Kavyaa landed her eyes upon another man and she held in her scream as his face came into view.
Startled by his sudden appearance, she quickly took a step back only to accidentally hit something at the back that she forgot was there.
The sound of it wobbling from the table made Kavyaa quickly turned around to try and catch a vase that had a bonsai plant growing out of it.
Unfortunately, it smashed, hard on the marble floor.
There was a moment of silence in the room. Kavyaa felt terrible for knocking down the plant.
"Whoops. I um..I can fix that?"
E: My, what a kind and considerate girl. Sasha's not going to be happy about this.
M: Whose Sasha?
Ethan raised a brow at his cousin.
E: She's a hot she wolf I'm currently going out with.
M: Currently?
E: Not that it's any of your business, but I tend to drop the girls when they get clingy, especially after the bad moon.
M: You mean Blood Moon?
Mark rolled his eyes standing near the window observing how Kavyaa was looking worriedly down at the vase she accidentally broke.
Ethan followed her dark brown eyes and smiled down, answering her previous question.
.
.
.
"Hmmm? I wonder if you can fix a vase that is from the 1600s?" The new smooth dark voice, said startling her yet again.
"Six...Sixteen hundreds?" Kavyaa went to kneel down to gather the priceless shards. Ethan tilted his head in curiosity.
M: What the hell Ethan, stop her!
E: Stop her? Well if she injures herself by accident, I'll be more than happy to treat her wounds with my licks.
Ethan being a curious beast was quite determined for a taste.
M: Don't you dare taste one drop of her blood!
Mark internally growled through his mind link, making Ethan raise a brow at him.
E: My, aren't you protective of her?
Mark quickly got to her before she reached out to touch any of the sharp shards.
Kavyaa gasped seeing a sudden tight hold on her wrist from Mark. Her heart secretly trembled from his sudden fierce hold, like she was about to do something so forbidden.
Noticing her worried features he then relaxed and let out a short sigh of relief.
"It's ok sweetheart, you don't have to worry about that."
Stop freaking out! He was just looking out for you so you don't injure yourself from the sharp ceramic glass.
Kavyaa shot him an apologetic look, then turned her attention back to the man with severe marks running down the left side his cheek.
Don't stare!
Don't stare!
Don't stare!
But it was too late, Kavyaa was taking in all her new guardian's features, along with his half handsome face as well as his half clawed one.
The window suddenly opened out, making her startled with the loud noise.
"I'll get that. Looks like the wind is strong tonight."
Ethan said, turning on his heel. Kavyaa noted he was quite tall as Mark who had a hand around her shoulder in a comforting manner.
Kavyaa relaxed against him. Unfortunately, her new guardian seemed to scare her the most.
E: I'm impressed she hasn't screamed or passed out at my sight by now.
"Ethan, this is my sweet friend Miss Mia Chaves."
E: Sweet? You sound as if you've already tasted her?
Mark flashed his eyes red at his private comment.
Kavyaa on the other hand felt yet another wave of a powerful vibe, this time coming from a very quiet looking Mark. He looked like he was secretly pissed of at his friend but somehow, he was containing that anger up inside of him.
"Miss Chaves, it's a pleasure to finally meet you."
Ethan put out his hand, and Kavyaa shook his hand like the well mannered girl. But as she did so, she felt a very strong energy flaw through her.
"Nice to meet you sir."
Ethan smiled warmly at her reply.
"Please take a seat..."
E: On my lap.
M: Ethan!
E: Would you relax, I'm just kidding! Jeez, you're such a jealous wolf.
On the other hand, Roman (Ethan's inner wolf's name) became increasingly curious about the human girl Mark had brought them.
There was something quite off about her scent. For she did not have a distinct reek of a pig or lamb, which was quite common for a normal human scent.
More over, Ethan noticed she was shy, quiet and timid to meet his eyes, and quite observant to her surroundings.
"There are a few things we need to go over now that i'm your guardian." Ethan said towards the silent looking teenage girl, with dark chocolate eyes.
Mark guided her over to his big desk and before they had a chance to sit down, the door burst open.
M: What now?!
E: Oh no.
A woman with a really tight red dress came inside.
She gasped stunned to see the broken mess on the floor.
"Ethan? Who the hell broke this?! This was worth at least a 30.000 dollars for the auction!"
Kavyaa nervously gulped, she broke a vase worth 30.000 dollars!
Mark noticed her worried look and squeezed her shoulder in reassurance.
"Apologies, it was an accident."
Mark said making the she wolf's attention.
She glanced over at Mark, whom she didn't recognise as the previous Alpha since she was technically a rogue who had seeked asylum in Ethan's territory 3 years ago.
She was a fresh member of the pack and most of the she wolves hated her since she was dating Ethan.
Then her sharp dark turbulent eyes landed on the human girl.
M: Damn, she's hot.
