88 He’s awake … 

Ramsey 

I stared at the ceiling , my thoughts drifting to Lyla despite the warm bodies of the two naked Omegas sleeping beside me , I couldn’t stop thinking about her .

The morning light filtering through the curtains cast shadows across the room , highlighting the scattered clothes on the floor- evidence of last night’s passion .

My brows creased with a frown as I wondered whether Lyla would show up .

I had sent Lenny to the meeting yesterday , hoping he could help me convince her to meet with me .

Lax – my wolf has been prancing around with expectation since her arrival .

The only thing stopping me from not going over to Blue Ridge was I needed to be sure she wanted me as badly as I did her .

But that didn’t matter .

Whether she wanted me or not .

It was only a matter of time before she 

came to me .

It’s just that , patience wasn’t one of my virtues .

The door creaked open without warning and Cassidy strolled in , stopping in her tracks as she took in the scene .

The smile on her face changed immediately to disgust and disdain as our gaze met .

She placed her hands on her hips , letting out a sigh .

“ Really , Ramsey ? ” she snapped .

“ You’ve sunk so low that you have to share your bed with these loose Omegas ? ” 

“ I was lonely last night ,” I replied without remorse , “ I needed something to fill the void .

Besides , it’s not like this is the first time that something like this has happened .

We have peculiar needs .

all the time .

“ Peculiar needs ? Is that what we now call cheating ? ” 

“ Judging from the way you’re reacting ; it means you’re used to seeing something like this .

I heard that Elder Thorne loves to have big feasts like this with women .

Chill , Cass … ” 

She glared at me for a while before sighing .

I shot her a lazy smirk , rolling over to tap each girl on the shoulder , rousing them from sleep .

“ Alright ladies ,” I murmured , reaching into the bedside drawer and producing a thick bundle of cash , handing it to each one .

“ Time to go .

” 

Both women took the money , hastily gathered their things and left , glancing at Cassidy uneasily 

back to me , her lips 

as they passed .

As the door clicked shut behind them , Cassidy turning at Cassidy uneasily 

pursed .

“ Sleeping around with Omegas … ” she muttered under her breath .

“ I’ve had it up to my neck with it , Ramsey and I’m not joking .

Where did you pick up this habit from ? ” 

I sighed stretching my arms and leaning back into the pillows .

“ I’ll stop once we’re married , alright .

Think of it as a way to destress , nothing more .

Now c’mon , Cass , don’t make a big deal out of it .

Patting the space beside me on the bed .

“ Come here .

”

88 He’s awake … 

She hesitated , wrinkling her nose but eventually , she crossed the room and perched stiffly on the edge of the bed .

“ What ? ” 

“ You tell me .

You’re the one who came to see me .

Shooting me another stern look , clearly holding back her frustration , she reached for a small leather – bound diary she brought in with her .

With a soft sigh , she opened it and handed it to 

mc .

“ These are the dates I’ve selected for the wedding ,” she said , her irritation momentarily 

forgotten as excitement crept into her voice .

“ We just need to choose the most suitable day for the wedding or have the Moon Priest choose .

” 

I glanced over the dates before closing it .

“ Fine , I’ll take it to them later .

” 

I let out a long yawn , ready to end the conversation when another knock sounded at the door .

Lenny poked his head in , a sneer on his lips and was about to say something when he saw Cassidy .

He quickly schooled his expression , giving Cassidy a curt nod .

“ I can come back later if this is a bad time ,” he offered , already stepping back toward the hall .

“ No ! ” I said quickly , grateful for the interruption as I waved him in .

“ I was coming to look for you .

anyways ? Go ahead , what’s the update ?” 

He shrugged and entered , though he remained near the door giving Cassidy another uneasy glance before focusing on me .

“ Are 

you sure you want me to say it now ? ” he arched his brow at me .

“ Of course , ” I shrugged dramatically .

“ We’ll be married soon , there should be no secrets between 

us .

” 

Lenny scoffed silently before he cleared his throat and started speaking .

“ The Alphas made their decision .

They selected Nathan Tanner as the new Alpha of Blue Ridge Pack and dismissed Luna Vanessa’s claim entirely .

They were able to do it using the ultimate power of the late Alpha’s firstborn .

” 

My heart skipped at the news , not because I cared about the politics of werewolves , but because it meant Lyla had been there .

I wanted to desperately ask about her , to know if she was okay , if she’d asked of me at all and if she agreed to come visit me .

But with Cassidy sitting next to me , it would be impossible to even talk codedly about it .

She wasn’t stupid .

So , I kept my face impassive , fighting the urge to ask about Lyla .

“ Interesting , I’m glad it’s over .

Damn Werewolves … they never know how to do anything quietly ,” I said already looking away .

Cassidy arched an eyebrow , narrowing her eyes suspiciously at me .

“ Why are you acting uninterested ? Weren’t you the one suggesting to the White Moon Council that you’re thinking of getting involved in the election ? ”

turn her down , Cass .

I owe her family ” 

“ You’re acting like they gave your grandfather a kidney or something .

I think you’ve appreciated them enough , it’s time to back off , ” Cassidy complained .

I and Lenny exchanged quiet glances before Cassidy turned to Lenny again , a curious look on her 

face .

“ Did you see Lyla at the meeting ? ” 

Lenny froze , turning to stare at me , the question had thrown him off guard .

“ Don’t look so shocked ,” Cassidy sighed rolling her eyes .

“ You think I wouldn’t know if she’s around ? Did you talk to her at least ? Is she leaving after her father’s burial or staying back ? ” 

Lenny looked lost for a minute , his gaze darted to me again , as if to ask that I help him out , but I just smiled refusing to Involve myself .

Just as he was about to respond , the door of my room burst open and Seth rushed in , his eyes gleaming with relief and excitement at the same time .

So unlike , Seth .

“ What’s going on ? ” I asked him suspiciously 

His face split into a smile as he made his way across the room .

“ Alpha ,” he bowed respectfully , then raised and looked up at me .

“ He’s awake .

Your grandfather , Elder Eldric … is finally woken up from his coma ! ”
