I kept watching her until she disappeared, then finally looked away and got ready to leave. But from the corner of my eye, I saw Celine slip into the little tree garden and meet the Waltons‘ butler, Salazar. What could they be hiding that was so secret? My gut told me whatever they were plotting had something to do with me. “Nice view here, huh?” Truman strolled up beside me. He peered down and teased, “So what’s got you staring like that? Not even a second’s glance away?” “I’m not staring at the view,” I said, rolling my eyes. “I’m watching the sky. Looks like it’s about to rain.” Truman’s deep eyes fixed on me, his voice low with meaning. “Looks like it’s gonna pour, huh?” “You’re making me nervous just saying that.” “Ms. Sander, if it really pours, will you keep me safe?” he teased again, “You’re the one who loves kicking up storms. Why worry about anyone else’s thunder?” I shot back right away.

The next scene was starting, and there was no way I was letting them lose sight of me. Celine’s POV: I scowled as the black wolf raced at me and then shifted back into human form. Salazar, now human again, stood before me and gave a polite apology. “Where did you run off to just now? Why weren’t you up front watching things? My dad nearly collapsed—he almost died!” I snapped furiously. “Ms. Walton, you told me to fetch Edgar,” Salazar replied. “Edgar?” I finally remembered and hurriedly asked, “So where is he? Did he come?” “That guy is desperate to cozy up to the rich and famous. The moment he heard you invite him, he followed me without a word. “Right now, he’s in there handing out his business cards to every guest he sees,” Salazar said with a trace of sarcasm. “He’s still such an embarrassment. No wonder Dad didn’t want him here.” I sneered and pouted. “Watch him. Don’t let him make us look bad.” “Don’t worry. Someone is keeping an eye on him. What about our plan?” Salazar paused and glanced at me. “Plan? What plan?! “After all that mess, Dad almost died. If we keep this up, we’ll ruin the birthday!” The more I thought about it, the angrier I got. “Ms. Walton, I heard what happened.” He spoke slowly, “Hayley embarrassed you just now. She always makes things difficult. If we don’t take this chance to strike and ruin her reputation, we might never get another shot.” I thought he had a point and subconsciously looked up at him. He smiled knowingly. “Things went wrong before because we didn’t think about Mr. Walton’s health. But our next move won’t hurt him. “What are you afraid of? Letting that woman off now will only cause trouble later.” “But Freya said Hayley is clever. Is she really that easy to trick?” I started to hesitate. Hayley wasn’t what she seemed. Even though she was a low–ranking Omega, she was tougher than many Betas 1 knew! “That’s exactly why. If we let her go, she’ll never give you another chance to get back at her. “Opportunities like this don’t come twice.” Salazar grinned, looking mysterious. His words made me think. It was my birthday party, yet that lowly Omega Hayley stole the spotlight! If I didn’t get revenge, I’d be laughed at by the socialites. While I was thinking, Salazar suddenly pulled out an electronic diffuser and handed it to me. “Look, I just made this. It’s a chemical that can trigger desired hormones. “This stuff is colorless and odorless. No matter how much Hayley knows about medicine, she won’t notice. “And it works fast and strong. She won’t have time to react. “Watching you get pushed around made me mad, too. So, I added a little hallucinogen to it. “That way, when Hayley loses control, she’ll picture the person we picked as her lover. Then we can … He gave a dark chuckle and stopped there, but I knew exactly what he meant. I had to admit that his idea was tempting. “This thing–will it show up in a test?” I asked. Salazar sounded sure of himself. “I’ve already handled that. Don’t worry. Once it evaporates, there’s no sign of it left.” So, no proof at all. “Perfect!” I said, grabbing the diffuser with excitement and shaking the liquid inside. This time, Hayley wasn’t getting away!
