Chapter 16 Poisoned

  Leo's POV

  My name is Leo and I'm the current beta of the Embermoon Pack. The Alpha I serve is strong and regarded as one of the most handsome men of our kind. He is also most likely to be chosen as the next Alpha King.

  But, my Alpha's state of mind over the past two days had been very odd. For example, while he was eating lunch earlier he suddenly began to look up at the blue sky in a daze, and during the meeting this week, the Alpha had been distracted, leading the elders and members of the pack to think that they had done something wrong.

  "...that's all for this month's meeting," I said as I stood respectfully in my Alpha's study and wrapped up the rundown of the month's events and important events scheduled for next month.

  But my Alpha apparently hadn't heard a word He was leaning back in his chair in a daze so I loudly cleared my throat before speaking again.

  "Alpha?"

  "Yes, Leo?" Thankfully he knew it was me standing here and hadn't zoned out completely.
