Once she’s out of sight, Nathaniel turns to us, frowning. This is the first time I’ve seen him looking annoyed.
“Bobo, what was that?” He asks in a cold tone.
“Just as she said.”
I feel bad for letting Bobo handle Nathaniel alone, but his attitude is clearly telling me to stay out of it, and I remember Elena’s words. Nathaniel and Bobo stare at each other for a few seconds, and I wonder if the Alpha will interrogate him again... But against my expectations, he doesn’t ask anything else. Instead, he breathes in, regaining his composure, and turns towards me.
“Sorry about that, princess. Anyway, you look really pretty, and I hope you have a great date tonight with my brother. Enjoy your birthday.”
His words sound a bit empty, and I can’t help but think that his mind is so
