Two young girls were having a blast at the bar which was showing wildness at night, playing a game of truth or dare with their friends. The night was winding down, but their game showed no signs of stopping. The place was filled with the strong scent of alcohol, and the young crowd was caught up in the lively atmosphere.
"Seriously? Come on, girl, I can't pull off this dare," Amethysta McCarlock complained when she heard the challenge thrown her way."It's just a simple dare, your own dare. All you have to do is find a good-looking guy in this bar and ask him out. What's so hard about that?" Eira Oryn teased, winking mischievously."For fuck's sake, I'm just a regular human here, not like you folks with all the alpha, omega, and beta stuff. I can hardly step into this werewolf-owned bar.""And if I get caught, I'll be the one in trouble," Amethysta frowned, trying to shake off the unpleasant thoughts of encountering the guards."No need to fret. My fiancé basically runs this whole place. If you get into any trouble, I'll have him sort it out. Now, go on, find yourself a guy to chat up," Eira encouraged, giving her friend a gentle push out of the VIP room."You'll never change, with your cheeky ways," Amethysta wrinkled her nose, earning a chuckle from Eira at her reaction."Not until you find someone to have some fun with," Eira teased, sticking out her tongue before closing the door behind her friend.Amethysta pushed her way out of the group playing and weaved through the bustling bar, facing some difficulty in the process. After a bit of jostling, she finally broke free from the crowd and found a spot at the bar, ordering her favourite cocktail, one that wouldn't knock her out."It seems you're not a big fan of the hard stuff," a tall guy standing next to her commented, to which she casually shrugged."I'm just trying to avoid getting hooked. It can be a real pain to break free from its grip.""But you've got everyone here under your spell, Miss," the man persisted."I'm flattered, Mr.," Amethysta paused."Icarus... Icarus Dempsey," he introduced himself with a polite nod."Nice to meet you, Mr. Icarus.""I'd be pleased if you'd use my name in that lovely voice of yours," Icarus suggested with a charming smile.Amethysta gave an awkward chuckle, fully aware of the flirtatious direction this conversation was heading. She silently cursed herself for accepting such a silly dare."Let's cut to the chase. I got a dare to ask a handsome alpha stranger out on a date. I basically picked you at random, Mr. Icarus," she admitted, berating herself for her bluntness."How refreshingly direct. But I appreciate it. If you genuinely want me to be your date, then I'm more than happy to accept," Icarus replied, raising his glass, making the situation even more uncomfortable for Amethysta. Nevertheless, she found the courage to keep the conversation going."I honestly didn't expect you to say yes, especially after my rather impolite approach.""No need to worry about it. I'm genuinely happy to be your date. By the way, what's your name?""It's Amethysta... Amethysta McCarlock."She tilted her head, locking her gaze with his. The moment he settled into the seat at the counter, she had decided he would be the one to fulfil her dare."I didn't anticipate your eyes being so captivating. They're such a unique shade of violet," Icarus complimented, as she blushed slightly and looked down."I've heard similar compliments before, Mr. Icarus.""My apologies. I'll try to come up with a better pickup line next time."Little did she know, her heart raced in her chest as if it had a mind of its own, pounding louder than the music. He was openly flirting with her. Her fantasy world crumbled when he posed a question."Are you from this territory? I mean, this pack?""Of course, but you do seem like a foreigner," she deflected the question, and he responded calmly."Even in these dim, flickering lights, your perception is sharp, Miss Amethysta. I'm not entirely a foreigner, but I have mixed blood.""Oh... Honestly, you still look quite handsome," Amethysta mentally facepalmed herself for her unexpected bluntness."I'll take that as a compliment. So, shall we proceed with our date?"Amethysta gave a small nod and rose from her chair after finishing the last sip of her cocktail. The young alpha followed suit, and together they made their way out of the bar, navigating through the crowd with some pushing and pulling."Wait, let's take a selfie so I can send it to my friend and prove I completed my dare," she said, pulling out her phone. Icarus agreed, and she snapped a quick selfie, sending it to her friend Eira."You know, you don't have to go through with this date just for the dare. My dare is already done too," Amethysta pointed out."Since I'm new to this place, how about you be my guide for a few hours and show me around? That way, you won't have to worry about not completing your dare either.""At this hour?" Amethysta's eyes widened."The night is still young, Angel," he said, his voice low and husky, causing her to momentarily freeze. She simply nodded, no longer resisting the idea. Her jaw dropped once more when they reached the parking area, and she saw a Lamborghini waiting for them."You've never seen a Lamborghini before," he remarked, waving