บท 41: _Make The First Move

Phoebe

~~

Everything was going perfectly. Well, mostly at least.

Even as I sat beside Kaene at the Ball, I heard some whispers from nobles from the other side of the hall.

Judging me.

What the heck did I do?

Where were all these rumors of me and Beta Negan coming from? Had we been that obvious in public?

At one point, after drinking the ceremonial wine, Kaene climbed the stage to make a speech after I pointed out how the people of the pack would never respect me.

He was certainly about to make a whacky proclamation of the two of us being mates and how he 'accepted' me. Like all that was supposed to make me jump for joy.

However, before he could finish his speech, chaos struck.

Screams filled the hall and from what we heard, the Luna of Crescent Moon had fallen right here in this ball.

I stared at Kaene who was still on the stage amidst the chaos, my heart palpitating as I tried calming myself.
