AZRIEL’S POV

We returned to Zadok’s office, leaving Aaron half-dead in the dungeons.

“What happened?” I asked for the nth time, while Zadok paced in the office.

“I should have finished him up! I should have killed him with my bare hands.”

Athaliah stepped into the office, sporting a worried look

“You want to know what happened?” He finally said, taking a seat. “I met my mate at the ceremony!” He announced with an evil smile.

“What do you mean?” I asked, confused.

“Athaliah,” He called, “Please tell Azriel what happened at the ceremony tonight.” He said with a deranged expression, “Tell him how I watched my mate get mated to another, how my mate was stolen away before my eyes.”

“Alpha...” Athaliah began but he shut her up.
