“Yes, sir...” I said, unsure of what had just happened. Travis stood up, and I followed his lead.“Please shut the door.” Alpha John said as I left. “I guess go get dressed. I’ll pack breakfast.” Travis said. “I’m sorry you are in this position.” I said. I put my hand on his arm as Ethan came around the corner. His eyes locked on my hand. “Get changed.” He growled and grabbed my arm, pulling me towards the elevator. Punching in the code, I ripped my arm out of his. “Get off me.” I growled back. The door opened, and he shoved me in. “The fuck is your problem?” I yelled when the doors shut. “Are you fucking Travis?” He pushed me against the wall. “Is that a serious question?” “Answer it!” “You would fucking feel it if I was, dumbass.” Shoving him away from me, the doors opened up. I ran down the hall and to my room. I knew he was following me, but I was pissed. I was able to slam my door shut, or maybe he just allowed me to, but either way, I was alone. How could the Moon Godd
“I’m going to go swimming with Stella and Conner. At least they like me.” Kyle got up to go swim as we busted up laughing.“Did you know Alpha James and his son and betas are coming tomorrow?” Callie asked me. “I did not! I haven’t seen them in ages!” I was actually really excited. “Dad said they had some business.” Callie got a twinkle in her eye. “His son, Rif, is hot as fuck.” Natalia said. “Yes, he is.” I agreed. It was funny. Now I found Ethan. No one was as good looking as they once were. “I’m going to just go...” Travis sighed. He walked over to Ethan and Damon. “Do you know them?” Callie asked. “I do. His Luna was like my second mother. Rif was another brother to me.” “When was the last time you saw them?” Natalia asked. “Been a few years. Things got dark when his Luna died.” I said as I rolled over to see them and drink my drink. We were in a circle, so when we were on our stomachs, we could see each other.Alpha James’s luna died in a freak accident. They were driv
“I don’t think that’s it. Our mother died, and he watched my father.... Well, you know.” She was silent for a while. “I think he is afraid to love anyone.”“I guess he has till I get back on the plane.” I sighed. “I know I have no right to ask, but can you meet him halfway? Maybe try to get to know him? I know the bond is strong and if he gets to know you, he won’t be able to resist.” “Or I just end up heartbroken instead of just rejected.” I concluded. “I’m sorry. I just know how stubborn my brother is.” Callie sighed. “Please don’t tell the group. I’m surprised he even told Damon.” “I won’t. I only figured it out after how they were acting. Ethan watches you. He never watches girls.” “Lucky me.” I looked up at the sky. There were only a few clouds, but this was already my happy place. “Grace...” “Listen, I can’t promise anything, but I’ll try to not ignore him either.” That was the best I could offer. Callie squealed like I told her she had an unlimited shopping trip. Hugg
“What time do I need to be ready?” “You got a little over an hour.” “Perfect. Thank you!” I said as I heard their shower turn on. She handed me some shoes as well. We were the same size in everything. Waving bye, I went to the elevator and got to my room. I have expected Ethan to be in there, but he wasn’t. The disappointment I felt surprised me. Telling myself it was for the best, I got in the shower. With this outfit, I needed to have my hair pulled back. With a thick eyeliner but not too dramatic. Maybe red lips to finish the look. My vision was perfect as I stared at myself in the mirror. I curled my hair enough to make my low, messy bun look voluminous. There was a knock on my door, making me stop admiring myself in the mirror. “Hello!” I said as I answered it. Stella was standing in front of me in a lilac dress. It was fitted with a sweetheart neckline. Her three-inch heels really sealed her look. With curly hair, she had a purple smoky eye. “You look fucking amazing!” S
“She does...” Damon held my hand lightly as we weaved around the tables until we got to ours. He sat by Callie, and the only open seat was on Ethan’s right side, next to Natalia. Callie and Damon were across from us. Everyone was quiet, so I started the conversation. “So, what’s good here?” “Try the seafood. It’s really good.” Travis said. “The steaks are mouthwatering.” Kyle said. “Grace, they have a crab pasta.” Stella said. “Do you like crab?” Callie asked. “It’s my favorite food.” I gave her a little smile. “I bet you are getting the shrimp and Grits, Stella?” “You would be correct!” “Good afternoon! My name is Matt. Can I get everyone started with a drink?” “Can I get a glass of whatever red you have?” Callie asked. “Sure, and you, sir?” “Crown and coke,” Damon said. “Cranberry and vodka.” Stella said. “Crown and coke,” Travis said. “Same.” Kyle said. “I’ll take a red too.” Natalia said next. “Jack and Dr. Pepper.” I ordered. “Crown on the rocks,” Ethan said. He
“If you say so.” I smiled at her.“Come on!” Stella whined. “Yeah, I need to see those moves!” Callie chimed in. “Everyone ready?” Ethan asked as he stood up. Not sure if he was coming to my rescue or if I just hoped he did. Either way, I was thankful for the change of topic. “Fuck yeah!” Natalia got up and started walking towards the door. Stella and Kyle were right behind her. “You okay?” Travis asked as I downed the rest of my drink. “Fabulous.” I said sarcastically. “Sounds like it.” “I’m okay. Just taking it all in. A lot has happened in a short amount of time.” I knew Ethan was listening and from the bit I could feel from him, he was annoyed. “You sure?” Travis pushed. “Yeah, this buzz is going to help me lose up at the club.” I gave him a fake smile as we walked to our car. “I’ll hold you to that,” Travis said as he walked to his car. I got back in mine as Ethan started the engine. “It’s been forever since I have been dancing.” Callie was feeling good by the tone of h
“Bust it!” Callie yelled as she drug me out there. Stella and Natalia were already shaking it. Lollipop by Lil Wayne was on, giving me a good beat to join in.“Damn girl!” Natalia tried to mimic me. “There you go!” She was starting to get the hang of allowing your ass to twerk. Some guy came up behind Stella. I watched her look back and nod in approval before turning around and slipping into the crowd. “I need another drink!” Natalia yelled. We nodded as she walked off. Callie took my hand and turned me around so I was grinding on her. I was bent over, so when I came up and saw Ethan’s eyes drilling into me, I was a little taken aback. Damon wrapped Callie up and slipped into the crowd as the song changed to Motivation by Kelly Rowland. Ethan slipped his around me, pulling me tight against him. His leg went between mind as I grinded my hips against him. I could feel his breath against my ear. Slipping my arms around his neck, we got lost in our own world. Just the feel of our bodie
“Come on.” Ethan took my hand and pulled me to the high top table he had previously leaned against.“Stay here and I’ll get you another drink.” He walked away without even waiting for a reply. “Well, aren’t you a sexy little thing?” I creepy guy walked up to me about a minute after Ethan left. He was a wolf, but had a hint of a rogue. Like he had recently become one, and the stench hadn’t fully taken effect. “I’m not interested.”I missed the second guy that came up to the other side. “Want to dance?” Guy 2 asked.“Nope, I’m waiting for my friends to come back.” Ethan was nowhere to be found, and neither was Damon. I could take one, but not two. “We can keep you company.” They leaned on the table on either side of me. “I don’t need company. Please leave.” I said firmly. I let my eyes shift to let them know I wasn’t playing. “Darling, that will not work on us.” He grabbed my arm.“Let her go.” Damon’s voice sent ice down my spine. Ripping my arm out of his, I took a few steps back
