Protective Spell

••• Aleena’s POV •••

“It was nice for Alpha Kyson to let you shop,” Beta Christine said as she accompanied me to the town center.

“Yes,” I smiled broadly as we walked into another boutique. The town center was bigger and better than I’d imagined it to be. There were many selections of shops, from bakeries down to formal clothing. There was even an art gallery and exhibition hall.

“I know this is not my place to ask, but.. how are things with Alpha Kyson?” Beta Christine asked in a soft voice.

Beta Christine was a lovely woman. She was very gentle, and it was easy to talk to her. She made me feel like I had an older sister.

“Well.. I want him to love me, but it looks like he doesn't want to.” I said with a sad smile.

“Just give him time. It wasn't easy for him to be an only Lycan, and he always harbored hatred toward Andre. It’ll be a little hard for him to accept that his mate was the enemy’s daughter,” she said gently.
