(Astrid POV)
"About two months after the rejection, I implemented the plan. Kalen fought me the whole way. I had to put up really big blocks on him in order to sleep with the other she-wolves. But I did. I probably slept with at least one, sometimes two, she-wolves a day for three weeks.
"Every last one of them sucked. None of them could hold a candle to what it felt like to be with Evelyn, and not one of those lays did anything to cure the huge hole that I felt in my heart. After a while, I realized that sex meant nothing to me without romantic feelings.
"I also realized that I had made a huge mistake, and that I needed to get Evelyn back as soon as possible.
"Unfortunately, I learned that she moved away shortly before my alpha ceremony, with the blessing of my father. She intentionally did not tell any of her friends or family members where she was going, because she did not want them to be alpha-ordered to disclose her location.
