Aurora’s POV

Alexander joined us in the dining room, a facade of conviviality masked the tension that simmered beneath the surface. With practised ease, he engaged Alpha Caden in conversation, his tone light and affable, as though oblivious to the frosty reception he received in return.

Despite Alpha Caden's curt replies and clipped responses, Alexander persisted, his demeanour unwavering as he continued to address him with a casual familiarity that bordered on insolence.

Each word seemed calculated, each gesture laden with subtle implication, as though he revelled in the discomfort he caused. He doesn’t care that he is disrespecting his own king. I would like to see how Alpha Caden would punish him.

As the exchange unfolded, a palpable sense of unease settled over the room, casting a shadow over the once jovial atmosphere. Though I remained silent, a knot of apprehension tightened in my chest, a silent witness to the unspoken tensions that simmered between them.

Beside me, Lilian
