Shifted Fate (Amy) novel Chapter 528

A few days later…

I walked through the halls of the pack house, and I smirked behind my mask. This was as gaudy as I thought it was going to be. The colors were white and cream. Who picks those two for mating colors? I snorted as Meg, Shannon’s best friend, came running out of a room in tears.

“I fucking hate her.” She screamed as she ran away.

“She seems like a real peach.” A dark whisper came from behind the curtain. I was by.

“You aren’t supposed to be near me.” I leaned against the wall by the window.

“I know, but how could I not be?” His voice was soft. I heard the window open. “But someone is coming. I love you.” Then he was gone.

The lack of guards was laughable. “Do we really need to wear these stupid fucking masks?” Verity’s nasally voice was coming from down the hall. I just walked. She turned the corner with a familiar man, already in a mask.

“Will you please stop whining for five damn seconds?” The man rubbed his forehead. “We have only been here for an hour and you have already given me a migraine.”

“Daddy.” She pouted.

“Yes?” I kept my voice low.

“Were is this mating ceremony supposed to take place? We are just wandering around here.” He smiled and lifted his mask. Any doubt I had disappeared.

Verity lifted her mask. “Hello? Omega? We asked you a question.” She growled as she reached out her hand to grab my mask, but I dodged it.

“I’m sorry, we aren’t supposed to talk to the ranked wolves. Nor are we allowed to remove our masks.” I bowed. “It was a command.” I took a step back. “The main event will be in the clearing outside, with a meal in the main hall to follow. Right now, the men are getting ready in the Alpha’s office, and the women are down the hall to the right.”

The man watched me. “Do I know you?”
