Armand stood. “A toast to Henri and Vitas, may they live in happiness and peace.”
“Here, here,” shouted the group as they raised their glasses. Armand and Sean went through the buffet line first, as was proper, and the council followed in order of precedence. When Vitas and Henri’s turn came, Vitas took more than one spoonful of each dish presented.
He looked back at Henri. “So, I’m hungry.” Henri laughed out loud. He found he was doing a lot of that since he found his Mate.

Armand and the other Alphas gathered in the corner. “Are we sure all of Henri’s Alphas saw the mark? There are so many of them. Who was responsible for crossing their names off the list?” The Alpha bit into the end of an apple turnover. “Martin?”
“Regis had that responsibility. Shall I get him, Alpha?”
“Yes, we have to make sure this thing is locked up tight. I want no loose ends.”
Martin walked over to where Regis was standing and brought him back to The Alpha.
