Chapter 44 A Fake Mate

• Zions' P.O.V.
• After running around with Odett on Rykers back, I walked into the tent where Orian had placed clean clothes to change into, getting dressed quickly. I meet up with Rain, Odett, and Orian, deciding to walk Rain and Odett to the orphanage before I have to come back and check on all the preparations for the matting ceremony later today and meet the guest that will start to arrive in a few hours.
• I place Odett on my shoulders, making her giggle, and take Rains' hand in mine, and we make our way toward the orphanage. About halfway there, Orian and I get a link that Alpha Max, the future Alpha Ian, and their Lunas have arrived ahead of schedule. I quickly link Orian so he knows not to mention their names. I don't want her worrying about them right now. I call over the guards to escort the Queen and Odett to the orphanage and to stay with them until they return to the castle. Then I place Odett down on the ground and tell them I have to greet the first guests.