his hand in front of her face as she let out a discreet chuckle."Not just any Lamborghini, but a super limited edition model that was released yesterday in the market, and here it is, right in front of me.""Chuckles... I like this colour.""Seriously, you didn't even register the car yet.""Yes, and now my new car is graced with your presence," she chuckled at his cheesy words and hopped into the car. She indicated the direction as they drove to some random street shops."You brought me here? A street shop," Icarus expressed disappointment as soon as he got out of the car."You don't know the charm of night street shops and street food," she countered with a smile."Of course, I don't know, especially when the very definition of beauty is standing right in front of me, Angel.""Enough with the cheesy lines, Mr. Icarus. You're trying hard, but I'm not that easily won over," she blurted out, concealing the slight blush on her cheeks behind her hair. A mischievous smirk danced on his lips.After two hours of exploring the city, Icarus's phone rang, interrupting their time together."Well, I have to head out," Icarus said."That's alright. I can take public transport from here.""Nah, let me give you a ride. You're my responsibility, Angel.""Oh, come on. Enough with the 'angel' thing," she giggled, her laughter catching Icarus's attention differently."No can do because you really do look like one."Amethyst playfully rolled her eyes and hopped into the car, signalling that she wanted him to drop her off. He pulled over at the entrance of the street."You sure you'll be alright on your own?" he asked."Yep, and I could use some fresh air too. Don't worry, my place is nearby, just a few blocks away."He could sense that she didn't want to reveal too much about her location to a stranger, and she was right to be cautious."Send me a picture you took earlier," Icarus casually handed her his phone. Nervously, she nodded and sent a picture. It turned out he just wanted to exchange numbers, a smooth move on his part."It was nice meeting you at the bar. Let's hope for more encounters in the future. Angel," he said."You too, but seriously cut out the 'Angel' thing," she replied."I'm not making any promises," Icarus winked at her. Thankfully, the darkness of the night concealed the blush on her cheeks, or she'd have been caught red-handed.She sighed and got out of the car. They bid each other goodbye, and as he accelerated away, she began her 15-20-minute walk home. A stranger, an Alpha, and a foreigner she had met today. It had been a peculiar day, and she was relieved he hadn't discovered her human identity.The Lamborghini Aventador Ultimae Roadster came to a halt in front of an abandoned factory, casting an eerie atmosphere around it. The hooting of owls in the distance only added to the unsettling ambiance and could even a strong alpha hesitate before entering the decrepit building.Icarus, engrossed in his mobile phone, stepped out of the car with a mischievous grin on his lips. "Finally, you're here, my twin brother," a voice echoed, causing Icarus to look up from his phone, making him come out of the enchantment of purple eyed beauty. "Why the rush, little brother? We have the whole night to get answers from him," Icarus replied, his tone calm and composed, despite the eerie surroundings.Isaias couldn't help but roll his eyes at his older twin, a habit that never failed to irritate Icarus."Don't you dare roll your eyes at me, Isaias," Icarus warned sternly."I won't listen to you," Isaias retorted defiantly."You told me you were nearby and would be back soon. What took you so l
The next day at college..."What the heck, girl? You went on a date but didn't get laid by him? Seriously? I thought you'd at least have some fun with that handsome dude," Eira exclaimed loudly, not caring about their surroundings."Oh, come on, Eira. Stop with your dirty mind. I don't want to gossip about that. You know that's not my style," Amethysta said, covering Eira's mouth and glancing around nervously. Currently, they were in the college canteen, discussing their encounter with the handsome alpha from the previous night."He must be of foreign blood," Eira speculated."Nah, he's of mixed blood," Amethysta corrected her."Holy..." Before Eira could let out an exclamation, Amethysta quickly covered her mouth and hushed her."That's why he looked so attractive, like a total catch. If I were you, I'd have had a one-night stand with that alpha," Eira gushed over the young alpha who had shown interest in her friend. Amethysta rolled her eyes in annoyance."You have a fiancé, for goo
"If you used to live here, why did you leave?" Amethysta inquired, her gaze fixed on Isaias, who carried an air of solemnity."It's our fate, Princess," Isaias sighed heavily, as though weighed down by a dark history. This revelation left Amethysta feeling a mix of pity and unease, prompting her to create a bit of distance between them. She couldn't deny that she didn't quite trust this man, despite the captivating aura he exuded."Why do you keep calling me Princess? That night, you called me Angel, and now it's Princess?" Amethysta questioned, her confusion evident. Isaias chuckled, finding amusement in her innocence."Because you are a princess," Isaias stated, causing Amethysta's cheeks to flush. She shook her head, trying to dismiss the flattery. However, their conversation was interrupted by Isaias' phone ringing."Excuse me, Princess," Isaias said, excusing himself as his phone rang. Amethysta nodded in acknowledgment, and he moved a few steps away to answer the call, having a
