Among the parents watching Violet and Nancy's joyous reunion was a certain Alpha of the South and his prodigy, Roman Draven. They had been having a conversational stroll when they stumbled upon the scene and stood to watch.
"Who is she?" Alpha Leon asked.
"Which of them?" Roman asked with a taut voice. One that Leon didn't realize. He hoped to God it was not the "who" he was thinking.
"The one with the purple hair," Leon said, his gaze fixed intently on her. "She's pretty."
Roman didn't even know when the threatening growl rumbled from his chest, and that finally drew Alpha Leon's attention. He raised his brows at his son's attitude, then stared in the direction of Violet and then back at his son again.
"Don't tell me you're into her?" he asked playfully, hoping that wasn't the case. But when he saw the resolute look on Roman's face, it dawned on him at once what was going on.
