Chapter 3: Mafia Lords and Pepper Spray.

The next day…the next morning?…Hours later?… Anyway, I wake up to Alexis and Luana screaming at each other. Hazel is so lucky to have a job! Hazel is Luana’s roommate, she’s quite nice. Short brown hair with big brown eyes, average height and curves in all the right places – what do you expect, I’m part succubi (female sex demon).

“What in the jellybeans is going on?I need my sleep, okay?” I ask them as I release a fustrated growl.

“Wake up and take a shower while we decide on your attire, I was thinking royal blue but Alexis wants sky blue. What do you think?Royal blue or sky blue? Royal blue who has been with you since forever or sky blue…?” Alexis scoffs as Luana speaks.

“I don’t want blue at all!How about black!” I quickly run to the bathroom. They can’t possibly argue over black,right?

Moments later, I find myself dressed in a sleeveless white dress which ends just above my knees, it hugs my body perfectly, exposing my curves. My hair was straightened and then tied to a messy bun. My nails were painted black which matched with my hair. Alexis made me wear neon black heels and a lucky charm bracelet which was gold plated. At last they allowed me to leave…or so I thought. I walked out of my room and went outside where he was waiting for me. As I was about to reach him, Luana and Alexis popped out of nowhere with a purse.

“You forgot it,is he the guy?God he looks like a mafia lord! Girl you gotta keep your purse nearby. I kept some pepper spray and breath mints” Luana whispers to me.

“I’m pretty sure he heard you but thanks… why the breath mint?” I ask them.

“You might kiss” Alexis walks away after whispering back at me.

Luana also walks away. I look at him, a smirk forms on his face. Oh he heard us! I walk up to him.

“I’m surprised you actually came, I was expecting…to stand here for hours…” He trails off as he takes a look at me “The wait would be worth it though”

“I will turn back, don’t try your luck!” I snap back at him.

He shrugs and opens the door to his black SUV for me before he also steps in. Silence engulfs us as he drives to an unknown destination but it is oddly comfortable.

“So you’re a werewolf,right?” I ask him

“Yes, and you?You smell like a werewolf but…how do I put this?…your smell is more…”I interrupt him midway.

“I smell bad?” I ask him but he just chuckles

“Nah…your smell is more..exotic!” He focuses on me for a while.

“Oh, I get that a lot” I stare at the disappearing environment.

I’m not about to tell someone I don’t even know the name of, that I’m a hybrid! No!

‘What harm can he do? He’s OUR MATE’ My wolf tries to reason with me but I just ignore her.

“From guys?” He asks me through gritted teeth.

Is this some movie or what?So what if guys told me I smell exotic..This is why I don’t want a mate.

“Yes,what will you do? It’s not some fairytale,okay?Even if you find the guys, you won’t be able to do anything to them especially since they have a higher ranking than you” I scoff at him, his knuckles turn white as he drives faster.

“Higher ranking?” He looks at me

“That’s what I said” I say in a duh tone

“I’m an Alpha” he says imperturbable

Boom,drops the bomb!

“Alpha?Oh really?Which pack?” I ask him.

“Blue Crescent Pack, rings a bell?” He asks me.

I look at him in disbelief before bursting into laughter.

“Nice joke! I’m supposed to believe that you’re the Alpha King,cute!” I look out the window.

“You should laugh more, it suits you” he looks at me with a smirk. I stay silent until we reach the border of a pack, I look at him as he stops in front of it.

“What are you doing? I’m not going there,oh hell no!” I attempt to open the door but he locked it, tuchè!

“Open this door,now…” I’m stopped in my tracks as he cups my face and brings it closer to his.

“Trust me” I feel the sparks intensify as we remain in that position for a while.

I search his eyes for any sign of dishonesty and find none so I…trust him….for now.

“Fine, I trust you” I push him away and look away from him.

He stays silent and starts driving, I see a few wolves bowing in respect. Maybe he’s a beta or Alpha in this pack?

“So…which pack is this?” I ask him but receive silence in return. Rude much?

“Greenwood Pack” he parks the car near what seems to be the Alpha’s house. We both get out of the car and are met with the curious gaze of the Alpha.

“What a pleasant surprise” The Alpha smiles at us.

“Don’t act too surprised, obviously I’d visit when my sister is your mate” he replies curtly.

“True but at least tell us when you’re coming,will ya?” A petite lady with forest green eyes comes out of the house. She looks serene!She must be the Luna. “Is she?” The Luna walks up to me with a friendly smile and holds my hands. I can’t help but return the smile.

“Yes,she is my mate” he replies.

“I’m…so sorry, my deepest condolences” she moves away from me “I can’t control it at times” I look at her in confusion.

“She can see someone’s past and future as well as their past lives” The Alpha explains.

“What did you see?My past life,my past or future?” I ask her.

“You were born to be a Queen and you’ll do great… I saw your past life and a small glimpse of your past, I want you to know that my brother is here for you and he would never hurt you” she explains to me.

“Why did you wish your deepest condolences, Sarah?” My mate asks.

“I saw how she died… how she was murdered while trying to save her people. Don’t worry, they’re safe” Sarah reassures me “I must rest now, it was a pleasure meeting you and I hope you get all the best in life” Sarah walks away.

“You can stay as long as you wish” The Alpha leaves after telling us.

“Wow…that was… ” I drift off and look at my mate, he stares at me intently.

“I want to show you something, can you shift?”

“Ok” I simply agree and go behind a tree to shift into my white wolf with blue eyes, she walks back to our mate and we find his grey wolf with green eyes. We run for an hour or so before we reach a waterfall, it was amazing! His wolf goes behind a tree, meaning time to shift so we also shift and luckily I had my clothes along with me, tied around my waist so I wore them again. I found my mate wearing his jeans but no shirt, not that I’m complaining. His six pack doesn’t look bad…who am I kidding? It’s fuckin’ hot! I blush as I realize that he caught me staring.

“Let’s go for a swim or are you just gonna stand there and stare at me?” He adds with a chuckle.

“Oh,shut up!” I jump in the river and start swimming alongside my mate…I should really ask him his name, it’s awkward calling him my mate.

‘but he is our mate’ Zaria whines in my head.

I sigh and ignore her.

“Can you at least tell me your name,now” my mate asks me as he swims closer to me.

I grin as I realize I can take full advantage of this.

“Akgna!”
