Beta Danford's POV
The next day I woke up refreshed and excited, it was going to be a good day. The whole pack house was at the breakfast and I am happy to announce that my king and Luna are doing very well. We were at the high table waiting for breakfast when her intoxicating scent invaded my mind. My eyes searched the room and there she was, serving the Alpha's daughter, Bailey, and her friends. I didn't like that she was waiting on everyone and Bailey was making sardonic comments about her and I wanted to go to them to react but Queen Anaiah held my hand.
She stands up and approaches my mate with a smile on her face. Bailey and her group all get on their feet, bowing low. The Luna ignores the fake girls and turns to Rhea with a kind smile
"Hi Rhea, my name is Anaiah, and I'm Dan's friend," she says, extending her hand towards her. My mate was overwhelmed and shy at the attention she was receiving. They are chattering as to why the Queen is talking to a mere omega.
"Please join us at our table, Rhea," she insists, while my mate ponders, searching for something, Bailey jumps between them
"Hello Queen Anaiah, my name is Bailey, the Alpha's daughter. I wanted to pay my respect, unlike Rhea over here, I'd never even think twice to turn you down,"
Anaiah's gaze lazily moved to Bailey, the silence is so embarrassing for her, and pack members who were watching are laughing at the Alpha's daughter, seeming like Bailey isn't too popular with the folk around.
"No, Bailey, I was asking Rhea, beta Danford's mate," her voice was calm as she said those words, and gasps erupt throughout the room. Rhea looked around worriedly and her eyes locked with a middle-aged man in the crowd, a growl sound in my throat but the man and most folks on his table were filled with relief, something that resembled hope. The men were higher ranking I could tell from their aura and the table they sat at.
Rhea's eyes shone and glared at Bailey, she had a satisfied look in her gaze.
"I'd be honored to join you, Queen Anaiah,"
"What! She's not even a ranked member! She can't dine in this room and especially with the highest hierarchy among Lycans!" Bailey was hysterically screaming.
