Alpha's Regret: Losing His True Mate

With that tantalizing thought swirling in their minds, the Green family greeted Harry and Levi with even more enthusiasm, their voices more warm and eager, their hands extended in welcome.

However, Sienna couldn’t help but frown at their overly obsequious attitude. She and Harry were friends, like equals. The Green family, her own relatives, shouldn’t be fawning over them like this. It felt... cheap. Embarrassing, even.

But Sienna wasn’t about to call them out in front of everyone. After all, the Brown family had been a powerhouse for decades, their name carrying weight that stretched back generations. The Green family, on the other hand, had only clawed their way to prominence in the past ten years or so.

In terms of legacy, the Greens still didn’t hold a candle to the Browns. So while Harry and Levi clearly didn’t think much of the Green family’s desperate enthusiasm, they chose to overlook it, focusing instead on their relationship with Sienna.

After exchanging pleasantries and handing over their gifts to the Green family, Harry turned to Sienna, his tone casual. "Where’s Dante? Hasn’t he shown up yet?"

Sienna shook her head lightly. "There were some complications with a deal overseas. He’s been pulling all-nighters trying to sort it out these past few days." She paused, her expression sympathetic. "Unfortunately, it’s not completely resolved yet, so he’s running late. He’ll be here soon, though."

Harry and Levi nodded, understanding flickering across their faces, but neither pressed the issue further.

Sienna, familiar with both of them, personally guided them to their seats, her hand gesturing gracefully toward the front of the room where the best tables were reserved.

By now, it was getting late, and the banquet was ready to begin.

But the main guest of the evening, Dante, had not yet arrived, and Miles Green was visibly uncertain about whether they should proceed or wait for him.

He turned to Sienna and Janice, his voice low and hesitant. "What do you think? Should we wait?"

Sienna didn’t even hesitate. "We can start the meal."