Eira's face twisted with disgust as she spoke, her voice filled with unease. "Even the mention of that lake makes me queasy. Didn't our uncle warn us about it?"Amethysta replied calmly, attempting to soothe her friend's exaggerated reaction. "He did mention it yesterday, but there's no reason to get worked up. The lake seems harmless and peaceful. I'm not afraid to go there."Eira scoffed, clearly uninterested in discussing the lake any further. "Alright, forget it. Now, spill the beans about this guy you went on a date with."Amethysta hesitated, finding the encounter rather peculiar. "Well, it was odd. One day, he called me 'Angel,' and the next, 'Princess.' It's almost like he's two different people, even though he looks exactly the same as he did in the bar."Eira chuckled, seeing through her friend's confusion. "Oh, you naive thing. It's pretty clear he's into you. That's why he keeps coming back."Amethysta shook her head, dismissing the idea. "You've got to be kidding. He prob
It was 10:30 in the morning at the Infiniti Mall, and Eira, accompanied by a whiny baby, strolled happily through its corridors."Why are you dragging me along? If you're meeting your fiancé, why am I here? I don't want to be a third wheel in your lovey-dovey moment," Amethysta complained."Shut up and come with me," Eira retorted. "I got word that he'll be at the mall for surveillance. I want to meet him. I can't even see him at his company.""So you want me to come along?" Amethysta clarified."Yup," Eira affirmed.Proudly declaring her intentions, Eira led the way as they searched for Mateo."Hello, Angel," Icarus's voice suddenly rang out, causing Amethysta to freeze in her tracks. Both she and Eira turned to see the handsome man standing before them.Mateo's presence also caught Eira's attention. "You go with your date. I'm going to see my fiancé," Eira said, pushing Amethysta, causing her to stumble into Icarus."Be careful, Angel," Icarus said, steadying her with a gentle touch
In one corner, a silent atmosphere filled the air as a family enjoyed their time together. Meanwhile, on the other side, the curious double bunny was persistently nagging her alpha fiancé.Amethysta stood like a statue, lost in her thoughts, until her friend arrived with her poker-faced fiancé.Elsewhere, a man excused himself from his family and headed to the washroom. Unbeknownst to him, two hooded men followed closely behind. These two men were none other than Icarus and Isaias.Icarus taunted, "Seems like you're having a great time with your family after ruining someone else's. How heartless of you, Mr. Assistant, or should I say, Mr. Ex-Assistant?"The man flinched at Icarus's words, then turned to see two young alphas confronting him."Who... Who are you two?" he stammered, clearly taken aback.Isaias scoffed, saying, "Oh, come on, don't play dumb. You would have heard about us when you got the news about Jonathan."David, still feigning ignorance, responded, "I don't know what
"That girl... She's been spoiled by her family. I need to have a talk with them," Patrick muttered, growing frustrated with Eira's behavior. Little did he know about the alpha who had showered his daughter with dresses."Oh, Dad, don't be so strict with us," she whined, capturing the attention of a particular individual in the room."Alright, alright, go freshen up and come back down," Patrick sighed.She hummed and retreated upstairs. Meanwhile, Patrick approached the unfamiliar person and initiated a conversation. A few minutes later, she returned, dressed in a casual outfit carefully chosen by Isaias."Amethysta, meet Laurent... He is our pack leader's son," Patrick introduced his daughter to the pack leader's son."Hello, Mr. Striebeck. It's a pleasure to meet you," she greeted politely, her warm smile gracing her lips."It's equally nice to meet you, Miss Amethysta. Your father has spoken highly of you, but this is my first time seeing you. As he mentioned, you're quite beautiful
Isaias ended the call and turned to find his twin brother, Icarus, who was restraining David by covering his mouth. Isaias approached them casually, engrossed in his mobile phone."Gosh... You've got quite the set of pipes, huh? You startled our queen with your screaming. Can't you hold your tongue for a while?" Isaias asked irritably, his deadpan glare piercing through David, who had tears streaming down his face and numerous bruises on his body, indicating he had been severely beaten.As Icarus released David, the latter fell to the floor."Tut... Tut... He's made a mess of my hands," Isaias complained, shaking his hand as if it were tainted. He then took a tissue to clean his hands meticulously."We should teach him a lesson for startling our queen, shouldn't we?" Icarus suggested, his gaze meeting Isaias's, who sported a mischievous smirk on his lips.Isaias squatted down to David's level and yanked him up by his hair, causing David to scream in pain."What should we do with you?"
