Emma's POV
I sat silently on the bed, the soft covers wrapped around her leg. Suddenly, I felt a tingle as her mate entered, Alix. Alix Moonwell, known for his power over all packs of New York and his rude attitude. Our age difference wasn't bad. I had turned 20 a few days ago while he was 24. He stares at me with his cold eyes, I looked up at him meeting his stare with my blue eyes. I quickly look down like a scolded dog, my wolf hopping for joy as he sat down beside me. He grabbed my chin harshly, forcing my eyes to meet his. "Look at me." He demanded, squeezing my jaw. I winced quickly as his deadly grip tightens. "LOOK AT ME!" His yelling voice made me flinch. I finally meet my eyes with his again, pulsing happiness running through my veins. Alix did something unexpected, he pushed his lips onto mine. I was greeted with a hard, somewhat loving kiss. My wolf howled with happiness, I could hear his replying to my pearly white wolf. I realize this guy stole my first kiss, I try to push him back as his tongue went to explore my mouth. I finally push him off and crawl away, whimpering. My wolf, confused. His expression was confusion. The sun settled on the horizon, the red beams define his muscles. God damn, look at those biceps. He notices me staring at his muscular arm. "What's wrong, baby girl." He tried to come forward but I suddenly give him a right hook. He looked shocked, holding his jaw. It was probably barely even hit for him but my knuckles were aching from the impact. He furrowed his eyebrows and left, annoyed and mad. I curl myself up, staring outside and daydreaming of leaving up here. He had demanded I stay in his room at all times due to people who wish to harm him can't get to me, I suddenly hear a voice, looking over I see a girl covered in black.
"Well! Look at miss lucky!" She exclaimed. I stare at her features a bit closer and her excited face went bleak as she waited for me to realize...
"Melissa?" I screech.
"Yesss!" She holds out her arms and I flung myself into them. The embrace was tight and loving. Melissa and I were best friends in elementary school and high school. We had to split up due to pack rules. It's been three years. We catch up talking about family, pack life our ranks. Turns out, she was beta to a pack but that got killed by Alix and he took her in. She suddenly pulls me closer, making sure nobody was in the room. "There's a fire escape on your porch and a party not that far from here. I say, we sneak out and go to the party." I question her.
"I can't-" She cut me short
"He can't keep you in here forever, right?" She said.
I nodded... I nod again just more confidently. We spent hours finding outfits. I wore a black dress that rested close to my knees. The back showing off my shoulder blades and the collar shapes like a v-neck. Melissa led me down the fire escape. We giggle, making our way to the party. As we enter we were greeted by multiple drunk people. Melissa led me to the alcohol table and handed me a shot. I've never had alcohol. I watched her and mock her. The odd tingle it made down my throat made me crave more. I grab another, gulping it down. After quite a few shots I was officially drunk.
