Admiring Ketra Venture

Ketra's heart thumped against her chest as she attempted to locate another thing to snatch her attention. The allure was overwhelming and she wondered if she could get off stage without tripping.

'Calm down, please. Let's get done here. I have built this career for years and can't disappoint the people who believe in me.' Ketra urged her wolf hoping for an effective reaction.

Initially, she was affected by his absence and now with him breathing the same air as she was, she was extremely affected and she was on the brink of losing concentration which wasn't a good thing for her career.

Prime of all scents, Alpha Rain could gasp her vanilla-mint scent which overshadowed others. He decided to suppress his desire to cover her body from the sight of others and focus on her beauty and professionalism.

The designer must have had good taste to choose her as to close the show, Rain complemented in his mind, glancing at the fairy under the half-lit hall.

After countless pictures, the designer stepped forth to give a speech on his designs.

"Thank you everyone who made it here and thank you, once again for supporting Rosea. I hope everyone liked our designs this time and Rosea looks forward to working with you all." The designer appreciated and strode to approach Ketra who stood on the side.

As a model who represented their most exquisite and most expensive gown, she needed to be present till the show closes.

"Next, I would like to thank this beautiful soul for corporating with us all these years. She is not only a model but also a businesswoman and a shareholder of Roses fashion. Last but not least, she has corporates with us in creating all the designs that we showcased today. Thus, if you find them fascinating, give thumbs up to her." The designer spoke proudly and the crowd cheered.

But one thing was wrong!

The designer was putting his arm across Ketra's shoulder which made Rain's insides tighten in jealousy that he didn't even hear the man's words. Beads of sweat were forming on his forehead. His wolf was urging him to go forth and send that man flying then pick his mate and get her away from the lustful eyes of the crowd.

'Make him scram.' his wolf Carter urged but Rain shut him up.

No matter his emotions, he couldn't make a mistake approaching his mate. The stares she shot him whenever their eyes met was clouded with longing but warning as well.

As werewolves, they knew how far a bond can drive one, and giving the bond a chance to take over at this moment was never a good thing.

Suppressing the overwhelming attraction and focusing on getting a better idea of handling the situation later, Rain released a shaky breath. He was already lucky to find his mate once again and if he acted stupidly today, he bet there wouldn't be any more opportunities in the future..

Ketra bowed slightly in both directions as a sign of appreciating her supporters. She mouthed a thank you before leaving the stage to get herself a comfy outfit before leaving the premises.

Before leaving, she peeked to see that Rain was no longer in his seat and the emptiness filled her world again.

She kept herself professional even with turmoil in her mind and walked back backstage where new faces were waiting for her autograph. 

As soon as she stepped backstage, she was suddenly pulled by a strong hand to a private room. She wanted to scream out of fear but her mouth was covered with another strong hand.

"Don't scream," a husky voice warned when the door was shut behind them. 

"R-rain?" Ketra whispered when she recognized the voice that has been replaying in her mind since that fateful flight.

Rain didn't respond but rather pulled her into his embrace instantly. At this moment, he didn't think straight but he felt he was doing the right thing. He wasn't sure if he was pushing himself onto her or not but he knew that he wanted her in his embrace so badly.

"Please let me feel you like this for a moment, will you?" Rain pleaded and when he felt Ketra's gentle nod, he embraced her tighter, inhaling her addictive scent of vanilla-mint.

They stayed there for minutes even though Ketra didn't hug Rain back. They could both feel the sparks of their bond and it was a feeling worth creating.

"I-I gotta go," Ketra was the first to pull away and speak. No matter how much she enjoyed this, she needed to show up outside for those waiting for her.

His agent Scott would be turning the room upside down looking for her. Besides, it was suspicious how she disappeared in the middle of nowhere. Lest she didn't want to cause chaos or security check the footage and declare that she was kidnapped.

"Yeah. I mean sure. Where are you going?" Rain was at a loss for words. Their simple body touch and the sparks together with her scent of vanilla-mint had cleared and at the same time put his world together.

"My agent is waiting. There are also some new faces waiting for me." Ketra asserted in a soft voice which stirred Rain's heart into a paste.

His eyes were locked with her hazel eyes that called for him to read her soul.

Rain held Ketra's tiny and smooth hands in his and he wondered how long he can hold her like that before pulling her back to himself but first….,

"How about we step out together." Rain suggested but Ketra shook his head in denial immediately.

"I won't need any rumors and I don't feel like facing the media soon since I'm always doing my best to avoid them. I hope you understand this." Ketra voiced which made Rain understand where she was coming from.

"But I need to talk to you please. Can you create some time for us after meeting your fans? I can wait outside." When Ketra didn't respond, Rain took her silence as approval and pecked on the back of her hands before letting her go.
