Ruby came to find Ryan in his room with an excuse to give him juice. She bowed to him respectfully. "Alpha, your juice."
Ryan took the glass and looked at her suspiciously, knowing she was here with a purpose.
"You are not here just to give me juice," he said, swirling the juice. His gaze roved over her body as he smiled lasciviously.
Ruby sneered in her mind, sensing his hungry eyes on her. She maintained her solemnity and said, "You are right, Alpha Ryan. I am worried about Luna. You see, Eleanor has returned. Alpha Zane will soon bring her back, and the pack members will not object."
She gave a sad look and added, "Luna is so unlucky. She has just married, and Alpha's mistress has come back. I am afraid Eleanor will create a rift between Alpha and Luna."
Ryan's smile faded, and a glum descended on his face. He didn't say a word, though, and drank the juice.
