Seraphine's POV
I brushed off the moment and continued my conversations with the other women. When lunchtime arrived, Aleena's voice rang out across the gathering.
"Ladies, let's set up the tables!"
Antonia hurried over to assist Aleena with the arrangements. I watched as Kayne's eyes followed Antonia's every movement, his gaze intense and unwavering. His protective instincts were almost palpable. A smile tugged at my lips as I observed his behavior. Could she be his mate? If that was the case, why did she seem so nervous around him? Every time he approached, she looked ready to bolt.
Perhaps it was because Kayne commanded such formidable strength. As a Beta, he possessed more power than many Alphas I had encountered.
