Chapter 20

• When Ryan arrived at her room with a heavy heart, she locked the doors and walked over to her bed, plumping down immediately. For a moment, she half expected Alpha Luca to come down and kick the doors, she waited, ready to start apologizing, but he didn't come.
• Ryan wondered what her punishment would be. She had just slapped Alpha Luca. Disrespecting your Alpha could earn you years in the cell, you could also get banished from the realm, or served other worst punishments, so she could only wonder which she would be given. Her plan had been simple, try to make Alpha Luca fall for her, and she had used Eric for that. She didn't see it turning out so horribly.
• How could she let her emotions get the judge her actions? She had asked herself this many times. She had acted without thinking, far from being the disciplined woman she was known for. Ryan knew she needed to do something and fast before Alpha Luca would take action.
