Everyone received me so enthusiastically.
I blushed and felt a little embarrassed.
âEh? Thatâs weird!â
The man standing closest to us suddenly gasped in surprise.
âDebra, you havenât been marked by Caleb yet?â
Suddenly, a thought occurred to him and he burst into Laughter.
âOh, my
God! Caleb, youâre the Alpha of our pack, yet you were marked by an unmarked woman.
Weâve never heard of such a thing before.
Hasnât she fallen in love with you yet?â
I frowned slightly and immediately refuted him, saying, âThe mark between mates has nothing to do with gender and status.
Moon Goddess arranged for me to be Calebâs mate, but she also gave me the right to refuse him.
I wonât just change my mind because of his position.
â
My gaze swept across the crowd as I added in a louder voice, âEven though heâs the Alpha, itâs normal to be marked without marking the woman.
Itâs up to me when I will be marked by him, and me alone.
â
It was quiet for a few seconds, and then there was a burst of warm applause.
Sally was the first to clap for me.
âDebraâs right! She has the freedom to choose when to be marked.

Goddess may have chosen them for each other, but Alpha Caleb also has to win his mateâs heart!â
Most of the women present agreed with me.
âYeah! Being mates is a two-way street.
â
âIndeed, women arenât the only ones who are chosen.
Does it even make a difference if a man is marked first? I donât think so!â
The men present didnât say anything at first.
They were clearly shocked by my radical notions.

After a while, Calebâs friends recovered from their stupid and came to propose a toast to me.
I took the wine they offered and drank one glass after another.
Caleb couldnât help but warn me to slow down.
âDonât drink so fast.
â
âGot it.
â
I tried to Listen to him, but I still ended up drinking a lot.
Suddenly, the music changed from loud and lively to melodious and soothing.
âDebra, may I have the honor of this dance?â
Caleb bowed to me like a gentleman, hand outstretched.
âOf course.
