The Luther fidgeted, shooting me a quick look.

She didn’t like me watching her?

Leroy, Hairy, or Mandy would have confronted me about something they didn’t like. Grim wouldn’t care. But Lisa didn’t do anything.

I wondered where omegas sat in the pack house for dinner. After me came female alphas, then betas and deltas. Who came after that? Gammas or omegas?

No one won the next round.

“I feel ready to have a go,” I told Lisa quietly.

She collected the lost bets. “Leroy said you’d watch tonight.”

Yeah,butI felt ready. “I have the hang of it.”

“Maybe tomorrow night.”

Her cherry blossom scent firmed.

Interesting.She really wasn’t going to let me.

Leroy tapped me on the shoulder. “Break time.”

“You can’t take her away,” Burgundy called. “She’s my lucky charm.”

“She’ll be right back,” the alpha said smoothly.

Lie.

Cool air washed over me as we exited into the exchange area. “It’ssomuch nicer in here.”

“Do the uniforms make sense now?”

Did they ever.

Leroy guided me to the bar. “How are you doing?”

“Everything makes sense. I asked Lisa for a turn, but she said I had to wait until tomorrow.”

The alpha grinned. “I told her you were just watching tonight. Omegas won’t disobey an order—they’re incredibly stubborn.”

Stubbornness, huh.Did not see that coming. She was otherwise so unconfrontational.

Mandy slid Leroy a beer, ignoring me.

“Mandy,” he snapped.

I rested a hand on his forearm. “It’s okay. I’m not thirsty.”

He growled after the delta. “She’s crossing the line.”

“If it bothers me, I’ll sort things out myself.”

He shoved away his beer.

Knew there had to be a bit of alpha hot-headedness in him somewhere. “The night goes fast.”

It was already eleven.
