Chapter 6

The next day, Elise took a long break from her internship and flew to Dubai with Ken for a vacation.

Although I had blocked them on social media, photos of her and Ken together flooded our pack’s communication channels.

They were kissing on a yacht at sunset, holding hands while scuba diving, and enjoying a romantic candlelit dinner at a seaside restaurant.

The younger wolves in our pack envied Elise for landing such a powerful and generous mate, while others were jealous of Ken's boldness and wealth.

I knew all this was because Ken thought he was about to become my mate and wanted to make it up to Elise beforehand. The most ridiculous part was that all these expenses were paid by the supplementary credit card my father had given him for "school expenses."

The more I thought about it, the more despicable he seemed. The disrespect was a physical blow.

After class, my father called me. I thought he had seen the photos and was calling to inquire about the situation.
