Miranda POV
The pendant!
"Alpha Colton." I gasped, disbelief flooding my mind as I stared at the beautiful necklace in his hand. "T-this pendant."
He growled softly and stepped forward, "We don't have time to start a conversation. We're almost late for the event." He reached out his hand for me to take it but I was too stunned to move.
Seeing this, he clicked his tongue in dissatisfaction and brushed past me. I was about to turn and follow him thinking maybe he had changed his mind, but his strong arms grabbed my shoulders and stopped me from turning.
"Stay still," His calm voice sounded so close to my ear that it tickled. I stood rooted to the floor like an obedient lamb and waited for my shepherd to lead.
After multiple failed attempts to fix the necklace a soft click sound in my ear. I heaved a sigh of relief, and surprisingly, he did too. I felt pity towards him thinking back to how he struggled to fix the necklace.
