The next morning, I sat in front of my vanity, brushing my hair after freshening up.
In the mirror, I spotted Kaelos' reflection as he adjusted the cufflinks of a silver suit, his shoulder-length black hair falling on either side of his face.
His expression was grim... And so was mine.
Today was the day we'd know where the loyalties of each Alpha in North America lay.

"You ready?" I drew in a deep breath, rising from the seat after taking one last look at my reflection.
I clutched the hem of the light cream-sleeved gown I wore, feeling like a queen.
'That's because you are, girl.' Sirena chimed in my mind at the same moment that Kaelos cleared his throat.
