Cheyenne’s P.O.V As soon as we walked in the living room everyone's eyes fell on us and it was a little daunting to be watched by so many strangers, but Mercury didn't pay any attention to it. Mercury stopped with me to talk to a few people and a gentleman smiled at me, making me feel less nervous. “Hi, your Cheyenne right? I've heard so much about you. My name is Christine, I'm Loren's Lu...I mean I'm his wife. It's a pleasure to meet you, we must go shopping together soon.” Christine said, introducing herself. She had blue eyes, red hair and she seemed really nice. I smiled at her and we talked for a few minutes, while Mercury talked to her husband. Mercury then took me to meet and talk to some more people, but this time the woman was really snooty. “Hello, my name is Loraine and this is my husband Johnny.” Lorraine said, her green eyes sparkling and then she started snickering. “Mercury, I see you have a flavour of the month, she looks hot.” Loraine said, winking at him, but suddenly Mercury growled and she just bowed her head. This was really weird, why did she bow her head? Why was Mercury growling? “Watch your tongue Loraine. Johnny, you need to teach your little b***h respect when she comes to my house. This woman is my lady, she is not a flavour of the month and if you don't like that, then you can turn around and get the hell out of my house.” Mercury said and Loraine bowed her head as if she was submitting to him, which was even weirder. “I’m sorry sir, I just thought….” Lorraine started to say, but Mercury cut her off with an angry glare. “You thought wrong, now get out of my sight.” Mercury replied and his glare grew more intense. I don't know why but I instinctively grabbed Mercury’s hand and was surprised that it actually calmed him down a bit. “I'm sorry about that, some of these women are just jealous. In time you will be able to handle this on your own and you will be allowed to.” Mercury said, turning to me and I didn’t know what to say, so I just nodded. Mercury and I walked around the room talking to many others and everyone else was really nice, it seemed like it was just that Loraine woman who was a b***h. The one thing that I found really weird and confusing was the fact that everyone kept bowing their heads to me and I didn’t like it one bit. Why were they doing that? “I'm going to get something to eat, I'm starving.” I said, turning to Mercury and he nodded. “Go ahead, I knew you had to be hungry. I heard your stomach growl.” Mercury replied, making me chuckle. I rubbed his arm and walked off in search of food. I looked at all the food spread out in front of me and my eyes landed on the seafood. I placed some sushi, shrimp and dipping sauce on my plate and then found an empty chair to sit down and started eating. When i was done i threw the plate away and then walked back over to Mercury, but stopped dead in my tracks when i saw him. Mercury was standing there with his arm around another woman and they were really friendly. I didn't like that, if he wants to be my man then I don't share. I walked over casually smiling as I tapped him on the shoulder, he turned around smiling, but it soon faded when he saw me. He looked like he was a cat caught with a canary in his mouth and his hand slipped from the woman's back down to his side. Mercury’s P.O.V Oh s**t, was all I could think before Cheyenne smiled at me and opened her mouth to speak. “I'm going to head upstairs, it seems like you have everything covered down here including a date.” Cheyenne said, making me feel like s**t. “And you must be Cheyenne, I’m Mary. I'm not his date sweetie, I'm his ex. I only came to see who took my place and may I just say that he has very good taste, you my dear are a very sexy woman. No wonder I felt him on edge.” Mary said, smirking and I wanted to rip her head off in that instant, but I wanted to see what Cheyenne would do. “It's ok dear, you will be gone in a few days and I'll be right back in his bed.” Mary said, pushing her luck. No way was she ever going to be back in my bed and if she cost me Cheyenne she would be six foot under. Cheyenne looked right at me and I saw her balling up her fist. “It's no wonder he dumped you, you don't know when to keep your mouth shut.” Cheyenne said and with that she punched Mary straight between the eyes, breaking her nose and knocking her out. Everyone turned in shock and suddenly Trevor came running in with a worried expression on his face. “Boss, I'm sorry, I didn't know she got in here, please forgive me.” Trevor said, but I just started laughing, I couldn't hold it in any longer. “It's fine, Trevor. Cheyenne handled it just fine. Get her out of here, take her home, leave her on the