“I never thought I would see the day,” Galen said, holding the paper up to the light as though he were checking if it were real.
“It’s very much real, Galen,” Caleb said. “Ashleigh told me before it arrived.”
“But why?” Galen asked. “He’s not that old, and I fought beside him during the fae attack. He is not lacking in strength or stamina.”
“I’m sure Alpha Wyatt would be pleased to know he has your approval,” Caleb smiled.
Galen rolled his eyes.
“Ashleigh said several factors led to the decision, one of them being mine and Ashleigh’s relationship.”
Galen set down the invitation and looked at Caleb.
“How does your relationship lead to Alpha Wyatt retiring?” Galen asked. “If anything, I expected a declaration of war.”
“That’s it exactly,” Caleb replied.
Galen raised his eyebrow at Caleb.
“You do this to annoy me, don’t you?” he asked.
“Do what?” Caleb asked.
