I couldn't help but let a sarcastic chuckle escape my lips. "Isn't it how I treat you inside the car the same way you always treat me? Perhaps you just realized now that this means a silent treatment, Alpha?"
Alpha was at a loss for words.
I wasted no time and walked away, leaving him standing behind.
For the next five workdays, I buried myself in my duties as Luna, attending to many ceremonial duties and ensuring every pup's needs were addressed.
Alpha's luxurious gifts and flowers arrived one after another, but I brushed them aside. For the first time, I became aware that living alone had its perks.
I didn't have to worry about what I cooked for dinner, which suited the taste of the Alpha, and I didn't have to worry about when he would be back.
During my absence from the Pack House, Beta Colter frequently checked in on me during my duty hours.
I didn't mind his visits, as he was the only one I could trust for support, even though I knew the Alpha had sent him.
He wasn't from the Silver Moonlight Pack, and his origins were mysterious. Most believed he was a rogue who had wandered in and found refuge in the pack, though his secrets had yet to be revealed.
