The party

MAVERICK'S POV

"Sir, did you tell her?" Shadow walked to me.

I looked at him, quirking my brows as I wore the cufflinks that Valencia specially chose for me. 

A smile appeared on my face when I realized that she was already starting to act like a wife, and it was more than enough for me, more than energizing, to fight the world for her.

Shadow sighed beside me.

"Sir, you said you will tell her everything as soon as you meet her," Shadow persisted.

I pressed my lips into a thin line.

"I will tell her when it will be the right time. She doesn't need to worry about something I will take care of. I won't let some elders decide who will become my Luna. She was, is, and will always be my Luna," 

I looked directly into Shadow's eyes to ensure he got my point and didn't speak a word about it to Valencia and ruin the night for her.

"Yes, alpha," Shadow looked down at his feet.

I sighed.
