Even though Adam had threaten them, I caught a few sneaking off to release their 'sexual urges'. I don't think it gets further then a lip lock or an ass grab, but still I want some type of self control and respect.
"GUYS" I yell, seeing that none of them made any efforts to get in line. "Get in line, NOW." Slowly they began to move, looking down scared to even meet my gaze.
Adam just laughed, realizing that I am also reaching the same level of irritation he's on.
Once they were done getting in line I noticed that we had a lot of unmated wolves over the age of twenty and about a handful that were still to young to find one. To be more exact there was thirty- eight under nineteen, and only seventeen older then or at the age of twenty. Our Mated couples don't come since in their opinion there is no point anymore.
"God, this is going to be a long week" Adam whispered to me.
"Oh trust me I know" I whispered back still looking at them. "When alpha or I come around, please state your name and age so we know who's present." I say looking down at the list of names. I walk to the first person in my line ready to start, but interrupted by the squeaking sound of the front door as it opens.
Damn door needs oil again.
First Lily, our gamma's daughter, walks in. Her black passion twisted hairstyle bounced against her radiant black skin, as she skips to my line. Next Nathen walks in. As a delta of the pack Adam placed him outside to make sure every wolf came in safely and orderly. I guess he forgot the orderly part.
"Nathan is walking in, that means this is it" Adam notes, almost sounding relieved that there isn't anymore foot traffic.
Just when I began to think Nathan was about to close the door, he pauses and opens the door a little more, making way for who ever was behind him.
Squinting my eyes I finally see a girl walk in from behind the door. I wasn't close by her but I can see from where I was standing that she was, stunning.
Her burlywood skin, glistened against her brown wavy hair that fell in waves down her back. She wore a casual burnt orange dress and a dark jean jacket to match. Nathan smiled at her as he grabbed her hand while she carried her duffle bag in the other, swiftly guiding her to my line.
After a few minutes of staring at her, she snapped her head up and looked around until her eyes landed on me.
I guessed she sensed someone staring.
She continued to look at me.
I stood up a little straighter, allowing my authoritative aura surface.
'Maybe if I intimidate her a little she will look away', I thought, but she was unfazed. I tilted my head to the side as she looked at me not willing to back down.
"Beta James, you haven't called me." I looked down to see Berkley batter her eyes at me. She lifted her hand and with her index finger she began to graze my bicep up and down flirtatiously. I lifted my head slightly to see if the girl was still staring.
And she was, yet no longer at me, but at Berkley.
When she realized I was looking at her again, she looked away.
I looked back at Berkley and then at the clip board I was holding "Berkley Donovine" I put a check next to her name "present." I backed away from her touch and moved on to the next person. Berkley crossed her arms and pouted, expecting me to come back, but of course I didn't. I've been down that road, and I surely do not want to go back. Ive never dated her, I just felt bad and played along with her flirts and double meaning jokes. I did make it clear that I had no intent in dating her, but that just made her more clingy.
I continued to check off names until I reached the anonymous girl.
I cleared my throat "name?" I said trying hard not to look up from my clipboard.
A few seconds passed with out a response, so I looked up to meet her gaze. Big gray, green orbs met mine. She has long eye lashes and thick steep arched eyebrows. She wasn't short, I bet if I got closer her head would be alliend with my jaw.
"Adria Doveling" she finally answered.
I nodded and looked back down at my clip board, "ok what's your ag-" I stoped and looked back up at her. "Doveling? You're the daughter of Abby and Joshua Doveling?"
She lifted an eyebrow "Yes, that's me."
Wow, Adria.
I remember her now, we went to school together for a year before I graduated high school. Last time I saw her was at her fathers funeral three years ago, Adria was seventeen maybe eighteen. She was different, looked different. Adria was smaller, meek looking. With her go to bright red high lights decorating her hair and black clothing. Even then I always thought she still looked attractive."I'm sorry for your loss" I said as I looked into her eyes.
