Elizabeth's Point Of View
You're going... On the Hunt... You're going on the Hunt... With me....
I burst out laughing.
"Me? On the Alpha's Hunt?" I say between my laughs "Goddess, that's the worst joke ever."
Sebastian narrows his eyes "This is not a joke."
My laughter does down. I look at him thoughtfully and cock my head to a side, weighting my options.
"Why?" I asked.?
"Because the rules are, that every Alpha will have a partner and he cannot participate without him," Cecilion says. "Or in this case, her."
I stay quiet, chewing at my bottom lip while they stand up and turn to the door as if this is over so soon.
"Come, we have a lot of packing to do," Sebastian says without sparing me a glance.?
"What if I refuse?"
They all stop. The air in the room stills, tension swirls around me like heavy waves.
"What," Sebastian says, turning around slowly. "Did you just say?"
