Lucian's POV:
I lingered a few moments longer at the banquet, watching as Xavier stormed off in the direction Raven had taken just a few minutes before. The bastard had probably caught on—he seemed like the type to figure things out quickly—but I had to admit, Raven might just know what she was doing.
Maybe, just maybe, she'd manage to charm Xavier the way I wanted. That would be perfect. When she finally had him wrapped around her little finger, I would swoop in with Alex and Tyler to catch her in the act. I'd let them see how much of a two-timing bitch she really was, the woman who had used her omega pheromones to seduce all of them, all while playing everyone for fools. By then, Xavier wouldn't care about her anymore. She would have nothing to stand on, and no one would side with her.
It would be glorious.
