Alpha Ivan’s POV “Alpha, you are wanted in the main hall.” a voice says from behind as I throw back another drink. “f*****g hell… what now?” I ask moodily, placing the empty glass down on the bar. “Sorry Alpha, I think it’s time for your speech.” I groan internally and ask the bartender for another drink, which he pours quickly. I take the glass in my hand and turn to see a terrified looking waiter staring back at me with wide eyes. “Anything else?” I ask him, raising my eyebrow. “No Alpha, sorry sir.” he mumbles nervously before he scuttles away. I let out a deep breath and head back into the main hall which is crowded with people sitting around large circular tables. I walk between them carefully to get back to my own seat. I vaguely hear Leon’s voice in the background
