Crossroads Café 25 : Come with me
Bianca looked at him from below. The moment he had said those words, it had seemed a shiver had run down her back. Strangely, it wasn't a bad feeling, but something soft and comforting. She whispered a "Merci, monsieur..." before turning on her heels toward the bar. The music was over. The spell had been broken. Stunned murmurs arose as the evening gown returned to its original shape of a waiter's outfit with each step she took. _ GO TO MATE!_ growled Mr. Wolf. Listening only to his animal's voice, Black leaped forward and grabbed Bianca's arm. His wolf cried and lowered his ears as he saw the pain on their soul mate's face. "Putain(#Fuck)," Bianca whispered. Mr. Fantastic's grip tightened like a cruel vise on her skin. Some people, close enough to the scene, quickly turned around, fearing retaliation if this young woman provoked the Mad One's fury. Black slid his hand over Bianca's wrist and started walking, pulling her with him in his wake. Bianca met Dhara's gaze. She c
Crossroads Café 26 : box and bouquet
Bianca let out a deep sigh under Mat's amused look. She had come home, exhausted and excited by her last night's encounter. "You should rest today, B. We don't have any reservations. It'll be quiet," Mat said calmly as he restocked beer bottles in the fridge. "It's an hour's drive from the Crescent Moon Pack to the Crossroad Café. You must be exhausted." Bianca slowly nodded and leaned forward, elbows placed on the bar. "I saw him again." "Saw who again?" asked Mat without looking at her. He was working quickly, skillfully lining up bottles one after the other. "Mr. Fantastic." Mat knocked a bottle to the floor, but thankfully, without damage. He quickly turned back to her, widening his eyes. "THE Mr. Fantastic?" "The very one," she said, shaking her head. "And mind you, he asked me to go with him tonight." Mat quickly straightened up, nervously running his hands through his hair. "Oh. And, did you tell him yes?" She bit her lower lip and nodded again. "I told him yes in the
Crossroads Café 27 : Date
Bianca nervously smoothed the fabric of the elegant black evening dress against her belly. The top of the dress had a V-neckline and half-length sleeves that stopped below the elbows. A large black satin band encircled the waist and tied at the side in a large bow tie. The bottom of the dress was a long black skirt, slit on the front of the right thigh, sequined with silver. The fabric was so fluid that it seemed to ripple with her every move. Bianca had styled her hair in a messy bun on the bottom of the neck. She had left a few loose strands framing her face, bringing a touch of effortless, discreet romanticism. She had never really liked to put make up on. But, this evening, she had put on mascara and used lipstick without trying to attenuate it by biting in a square of paper. She had seen other products in the bags Beta Duncan had brought her. On the other hand, she'd found it wrong to use make-up given to her by another man to go on a date. "Bianca, your date is here!" sh
Crossroads Café 28 : Romanée-Conti & Glenlivet
Amber was scrubbing the bar counter in a big circular motion. She had been informed at the last minute that Bianca would not be joining her tonight. She couldn't stop thinking about the human, especially if everything had gone well last night. Some omegas had rushed to take her place, but Amber had told them to enjoy the evening. They were at the bottom of the pack's social ladder and had little opportunity to enjoy themselves, and this was the perfect time for them to have a night out as guests. With the back of her hand, she brushed aside a lock of light brown hair and threw the dirty towel into the sink. "Good evening, a glass of wine," ordered a male voice. Amber's she-wolf couldn't help but growl at the creature standing before her. "Leech..." she merely said as she recognized the species he belonged to. The vampire had excessively pale skin, but the she-wolf couldn't help but envy the long blond curls that reached down to the small of this guest's back. "Red wine?" "Plea
Crossroads Café 29 : I love…
Black had wholly frozen in place. In his mind's eye, he could see Mister Wolf leaping and rolling around, howling at the Moon, then yelping with jaw-dropping happiness. The Alpha was tightening and loosening his fingers on the wood of the counter. He was trying to regain his composure, and especially to keep control of his wolf. _Mark her now! Mate loves us! You're wasting our time! _ Mr. Wolf growled between jumps. Bianca felt the shoulder she had been leaning on stiffening. She looked up and raised her eyebrows at her partner's tense attitude. She felt her cheeks turn red as she noticed the veins in his hands and forearms bulge, giving Mr. Fantastic an even more dominant appearance. "Wait a minute," Augustine said curtly, raising his index finger in the air. A growl that sounded more like a roar suddenly came from Alpha Black's throat. Augustine's hair stood up as if a gust of wind had come out of nowhere. Dhara had begun muttering incantations, quickly spotting the individ
Crossroads Café 30 : excited?
Bianca started to lead her date to the woods when she stopped in her tracks. She turned her head, feeling Mr. Fantastic's grip tighten on her wrist. "That will have to wait until later, Bianca. We have to have dinner first," he said, pointing his thumb behind him. Bianca bit her lip and looked over her partner's shoulder. "Euh, I don't think so. It's a buffet, and it won't make a difference whether we go now or later." Black pulled her to him and put an arm around her waist. He leaned into her ear, taking the opportunity in the process to fill his lungs with her scent. "The buffet is for the anonymous crowd, and we have to go there," he explained, looking up at a mansion. Bianca pursed her lips and looked around, searching for her friends with her eyes. She didn't want to go there and wanted to stay here and enjoy the evening quietly. She understood that Mr. Fantastic was an important person. He was wearing the same brooch as Augustine, and she had concluded that it was some em
Crossroads Café 31 : voulez-vous coucher avec moi ?
Alo rocked quietly on his rocking chair. He took a drag from his cigarette as he looked away. The air was becoming thick with moisture, heralding a terrible storm. A warm wind was slowly beginning to blow, making the rusty metal of the weather vanes creak. "Another crazy night," he said to Mat. The young man was sitting on the highest step of the stoop, his hands resting behind him and looking into the distance. Both men's eyes took on a golden hue. Then a sudden flash of lightning fell. "Is Bianca with the Demented One?" asked Alo. "Yes, that's what the spirits want," replied Mat. The storm began to roar, shaking the earth and surrounding nature with anger. Alo took another drag on his cigarette. "I think we can close for the night. No one will come." * * * Black didn't know what to do. His wolf and his Luna were very clear about their intentions for tonight. But he was utterly stunned. He wanted to drag Bianca out into the woods, but the still rational part of his min
Crossroads Café 32 : et puis, merde !
Black and Bianca were led out of the large building. The Omega who had served them during dinner was also the one who served as their guide. The poor man was shaking from head to toe and barely dared to turn around to ensure that the Mad one and his partner were following him. "Is everything okay?" Bianca asked softly as she trotted alongside the man. He let out a small cry of terror and quickly nodded. He could feel the icy chills on his spine and the Mad one's murderous gaze. Bianca squinted her eyes and leaned forward slightly to read the name written on the man's badge. "Oisin?" she said, using the French pronunciation. "Oy-sine, perhaps? How is your name pronounced?" "It's-it's pronounced Osh-een," he replied. "Oh Chine?" "No, Osh-een." "Ocean... Osh-in... Osh-een! Brrr Osh-een! That's it! I made it!" she said happily, giving him a bright smile. She held a hand to greet him, "I am Bianca." The O
