Married My Ex's Alpha Uncle

Chapter 29

Midnight was only a couple of hours away; I didn't have long before I needed to make my escape.

"Champagne, Luna?" The server broke through my thoughts.

I turned to see a man standing nearby with a tray of champagne. Elliot was already sipping on his and he was watching me, waiting for me to answer.

I smiled and took a glass off the tray.

"Thank you," I said in response.

He nodded and turned away.

Just as I took my first sip, I felt a strange disturbance; like someone was watching me. Feeling a slight chill run up my spine, I turned, and I froze when I saw Gavin on the other side of the gathering, staring at

me.

His face shined with indifference and my heart felt heavy in my chest. I shouldn't have been surprised to see him here; I mean, he was a part of the pack after all. But with all my worries about this evening, Gavin's attendance was not a thought that occurred to me.

Just then, Beta Leo approached us. His lips were pressed in a thin line, and I could see a dark cloud forming on his expression as he whispered something into Elliot's ear. If I had wolf hearing, I might have been able to hear what they were saying. But I was wolfless and didn't have that ability.

Elliot visibly tensed and he nodded at Leo before turning his attention to me.
