Corrine glanced at Axel. He gave her a nod, letting her know that he was okay now.

“I will give you two some privacy,” Corrine smiled as she left the office.

“What did you want to talk about?” he asked.

“Are you alright?” she asked.

Axel furrowed his brows and then stood from the couch, moving to pour himself a glass of water.

“Just tired,” he said. “It was a long night.”

Ashleigh nodded and turned away.

“Speaking of last night,” she said. “Giving the flower to mom was an interesting choice.”

“What do you mean?” Axel asked, sipping from his glass. “The Alpha always gives the Luna the flower.”

“Yes, but the Alpha has always been mated to the Luna.”
