Never letting go again

The drive went fast per the mysterious man's words. He never met a crazy man in life and he wished never to encounter the same character again.

.

Rain was impatient and nervous as they approached the building where the Rosea fashion show was being held. Being his second chance, he needed to check himself, his words, and his behavior, or else he would be done for 

Learning that his mate was not just anybody but the famous model and businesswoman, he prepped for the words and ways to woo her. After all, her life has been spent around humans and maybe she wasn't familiar with the Werewolf way of spotting your mate, kissing their breath away, and sharing carnal pleasures or even relying on the bond to take things further.

When the driver announced that they were there, Rain snapped out of his daze and looked at the surroundings of the tall building which was occupied by countless reporters. There were lots of fancy cars on the side but he spotted one car that made his heart thump against his chest.

Right, he spotted the limousine that picked Ketra up from the airport, and the initials VK were a shred of evidence that it belonged to her. Rain took in full breaths preparing himself to enter the hall and he also hoped that his wolf won't push him to jump on her and claim her in the crowd. If that happens, she could never consider him, or worse reject him right away.

Rain's legs had never trembled till now that he was making his way inside the hall. Initially, the guards had restricted him since he didn't have an invitation to the show but he bribed them with a handsome amount which made them leave with permanent smiles.

After comforting himself at the seat where he could watch flawlessly, he used his nose, as his wolf reminded but he only inhaled mixed human perfumes that made him nauseous. But nauseous or not, he still had to search for that scent that completed his life. To his disappointment, he kept on smelling perfumes while peeking at every corner for a chance to spot her. He wasn't aquatinted with fashion and he didn't understand how things worked.

He just watched as slender ladies swayed majestically through the columns and other people were taking pictures. He wondered if Ketra's turn was already done and hoped she was still backstage. A moment of silence came in as reporters turned their cameras towards the backstage exit as a tall slender figure appeared in black with lights turned down to dim.

Rain's nostrils flared as he caught a merry sweet scent of Vanilla-mint and he could feel his wolf wagging its tail happily. What a blessing!

He could feel the attraction and an invisible pull that urged him to follow the addictive scent and devour its owner till they both plead for a short breath. He sat, straightening his back to get a full view of the woman who was yet to accept him in her life.

She was crossing her legs carefully while she walked under the dimmed light that followed her on the stage. With his werewolf sharp sight, he could see her outfit thoroughly even when humans could only see the outline of the dress and guess the color. Her curves were perfectly sketched and her every step moved her glorious hips to the side at a reasonable range.

Rain's insides churned with a low almost inaudible growl that ripped from his chest. He had turned to look around and he saw everyone looking at his mate with interest. This was bad! At all chances, he didn't wish to destroy his mate's career and ruin her reputation by possessively carrying her away from that stage to a place where only him could look at her.

Ketra made her majestic catwalk moves as she has always done. Her sight and focus were on space while she kept her eyes unblinking. She was the model who wore the best outfit that the designer had to offer for the day and she did her best to ignore the force that urged her to turn and find out where it was coming from.

It was the same force she felt during the flight this morning and she didn't know if there was a one percent possibility of her mate being around Rosea.

Gulping her nervousness and curiosity, Ketra made it to the stage where everyone could watch her clearly at their seats. As a model, she didn't need to smile as it would distract her, instead, she waited for full lights and started posing for pictures when they came on.

She wore an ankle length silk gown they hugged her curves flawlessly. The back part was left uncovered which showed her flawless glowing skin with a few diamond stones on the collar area. Just perfect if only men weren't looking at her greedily which made Rain ball his hands into fists to suppress different emotions overpowering his being with jealous being the top of them.

Ketra looked in several directions to give reporters different angles for taking her pictures. As he turned to her left, she didn't want to believe that her eyes finally found the force that called for her to jump off stage and get trapped there forever. 

When her hazel eyes met his sharp dark ones, she felt her legs weakening. Should she call this a coincidence or her mate was bound on making her accept him that he followed her upto here? No, she didn't see any mysterious car throughout the way when she left the airport. She had wished to have a glimpse of his features again but that didn't happen because he didn't follow behind her.

Now, what answers how he got to this place? Was he one of the powerful CEO werewolves that resided in Chicago with humans? But she had met almost all of the rich werewolves and he wasn't among the one's  she knew.
