CHAPTER 33

  Elizabeth's Point Of View

  In a few long strides, he's in front of me and before I know what's happening, he pulls me in a hug. It lasts for just a moment but the stares that come after it last longer.?

  "Are you alright?" He looks me up and down.?

  "You offend me," I roll my eyes. "I'm not alright. I’m amazing."

  That earns me a round of snickers and chuckles. Elmond smiles at me, taking a step away so as to maintain a respectable distance.

  "My apologies," He says with a chaste bow before turning around to look at the man behind him. "This is Timothy, my beta and companion."

  I remember him a little from the Crescent moon ball. Same black strands of hair, same hazel eyes.

  "Ms. Grey," he nods, evidently surprising me.

  He knows my name?

  "Will someone tell me how you two," Ace motions between me and Elmond.?

  "Know each other?"

  Elmond opens his mouth to say something but a deep, hard voice cuts in.
