“You’re the second person tonight who doesn’t know who I am, and that’s fantastic. Some of your fellow alphas were rather overeager to get close to me, and they frightened me so I had to get away from them in a hurry.”
“Who’s the first person?” Diego asked, and Percy pointed at Rohan. “Oh, I see. Well, I’m a librarian, and as much as I hate to perpetuate the stereotype of someone in my profession, I prefer books to most of the shows on television. I really love to read. What about the two of you?”
“Absolutely into books myself,” Rohan replied, feeling relieved and thankful Diego finally gave him an opening to get back into the conversation.
“Me, too,” Percy added. “After a full day at work, I don’t want to go home and watch a TV program. It’s just too much for me.”
