章 878: The fair mixer (3)

Talia looked in the direction where Damon went, and she could see the crowd parting to make way for him.

"What are you looking at?" Mindy asked.

Talia shook her head. She didn't want to admit that she was eyeing if any female would be foolish enough to get close to her man. Talia was done being intimidated or polite when it came to shameless women. Damon was mated and marked, and he was Talia's!

Talia saw chef Page preparing two bowls of ramen with extra care, and she noticed one more figure by his side passing him things as he extended his hand. They worked without a word spoken. It was a female child, around ten years old.

Talia could sense that the child was not from the Dark Howlers pack, and what stood out in this mass of smiles was that the girl was not smiling. Her expression held a sadness that was kept in. It was uncharacteristic for such a young child.