I watched the inner corners of her eyebrow tugged together, as a wave of sadness washed over her face. She looked at the floor. I can tell she was trying hard to suppress her emotions.
After a few seconds she fixed her composure, took a deep breath and finally looked up at me "Thank you, Beta-" she paused not knowing my name
"James" I answer.
She nods and continues "Um do you have any more questions?" Adria said with a unexpected smile.
"Um, well from what I can tell this is your first camp" I say as I look through some papers "ever."
"Yes, well you see I," she tried to explain, but I cut her off.
"No need to explain, I understand. Can you start by stating your full name" I click the top of my pen down on my clipboard so I can start taking her information.
"Adria Grace Doveling"
I nodded and wrote it down."Ok Age and date of birth." I continued
"I'm twenty-one. And well I turn twenty-two in four days so you can guess when my birthday is."
I nodded again and wrote it down.
Once I was done writing down her information I looked at her, said "thank you", and walked away.
I felt a strange feeling in the pit of my stomach, realizing that I couldn't smell her scent. Everyone has one, some might smell pleasant to the nose like; fresh flowers or a fruit something mellow. While others might have a more pungent smell like; ginger or cinnamon, but with Adria I didn't get a whiff of anything except her floral perfume.
Maybe I wasn't paying attention.
I finally reached Adam who had his hands crossed in-front of his chest "So who's the girl you were talking to" he asked me with a smirk.
"Take that look off your face, that's Beta Abby's daughter." I mumbled.
Adams jaw dropped as he looked past me to see Adria. "Well damn. Being away from us sure did her well."
I raised my eyebrows
"What? You cant deny the girl looks good." Adam remarked as he lifted his hand towards her.
I turned around to look at Adria and crossed my hands in-front of my chest mimicking Adam.
She was laughing at something lily or Nathen just said. Showing off her smile, straight teeth and the two dimples she has on her cheeks. I wonder what they said that was making her laugh so much.
I shrugged "she's alright I guess."
Adam just rolled his eyes and patted me on my back "clearly we have different taste in woman" He said while he walked towards the front doors.
"Clearly" I said still staring at Adria.
AdriaHis hands were crossed in front of his chest as he stared back at me, but I didn't know why.His stare was intense, making me feel self conscious under his gaze.Maybe I have something on my face?I remember him, we went to the same high school for a year before he graduated. We never talked and I doubt he ever noticed me, but I surly did notice him. Mr big shot, son of the great businessman, who everyone is school wanted, but sadly no one could have.He wore casual clothing; black jeans, white and red stripped shirt, with a pair of white dress sneakers to match. His hair was cut short on the sides, as his soft wavy hair laid on top of his head. He had a well trimmed beard that wrapped around both sides of his face, accentuating his well defined jaw line and narrow nose.James looked confused, like if he also didn't know why he was looking at me. Playing it off as nothing, I continued to talk and joke with Nathan and Lily. The only two friends that actually stood by me when my d
JamesI watched as her breathing deepened and slowed, as a result I knew she was finally asleep. Strands of her brown wavy hair fell across her face, and her pink lips were slightly parted allowing soft snores to escape."She's pretty little thing isn't she?" Adam comments with a smirk. He was laying his head over the set in front of mine looking down at me. How long has he there? I don't know. And why didn't I notice his annoyingly loud breathing. I don't know that either. What I do know is I was caught red handed."Great" I whisper under my breath, mentally smacking myself. I fixed my composure and looked out the window, sitting on the opposite side of Adria.Adam chuckled "there is no point in hiding the fact that you were staring at her like a creep, I caught you already.""I was just making sure she was ok" I said still not turning to look at him.Adam rolled his eyes "I think that's the dumbest excuse I have ever heard, I mean ever, from a guy who was caught checking out a girl"
