Im Aaron Brown, one of the guards stationed at the packs entrance.
The guard introduced himself briefly before presenting me with an invitation. Handing it over with respect, he said, Alpha, someone specifically requested that I deliver this to you.
Frowning, I accepted the invitation, scrutinizing it. Whats this about?
As far as I knew, none of my acquaintances had upcoming celebrations.
The guards cheeks reddened further, his discomfort evident as he stuttered, This is Lunas engagement announcement.

What? I paled instantly, my heart plummeting. I fixed an intense gaze on the guard, teeth clenched. The Luna youre referring to, is it Debra?
Yes. The guard observed my response. Alpha, why would Luna get engaged to another man? Have you two parted ways?
I tightened my hold on the invitation but maintained my silence.
Had Debra become so disillusioned with me that shed intentionally sent her engagement invitation?
No, that couldnt be her.
She loved me and had integrity; surely she wouldnt resort to this out of mere disappointment.
I attempted to compose myself, and once my breathing steadied, I asked, Who delivered this invitation?
The guard shook his head, feeling confused. Im not sure. He didnt provide his name; he simply delivered the invitation and left.
I was greatly displeased, my brows furrowing. You dont know who it was, yet you still gave it to me? Arent you concerned that it might be part of a scheme?
