Roger’s POV:

*Ladies, since you’re already here, there’s no need for you girls to sit off by yourselves. How about we combine our rooms? It’ll be livelier for everyone.”
Just as I finished speaking, one of the women gave me a cold look. “Who wants to sit with you?”
It was the first time anyone had rejected me, and strangely, I found her attitude somewhat appealing. Plus, she was also a beta, like me. “Come on. We’re all out here to have a good time. No need to be so harsh. We’ve at least met each other–how about we exchange WhatsApp?”
To my surprise, she took offense, assuming I was flirting with her. She shot back angrily. “Who wants to add you on WhatsApp? Hayley, let’s go.”
I tried to stop them, but Benjamin stepped in. “Mr. Reese, why don’t we have a drink together?”
When Benjamin speaks, I can’t ignore him. So I grabbed my glass and drank with him. Once Hayley and her friends left, it was just the three of us left in the spacious private room.
I knew my sister, Winona, had planned to use tonight to get closer to Benjamin.
However, the encounter with Hayley had clearly chilled Benjamin’s attitude towards Winona even further. He was already distant, but now an icy wall seemed to have risen between them. Winona, catching my eye. silently pleaded for me to help.
I knew what she wanted–one of the reasons I’d delayed signing the contract with Benjamin was to create an opportunity for my sister.
But who would have thought that with just a few words, Hayley would rush us into signing the contract? Now, I couldn’t figure out what Benjamin was thinking, so I could only test the waters. “Alpha, while we’ve managed to seal the deal tonight, we haven’t really had much to drink. How about we move to another place and let Yueyue keep you company for a few more rounds?”
Benjamin stood up. “Mr. Reese, I really can’t tonight as I have some personal matters to attend to. Let’s arrange to meet another time with you and Ms. Reese.”
When Alpha Benjamin put it like that, I understood that he wasn’t interested in
my
sister!
Now that I knew the outcome, I didn’t want to push it. After all, becoming the Luna of the Midnight Pack’s alpha is no small feat; it’s not something anyone can just claim.
My sister isn’t his destined mate, so she doesn’t really have a chance. I shrugged it off and said, “That’s alright, Alpha. We have plenty of time to get together in the future.”
Winona stamped her foot in frustration. “Ben, can’t you stay with me a little longer?”
Benjamin gently pulled his hand back
Reese, I have other matters to handle. I’ll have to excuse
With that. Benjamin turned and strode out, leaving my sister and me staring at each other.
I gave her a hint. “Haven’t you noticed that ever since Ms. Carson came in, his eyes haven’t left her?”

Winona flatly rejected this. “Roger, you must be mistaken! That woman is so plain–looking, and she’s just an Omega. There’s no way Ben would be interested in ber. Don’t sully Benjamin’s name by associating him with someone like her.”
Hearing her say this. I decided to keep my thoughts to myself. From a man’s perspective, I could tell there was something different in the way Benjamin looked at Hayley.
But if my sister heard me say that, she’d be upset for sure, so I left it alone and gently advised her, “From what I can see, Benjamin doesn’t seem particularly interested in you. Maybe you should consider someone else?”
Winona shook her head, determined. “No, I truly believe that Ben is my mate. I want to be his Luna, and I’m going to make it happen. Roger, no matter what, you have to help me bring us together.”
I could see that my sister had completely fallen for him As her brother, I had no choice but to make an effort and help her.
Hayley’s POV:
After Trista successfully pulled me out of the room, I completely lost the mood for singing. My mind kept replaying the image of Benjamin and Winona together, and I couldn’t shake it off.
By the time the four of us finished our karaoke session, it was already close to midnight.
As we left Trista’s club, she quickly turned to Christine Christine, how are you and Hayley getting home?”
Christine glanced at her phone. “My family’s driver will be here soon. You guys go on ahead,”
Trista then looked over at me. “And you, Hayley?”
Just as I was about to respond, a car horn sounded unexpectedly. I turned around quickly.
There, parked by the roadside, was Benjamin’s car. I turned back to Trista and the others. “My ride’s here. I’ll head off first.”
Waving goodbye to the three of them, I got into the car and we drove away.
In the car, neither Benjamin nor I spoke, and the atmosphere turned oddly tense.
After the situation with Winona, Hera’s possessiveness ever him had,grown even stronger. She was restless. inside me, urging me to get closer to him.
I tried to hold her back, pressing my lips together before finally breaking the silence. “Were you waiting for
me?”
