Chapter 30: A new look
Aurora understood the underlying meaning of his comment about a ’particular friend’ and decided to play along.
"Actually, I was hoping to meet more than just a friend today. Thank you for your concern, Alpha," she responded politely, but he detected the mockery in her words. If he was bad then she was a badass, she enjoyed being a breeder, it was refreshing.
"At this rate, only Selena knows what will happen next. Everyone keeps changing," Dave blurted out, disappointed with how things were unfolding. First, it was his childhood stalker, and now it was the chef in their mansion.
"You were always so eager to get her off your back. Why does it sound like you are not happy about it?" Enoch couldn’t resist taunting Dave, as was his usual nature.
"I have no idea what you mean, nosy Beta Enoch," Dave retorted quickly and began eating.
Enoch chuckled, amused by Dave’s misery over the recent changes. You never truly appreciate what you have until you lose it, a saying that holds some truth.
"Alpha, you have yet to introduce her to us," one of the Elders seated at the table inquired.
Damien knew they were curious to know what was going on, but he didn’t feel compelled to share.
"I suddenly became interested in a woman, so I decided to have one," his response was dry, leaving the Elders uncertain of how to reply. Was he genuinely interested in a woman, or was this all a ploy to avoid getting married?
