Who are you?

ELLIE'S POV

It's been hours and Camilla won't stop talking about this Alpha guest we are having over and for that moment I kind of want to meet him and make fun of Camilla if everything she had said is not true but I still don't think attending the dinner is a good idea.. And thank mother goddess Camilla left my room in a hurry to dress up for dinner because it was almost time.... 

I just need an escape route. 

I know it's just dinner but here is why I don't like attending family dinners with guests... 

“Years ago when I was still a little kid around eight years old, my father had a guest  just like this and he was also an Alpha, young then but now would be like my Dad... He came around and we had dinner but he started looking at me with his weird ugly face and it was really bizarre! 

He made a fuss about being my mate at the dining table and he tried to peck my hand.. "Gross!!" I kicked his balls and my father thought it was too violent that he was just joking around but he wasn't smiling.... 

I'm not undergoing anything like post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) because I was able to kick his ass... I got my vindication but I ain't going through that hell again... 

I just need to run to my safe place and that place isn't in this pack house because there is nowhere I can hide that my best friend won't find me.. 

I looked into the mirror and I'm all dressed up like I was meant to meet my mate today. I don't know what exactly is wrong with Camilla why she had to dress me up this way... Just “ewww” I know I'm a beautiful young lady but I just think I would look more beautiful naturally without this whole makeup just because of a dinner... 

I opened my window to check downstairs and see if there was anybody outside but I saw no one.. 

I guess they had already entered, I held my gown around my knee and I lifted it up a little and I jumped down the window. 

I landed with my two legs bent and my hand on the ground to gain stamina but on getting down, it all felt strange, I looked back and I saw a very tall young man with a broad chest that looks more like that of a bouncer. His skin and his hair stood out from his all black outfit and I think I love that... His eyes glowed red as he looked at me. Is he an Alpha? What is he doing here? I stood there and couldn't move an inch as we both stared at each other. It was as if the whole world stopped for some minutes. My heart was beating so fast as he tried moving closer to him, he was getting closer to me and I still couldn't move. I stood there looking like a dummy until he put his hand in his pocket and brought a gun out.. He pointed it to me head

“Who are you?”  he questioned 

“Real___? ” I said but not too audibly, maybe I kept quiet for too long...  

“Really? You're seriously pointing the gun at me? ”I Inquired of, laughing? 

“Who are you? ” He asked again with his deep and stern voice but I'm not intimidated by it

“Who are you to ask? This is my f*cling pack! As*hole”  I said and he looked at me confused.. It’s getting dark and I can’t see his face well again but his red eye still glow and it is really unnecessary because those eyes ain’t going to scare me or intimidate me

“You know anybody can say that right? For all I know you might be a rogue..” He said still holding his gun upright 

“Really? Are you saying as an Alpha you don’t know the smell of a rogue? Do I smell rotten to you?” 

“Well.. You should know that I’m not in my Pack and I can’t smell a rogue here ...but your attitude sure is that of a rogue…” He said slowly  and he started moving towards me putting the gun down.. I stood in a place hoping he would stop walking towards me but he didn’t stop… is a psychopath? I took a step back but he moved closer till there was no space between us. I could hear his heart beating slowly while mine was beating faster as his hot breath hit my face, sending chills to my body. My leg weakened but this is so unlike me… what the heck is wrong with me? Why am I  feeling this way? 

“If this is your Pack then why did you jump down instead of passing through the door?” He questioned looking in the direction of the window…

My voice failed me and I couldn’t talk but look at him… He stared at me looking for his answer but am I ready to answer him this way? I think that’s the question he should ask himself …

“Can you f**king move back? Are you a pervert?”I said after minutes of searching for my stupid voice and I didn’t want it to crack..l moved back a little and I just think this guy won’t let me go in time…

“What? Do you know what Culprit does?” He asked but I’m in no mood to answer him because I know for sure he is trying to call me a culprit…

“I guess you know that they find offense in people too” He said calmly, can someone tell him to stop acting cute? I’m in no mood for that. Or maybe I am

“I need you to come with me to the Pack house and that way I will believe you and let you go..” she said

“Are you stupid or you’re acting stupid intentionally? I’m the Al-….” I stopped half way when I realized I was about to blow my cover… 

“What? Stupid? Me?”  He asked angrily and he came towards me. Is he going to hit me? Why is he coming at me so fast…

“I Won't be taking any more insults from you.. For your information, I called my beta already and he is on his way here with your “claimed to be Alpha” ”

“What? What is your  deal? You think you can come to another Pack and act all bossy? This is not your f*cking Pack so mind your business”  I yelled angrily, I might be grounded for this if my father finds out..

“So, why get angry? Just wait, in no time you would prove your innocence ”

 In no time they will be here and they must not find me here at least not until they finish their dinner because it’s a nightmare eating dinner with this guy here… I might die of indigestion…. I need to do something before my father gets here, I can’t run, he will surely catch up with me.

“Really? ” I said moving towards him.. when I  got closer to him I held his hand tightly and he tried to break away immediately. Why  is his impulse so damn fast I’m not killing him at least not yet…

We both looked back as we heard their footsteps approaching, he really  called them? I looked at him still looking in the direction of the footsteps, I kicked his two knees so he wouldn't run after me and I ran…

“Bitch!!!” He groaned in pain but I didn’t expect him to groan like that but it does make me feel good.. A soft smile escaped my mouth seeing the as*hole suffer

They call him a great Alpha but he got kicked by a lady and he groaned? I thought to myself as I ran in the direction of the woods. I looked back to check that he was nowhere to be found… what happened? Where did he go? I looked around while still running but I didn’t see him. I bumped into something that felt like a rock covered in clothes  and I fell to the ground. What the heck did I bump into? I opened my eyes and looked up a bit and I saw his shoe!

“Oh shit!!!”
