Vanessa (Chapter 3)
The drive takes forever. Make-up and hair were done at the house. Marty refused to let me wrinkle the dress in the car. We got hotel rooms for the night, so we are going to meet there for this meeting. Once in the hotel room I stand looking at myself before I leave to meet Marty in the hall. I hope my parents would be proud. The dress hugs me in all the right places, just enough cleavage to show off the goods, without giving them away. I am no means skinny, but I am not all soft either. I walk out of the room to see Marty standing there in a suit. It is so weird seeing him this dressed up, but from the look he is giving me, he thinks this is weird as well. I can feel the over protectiveness coming out. To calm him I put my arm on him. We walk down to the big meeting, thinking this would be a normal event. We had no idea what we were walking into.
We enter the Bar, all eyes turn to look at us. Though the only eyes I see are sapphire blue. Marty is talking to the waiter who points right at tall, dark, and smoking hot man with the sapphire eyes. His mouth lifts into a start of a small smile. Though it’s gone so fast I wonder if I was seeing things. Marty starts walking, he is whispering into my ear, but my heart is beating so fast I don’t hear him. Before I can focus, I am standing right in front of Sapphire. Then everything snaps back into place. I put on my best smile and hold my hand out, “Vanessa Prime, nice to meet you.” “Asher King, the pleasure is all mine.” He takes my hand and the world disappears.
I blink and find myself in space, holding hands with Asher. His voice is as deep as the sea and as smooth as silk. “Ves, are you okay?” I blink at him, “Ash.” Then a light brighter than the sun blinds us. He moves in front of me to shield me. “Alpha Primes, welcome to the Midnight Star.” A great voice booms at us. We look up to see none other than The Wolf. It has to be him. In our legends shifters come from The Wolf. The first of our kind. The first Alpha. His eyes flash with his wolf as he looks at me and then to Ash. Not realizing I moved I am standing besides Ash holding his hand. “The Midnight Star is the relm of the Alpha Primes, as you both are, the stories your families have told you are true. Venessa your ancestors took Prime as the last name due to the prophecy that one day from their line the Alpha Prime would be born and if she found her True Mate, she would then have a change to become Alpha Queen of the wolves. Asher your family took the last name King, due to the same prophecy that the Alpha Prime would be born and then if he found his True Mate, he would then have a chance to become Alpha King of the wolves. You both are to be the future of all the wolves. You will change the world. After you die, this is where you will come. But no fear for both of you are to live long lives and change the Wolves forever. You will bring our world into light!”
Asher looks at me, smiling. I smile back. As soon as our hands touched, I knew my wolf was right from the moment we laid eyes on him. He is our True mate. Our life is playing around us, too fast to see details, but enough to know we have a journey together. “My Vanessa, my mate, will you have me?” I freeze, this is all so fast. Is this what it’s like to find your mate? I feel in my heart that this is, I feel my power shining out. And by the look on Asher’s face he can see it too. “Ves, you are beautiful.” I look down and see purple shining all around me. Asher gasps when I look at him. “Your eyes, they match!” Confused I start to ask him but then silver is all around him and his eyes change to silver. I laugh and kiss him. I have no idea why, but I know that in my heart that was what I was supposed to do.
I open my eyes and I am back in the Bar. Looking into Asher’s eyes, he smiles as he comes back. He kisses my cheek before taking me to our table. Marty and the other Beta are staring at us like we grew a third head. We look back at each other and wait. Marty sits next to me and Asher’s Beta sits next to him. I extend my hand to introduce myself to his Beta. Asher growls deep in his chest, automatically my panties are wet from the sound. I look at him in shock with the rest of the table. He stops, like he finally realized the noise was coming from him. “Sorry. Vanessa this is Blake, Blake, Vanessa.” Blake nods in my direction. He finally looks to Marty and says, “Do you know what the f**k is going on?”
Marty starts laughing and then smiles and looks at me, “It seems our Alpha’s are mates.” I nod and look at Blake, before he can answer another wolf shows up. “Alpha, I am sorry I am late, traffic sucks this time of year.” A pretty brunette comes into view. She gives the Alpha a kiss on the cheek. Before I know what I am doing you have pushed her to a corner against the wall. Her eyes become wide as she looks to Ash for help. “He will not save you Bitch.” She looks at me with humor in her eyes. “Well b***h he won’t let his only sister get killed by his mate.” She bows her head in submission. Your wolf laughs, “we look like total idiots.” I can’t help but agree.
Asher removes me from pushing his sister up against the wall. “Vanessa, it’s okay. Come here honey.” I look at him shy, not believing that just happened. I blush. Marty laughs, “Asher you have to be her mate because I have never seen her blush and I have known her since she was born.” The brunette laughs and sits down next to the Beta, “So Alpha, at least I do not have to worry about my brother, your Beta seems fierce.” All eyes stare at her in shock. I on the other hand am used to this. Marty looks at her and shakes his head and looks at me with a smile, “See Alpha, being your Beta is sexist.” The brunette gasps and bows her head again, “I am so sorry, I can’t apolig-“ I hold my hand up to stop this. “Honey, this is not the first nor will it be the last time someone has done this. Just don’t do it again and we will be great. My name is Vanessa, what’s yours?” “Clark, Alpha Vanessa.” I smile, “Nice to meet you Clark. I think we will become great friends.”
