Lylah dared to study him from the corner of her eye. When she was younger, she’d thought no man co surpass Rowan–the most handsome Alpha in Vedanth. But the presence beside her eclipsed that mem entirely.
Ezra wore a long, raven–black coat trimmed with dark fur at the collar. Tinted glasses concealed his eye yet his sharply sculpted features radiated unquestionable authority. He was tall and immaculately composed, exuding a dominance so potent it made Lylah’s chest throb in an unfamiliar way.
Suddenly, the Alpha shifted slightly, head angling toward her.
As if he could feel her staring.
“Alpha,” Lylah managed, clearing her throat. “Would you like me to unfold your blanket p>
“Yes.” His voice was low and rich, a vibration that slid beneath her skin. “Please place it on my lap. Than you p>
Her pulse stumbled.
“That voice … A strange familiarity brushed her thoughts, unsettling and warm.
“It’s no trouble,” she said, doing as he asked.
“Is this your first journey to Lunar Grace?” he asked.
Lylah blinked, startled that he’d initiated conversation.
“I’ve visited Lunaris lands before on holiday. But the academy itself…I’ve only ever seen it from the outside p>
“You should see it from within,” Ezra replied. “Visitors are permitted p>
“I will,” Lylah said, nodding. “I’ll be studying there p>
For a fleeting second, she saw the corner of his mouth lift–barely there, but unmistakable.
Questions crowded her mind.
“Why would an Alpha of his standing travel by public transport? Why Lunar Grace?
Yet instinct warned her not to pry. Some truths were not meant for casual conversation. So she remained silent for the rest of the journey.
They arrived as the sky bled into a faint dawn.
Without thinking, Lylah took hold of her suitcase and guided him onto the platform.
As she walked beside him, his scent–sandalwood, winter night, something undeniably intoxicating- wrapped around her senses, leaving her faintly unsteady.
Near the exit, she spotted a man holding a sign with her name, standing beside a sleek, jet–black vehicle

“Alpha,” Lylah asked hesitantly, “is your Beta or escort coming to collect you? Have they arrived p>
Ezra didn’t answer.
Instead, the man with the sign stepped forward.

“Lady Lylah,” the man said with a polite incline of his head. “I’m Damon. I’m here to take you to your apartment p>
‘Riven’s assistant,‘ she realized.
“Thank you,” Lylah said, then paused, glancing back at Ezra. “But Alpha Ezra traveled on the same train I did. He is your Alpha, isn’t he? Could you contact his Beta to arrange a pickup? And please inform Sir Riven that we may be late p>
Since Riven belonged to the Moonclaw Pack, his assistant must as well. Yet Damon showed no surprise a the sight of the Alpha standing there.
Instead, his lips curved into a knowing, almost amused smile.
“Ah i’m sorry, allow me to correct my introduction,” he said smoothly. “I am Damon, Beta of the Moonclaw Pack p>
He glanced toward Ezra with unmistakable loyalty. “And no need to inform anyone, you’ve already gotte along so well with Sir Riven p>
Lylah’s breath hitched. She could only gape at him.
Damon straightened, gesturing toward the vehicle. “Now then, let us head out together p>
