Erik’s POV:

A thought hit me, and I lit up. “Then, Deanna’s baby-”

“Yeah.” Luis’s mouth curved. “The baby will be healthy. No curse. Just a little wolf pup.”

“That’s phenomenal.” I took a long pull of coffee genuinely happy for him.

Then, he went, very casually, “You’ve dated a lot. What does a proposal look like?”

The coffee went down the wrong way. I coughed

“What do you mean, I’ve dated a lot?”

“Am I wrong?”

I straightened, affronted. “One or two, sure–but I’ve never proposed.”

I’m a principled bachelor. Even if there’s a marriage contract, it’s just a family alliance. Who needs proposals?

Luis kept a straight face. “You’ve at least seen how it’s done. I’m giving you the honor of making a recommendation.”

I rolled my eyes.

Giving me the honor, please.

Translation: the Alpha has zero ideas.

Then again, the man was a pure–hearted first–timer in everything that mattered–and all of it with the same woman.

I adjusted my tie. “Fine. Be dazzled by my genius and romance.

“Lately, the werewolf social media is obsessed with deep–sea proposals: guy vanishes mid- dive, reemerges from the reef with the ring between his teeth and a little placard that says ‘Will you marry me?‘

“Picture it–weightless, glowing, once–in–a–lifetime heartquake. Deanna will say yes.

The more I talked, the more it sounded like a solid plan. I even felt the itch to do a proposal myself.

And the person I’d propose to…

A face flashed across my mind–Violet.

Damn it. I must be possessed.

Luis cut through my daydream with a glacial lock. “So, you want my daughter floating in open water.”

I smacked my forehead. “Right. She’s pregnant. My bad. Next.”

I rifled my mental catalogue of romance and rat led off option after option.

He shot each one down, stone–faced, like a king watting flies.

Honestly, they were great ideas.

Yet Luis kept going, nope, not that, not this.

And he looked at me like, Seriously, that’s your level of creativity?

By the end, I began to wonder if my brain was mush.

“I’ve got one more. Auron. Wait for the aurora. You drop to one knee as a tundra reindeer trots up with the ring on a ribbon. Vows under the lights. No woman alive says no.”

Luis narrowed his eyes, thinking.

“We could swap the reindeer for Puddy. Puddy can’t do Norpodia, so we change the locale.”

At last–accepted.

I exhaled, then muttered, “Truth is, if you proposed in your own garden, she’d still say yes.”

Luis’s POV:

My gaze dropped. “I overheard her phone call. She said she was leaving Nordvale.”

An Alpha’s hearing is unforgiving.

At my office door that day, I heard every word Deanna told Kathryn.

I almost walked in and asked. Almost.

But I didn’t. Pathetic, wasn’t it?
