Chapter 23

  The dinner is set up inside the dining hall on the same table that was used during the day. Niya doesn’t pay attention to the small talk and even the food. Her eyes repeatedly fall on Chase who is only concentrated on his plate.

  “Eat the ribs Niya, they are delicious.” Donny whispers.

  “Trust me I am full.”

  “I have an announcement to make.” Alpha Jaden declares, “I have decided to throw a small celebration in your honor tomorrow night. I think it will be a good opportunity for you to meet with our folk and bond with them.”

  “That is so kind of you.” Vivian replies immediately and hits Niya with her leg under the table.

  “..Ahh!! Yes .. yes that is some exciting news.” Niya says, plastering a fake smile on her face.
