We heard footsteps thudding against the ground. We ducked into the field to hide from plain sight.
"Caroline, Ember!" a voice rang through the field.
Hearing the familiar voice, Caroline stood up. "Lydia, we are here," she called out before making her way to Lydia.
I also stood up, making my way towards them. When I got to where Lydia was—
"Are you going to join us?" Caroline asked.
"No," Lydia burst her bubble. She turned towards me, "Your presence is being requested. Follow me," she held my hand, pulling me along.
"Why are you pulling her?" Caroline asked. "And who is requesting her?"
"Alpha Damon," she answered, before turning towards me. "Did you do something to offend him or another high werewolf?" she shot me a scrutinising gaze.
"Not really," I drawled.
My mind travelled back to the incident that happened earlier in the meeting room. Damon had said that I would be joining the next meeting. I thought he was joking. I never knew he was serious about it.