E: What about your mate? Or have you forgotten about her too because of this lamb?
M: I simply meant it as a compliment you jerk.
Mark admitted through his private mindlink conversation excluding the new she-wolf.
Ethan smirked.
E: I know.
"Sasha..." Ethan started.
"Don't you Sasha me, do you know what time it is Ethan?" She angrily faced him.
"Babe, please calm down, I had an unexpected arrival."
Roman on the other hand groaned out of annoyance in Ethan's head. Although she was fine as hell, she was quite a temperamental she-wolf.
All she did was suck up to him, and max out his credit card throwing it all away on expensive dinners, shoes, clothes and bags, and she always made up excuses to go on patrol duties, deeming her as quite the lazy one.
{R:} I hope you know she's slowly robbing us.
{E:} No she's not.
{R:} Yes she is Ethan, she's a damn gold-digger and you know it!
Ethan shut of his inner wolf's thoughts as he went towards her.
"Arrival? What about you arriving late to a very prestigious dinner party I planned with the high socialites from the lamb society?
Do you know how much money they are willing to invest in our hotel?"
Hotel? Damn her guardian looked seemed rich. Her true surprise, however, was the presence of his girlfriend.
How tight was that dress? Could the girl even breathe in it, and why were half her boobs out on display, like HELLO!
Was she that desperate for attention and why on Earth was she not feeling cold in this damn room?
"I'll get Jaxson to reschedule with them, where is he by the way?"
{R:} They probably ran away when they saw her coming.
{E:} Those pricks!
Ethan made a mental note to deal with his betas later.
"Don't know and don't care. You know, you should just fire them and I should take their place? I'll make a great secretary for you."
She stroked his arm and leaned into him giving him a quick peck on his lips, and growling low in a lusty manner.
{R:} Urgh, no I thankyou!
{E} Hey, be nice, she's a great auctioneer for us.
Kavyaa concluded. A couple of things whilst looking at her attire. However, she had no idea what she meant earlier on.
"What's the lamb society?" Kavyaa, a.k.a Mia whispered curiously at Mark.
Before Mark could even answer her question, the angry blonde bombshell approached Kavyaa.
"Evening and who pray tell who are you little girl?"
She scanned her up and down at what she was wearing. Most people that came to see the Alpha were mainly rich and dressed in designer wear.
This girl wore no branded clothes and Sasha immediately concluded she was a poor peasant girl.
Kavyaa found her quite intimidating and not only that, she also felt that her aura was quite odd too.
Why was she getting strange vibes around her? It couldn't possibly be the fishes in this place that were messing with her animal alert system, could they?
She was just about to respond to her, when suddenly Mark put her behind her in a protective manner when she started sniffing the air around her.
"Nice to meet you Sasha, I'm Mark Gambini Ethan's..."
"Ew, what are you hitting on me? Let me put a stop to that brain fart of yours right now. Girl with asses like mine, do not talk to boys with faces like yours."
She snapped ignoring Mark, leaving him speechless along side a shocked Kavyaa too.
What a rude b!tch.
Ethan broke out in a small amused grin, leaving Mark stunned. This wasn't the response he was expecting from a she-wolf. Had his charm with the ladies died since he was officially taken?
E: AaaahahhaHahahahahaaaa! My girl is pissed at you Mark!
M: I can see that, perhaps you're not performing well enough in bed for her? I can smell her sexual frustration from where I'm standing.
Ethan rolled his eyes. He was an excellent performer in bed.
E: I know how to keep the ladies satisfied, but it looks like you've lost your mojo.
"Excuse me, he was just being polite and introducing himself to you and he was not hitting on you at all, you damn slut!" Kavyaa quickly defended. Mark grinned ear to ear.
Ethan was shocked by the girl's sudden outburst. His inner wolf wagged his tail in delight finding her quite amusing.
{R:} 20 points for the little lamb.
Mark on the other hand cracked a short grin, by the fact his precious human friend was sticking up for him.
M: Oh I think that I have found myself a cheerleader. She is always right when I need her..
E: What are you singing to Omi?
Sasha glared sharply down at the girl besides Mark. She was more furious to see a human who had no right being here at all.
"Slut? Who do you think you're talking to, you rude little charity box!"
Sasha went to grab Kavyaa roughly, but Mark quickly saw her move and pulled back a heart racing Kavyaa, immediately setting her on Ethan's desk.
"Charity box! Is that all you can say you low class slut looMMMMM!"
Mark quickly clamped her mouth shut and whispered in her ear.
"Don't let her get to you Mia." Mark let go and Kavyaa took a deep breath calming down.
He then quickly turned his back on Kavyaa and sharply looked at the angry insulted she-wolf, creating a wall between them.
"Sasha calm down." Mark said in his calm voice.
"Calm down, that little twig face called me a slut! How dare she!"
