Alessia’s POVI woke up to Ezekiel hovering over me with a worried look.“Cherie, you okay?” he palmed my cheeks.“What just happened?” I murmured confused.“The chandelier was about to fall down on you, I pushed you away at the right time” he explained.“Oh” I looked around. My parents along with Ezekiel’s parents looked worried as they stared at me. Em was there as well. However, I was surprised to see Alpha Trevor along with the council member Fabian and Irene.“The ball?” I looked at Ezekiel.“How long was I out?” I inquired as I tried to sit on the bed.“For half an hour” he replied.“What about the ball then?” I did not want all the efforts gone to waste.“Your mom announced everyone to mingle around. There is security out there who are keeping a watch out” he assured me seeing the worried look on my face.“That’s a relief”When I tried to get up, Ezekiel stopped me “You are doing no other thing but resting here” I scowled at him “Don’t order me around’ I hissed.“Cherie, you a
Alessia’s POVMany guests started arriving from the neighboring packs. Alpha Trevor also graced us with his presence.“Alpha Alessia, you look beautiful as always” he complimented me while kissing the back of my hand. I gasped. I never knew Alpha Trevor could be this charming. Even though he is around the mid-thirties, he does not look much of his age.“Thank you, Alpha Trevor” I beamed at him. Ezekiel cleared his throat from beside me gaining Alpha Trevor’s attention.“You ae surely going to have all the lady’s attention today Alpha Ezekiel” he even complimented Ezekiel. “Why thank you Alpha Trevor” a smile graced Ezekiel’s lip.“You are welcome” he nods at me.“I am going to meet with your parents” giving us a final nod, he went ahead inside to meet our parents.After sometime Alpha Violet appeared as well followed by her cousin beta Miles. Yes dad had decided to invite Beta Miles as well as he still unmated werewolf. I let out a sigh. Luna Ava is going to be in attendance today. I
Alessia's POVIt was finally the day for the grand ball. Everything was set. The ballroom was decorated like never before. The huge chandelier in the middle. It was bronte's crystal metal chandelier with golden and white lights which illuminated every corner of the ball room. The tables were set in the attached dining area near the ballroom. The chairs were decorated with satin silk cloth and every table held the name of the guests. Every detail was taken into consideration like always. I wore a mermaid strapless burgundy satin long prom dress. It highlighted my sexy curves. I wore my silver heels and a silver clutch to match the outfit. Mom had gifted me a pearl necklace. So that's what I wore. It was a whole set. I adorned my hand with a watch and bracelet. I had left my hair with natural curls.After completing my look, I took one look at myself in the mirror. Skylar gushed inside my head. Now that I have started healing, she has started to make her appearance every now and then
Alessia's POVMike dropped me off at my pack house. The preparations for the upcoming mating ball were in full swing.“Dad” I greeted him the moment I stepped inside his office.“Sweetie” dad gave me a soft smile.“Are you here to send in the invites?” Dad inquired.“Yes. As I had nothing to do today, I decided to complete the task at hand” I informed him.“That's good” he gave me a nod.“Falcon visited me right after your call. I think he just came to bid my bye before going his way” I informed him.Dad looked up in surprise “Falcon was something else. He was restless when you left him here” “I see,” I murmured.“I don't think he was healed properly” I added.“He was healing fast. Seeing his healing process, I don't know why but I felt he was one of us” dad muttered looking my way.My eyes widened for a second there. “He did not smell like a werewolf. There was no scent” I pointed out.Dad gave me a nod “Yes, that's why I did not give it much thought. But the way he healed so fast,
