Kevin POV
She was so small, but she radiated presence and a certain charm. Her red hair came loose and free to her waist, only controlled by a small side braid. The big eyes, like two clear and deep pools where I could deliciously drown, the feminine and small face, with well-shaped and defined lips. The dress, which was a strapless, was tight in the region of the breasts and came to the ankles, perfectly framing the wonderful body of the person who wore it. Although small, she couldn't have been more than five feet tall, she had wonderful curves, well proportioned, a strong and athletic body, it was evident that she exercised frequently.
She had a tattoo on her right collarbone, it looked like a brush stroke, black with a single hint of green... something shapeless, without a clear definition, something abstract... which made me even more intrigued, what would be the meaning from that tattoo?
She walked in hand in hand with her brother, they showed confidence and attitude, they seemed synchronized, almost as if it was always natural to complete each other.
He was well-dressed, with his chin high, looking around fearlessly, scrutinizing everyone who came close. I knew these actions, it was the attitude of an alpha analyzing the battlefield, he held his sister's hand as if it were the most important treasure in that place, with affection and protection, he positioned himself slightly in front of her, ready to protect her. there. We couldn't judge him, it was clear how many of the werewolves who were there were thirsty for a moment closer to the woman he accompanied.
I myself wanted to rip the neck of everyone who looked her up and down with desire, I wanted to hide her in my arms, just for me, to smell her only close to my face, her heat only for my body. What was this uncontrollable, animal feeling inside me, Kassius was impatient to get closer to her.
"Bring her here, I want that scent here," he said inside my mind. "Calm down Kassius, I don't understand your reason for this, but I can't approach her, without valid reasons. And honestly I'm not even interested, I came only for the strategic reason of this party. Profitable Alliances" I replied, making it clear who controlled things.
"You don't understand yet, but you will. And when you do, I won't control you, so you learn to listen to me." His voice was firm and even sarcastic, which gave me goosebumps.
- Good evening everyone. I'm Noah Robertt, future Alpha of this pack, and I'm flattered that you're all here. Not only to enjoy the night with us, but also to accompany us as brothers in this important moment that is our first move.
The future alpha's strong voice was calm, he spoke looking everyone in the eye with confidence. He projected his voice, which made me sure there wasn't a single person in the room who didn't hear him clearly. But the only voice I wanted to hear, to know what it was like... didn't speak.
- The night has just begun, enjoy dinner, music and company. - With that he finished his thanks and they went to where his parents were, while I faced that woman and smelled that smell, moving away...
I need to know more about her and understand the reason for Kassius' desire for her.
Ailee POV
- Happy Mother?! We gave a thank you speech and even got fancy. A great advance, don't you think?! - Noah said, with a playful smile, as I went to lean against the big closet that was my father. I needed a backup, since I was going to spend all night in those heels.
- You did very well, my son. But I'd like to understand why your sister didn't say anything. - Mom replied with a serious expression.
- Speeches were never my strong point, you know I'm lazy to be someone important. But I kept my posture and even smiled. You should feel victorious, just for that. - I replied being super witty and trying to get rid of the family meeting.
I turned around and walked over to the drinks table, I needed a drink and that glass of cold red wine was calling me.
I heard my dad defending me to my mom, being daddy's little princess sometimes had its perks. But I could also hear her saying that as a daughter of the pack's alpha, I should have a little more leadership posture, I would be a luna one day.
It was at that moment that the image I had always hated came to my mind... a strange being who would be called my mate, who would take me away and who would always be above me. I refuse to be just another luna, who gives support. Others may not see it, but my father is more mate than my mother's alpha, many of the decisions are made by her, and executed by him, to the merit of the pack. If my mate is less than that, he doesn't deserve me.
But all my thoughts were funneled into one thing, an incredible musky smell, strong and imposing, I couldn't get away from that smell, it was stronger than the smell of the wine itself, which was in the glass in my hand. I started looking around, where that smell would come from, despite realizing that there were several men looking at me, waiting for an opening to talk to me, whether for alliances or interest in the alpha's daughter, or simply for interest in my body, none of them showed it. own that smell.
I felt my body taking me to the middle of the open space, I could see my brother coming too, maybe he had smelled the same smell as me and was looking for the owner, because it was such a strong smell, it could be an enemy, or something interesting... but when we got to that space together the full moon reached the height of the sky and i felt my body burn, i could feel my bones shifting and realigning to form a new body.
