Next day for the annual Dance party, Nick got himself in a black Tux and made sure he looked presentable.
His mother being the main organiser of the event, he knew she would chew him up if he didn't meet her standards.
Arriving at the hall decorated splendidly by candles and soft pink Peonies with decorative lights hanging on the high ceiling Nick started walking towards the bar which was located in the corner.
He greeted everyone on his way greeting and thanking them for attending the party.
His mother the pack Luna had arranged the event so exceedingly well that everyone seemed to be having a good time right when the party had just started.
The guests were chatting around, drinking and some were already dancing to the slow music which was being played. He let out his senses to inspect if Shay had arrived but to his disappointment she was not in the hall.
"Oh honey your tie is crooked"
Nick heard his mother walking towards him squealing.
"Hey mum"
Nick gave her a smile and a peck on her cheek.
His mother was a beautiful women. She had deep blond hair and Nicks eyes. She never looked her age making most who weren't pack members mistake her as Nicks girlfriend instead of his mother whenever they went out.
According to Nick and his siblings she was kind to everyone except her own family sometimes.
But they all knew she loved them the most even if she tried to discipline the five of them most of their lives.
Tugging him to a corner his mother started fixing his tie while blabbering about how Luke didn't want to attend the party and how she had to let him stay home alone and all her worries about the kids rebellious stage.
Luke was the youngest of Nick's four siblings. Not only that, he was the odd one out of the whole family. Being born to a family which was naturally social, Luke was shy and timid.
He was not fond of socialising and preferred to stay at home and watch cartoon.
Being the kid of the family made Nick and his siblings baby Luke all the time. With the age gap of 15 years Nick was fond of his baby brother the most than his other 3 siblings.
Knowing his youngest brother would have being uncomfortable at the event Nick decided not to comment on his mother's ramble. He didn't want to take neither Luke's or his mother side.
Following his silence,
"Wheres is Rosy sweety? Is she running late? Today is a big day you know, You could introduce her to all the other pack Alphas now that you guys are engaged"
His mother stated finally done adjusting his tie.
"Mum I don't think that's a very good idea. It's not very wise for her safety."
Nick lied.
Sure he felt guilty but it wasn't a completely a lie either. She would be in danger if everyone knew Nick will be marrying her in a month.
An enemy could even think they were mates.
His pack the Royal Moons had alliance with almost every pack in the country. And the current Alphas and Nicks connections went beyond to other countries as well. But still some threats always remained.
"Oh well yes I suppose you are right."
his mum replied thinking about what Nick said for a while.
"Alright honey I'm going to see your dad. you behave alright."
giving him a small hug she left.
With Nicks huge built he had to bend his body down into half to return the hug. Smiling at his mother walking towards his dad Nick returned to the bar and grabbed himself a beer only to feel another hand looping around his elbow.
"Nick baby I've been looking for you everywhere. Were you busy? You didn't return any of my calls"
Rosy went on with her high pitched voice.
"Hey Rose, Sorry got into some urgent work. Anyway I did need to discuss something very important with you later when this is done, so keep a time on your schedule tomorrow for me ya?"
Nick smiled.
Rosy was in a body fit red slit dress showing off her right leg and and she had her hair pulled sideways. She appeared hot and elegant effortlessly.
Nick did feel guilty towards her knowing the girl genuinely liked him. But the Mate pull was so strong on him and his attraction toward Shay was undoubtedly undeniable. He knew he needed Shay in his life more than he ever needed Rosy.
"Fine fine, I forgive you, I know you are busy. I'm free after 1 tomorrow so lets meet up for coffee in the evening then"
Rosy was glancing around examining the crowd in front of her giving smiles to people who looked at them.
"Oh look Tina is here. Babe lets go talk to her"
Spotting her fired Rosy tugged Nicks arm lightly.
"Nah you go on and talk to your friend Rose. I need to find Jay"
Nick smiled. That was an obvious lie of course. He already knew where Jay was at since they mind linked right after Nick arrived.
With a disappointed face Rosy sighed.
"Well OK then. I'll come back to you when I'm done"
grabbing a glass of champagne from the waiter she left to the girl who was waiving at them now.
Nick leaned over the bar stool which was kept near the counter and began to observe the crowd.
He could see Jay sitting near the corner table next to the dance floor with his Mate on his lap and Lilly blushing deeply whispering into is ear.
His two other sisters were socialising with the crowd and his other brother was surrounded by girls who were fawning over him.
Not that the guy minded being the Casanova he is.
Rosy was still chatting with her friend and some other girls had joined the group. Sighing Nick chugged down his beer.
Without a warning Nicks Wolf surfaced on his mind. 'She is near'.
This made Nick flabbergasted since this was the first time his wolf came in to his mind willingly.
The wolf preferred to wait quietly inside Nick observing, not bothering what Nick was up to unless they were in their wolf form.
'She is? Good, I can't wait to see the doll.' Nick Chuckled in his head. And started observing the entrance.
And the angel from heaven decided to descend on to the hall. She is so beautiful.
Nick couldn't stop glaring at the beauty of his mate.
Shay had let her deep violet hair down with soft curls. She wore a soft peach chiffon dress with a crew neck and long loose sheer sleeves covering her long arms. The dress fitted her slim body perfectly. And the waist below was a puffed up tulle skirt which stopped at the mid thigh.
Mid thigh?
'Too short' Nick and his wolf growled at the same time.
Shays long slim legs were showing off in the little dress and and her black ankle strap high heels which had a peach rose near the upper strap end made her legs stand out even more.
She looked cute but sexy at the same time. The little doll is going to drive me crazy one day.
Thinking Nick hurried towards her only to be halted by the Westanias Alpha Raphael.
"Nick, It's so nice to meet you again. This is an excellent party your pack has organised"
he smiled shaking Nicks hand.
Nick wanted nothing else but to hurry over to his Mate, but he knew it would be rude to ignore an Alpha from another pack. So calming himself he stood and conversed.
But while he did, he made sure to gaze at Shay at the corner of his eye without averting them.
Not letting the man in front of him know his distraction. For the first time in his life Nick used his werewolf abilities for a very selfish reason. To stalk his mate. I'm beyond saving now.
Nick could see that Shay hurriedly going toward a couple who was on the dance floor and her face heat up.
He could feel that she was annoyed and angry. What's wrong. Why is she angry. He couldn't help but keep on glancing at his Mates direction.
Finally ending his chat with the Alpha Raphael, Nick turned so he could walk towards his mate, only to see Shay jumping on the man she was talking to before and tightly hugging his neck.
The man hugged her back and did a spin around the dance floor carrying Shay on his arms .
'I'm going to rip his head off' Growled his wolf.
At that moment, there was nothing else that that Nick wanted to do as well.
'Ya Lets.' A small growl escaped his lips.