Alpha Ezekiel’s POVMy heart stuttered as I heard council Irene questioning my position. It was a direct attack to my leadership.“If it has anything to do with my behavior today with Oliver, I don’t think it is right. It is against werewolf Lycan community” I muttered.“We are not questioning your mate bond and we never did. You have always stood by what you deemed right and protected Alessia in your own way. That’s not why we are questioning your position” Irene started. The atmosphere in the room dropped a notch. It was tense. So tense, that we could actually hear each other’s loud heartbeat. Or maybe it was just mine and my mate’s. as for Irene and Fabian, they have nothing to be nervous about.Their position is not being questioned so their heartbeat won’t increase. And with that cold realization seeped in. I realized what Alessia was trying to explain to me just a few minutes back.“You as an Alpha should know better than to have a scuffle outside where the pack members are wat
Alessia’s POV“What are you staring at?” snapping out of my thoughts, I turn around to face Ezekiel.“Done with the meeting?” I asked instead. He raised his eyebrows at me as I countered his question with one of my own. Something he is not used to.“Yup” he replied as he came and stood beside me near the window.“What were you staring at?” he changed the question this time. Letting out a sigh, I replied “Falcon visited me” I informed him “Wasn’t he at your parents house?” I could here the confusion in his voice.“Just few minutes back, dad gave me a call saying that Falcon left. I guess he wanted to see me one last time before flying away to where he belongs” I replied.“You are upset” he pointed out.I finally turn to face him “I am not upset but troubled maybe” I repliedPlacing his hand on my waist, he pulled me closer to him. I could not resist and sought his warmth. He pressed a kiss to my temple“Does that make you feel better?’ he murmured.“A little bit” I mumbled. My voice
Alessia's POVOnlookers at the cafe were startled with the sudden fight that broke out in the cafe. Some children started crying in fright. During the fight, both of them pushed towards the window with force. It led to them breaking the window. I gasped and followed them outside. At first I let them have it out as I have full faith in Ezekiel.When people started gathering outside, I had to intervene.“Ezekiel stop” I pulled him back with force. He was breathing hard. I checked Oliver and saw Ezekiel surely did a number on him. “Next time, you better watch your tongue or I will make you unable to talk” I warned him. Oliver fumed in anger whereas Ellie looked shocked.“Let's go” holding Ezekiel's hand, I walked out of the place with our head held high.Once we got inside the car, I turned to face him “Are you okay?” Ezekiel looked anything but calm at the moment.“Baby” I placed my hand on his arm.He snapped his head in my direction “I am fine” he grits his teeth“Ezekiel, Oliver is
Alessia's POV I asked Ezekiel to send the diet plan to Alpha Melanie as soon as we reached the pack.Mark followed us inside after we reached our home. Ezekiel went to get fresh as soon as we entered so that I could speak with Mark. The level of understanding Ezekiel has of things, and the maturity he shows is something manh envy about him. He knows when to make himself scarce and does not interfere in my matters. That's what I appreciate the most about him.“Yes Mark, have you got the information?” I looked at him.“Here are the details about Alpha Jeremy” he passed me the file.“Thank you” I smiled at him.“You made sure right that no one knows about you keeping an eye on him?” I had specifically made it clear for him to be very careful. I don't want to cause Luna Ava any problem at the moment.“I was discreet in following him around. He is a womaniser and treats women very badly. I was shocked with some findings. I hope it will help you” he informed me pointing towards the file.
Alessia’s POVReaching the pack for dinner as I had promised, I entered our house. Ezekiel was watching some crime thriller on tv.“You are back” he smiled at me and did a double take when he saw the hawk resting on my shoulder.“Yup” I smiled back at him.“So, this is the one whom you rescued today?” Ezekiel asked as I settled down beside him on the sofa.“Yes. I found him on our territory. Once he is fine, I let him go in the nature where he belongs to” I murmured.“Good” Ezekiel tried to touch it but instead of accepting the gesture, falcon the hawk, pecked its pointed beak on Ezekiel’s hand drawing out blood.“Falcon” I chided him with a glare. “You, okay?” I turned my attention to Ezekiel.“Yeah” Ezekiel is full-blood Lycan so he healed fast.“He does not seem to like me” Ezekiel muttered as he stared at the Falcon who was now sitting near our living room window after I glared at him. He has quiet an attitude.“He is cautious of strangers” I corrected.“I guess so” Ezekiel turne
