Chapter 4
Zoe’s POV
I saw waffles in front of the seats at the ends of the dining table, and walked over to sit down at one end of the table.
Aaron sat at the other end of the table.
“Why did you change the password to your ipad?” He asked me as he stared at me.
The ipad was a gift that he had bought for me on my twenty-fifth birthday and he was the one that set the password for me. I changed it after I realized that he had gone running with Hannah.
He didn’t even notice until now.
“No reason.” I answered him as I chewed on my waffles.
A frown fell on his brows and he said in a cold voice, “The Pack alliance party is tonight, and you’ve always wanted to be my date to such events. Do you want to go as my date?”
Hannah has always been his date for pack related stuff since she became Beta while I go with my friends, so what changed now?
If I declined his offer, he would grow suspicious and I didn’t want him to know that I was leaving just yet.
I didn’t look at him as I stood up and replied, “Sure.”
At the pack alliance party, I was sitting at a table inside the city hall where it was taking place with Aaron beside me.
“Are you having fun?” Aaron asked me as he saw the bored look on my face.
I nodded, not sparing him a glance.
Being his date wasn’t as fun as I had imagined. I didn’t know any of the other Lunas or their Alphas, and Aaron has been ignoring me until now.
“Are you-” He started, but stopped when we heard Hannah’s voice.
“Aaron!”
We turned around to see her rushing to us.
She hugged him tightly.
“You look marvelous!” He exclaimed as he stared at she
Hannah held his hand, interlacing their fingers, “Thanks!”
She glanced at me as her eyes widened in surprise and she let go of his hand, “Oh no! Luna Zoe, I’m so sorry. It’s just that we’re very close.”
“You don’t have to apologize, Hannah.” Aaron replied to her before I could.
Alpha Aiden walked over at that moment and started talking to Aaron.
“There are rival werewolves!” We heard someone yell and everyone started running around in panic.
“Come on, Hannah.” Aaron said as he grabbed Hannah’s hand and pulled her towards the back door.
He didn’t try protecting me, instead, he was protecting Hannah.
“Everyone, calm down. There are no rival werewolves! A kid saw shadows of a bush and thought it was a Rival Wolf.” Alpha Aiden announced, making everyone pause.
I saw Aaron walking back into the hall with Hannah, and I glanced at the time on my phone.
My flight would be taking off early in the morning, so I had to retire to bed soon. I made my way out of the hall and took a taxi to the pack house.
The next morning, I was inside the plane when I heard Aaron’s panicked voice in my head, “Zoe! Why am I feeling pain from the mate bond breaking? Why are you leaving? Where are you going?”
“Answer me, God Damn it!”
“Where are you going?”
