KESTER.
The silence sat comfortably with us, refusing to leave. And 1, trust me, have always Yoom bran to extantin sheer te it was t with me like we shared a womb.
Kasmine almost collapsed beside me, I had to mind–link her immediety, Hold yourself together, baby. You wedde’t want to hom our child by panicking too much.”
She didn’t respond.
Thanks to the Blood Claim, I was able to mind–link her the moment the got her wolf. There was no need for any serial Wading before I could mind–link her.
Everyone else stared like I’d just poured gasoline on the table and lit a match.
I carefully ate my dinner while waiting for everyone to catch their breaths or whatever they were doing i didn’t have time fox suda drama as if we were acting in a movie.
I knew Uncle Ralph, the pack’s unpaid gossip channel, was already compiling his mental list of names, ticking off who he’d run to after dinner to spread the word. That’s why I made sure his fat little excuse for skipping this dinner didn’t fly,
He was a tool.
And tonight, I needed the news to spread like wildfire that Kasmine was off–limits to everyone and every young, unmated wolf who always had eyes for freshly transitioned wolves.
Of course, every other person had a part to play in this. My Beta, my Gamma, the Head of my Council. Come on. They were carefully selected.
“Ahem…” Finally, Jorja cleared her throat, “Kester… This is about the most expensive joke you’ve ever cracked,” Her small voice rang in the silence – that was how silent the room was.
She tried to laugh crumbling cake.

My father mind–linked me immediately.
“What is wrong with you, boy? How dare you embarrass the family in front of strangers?”
I lifted my gaze to meet his and slowly wiped the corner of my mouth with my napkin. They are not strangers, Dad,” I said out loud, knowing he’d feel even more embarrassed, “And I wouldn’t have you call my mate an embarrassment.”
All eyes fell to my father now, dragging him into the center of a fire he wasn’t ready to sit in. The silence that followed was sharper
than a razor.

You know what it means to be called a stranger when you thought you were family?
That’s what everyone else at this table felt with what I made them know my father said.
“How…” Jorja almost choked on her words, and when I turned to look at her, her eyes were filled with tears. They were wide and glassy like she was looking at a monster she hadn’t realized she’d raised and polished into a crown jewel.
Slowly, she tore her gaze away from me and swept it across the table her hand trembling as she reached for her napkin. “If you’d excuse us…” she whispered to everyone else who wasn’t family. She was humiliated.
“No,” I cut in, leaning back in my chair. “Everyone stays, Mum. This
