IsadoraLike everything else in the Alpha’s manor, the dining room was lavish, with the most luxurious items on the elegantly set dining table. She walked in, expecting to see Eutychus and his father but there weren’t there yet. The staff were busy setting up the table and she could see more than three plate settings. She walked over to the seat that would be hers. If she went by the proper seating arrangements, she would be
Alaric Making arrangements for Darrian’s party occupied most if not all of Alaric’s time. He hated it. He needed the day to be as perfect and incident free as possible. Mostly because he couldn’t let his estranged father find fault in anything he did. Even as an outcast, he couldn’t be so nonchalant about things related to the pack, he had an image to protect. He combed over all the itinerary, cross-checked the security for the night. He eve
DarrianDarrian lay in his bed, swiping through the profiles of escorts Alaric had sent him. They were all just what he had in mind, innocent looking omegas who would provide entertainment for the night of the party. His guests needed to know that he could throw a fitting party for their high tastes. He had spent some time with some of the guests and he knew some of their deepest desires, things they couldn’t get in their Packs or even at their homes. He knew they had a wild side that went against their prim and pristine image they had cultivated for themselves and while the party had one sole purpose, to flex his prowess in front of the Alpha and especially smite Eutychus, he was also hell bent on securing his position in society and to do that he needed to mingle with the high and mighty that he had invited.He wanted to be different than his father, who had served the Alpha as a Beta. The man had
Isadora The dress incident had really bothered Isadora. Watching the maid come in and take out the dress she thought belonged to her was quite unnerving but that was the least of her worries. this wasn't how she had pictured the moving in to go Eutychus, her boyfriend, her mate to be… had not come to check on her since lunch. Yes, he was busy with his work and stuff but she was here, in his home for the first time. She tried to let it not get to her, there was no room for pettiness. She plopped back onto her bed, taking deep breaths to calm herself down, even with the suppressants there was still a high chance of things getting out of hand, and this, once again, wasn't the right place or time to be losing her wits. Isadora's phone dinged and she rolled her eyes once she took a look at the notification. [ Don't forget my advice. See you] Her father had of course chosen this time to remind her of things she wanted to forget. Why couldn't her father just be a regular dad, like all the
Isadora “This was a bad mistake…” Isadora thought while she served up the remaining moonshine. Most of the Alpha’s guests had already left. She knew providing a distraction wasn't going to be the easiest thing to do when she agreed to keep the old geezers company, per Alpha’s request. Eventually the last of the guests left the premises and Isadora did not bother to go back to the Alphas' study. She went straight to her room , her bed was calling for her.As soon as she closed the door behind her, she kicked off her shoes and stripped. She turned off the lights and crawled under the covers, blindly reaching out into her side drawer for her suppressants, no matter how beat she was, she had to regulate herself. As soon as her head hit the pillow, she was gone, tired from all the pleasing people. Isadora woke up to her face being caressed. she smiled and leaned into the warm touch. “Wakey wakey…” she heard Eutychus whisper into her ear and a sweet shiver ran through her skin. in that
Eutychus “Maybe inviting her here was a bad idea. ” Eutychus thought to himself as he watched Isadora mingling with some of the guests. In the beginning, Eutychus wanted to take the chance and gloat at everyone that was there and especially that Alaric. He had deliberately invited Isadora at the last minute so he could see the look on Darrian’s face when she walked in. Another part of him also wanted to see what Isadora would do if she saw the mate that had rejected her. “Does she really have to come? ” Regina had asked while they were having lunch in his office. “No, but can you imagine the reaction on Darrian’s smug face? ahh, I can already picture it. Don’t worry too much, I have made the necessary preparations. ” Eutychus replied, and at that time he really thought he had everthing under control. Boy was he wrong. In his mind, Isadora was just a filler in his life. someone his father approved of and occasionally someone to fool around with when he wanted. Choosing her as
Darrian Of all the people he was expecting for this big night, Isadora was the last wolf he thought of, not that he thought of her that often. It was hard to forget that face. The face of a wolf getting rejected, he could never forget it. The fates back then had been testing him and he wasn't about to give in, there was no way he could be mated with lowly omega, let alone a recessive one. Rejecting her was mercy,but now, that mercy was being thrown in his face. Why was she suddenly here? “I can't believe she is here... ” Darrian said to himself as he watched the party from his VIP lounging area. He had seen her when she got in, looking all dazed and lost for a second.She had turned out better than he had expected and no one, not even the high-ranking wolves could suspect that she was imperfect, a recessive omega of all the imperfects. Watching her glued to Eutychus’ side was what really threw him off. Of all the wolves, did they really have to end up together? This was supposed to b
Alaric was pretty much done with the whole gig. His head hurt from all the pheromones in the air, the smoke from cigars and the music. The worst of it all was the physical task of walking around, making sure that the escorts he got from Sammy weren’t being mistreated. Kierran was in charge of the drinks and food and that too was a daunting task on its own. After Alaric had delivered the special bottle of wine to Darrian, he went back to his office for a quick break.“What did he want? ” Kierran’s voice came from the corner of the room. He looked like he was ready to drop down and die.“He was being his usual gloating self. Apparently, he wanted us to have a reunion with that half-brother of mine. Ugh just seeing him gave me head ache. Maybe we should have declined this event?” Alaric said slouching on his chair for quick break.“Yes, We could have and then what? We all know we need the money plus you know darrian, he would try to find the ‘owner of the casino’ that wouldnt have ended
