Queen Bee

Let’s talk about our darling Luxe and her handsome budding artist Alpha.

The worker bees have been flying overtime and have reported that neither have been seen together again after their big café date.

Everyone is wonder when the official announcement would drop.

Usually, when two families start heading down that road, we get gilded invitations, glimpses of a fresh bite mark, and enough gossip to fuel this hive for weeks.

Instead?

Nothing.

No claim. No mating ceremony announcement. No public statement from either the Gardener family or the Moreaus.

Which raises a rather important question: what happened?

Because Mr. Moreau seemed thoroughly enchanted, and our Luxe appeared more than willing to entertain his attention.

Yet somehow, all that promising momentum has led to complete silence.

Did someone get cold feet? Did someone change their mind?

Or did reality prove far less romantic than the story everyone was already writing for them?

The rumors, naturally, are flying, and one in particular keeps finding its way back to the hive.

It involves an Omegas certain time of the year, if you get what I mean.

I’m not one to get into someone’s personal business—

*side eye*

—but it would explain her sudden disappearance. And the timing is certainly interesting given all the speculation surrounding Mr. Moreau and their increasingly serious courtship.

Meanwhile, our beloved Monarch has announced the next ball, and this one comes with a royal twist. Our dear Monarch is playing host!

The ball will be at the Council estate. The real question is whether our Luxe will attend.

And what about the Alpha in White?

I’ll be watching closely.

You should too.
