Chapter 102: Last night
[ The next day at the Bloodfang pack ]
The scent of eggs, grilled tomatoes, and brewed coffee was trying its best to rouse the Bloodfang pack from their post party haze.
It was already 11:30 in the morning, but the halls were only now beginning to stir with sluggish footsteps and muffled yawns.
The feast last night had gone on well past the designated time, leaving even their strongest warriors walking like sleep deprived zombies.But that’s ok.That’s what a Bloodfang party was expected to do... in the least.
The large oak table in the center of the dining hall was set. One by one, the royals arrived...first, Alpha Velor in a simple black tunic, rubbing his temples.
His three wives trailed behind...Mara in her pajamas,Niva and Serra in their silk gowns, their hair still tousled from sleep.
No one said a word at first.
The scraping of chairs against the stone floor and the gentle clinking of cutlery were the only sounds that filled the air as the maids quickly brought out their usual favourites.
Soft poached eggs for Mara, toast slathered in honey for Serra, spicy sausages for Niva, and a bowl of fruit with chilled cream for Velor.
Velor picked up his spoon to stir his coffee, but paused.
His brows furrowed, and he glanced towards the grand staircase that curled up to the private chambers.
