00:00seeing injuries like that. Alpha Damon does not tolerate seeing injuries like that.
00:06Yep, yes ma'am. I run to the stockroom, get four bottles of San Pellegrino and put them in front
00:11of the door, then run away as fast as I can. One million questions run through my head.
00:16Would their Alpha be angry for being weaker than other wolves, even if I was not part of his pack?
00:22Was she going to tell Alpha Edward about my unusual features?
00:25Was she going to call him out for letting someone break my nose?
00:29I mean, lady, if you think that is bad, I got some news you're not going to like,
00:34and then I'm dead meat by your Alpha, for sure. Alpha Edward comes down later and whips me for
00:40not having all the items our guests wanted. By morning, Sylvie has still not been able to fully
00:45heal me. I'm in so much pain. Everything is a struggle. Cooking, carrying breakfast trays,
00:52leaning over to clean tables. Every move causes scabs to open and bleed, making the back of my
00:58shirt damp with blood. Maya makes eye contact with me a couple of times. She can tell something was
01:03wrong, but doesn't say anything. For some reason she can't explain, Sylvie is bouncing around in my
01:09head all morning.
01:10The Beta is so nice. I can't wait to meet the Alpha and Luna.
01:14Sylvie, come on. We're not going to get to meet the Alpha and Luna. We're going to melt into the
01:19wallpaper and pretend we don't exist. I want to meet them.
01:23Okay, well, I hate to disappoint you, but you're going to be disappointed.
01:27Layla comes in while I'm prepping lunch to let me know that Alpha has arrived,
01:31and I need to make lunch for him as well. There is no Luna. He doesn't have a mate,
01:37and according to Layla, he's handsome. Not that it matters to me, because I'm going to be
01:44wallpaper. I don't want him to notice me at all. I take the trays to the conference room.
01:52Alpha Damon is not there, but there is a spot at the table where he is supposed to sit.
01:57I leave his meal at the empty seat. Everyone from the Dark Howlers pack, politely thanks me,
02:03as I lay out plates in front of them. Their manners betray their intimidating features.
02:09No one from the Red Moon pack says a word to me as I serve them.
02:13I collect the trays and walk out quietly. Layla lets me know she will clean the plates so I can
02:18focus on dinner and food for the party. I go to the kitchen, but need a minute to collect myself
02:23before I get started on dinner. I go out the back door and stand on the stoop. In the distance,
02:31I don't recognize him. It must be the Alpha from Dark Howlers. He is too far away for me to
02:37see his
02:37actual features, though. All I can see is a tall figure with dark hair and a suit.
02:42It smells like... I swear, it smells like coffee. Or dark chocolate. This guy was a mocha drinker.
02:54I laugh to myself at the thought of the big, bad Alpha of Dark Howlers, sipping on a mocha Chino.
02:59I make a four-course meal of Caesar salad, bacon-wrapped shrimp appetizers, beef wellington with braised
03:07Brussels sprouts for the main dish, and a key lime pie for dessert. I also make bruschetta, tomato fritters,
03:15mini calzones, assorted veggie trays with dip, and chocolate truffles to serve for the party.
03:20I finished the desserts and veggie trays between breakfast and lunch, so there was less for me to
03:26worry about now. I realize Sylvie's advice of finding happiness in cooking has helped me enjoy
03:32making this dinner. Maybe because I'm serving people other than my pack. Or maybe it's because
03:37I'm making special food, not just the regular stuff I make for the pack. Either way, I don't mind my
03:44work
03:44today. I felt a sense of pride in it. There are servers for dinner service since it's a formal
03:51event. I stay in the kitchen and make sure everything is plated, and going out the door in
03:56perfect condition. I'm in the zone. I peek out from the kitchen after each course is served.
04:02People seem to enjoy the food, which is a relief. I notice Alpha Edward is getting pretty drunk.
04:08Luna Layla keeps taking his glass away from him, but he keeps ordering the Omegas to give him more.
04:14The dining room is extra crowded, so I don't get a better look at Alpha Damon.
04:20Maya sees me peeking out from the kitchen and gives me a wink and thumbs up. I smile and give
04:26a little wave before pulling my head back. I help the servers take the party food to the tables at
04:33the
04:33edges of the ballroom. I also make sure the bars in the corners are fully stocked. The DJ is finishing
04:40setting up, and colorful lights are sliding across the floor. Party balloons and streamers are hanging
04:48all over the place. The first few guests are starting to wander in, which is my cue to duck out
04:54the back door. Luckily, the dinner servers will clean up the dinner service tonight, which gives me
05:00extra time to restock pantries. I head upstairs to the stockroom and load the cart up. I'm humming to
05:08myself as I go from room to room. I feel an odd sense of calm as I go.
