Visiting My Pack

After Oliver and his father had left, I changed. The man had totally ripped my dress and that soul-shattering kiss he gave me. No one had ever kissed me like that. It was like he wished to devour me. My skin still tingled from the after effects. Arrogant and broody down to the roots but man knew how to kiss. And I couldn't deny this attraction I felt for him. Every time he was in the vicinity I wanted to throw caution to the wind and jump his bones. It wasn't a sin to mix pleasure and work. The way he had reacted to me, I knew I could get in his pants. A girl had needs. I grabbed some dinner and tied up my apartment. Once I had settled, I fished out Noah's card and dialled his number. He picked up instantly, well that was easy. “Hello! Alpha Carol speaking.” His annoying voice came through. “Hi! It's me, An from the party. I would like to meet you.” “Hey! An, I am glad you called. Come tomorrow morning, I will wait for you.” So desperate. Was he already tired of Ruby? “Meet you soon,” I seductively said while cringing inside. I slept peacefully that night, the dreams of being kissed by the Alpha King swirled through my mind. Next morning I grabbed coffee and opened my closet to choose suitable clothes. I extracted a few dresses and settled on a sapphire short dress with a maximum cleavage and a pair of matching sandals. My body had become more curvier with time and the dress fitted perfectly. Meanwhile, I made mental notes about the discussion I will have with Noah. And then another idea hit me. To turn Noah and Ruby against each other. To sow discord first. A sinister spread on my lips at this brilliant idea. Applying nude-shaded makeup, lenses and black wig, I was ready. I called an Uber and made a mental note to buy myself a car. A red Audi could work. My Uber arrived and soon I reached outside the pack territory. Getting down, I paid my ride and took a deep glance at the silver gates of my pack. Our crest of a howling wolf against the full moon stood proud under the bright sun. My heart ached at the memories of this place. Nostalgia washed all over me as tears burnt the back of my eyes but I held them at bay. Grabbing a mask from my bag, I covered my face so no one would recognise me. Approaching the guards, I introduced myself. Noah had already informed them beforehand. They led me inside and I breathed in as my eyes roamed around. So much had changed, new buildings had been erected and many old ones had been demolished. Even the community center and the pack house had been changed. Noah and Ruby had painted the whole pack in their own colours. Memories of my childhood so vividly resurfaced. It saddened my heart but I kept my emotions in check. Knowing too well where the Alpha's office was I arrived outside and removed the mask before knocking on the door. “Come in!” He ordered and I entered quietly. He still wore the same woodsy cologne. In the past, it used to invigorate me; now it just pissed me off. “You are early. I am just surprised you sought me out,” he said with a smile and I wandered near him. “Just wished to see the magnificent Alpha of this renowned pack at work. Plus you are the one who left his information with me.” I flattered him as my fingers graced his desk. The desk my father used to sit on. My eyes could hardly hold back the rage as they lifted to take him in up close. Nothing but disgust coiled inside me for this man and yet my lips remained upturned in a smile. “Yes, you reminded me of someone I used to know,” he spoke with a flirtatious smile. “Who?” I asked rather curiously. “My ex-mate. You look like her but she had different eyes and hair colours. She was a vicious woman though,” he almost sighed and I couldn't help but cringe at the shameless man. “Are you still in love with your ex? What about your Luna?” I deliberately asked, taking another tentative step closer to him. His eyes freely roamed my body now, lingering at my cleavage. “You are a very attractive woman, An. With the body of a goddess. Even more beautiful than my ex.” He spoke as if it was supposed to affect me in some way, completely ignoring the question about Ruby. My seductive smile widened at his words but disgust clawed my insides. I couldn't believe this was the same man I had once loved with all of my heart. Had kissed endlessly. “But you have your Luna or is she unable to satisfy you in bed?” I promptly asked, keeping an innocent face, my lips pouting. My fingers drummed the table and I could see how Noah was unable to keep his eyes off me. He flicked his tongue over his lower lip. I wished to scoff knowing too well to fall for his tricks. Outside I heard the clicking of heels and knew Ruby must have come to know of my arrival. I deliberately tripped and fell forward, as planned Noah instantly caught me in his big arms and I let out a smooching sound, although our lips didn't touch. A fuming Ruby made her entrance. Seeing me in Noah's arms and so close, she lunged straight at me. “You bitch! Trying to steal my man.” Her hand whipped towards me, trying to slap me. Before I could defend myself, Noah grabbed her hand. “No, Ruby,” he warned sternly and I just made an extremely innocent face, trying to act all delicate and soft. I had learnt a few tricks from Ella. “Why the hell are you meeting her alone? Keeping secrets from me now? You want this bitch now?” Ruby began to unleash her fury at Noah while I watched them fight in satisfaction. As her fuming eyes collided with mine, I gave her a smirk knowing it would burn her just like she had done to me.
