Chapter 3 -3-

The furious hurricane blue eyes that he had heated my body in the most enchanting way. The suit was tight, showing the rippled muscles underneath along his strong body structure. I observed him as he stood right in front of me, his face was the most beautiful thing I saw; his full lips and ruffled brown hair made him even more of a masterpiece. I almost rolled my eyes at the thoughts in my mind that seemed too poetic for my liking but they were true, he was a masterpiece.

Our mate was very handsome. Lace purred in satisfaction and I found myself smiling at the warmth of the Alpha that was as observing as I was.

Alpha Raden had to ruin the moment. He separated us and The unknown Alpha looked like he wanted to cut his head off; Nobody was allowed to even place a hand between newly found mates. I wasn't expecting to find my mate right after I shifted. I thought I had to go through the mysteries or land in another territory to be able to find my mate. Turned out, it was an Alpha which made him have rights to possess me as his Luna.

I slightly paled as I remembered the promise I made to avenge my mother and sister's death. I couldn't let them both notice that so I would have to search secretly for the one who started the fire.

"She will go with you as the rules of mating still applies but that doesn't mean there will be peace between my pack and yours." The crowd all seemed to disperse quickly because Alpha Raden commanded them to in order not to listen, he treated us like we weren't a part of his pack at all, he doesn't let us listen to what he decided nor let us into any occasions with other packs. We were like prisoners to him.

"Trust me, Raden, I strongly still fight against you." He hissed at him and grabbed my arm tightly. I wondered what kind of a problem their pack faced with mine but all thoughts flew out the window when his voice made me shiver at how deep it was. We both remained quiet and I felt even more lost. We would have been kissing and hugging each other because of how strong our scents meshed indicating the mating was powerful. There was even distance between us when we were seated in his black Range Rover.

I didn't know which was scarier, the silence my mate spread around us or the deranged looking driver with a full scar on his face. I was fidgeting every minute because I wanted to jump on my mate in glee and sniff him but seeing how cold-blooded he was made me doubt myself. What if he hated how I looked like? What if he thought I was a creep when I stared at him? Oh god, maybe he saw my wolf and thought she was ugly.

Hey! Lace snapped at the insult in my head and I let out a tiny chuckle that didn't go unnoticed by the daunting Alpha.

"What's so funny to you?" He asked with a stone cold expression. I was mesmerized until I forgot that he talked to me.

My eyes widened, "nothing that should worry you." Picking my words was a tough choice since I was raised to be confident and strong opinionated but the way anger radiated from him made me weak.

He huffed and turned to the window like he did before and I just crossed my arms with an ambiguous scowl on my face. So much for mate interaction.

He claimed my wrist in his big calloused hand and dragged me like a rag doll to the extent where I just snapped.

"What is your problem?" I shouted and his eyes darkened, the driver coughed nervously for me behind us, he knew how much his Alpha was an asshole.

He lifted me up on his shoulder and I gasped, wiggling my body against his strained arm, the mate touch was even more electrifying, what was he going to do to me? My wolf vision filled with terror when I saw wolves heads scattered on a field a mile away. He was a brutal person apparently.

His pack stilled in front of their Alpha when he placed me down, they all frowned at me and took in my black long sweater appearance. The Alpha growled and they all bowed their heads at him frightfully like they were scared he would kill them all. Understandable considering his anger management problems. I was dreadfully pained that he hadn't been nice towards me, I wasn't expecting him to be this way towards me.

"She is your new Luna." These words made the pack angry but they hid that vastly when Alpha looked at them angrily.

Their welcome to me was even more hurtful, I was like a rotten skittle in a package of perfect skittles. I wasn't going to be treated like a normal werewolf here nor respectful for a Luna. I was an outsider but maybe they just felt protective of their pack, I didn't even know their pack name because nobody told me about it.

He intertwined our hands when he sensed my need that Lace, my wolf, emitted and I felt floods of relief wash my stressed body. That was the first nice skin contact he made. That didn't please the pack as well as they glared at me.

The mansion in front of us was captivating to my eyes, the vintage swirls that covered the white mansion along with Victorian styled windows made me feel even more trapped. I hadn't liked big mansions since I was a small kid and mom showed me Alpha Raden's mansion along other smaller ones. I felt suffocated in such big amounts of spaces. All I wanted was a cozy home like the one we used to have.

"You don't like it?" Shock flitted the Alpha's face, he was probably not used to these uncomfortable reactions but like I said, I was solid on my opinions. His hand engulfed mine when we passed the pack earlier to his mansion.

"Space is useless, it only makes me think even more negatively," I said expressively as I gazed up at him beside me, my blue-grayish eyes connected with his steel dark ocean blue ones, not resisting the sizzling mate tension between us as my wolf wanted to touch him.

"Found another Luna to fill in my place?" Dark laughter was heard as a girl strode slowly to us with hazel eyes.
