Yet, despite everything, Aiden still didn't come home that night. When morning broke, I went to the pack mansion, where Alpha Argon greeted me with the news, "From now on, you will stay in the servants' quarters to serve me more promptly."
Deep down, my wolf and I sensed that Alpha Argon was aware of the gossip surrounding my comment. I overheard some of the others discussing it.
Aware that it could associate me with Alpha Argon, I gave myself more time to contemplate the matter.
As much as I craved peace, Aiden and his healer assistant, Lauren, remained entwined, making me feel like a mere mistress. The two of them seemed unbothered by the consequences, wearing their relationship like a badge of honor.
With that realization, I returned to Alpha Argon. I proclaimed, "Alpha, I accept your offer and choose to reside in the pack mansion to create some distance from Aiden."
Right then, Alpha Argon fully backed my decision.
However, when the head servant and some elders caught wind of my choice, they advised Alpha Argon against it, arguing that it would entangle him in our personal matters and could lead to potential complications. Yet, Alpha Argon stood firm, ignoring their protests.
