Zolani’s pov.
The room was literally holding its breath and I think I'm a bit tipsy. I wonder if there was alcohol in the drink Aradia gave me.
"Go ahead Aradia, she's tired, I'll take her up, it's late already." He said and Aradia groaned in protest but nodded in affirmation anyway then she winked at me and focused on her men.
Was she drunk?
Aradia never allows anyone to take me away from her and now she just agreed to her dad?
Yep, she was definitely drunk.
Cassian’s grip tightened on my waist and then he turned and led me away through the crowd, up the stairs and into the shadows.
The party continued behind us, music, laughter, like nothing had happened
But everything had because Cassian Blackthorne had just claimed me in front of the entire pack.
And I hadn’t stopped him well,
