Author's note: this is from Zoe's point of view

I was relieved that the intimidating werewolf is not her partner. If he is Alpha, I could imagine our future filled with fear. Seraphina's included. But what about the other man?
"So, is the older gentleman…"
"That's my father.", she cut me off.
"I apologize, Alpha."
She smiled. "Stop apologizing. It's OK. And don't call me Alpha."
"But…"
"My name is Seraphina.", she cut me off again. "As for anything else, we will figure it out later. OK?"
'Zoe, come and help with the cleanup, will ya?', Ash's voice sounded in my head.
"I'm needed there…", I said to Seraphina before leaving.
'Guys…', I spoke to Luca and Ash through our mental link. 'This is a great opportunity to leave a good impression. If Seraphina sees that we are useful and obedient, it is more likely that she will not abandon us.'