Kavyaa scoffed at her silly insult?
"Twig face, is that all you got you desperate looking housewife slut, whore oh here's another one for you incase I missed it, you sleezy hooker!"
{R:} Oh I like this one, can we keep her?
{E:} No.
Ethan couldn't help but secretly smirk at the girl's fire. He liked feisty girls. They were just his type.
"Mia please behave yourself." Mark said shaking her head at her sudden row with the girl whom she had no idea was.
"What? She started it."
E: That's true Mark, perhaps we should let them fight? Maybe throw them in the mud and see them rough each other up?
Ethan remarked in a humorous way making Mark contain his sudden laughter at that thought.
M: Shutup Ethan, that's not funny. You know what? Maybe this is a bad Idea, I can't trust you and leave her here with the rest of the wolves. What was I thinking? Screw it I'm taking her back and relocating her.
When Kane that prick was out there hunting for her. Mark had done the right thing to bring her here.
Plus, if he left now with her, he wouldn't have a chance to kick his a$$ and redeem his honour.
E: Woah, we have a deal, and you don't need to relocate her. I'll take care of her Mark. I'll keep her safe from Kane. You can trust me.
M: Can I?
To show his loyalty towards him, Ethan pulled his girlfriend by the waist and easily picked her up with one hand, making Kavyaa heart spike a notch.
She already took notice that he was quite a strong man and no doubt packed muscle underneath that suit of his.
"Enough! Sasha will you please excuse us, we are still in a middle of a meeting?"
"You're blowing me off for the likes of this poor b1tch girl?"
Kavyaa heard that and got off the desk.
"Poor GiMMM!" Mark quickly pulled back a resentful Kavyaa and quickly clamped her mouth with his palm before she could spew any more fury toward the irritated shewolf.
"Relax sunshine, she's just messing with you."
E: Sasha I'll see you in the morning now goodnight!
He shut the door in her face, leaving her stunned and infuriated.
Just who the hell were those people?! Looks like she didn't have the Alpha quite wrapped around her finger like she thought she did.
Ethan turned back on his heel, and walked towards them in a great professional manner.
"I apologise for my girlfriend's rude behaviour. Quite honestly nobody has the nerve to talk to her like that."
Kavyaa calmed down as she looked back at the man with the deep scared face.
He was well dressed in his dark suit and tie, and spoke in an elegant manner.
Despite his awful scars going down the left cheek, Kavyaa noted that he had the most beautiful dark blue eyes she'd ever seen.
"I'm sorry, If I was out of line, I didn't mean to be that rude."
{R:} You can be rude around me any time sweet cheeks.
{E:} Sweet cheeks?
{R:} Well she does have sweet looking cheeks doesn't she?
{E:} Sure, she looks cute, but remember she's off limits.
Roman rolled his eyes at his human self. He didn't care if she was off limits. There was something about her that he was already drawn to.
"Nonsense, I quite enjoyed seeing that quarrel, sometimes it's good to have a little fight, wouldn't you agree Mark?"
E: Preferably in the mud.
M: Ethan! Will you stop that silly notion of yours?
"Yes, so long as it's not with her."
He darkly reminded his cousin.
"He's quite protective of you isn't he Mia?"
Mia? Oh that's right. That was her new identity name.
Kavyaa smiled and entwined her hand with her cop bestie.
"Yes, well he's my Mark, and I wouldn't be here right now if it wasn't for him."
Kavyaa gave his hand a little squeeze meaning what she said about him. He was her saviour that saved her from the road and no doubt that lurking wolf.
Mark was touched. The only person to call him his was his loving wife whom he had to get home to by tomorrow morning.
E: My? Sounds like she's claimed you?
Mark cherished his friendship with the young human female girl, and kissed the back of her hand making her smile warmly at him.
Roman growled out suddenly inside of Ethan's head.
{E:} Dude calm down, what's wrong with you?
{R:} Doesn't that bother you?
Ethan lied to his wolf, for a part of him wished that the girl saw him like that.
The look she gave him was full of warmth, kindness and love. It was the look that he yearned for hears.
{E:} No, it doesn't.
{R:} Liar.
Ethan could see that she held the highest trust for him, and he wouldn't dare break it.
"Thankyou sunshine."
E: Sunshine?
M: Can we please get back to the meeting. I need to get home to my mate.
E: Ofcourse sunshine.
Ethan mocked making him roll his eyes.
Mark pulled out the paper work in which Ethan quickly scrolled through.
"Mia Chaves sweet sixteen."
Her heart beat spiked a notch making Roman quickly catch on to her nerves.
"Umm yes that's correct."
"Hmm, your birthday isn't stated here."
"It..It's not?"
"I guess I forgot to put it in. Don't worry, it'll have it on her school badge once she starts tomorrow."
"I start school tomorrow?!"