05:13You're in a good mood.
05:15I guess. I'm not sure why, though. My back and feet still hurt.
05:20Well, I'm happy that you're happy, for once. This version of you is pretty cool.
05:25Thanks, Sylvie. You're not half bad yourself. I finish stocking the ranked pack members' rooms
05:30on the fourth and third floors. Then I head to the second floor, where the guest suites are.
05:35The cleaning staff has cleaned everything. I just need to restock the toiletries,
05:40pantry items, and refrigerators. I make quick work of the rooms. I remember to stock the beta's room
05:47with more bottles of San Pellegrino, refresh the flowers, and leave a little tent card
05:51with a handwritten smiley face on the kitchenette counter. It's almost midnight now. Everyone is
05:58still in the ballroom partying. I close the door to the beta's suite and move to the alpha's suite
06:03door. It's the last room left for the night. I know he's at the party, too, but I knock first,
06:09just in case. I lean my ear against the door. I don't hear a reply. I slip the key card
06:16in the
06:17slot and open the door, but the moment I looked inside, my heart stopped, and I froze. Standing
06:24there was the most handsome werewolf I've ever seen in my life. Easily six foot, six inches tall,
06:31looked to be about 250 pounds of solid muscle with the broadest shoulders, but he wasn't alone.
06:37An icy blonde stood in front of him with her hands undoing his belt. The smell of coffee and dark
06:43chocolate filled the air, and my mind went hazy as I froze, seeing two piercing blue eyes staring
06:48back at me. Stop! he shouted. Is this it? Is this the day I die? I wondered. I was only
06:56doing my job,
06:57but that did not change the fact that I had witnessed something that should not have been seen.
07:02Before I could move, he lunged forward and roughly pinned me against the floor outside the room with a
07:06low growl. He placed both hands on my shoulders, preventing me from escaping, put his face against my
07:12neck, and inhaled deeply. My heart was pounding in my chest as overwhelming panic began to set in.
07:20Alpha Damon, is this Omega trying to steal something? a guard said, seeing the struggle.
07:27Get back! he snarled, flashing his large fangs. Mine! he growled. Over his shoulder I could faintly
07:36see Marcy staring daggers at me, and down the hall I heard Alpha Edward shouting. What a disaster!
07:43I thought, they're all going to kill me. My head started swimming, and I felt even dizzier. Maybe I was
07:50finally dying. Look what! You've done, you little bitch! Marcy yelled as she reached out to grab me,
07:57but she never touched me. Alpha Damon snarled, snatching her hand out of the air and snapping her wrist.
08:03Alpha Edward roared, how dare you? This is war! I watched them fight as if it was a dream.
08:10They looked as though they were moving in slow motion. Alpha Edward yanked Marcy, pulling her back
08:16as Damon snarled at them. He was vicious, beautifully vicious. A guard tried to separate them as Beta
08:22Caden and Maya took defensive positions around Alpha Damon, and George lunged at Damon, but he was
08:28no match for the Alpha. Damon grabbed George by the throat and threw him into the wall as though her
08:33were
08:33a tiny pup. I almost laughed, but I was shaking all over, barely able to stand. But in the chaos,
08:40I managed to crawl away and slink down the stairs. I looked around to see if anyone noticed me,
08:46but they were all too busy arguing. I looked down to see blood running down my legs, dripping onto the
08:52floor. I started to lose consciousness, and then I heard it. The most guttural, ear-shattering roar.
08:58Where is she? Where is who, Alpha Damon? Where is my mate? Is it possible? Is Talia truly Damon's
09:07fated mate? What will Damon do to protect her? Will their bond ignite a war between the two most
09:12powerful packs in the Order? Will any of them leave Red Moon territory alive?
09:21In the guest bedroom, Damon pushed Marcy away from him. She fell unceremoniously on her butt.
09:28Who is that girl? Damon hurried to button up his pants. Marcy looked confused.
09:34Yeah, I don't think this is supposed to look like this.
09:37We know it's old, but it doesn't have to look like this.
09:39Can someone please fix this?
09:40His number one's?
09:41I'm sorry.
09:53I'm sorry.
09:58Don't look like this.
10:00Don't look like this.
