MARCEL.

I let go of her. I can’t be the one to push her any further when I know how she feels. If

there’s anything she does hold for me, then she needs to be the one to make the next

move. 1

She hesitates, her heart pounding as she stands there, her back to me. I couldn’t control

myself seeing her, especially

when she is dressed like that. I had to tell her…

I didn’t miss the looks she got from some of the single men in attendance, and it riled me

up. Her dress is tasteful, with just a hint of cleavage on show, whilst tantalisingly

displaying her smooth back. I can’t blame anyone for checking her out when she really is

such a beauty. Just like when I first noticed her in that black dress

Enter title…

I’ve never been able to look at her the same since.

“Thank you.” She says, glancing at me before she turns and walks away. 1

I sigh, hearing the sound of her heels receding, before I head after her myself and back

to the party.

I have a feeling she was upset regarding my conversation with Kristina. Kristina and I

have been friends for years and although we have occasionally h*oked up. When I

realised she was beginning to develop feelings for me, I ended it entirely and it has been

a couple of years.

I didn’t mix with the she-wolves of this pack often and with Kristina, well; she didn’t really

live on pack territory half the time.

I return to the party and grab myself an iced drink. I’m frustrated, in more ways than one,

but I’m trying not to let it show.

I walk over to where Leo is standing to the side smoking, watching Azura and Corrado

dancing.

I’m truly proud of the man he has become. Even now he appears cold, but behind those

piercing blue eyes, are endless emotions.

“He’s enjoying the party.” I say, stopping by Leo’s side as I watch Corrado smile happily

as he dances with his mother.

“When doesn’t that kid like attention?”

I chuckle. “He’s getting big. I can’t believe he’s already six.”

“Yeah. Time f*cking flies.” Leo says, and I don’t miss the way he gets distracted by

Azura.

To think these two went through so much to get to where they are now…

Everyone’s having a good time, the chatter and the laughter creating that pleasant buzz.

However, when I hear someone call Winona, I instantly hone in on it.

“Winona! Wow, I didn’t even recognise you. You look beautiful.”

My eyes flash, and I instantly scan the garden until I see none other than Leo’s friend Li

Sheng. He is standing there, arms crossed as he leans against the counter where MY

mate is standing, looking flustered.

I clench my jaw, trying not to react.

They’re just talking… Forcing my gaze elsewhere, I’m unable to stop myself

i in carrying on listening.

“Thank you. You look handsome, too. I love that shirt.”

I c*ck a brow, really?

My gaze flicks back to Li Sheng. He’s wearing some oriental print shirt which is half

unbuttoned and the way he’s smiling at her… Yeah, they look good together, but that just

irks me.

“Want to dance?” He asks her.

“Ah no thank you!” She says quickly.

“Oh, come on, it’ll be fun,” He says, leaning closer he whispers something in her ear, but
