Chapter 34. The Possibility

Cora’s POV

As I fling the door to Alpha Thomas’s office open the scent of pine fills my senses. My mouth waters and my knees go weak. My wolf is howling in my mind, begging me to go to my mate, but I can’t think of anything more humiliating than being mated to a Beta.

I knew from the moment that I saw him at my sister’s matchmaking party. His fresh scent of pine filled my senses and I wasn’t able to take my eyes off of him. But with an Alpha on my arm, I had to pretend like he didn’t exist.

Lucky for me, Dylan wants even less to do with me than what I want to do with him. He blocks the door of the office and furrows his eyebrows curiously. A small smirk plays on his lips but he hides it quickly before Alpha Thomas sees.

I shake my head in frustration and clear my throat. Dylan finally moves out of my way and I hurry passed him. The door slams behind me and I take in a deep breath. But the hallway reeks of Dylan’s scent and I am unable to clear my head.