road. I don't care either way, just get her out of here.” I replied and Trevor nodded, bowing his head to me. I grabbed Cheyenne’s hand just as she was about to leave and pulled her closer to me, wrapping my arms around her waist and stopping her from going anywhere. “You did wonderful tonight and trust me she wasn't going to be back in my bed because I am keeping you. I tossed her to the side weeks before you came into my life.” I said, but Cheyenne just shook her head at me. “Listen, I'm not into all this drama. I don't fight over men, but what's mine is mine and if you want me in your life then you better make damn sure I'm the only one. I don't share and I don't play nice.” Cheyenne replied, but her voice was suddenly drowned out by a loud howl. s**t, I forgot about Saturn's birthday and her first shift. Suddenly a huge gray wolf walked into the house and even though everyone here knew what and who it was, they all had to act and pretend like they were scared because of Cheyenne, but she didn't look scared, instead she looked more shocked and surprised than anything, she just stood there with her mouth hanging open. Cheyenne must have thought that she was seeing things or something because she didn't move and just looked at the wolf and me in disbelief. Cheyenne’s P.O.V I didn't know if what I was seeing was real or not, I mean a freaking huge wolf has just walked into the living room. Mercury kneeled down in front of it and the wolf went straight to him, tilting its head at him as Mercury leaned down and whispered something in its ear. Mercury started to run his fingers through the wolf's fur and I must admit I was dying to stroke it or even get close to it, the wolf was so beautiful and it didn't look dangerous either. “Can I pet it?” I asked, edging forward, but Mercury shook his head no. “No, you see this wolf is wild and it somehow trusts me enough to come here. We have a bond, this wolf saved my life many years ago and I let it come and go as it pleases.” Mercury said that and it made sense as to why it trusted him enough to let him stroke it. Mercury nodded as the wolf turned to leave, but then it walked over to me and nuzzled my hand before leaving. “It seems to like you, you're lucky.” Mercury said, smiling, but I just shook my head. I couldn't help wondering what other surprises this house has. “I think I've had enough for one night, I'm going up to my room. Enjoy the rest of your party.” I said, feeling drained from the events of tonight. I said goodnight to everyone and Christine pulled me into a hug, she really was a nice woman and then I left to go back upstairs to my room. The first thing I did when I got inside was take my shoes off and tossed them to the side, then I took my dress off and hung that back up in the closet. I went to the bathroom and washed my face, got rid of all the make-up and let my hair down. I went back into the bedroom and put my pyjamas on, I was just about to get into bed when I realised that tomorrow was my day off and I wouldn't have to get up early. I quickly went over to my bedroom door and locked it, so that no one including him would be able to just walk in and wake me up in the morning, I wanted to lie in and just relax tomorrow. Mercury’s P.O.V As the party ended everyone agreed that Cheyenne was perfect to be my Luna, my boss Luna. They were all impressed with how she held herself and how she handled the situation with Mary. I must admit watching her punch her turned me on a bit. “She’s one tough cookie.” Alpha Loren said, shaking my hand. “I think she’s lovely and I can't wait to go shopping with her.” Luna Christine said and I knew she had taken a liking to Cheyenne with how she hugged her. “She’s going to be one badass Luna.” Alpha Johnny said, while Loraine just kept her head bowed in submission. She had pissed me off and she knew it, I was glad that she was leaving, no one has the right to talk to my Luna like that and get away with it. After everyone had finally left, the only thing I wanted to do was to see Cheyenne, I wanted to hold her and kiss her. I walked upstairs to her room and turned the doorknob, but it wouldn't open. She had locked the door and this pissed me off because I told her never to lock her door. She was so lucky that I was tired otherwise I would have kicked the door off its hinges and stormed in there. I stormed off back to my room, slamming the door behind me as I entered. I hope she heard that because tomorrow if that door isn't unlocked then it will be knocked down. I stripped off my clothes and got into bed wearing only my boxers. At least I still had the scent of Cheyenne on my pillow, at least that would keep me calm and help me sleep tonight.
