There were so many rumors about the party, literally everyone believed there was going to be skind of big
news, how disappointed they would be. Other pack members had been invited, and according to Axel, the party
would be packed up with people from all over the world. It was strange that people could leave their homes just
for a one-night party.

the day. Honesty speaking, | felt like this particular piece was the best | had ever worn.
Thane walked in and paused when he saw me. | smiled wide.
“I know right, it looks beautiful,” | complimented.
“Yes, it does,” he agreed, his eyes on the dress.
“This is actually one of my best,” | informed him.
“Riley, | don’t think you should wear that.”
“What? Why? You don’t like it?” | questioned; suddenly the dress didn’t feel all that nice.

“Just pick something else,” he said, and with that, he was gone.
That was weird. | shrugged

Something felt very wrong. Damn | hated this feeling.
Thane seemed a bit disturbed, he hadn't spoken tosince he toldnot to wear the dress. | was
overreacting as always; he just had a lot on his mind.
“Thane, are you alright?” | asked, and he turned to me, givinga curt nod.
That was weird.
The hall was full of people; usually we would be out there socializing, but now-now we sat here. Finally, the
music slowed down. | waited for Thane to offer a dance, but he didn’t. Perhaps he thought my ankle couldn't
take the pressure.
Fuck it.
“Thane, would you like to dance with me?” | questioned.
“No, not really.”
What?
“What?” | voice the question in my mind.
“I just don’t feel in the mood right now, but you are free to go mingle.”
“I don’t want to go mingle; | wanted to dance with you.” | paused, annoyed now. “What is wrong with you and
why do you always have to be so freaking bipolar, today you loveand tomorrow you can’t even spare a
dance even after | asked.”
“You know what? Con, let's go dance,” he says, but there was an edge of annoyance to his
voice.
Something was definitely wrong.
He walked down the dias, and | had to hurry to catch up, and then he took my hands.
“Thane...”

eyes.
“Let go of me.”
“You wanted a dance, didn’t you?”
“Letgo,” | repeated, and finally he did, “What the hell is your problem?”
“Did | annoy you, princess?”
“Don’t callthat.’
“Queen perhaps?” The title had clearly been skind of mockery.

“I'm done. Enjoy your stupid party.”
“Oh, you are not going anywhere, not before | make the announcement,” he says.
