Cara's POV

"...My, my husband, Aylon Arbun?!"

"Isn't he?" Alaric asked, staring at me.

| widen my eyes, looking at Alaric in shock and confusion.

| recall what my brothers said tolast time.

+25 BONUS

... That's how it went. The guy asked why your husband wasn't taking care of Mia when she was sick, and that's

when Colin responded," Eamon said.

All the brothers looked at Colin. He just quietly gave a small smile.

Aidan said, "Hey, | never would've guessed it, but Colin's the boldest one among us!"

Ryan added, "That really saved a lot of trouble. From now on, Alaric will definitely never bother you again."

| asked, "So, what exactly did Colin say?"

Colin replied, "I just told him... you really do have a husband." He gazed atgently.

"A husband who's busy in the Pack. That's enough. He doesn't need to know much about him."

My wrist is still held tightly by Alaric. Our gazes lock, and | could see the restlessness in his

eyes.

So now, Alaric... does he think "Aylon Arbun" is my husband...?

What a coincidence of a misunderstanding!

But | understand the intention of my brothers. Alaric... He's a good man, a good king, but he's not a good mate.

No matter how | feel about him, for the sake of my children, | can't be with him anymore. It can't allow myself to

think about him!

| snatch the remaining document quickly from Alaric's hands.

"I've got to get going, | need to-"I turn to walk away from him, not sure how to finish.

that sentence.

But Alaric's hand on my hand stopsin my tracks.

His firm, warm fingers seem to melt into my one. The heat of the skin-to-skin contact feels shocking and exciting,

like there's an electric current rating between us. | haven't felt that in years six years...

| tense my muscles, surprised and nervous by my body's reaction to touching Alaric. He's going to uncover ray

secrets. He's going to findout the truth

I'm about to be exposed.

All of my hard work, all of Earon's hard work at getting the pack to agree to seal my identity. Eamon and my

brothers tirelessly worked within Pack Bloody Moon to ensure my true identity remained hidden.

But all of that work was about to be for nothing

"Why are you always so busy, Cara? You're a princess now. You shouldn't need to work anymore..." Alaric's voice

is soft, almost tender

The sound is so uncharacteristically soft in fact that I feel like I'm glued to my position on the floor. My feet won't

move, won't carryaway from him.

Alaric's clear blue eyes are pinned to my face, studying me... caressing me. It's an overwhelming sensation,

being observed by him like this. He's so close tothat it's almost... intimate.

My lips can't speak, | don't trust myself to say anything in this moment. I'm usually so composed, so quick with a

response to brush off anything unexpected that comes my way.

But this, this close contact with Alaric, after so many years.... after so many secrets...

"Unless... unless he's got you working for him now. That's it, isn't it? Your husband's got you doing all of his Beta

work instead of handling it himself," Alaric says to me, voice so quiet that he leans intocloser. His face is

mere inches from mine now. His hand is still on my wrist. The heat is collecting in that spot, radiating up my arm.

Wait a minute...

'His' Beta work?

What is Alaric thinking?!