AdriaA gush of warm air sweep across on my face, causing me to wake up. I shiver, goosebumps rushed throughout my body when I realized I had fallen asleep without a sweater, and the bus had been set to an unbelievably cold temperature.A strong cologne suffocated my nose. I was laying on something hard, when I breathe I felt confined. My head throbs against the hard surface I was laying on.Slowly, I look up and see Nathan peacefully sleeping. A little drool was sliding down one corner of his mouth.My eyes widenedHow did I get here?I tried to wiggle out of his grasp, but he had a tight hold on me. I didn't want to wake him up because I know how awkward it would be.Well awkward for me anyway.I continued to wiggle, but his hands wouldn't budge."This is too painful to watch" a husky voice said behind me.I suddenly felt Nathans grip loosen around me followed by his hands falling to his side.I pushed myself up off his chest, as the person behind me brought both hands to my hips, g
James The sun hits my eyes causing me to flinch in my sleep. I push my face up, coming in contact with a smooth fresh texture, while I try to shield my face from the rays of the sun. The sweet smell of a floral perfume hits my nose as something was pulsing against it. Pulsing? I open my eyes and look up, gasping in surprise. My God, I was laying on Adria. To be more persist I was laying on her chest with the point of my nose touching her neck. For a quick moment I was absolutely starstruck. Her hair is laying over her shoulders and down her back. Her eyes are closed, allowing her long eyelashes to lay over a few freckles that passed under her eyes and the bridge of her nose. The way my face was angled I can see a light brown birth mark on her top lip, shaped like a tiny heart or a misshaped circle. It's too small and light to make out the shape. My neck was hurting, due to the very bad position I've been sleeping in, but I don't care. Any small movement can wake her, thats a ri
James After Adria and Daisy had their little 'met and greet'. Nathan agreed to show our new members around. When I said I would come along, Daisy insisted on showing us the camp site herself since in her opinion 'she is the more qualified to do so'. "So to your right you will see the training ground." Daisy pointed to her right "there you will find all the weapons and training equipment you will need throughout the duration of your camp stay." We watched for a few minutes as two teenagers from different packs practiced their fighting techniques against each other. I looked down at Adria to see her eyes darting from one opponent to the other, analyzing their swift movements. Finally looking up I see them swing their fist at each other, both almost landing every punch they threw. Blood trickled down one of the woman's eyebrows as the other wiped the blood off her mouth with her arm. Just when I thought they had given up, they both jump, shifting mid air into their wolf. Before they e
My phone vibrates beside me. Vibrating a couple of times, until it eventually stops.I mentally roll my eyes and turn to my side, getting comfortable again. Minutes had passed and my phone hadn't rung. I sigh constantly knowing I have more time to sleep. Just as I was about to drift off into a deep slumber, for the second time, I heard it again.The vibration of my phone behind me. I reach out my hand to grab it, answering it in the process."What?" I said annoyed. Believe me that was an understatement. Who the hell calls at,7 amMy eyes widen as I look at the clock that sat on my nightstand."What do you mean''What"? Have you seen what time it is? Get your ass down to the pack house NOW." Adam says through the phone. His voice sounding more desperate for help than what I think he intended it to sound. I heard people in the background, kids. I couldn't quite make out what they were saying, there were too many of them to pick up on one specific voice."Get off of her!" Adam yelled. "J
I stare at Abby, waiting for her to start the conversation, but she doesn't.She sits straight with her legs crossed, as she fumbles with her fingers. Quietly staring down at her hands."So, Abby" I start, sensing she might be a little nervous "what can I do for you?"She clears her throat "So you see my daughter, Adria, will be attending camp this year" she says still looking down at her hands. "I guess I'm just a little nervous. She missed it almost every year, you guys don't do anything, extreme right?"She finally looked up at me, her eyes begging for me to say no.I smiled, because I know a lot of parents just like her, worry when we leave with their kids for our annual, "camp.""Rest assure, we only allow them to do what ever is in there limits" I lie. "If I see that Adria can't I will pull her out myself."She smiles back "thank you."I smile in return.It hurts me to lie to her, but if she knew what we did in those camp getaways, she would have a heart attack.Every year we lea
