Nivea's POV:We were walking around the store grabbing dresses with the mermaid style I had in mind when Adam came up and said that he had to go to the bathroom. "I'm so sorry to leave you girls so soon but I need to go to the bathroom. " "Of course Adam. You go ahead we are not leaving here without you." I said. He smiled and ran off. I went into the changing room and tried on a beautiful dress. It was a cream color that hung off of my shoulders and hugged my curves all the way to my thigh then flared. It's perfect! I thought as I walked out to show Luna Angela. "Oh I think that is the perfect one Nivea!" She said. "You look gorgeous Luna. " I heard a male voice say. I turned my head and saw Kevin. "Oh. Thank you Kevin. What are you doing here?" I asked. I'm pretty weirded out that he's here but I brush it off. "My Alpha would like to talk to you about a peace treaty if you'd agree I can escort you. " He said. "Okay. Luna Angela do you mind waiting for me at the restaurant we
Keenan's POV:We were almost done organizing everything when my mom mindlinked us. 'Something is off. Nivea left with Kevin to visit his pack. Something about a peace treaty.' Mom said in our heads. We looked at each other with wide eyes. I decided to mindlink Adam to see what was going on.'Hey Adam, your mate just left with mine. Something about visiting his pack for a peace treaty.' 'Impossible. I left him at home. I asked if he wanted to come with but he Said no. I would've smelled him here. Let me see if he really was here. ' 'Wait. YOU WEREN'T WITH THEM?!' I screamed in his head. Me and Conri were furious. 'I had to pee. I'm sorry. I just spoke with Luna Angela and she said it was him. I don't understand, I would have smelled him. He's my mate. I wasn't that far away from them. I swear Keenan!' He pleaded. I could feel the sincerety in his mindlink. I knew he was telling the truth. "Lets go get the girls." My dad said. I nodded as we walked out of the office. 'Attention So
NIVEA'S POV: I woke up in a dark dungeon. It's cold in here, and damp. 'Goodness I hope Keenan finds me.' I said to Cassi. 'Cassi?' No answer.'Cassi? Please answer me.' I could feel her but she wasn't answering. Maybe she is asleep still from that wolfsbane. Oh if only me and Keenan would have done the marking ceremony, then he would be able to feel what I feel and maybe he would be able to find me. A big figure walked in. I could tell he was an alpha by his aura. "Hello Nivea. I've been expecting you. You must excuse the shackles and dungeon, I wanted to make sure I could see you as soon as you woke. " His voice was deep and gravely. " Who are you?" I asked, guarded. "My apologies miss. My name is Ethan Caraway. I am alpha of this pack. " "OK alpha I'll play your game. What do you want with me?" "Game madam? what game?" he asked stupidly. "I knew you were and alpha the second you walked into the door, I also knew you were born an alpha by how tall you are, I also knew you w
Keenan's POV: After three days of working and turning wrenches I finally finished replacing the alternator in my mustang. I stood up and ran my now black hands through my sandy blonde hair. I felt accomplished really. All that is now left to do is go and turn it over and try it out. Soon I heard the beautiful purr of the engine. "Finally finished?" I knew that voice well. My friend Adam came walking up. "Yup. Don't it sound wonderful?" I turned to him with a smile holding my hand out."She sure does. Of course you could have saved your time and took it to the shop and for a rental. " He smiles while shaking my hand. He thinks that just because my parents are loaded I should use that money without hesitation. It's true. my dad is the owner of a dozen hotels and my mom is a neurosurgeon. Oddly enough, they have three children. Mia, who is only 18. Zack, who is 21. And me, the oldest 25. Mia hasn't fully figured out what she wants to do with her career, Zack is helping dad run the
Nivea's POV: Finishing up with everything I had to do, I got up from my desk and went to my place. I didn't live very far from the pack house. Did I mention I'm a werewolf? yes I am. I don't relish that fact but sometimes it's good. Unlike other wolves, when I had my first shift I didn't find my mate. 24 years old now and still no mate. instead of trying to go looking I just buried myself in my work, and letting my wolf, cassi, to go for runs. Walking in, I get my shoes off and take my hair down. after getting a much needed shower, getting a pair of shorts and a white T shirt, I grabbed a soda and a snack and sat down to watch a movie.just as the movie started playing my friend Abigail eagles right through the front door without knocking and charged in my direction. "So I take it we aren't knocking anymore?" I ask as I raise the drink to my lips. "You really need to get out. girl you've been working and coming home and watching chick flicks. Come out with me and Courtney tonight
Keenan's POV:As we pull up to the bar Adam gets giddy like a kid in a candy store. I look at him and laugh. "Why are you so hyped up right now? it's just a bar. " "Because bro. it's not just a bar. it's a new bar for our kind. ""I still don't understand. " I said shaking my head and getting out of the car. "Maybe you'll understand when we get in there. " He smiles and patted my back. He practically ran inside and was at awe of what he saw. Girls that was half naked, alcohol line the back wall. neon signs all over the place. 75 inch tvs on at least ever corner of the bar. I'll admit it, the place looked good. finding a seat the waitress comes up to us and smiles really big. "What can I get for you two gentlemen?"I look at her and say "Two beers please. "I look at Adam and is keeping attention to some guys grouped up in a corner watching the game. I could tell he wanted to go over there and talk to them. "If you want to go over there you can. " I say matter of factly. "Nooo! y
Nivea's POV:We get to the bar and I get out of the car. immediately following me was my friend who was, lets admit it, acting like this was the day my life changes. "Come on Ni!!" She squeals grabbing my arm dragging me towards the building. As we are now running inside she giggles with excitement and leads us towards the bar. "I want a rum and coke please. " she said to the bartender then nudges me. "Tell him what you want. ""Oh. I want a adios motherfucker please." He makes our drinks and hands them to us. I nod to him as a sign of thanks however before I can pull my cash out, Abigail puts a 20 dollar bill on the counter and says "Tonight is on me. " and grinned. "If you say so. " I grin back. After I got a couple sips down I caught wind of an intoxicating scent. I could smell cedarwood and pine. I look around but can't tell for sure where it's coming from. "Do you smell that?" I lean in to Abigail and ask. "if you mean sweat and alcohol the answer is yes. " she said and g
Keenan's POV: I walked outside to clear my head and started looking at the street. I don't know how long I was out there but I quickly stiffened when I smelled that scent again. I looked back, following the smell when I noticed a girl running into a big guy. I quickly run over there wrap my arm around her waist and pull her back. Sparks ignited everywhere her skin touched mine. My wolf started bowling and jumping with exciting chanting one word. "MATE MATE MATE!!" Dazed by this I released the girl and stepped back. The guy she ran into looked down at her and said "excuse me miss I didn't see you there. are you ok?" I don't know why I got angry and possessive over this stranger but she stood up and shyly said yes she was. Then she looked at me with the most beautiful blue eyes I've ever seen. like the beach. I honestly melted. She preceded to tell me thanks for catching her and I noticed where that scent was coming from. her! I hold out my hand to introduce myself. "I'm Kernan...
