The Elite

Chapter 2

We walked in and the air was thick, I could smell humans and wolves. There was a mix of alcohol and sweat. As we walked through the room, I could feel eyes on me but I didn’t look around. I made my way to the kitchen where Saralyn and Becky were waiting.

“LIV!” I heard Becky scream from across the room. She rushed to me and wrapped her arms around me.

“Can’t breathe.” She released me with a smile.

She quickly gave hugs to everybody before handing out shots. Skipping me because she knew there was no way I was going to drink. After everybody had a few shots, we headed to the living room. Everybody was dancing and grinding on each other.

We made our way to the center of the room and started dancing. I felt eyes on me again and Aura was going crazy. I turned my body to the right and saw the most beautiful man I had ever laid eyes on. He was tall and had dirty blond hair and the biggest blue eyes I had ever seen. He was staring at me.

When our eyes found each other, he smiled and I melted.

**Mind link**

“mate”

“Aura, what do I do?”

“He will come to us.”

So I waited and continued to dance. Swaying my hips in the most provocative way I could think. I watched him smirk and bite his bottom lip. But he stood still and didn’t move.

After about a half hour, I was starting to feel a little bit of panic. Was something wrong with me? Why wasn’t he making his way to me?

Whispering to Becky. “Where is the bathroom?”

“Upstairs, the second door on the right.”

With that, I took my leave and made my way up the stairs. The door was closed, so I leaned against the wall and waited.

All of a sudden, I was pulled into the most amazing smell, a mix of coffee and chocolate.

“Mine.” Was all I heard before his lips crashed onto mine.

This was it, I was having my first kiss with my mate. They always say there is a spark. I wouldn’t call it a spark, but pleasure just pumping through your body. Where your mate touched was just intensified.

He lifted me and pushed me against the wall and instinctively I wrapped my legs around him as his hand found my ass. His kiss wasn’t soft like I expected but hard and fast like he was going to lose me at any second.

When he pulled away, he slowly set me back on my own feet. Pressing his forehead to mine.

“What is your name beautiful?”

Still out of breath, I whispered, “Olivia, Olivia Kincaid. From the Dark Moon Pack.”

“You are even more beautiful than I could have even imagined.”

I blushed. “Thank you.”

“I’m Lucas Martin of the Night Walker Pack.”

His lips found mine a second time, but only briefly. “You are gorgeous, which makes this that much harder.”

Confusion fell across my face. What was happening?

“Olivia, I am so sorry. You are perfect but….” He looked down and stepped away from me.

“My heart belongs to another wolf. We have known each other since we were born and we fell in love.”

My heart was beating out of my chest and I couldn’t focus and my lips would not form any words. I just stared into his dark blue eyes. Was he about to reject me?

“I Lucas Martin of the Night Walker Pack Re..”

“LUKE! Are you up here?”

Watching him quickly put space between us snapped me awake. I looked over just in time to see a beautiful woman make her way to the top of the stairs. She was tiny, maybe 5 foot and had black hair, green eyes, and olive skin.

“Hey babe I am right here. Sorry there was a line to use the bathroom.” He pulled her into his arms and placed a kiss on her lips. Those same lips that were on my mine just moments ago.

I felt my mate bond break along with my heart. The bond was still there. He didn’t get to reject me, but it felt like somebody had taken my heart and pulled it in two.

I watched as she took his hand and then headed down the stairs. He didn’t even turn back to look at the pain he had caused. I wanted to cry. I could feel Aura’s pain, which was worse than mine. The door to the bathroom opened and a human stumbled out.

I pushed past him and shut the door. Making my way to the sink, I splashed some water on my face and took a deep breath. Come on Liv, you have been training your emotions for years. You didn’t even cry when your parents forgot your 16th Birthday because your sister was getting married to an Alpha. Pull yourself together.

I smirked at my reflection. Emotions are over rated I will not let him see me weak. With my head held high, I made my way back to my friends.
