Chapter 30
Joe's POV
The moment I stepped into school the next day, I saw her, Jane, standing by the entrance like some goddess of doom, smiling at me as though we were a real couple. My jaw clenched immediately. A few heads turned, watching us, and I could feel their eyes on me like leeches. I walked straight towards the main entrance.
"What are you doing standing here like that?" I snapped, trying to keep my voice low but sharp.
She tilted her head, eyes annoyingly bright. "Good morning, Joe," she said like we were starring in a rom-com. "Ready to talk about our engagement?"
I blinked, taking a step back. "Engagement?" I hissed. "Look Jane, Don't you ever pull a stunt like that with my uncle again. And stay the fuck away from me."
Her smile didn't even twitch. If anything, it deepened like she was enjoying this. "Stunt? Oh, Alpha," she purred, "that won't be possible. I'm your betrothed. You know how important that is."
I gave her a flat look. "You say that like I care."
