Her Style

Chapter 5

Lucas's POV

I had finally arrived at the ball after washing off the scent of the blonde haired girl I had just had sex with. I wore a black suit and my wolf was strangely anxious. I plastered my famous smirk on my face and adjusted my sleeves as I stood at the top of the staircase.

I began socialising with the other Alphas but just as I was speaking to Alpha Haynes of the Silver Moon pack, an amazing scent reached my nose. It was heavenly. The scent of strawberries and honey with a tinge of warmth. I searched for the owner of the wonderful scent and my eyes suddenly focused on the back of a retreating figure.

Brown hair and a blue dress that highlighted her curves and exposed her back to my hungry eyes. I quickly excused myself as I followed the scent of the brunette which led me to the garden. I found her standing at my mother's favourite fountain and a smile made its way onto my face.

I stood behind her and watched her figure tense when my fingers lightly brushed her neck. "You know," I spoke softly into her ear, "I love the dress but I don't like to share what's mine with others." My fingers trailed down her back and she shivered. I smirked at her reaction. "You are my mine, mate. I don't like it when you show your body to others." I whispered seductively in her ear and traced a line from her neck and across her shoulder blade.

"Well, you'll have to get use to it. Because just like everyone else, you'll never get it." She remarked as she stepped away from my embrace and twirled around to face me. Beautiful brown eyes stared back at me with defiance and her full lips were set in a smirk. I returned her smirk as I grabbed her waist and pulled her towards me. Her hands rested on my chest while mine stayed on her waist. "On the contrary, my dear angel," I brought my hand up to her cheek and caressed it softly, "I am the only one who will ever touch you, let alone think of you in such a perverted way, because I am your mate. The one who you will spend the rest of your life with." She merely smiled as she wrapped her arms around my neck and tilted her head as if she was inspecting me. I suddenly had the strongest urge to kiss her right there because she looked so darn cute.

She slowly leaned in and I found myself staring at her lips. I leaned in to meet her halfway but her lips merely landed on the corner of my mouth which drove my wolf insane because we craved more. Her lips left a tingling sensation as she leaned close to my ear. "I can still smell her on you. Tsk tsk. Bad mate." She teased me and her voice sent shivers down my spine and I felt her smirk against my neck.

She started trailing kisses along my neck from my ear and I closed my eyes as I relished the pleasure. She placed a kiss on my neck where her mark would soon be and my grip on her waist tightened. She lightly scraped her canines teasingly across the spot and I growled in frustration. She took her head out of the crook of my neck and glanced at me innocently. My eyes were changing colours as they kept flashing between me and my wolf. He was ready to take her and mark her here and now but I don't think she would have liked that. I was still fighting with my wolf when a bell rang out which meant that the dinner was prepared.

"That's my cue to leave. I'll see you inside, mate." She gave me a quick kiss on the lips and hurried back inside while I stood frozen in my spot. I growled in frustration and followed her back to the dining room in which the guests were already seated. I found her sitting beside a blonde haired boy and they seemed to be in deep conversation. I growled which got everyone's attention, including my mate's whose name I am still not aware of.

The noise in the room decreased and I made my way towards the head of the table and took my seat. The servants brought out the first course and I glanced at my mate to see her looking at me with realization before she masked it with a blank look. "Dinner is served. Presenting the first course. Enjoy." My butler, Henry announced.

I made conversation with my fellow Alphas yet my gaze kept returning to my mate who was seated further away from me. She was having her own conversation with the unmated males who were so intent on listening to every word she said. My wolf growled at the scene and wanted me to march over there and show her who she belonged to.

"Alpha Haynes, who is the woman in the blue dress sitting next to Alpha Matthews?" I asked my good friend and he looked at my mate with a smile. I wanted to punch his face in. Control your wolf, Lucas. "That beautiful young lady is Luna Natalia Perez of the Red Dawn Pack. The only female Alpha amongst us currently. I believe she just turned eighteen and thus is eligible for a mate. Whoever her mate is, he's a lucky man. She's one strong woman."

I kept my eyes on her til the end of the dinner. Natalia. Such a beautiful name for a beautiful woman. My mate. What was I going to do with her?  I wanted her and I was ready to do anything for her. But does she want the same thing? I have counted 56 times. She has glanced my way 56 times throughout the whole three course dinner.

I stood up and addressed the audience. "Thank you for being here tonight. You have my deep appreciation and gratitude. You may now retire to your rooms and prepare for tomorrow's meeting. Goodnight Everyone." They began to disperse and I made my towards Natalia. She saw me coming towards her and she quickly said something to her companion before she went out towards the balcony. I followed her and locked the door afterwards.

"I can't do this." She began but I spun around to face her with anger. "Don't say such a thing. I never want you to say that." I grabbed her face in my hands and my heart constricted as a lone tear fell from her eye and onto my hand. She covered my hands with her own and locked her eyes with mine. "After everything that happened, I never wanted a mate. You would only distract me and you would be in danger. I wouldn't be able to take it if anything happened to you. Lucas, I don't want you to get hurt because of me." She whispered, close to tears, my name rolling perfectly off her tongue.

I placed my forehead against hers. "But if you leave then you will do more than just hurt me. You will be taking my heart and soul with you so I might as well be a dead man without you." I told her truthfully. She  peaked at me through her eyelashes as she leaned in again. "This better be a proper kiss." I playfully growled at her and she laughed which was music to my ears.

Her lips landed gently on mine as she kissed me with a silent hunger. I immediately responded to her lips as the sparks set off like fireworks until we were both consumed by passion. I felt her back hit the balcony and hoisted her up to sit on it. She wrapped her sexy legs around my waist as I continued to nip and suck on her lips. I licked her bottom lip for entrance which she gladly gave me but our tongues fought for dominance which I won. We broke off the kiss to breathe but I continued to assault her neck with kisses as she moaned softly while tugging on my hair.

"Lucas. We have to stop." She spoke in a breathless tone and I groaned before ignoring her. "Lucas." The way she said my name turned me on and awoke a certain part of my anatomy. "Stop." She pushed my chest roughly and I finally stopped my assault on her beautiful neck to look at her. Her lips were now swollen and I smirked in satisfaction as I ran my thumb over them. She sweetly smiled at me before she unwrapped her legs from my waist and she got off the balcony. She dusted herself off and my eyes filled with lust as the fabric constantly  showed glimpses of what lay beneath them.

"I have to go to bed." She stated. "Can I join?" I asked with a smirk. She laughed and shook her head. "I'm going to sleep. Alone." She emphasised and I sighed before reluctantly nodding my head. She wrapped her arms around my neck with a smile and kissed me but before it could get too serious, she pulled away. I growled in annoyance but she only laughed. "Goodnight Lucas." She told me before unlocking the door and she was gone from my sight.

"Goodnight, my dear Natalia." I whispered into the night but I felt that she had heard me. She was a beautiful creature, made to be loved by me.
