Rosea fashion show

The limousine parked in front of a tall exquisite building and Ketra made her way inside hurriedly.

"You're finally here. It took you so long to get back and we shall be late now. If you allowed me to come with you, you could get off the plane with your makeup done." Scott nagged but Ketra just rolled her eyes and bypassed him to sit adjacent to the mirror in the dressing room.

Scott was Ketra's agent who got assigned to her six years ago when she joined Samsara modeling agency. Despite working together for six years, they never agreed on a particular thing. Nevertheless, they were still on brother-sister terms. Scott was supportive here and there and he was always willing to path through thick and thin for Ketra Venture.

Other ladies were being attended to by make-up artists and fashion designers. Some were bickering and some were singing at top of their lungs excitedly. This was one thing Ketra loved about humans, carefree, happy, and lively. They were unlike werewolves who were always fighting for their packs and some fighting for titles. This was the world she fitted in as a she-wolf who craved freedom, independence, and happiness.

Her thoughts trailed back to her mate. She wondered if he felt the same way she did now. Did he feel the emptiness after they parted?

He better be. He was her mate and he needed to feel the bond even without accepting it. They didn't acknowledge their bond because of her reasons and now that she thought about it, she was selfish. Selfish towards her mate, selfish towards her wolf, and selfish towards herself.

How could she deny herself a lifetime of pleasure because of the independence she didn't want to end?

"Hi Ketty," Some feminine voice pulled her out of her thoughts and she turned to look at the new face.

"Hello, what's your name?" Ketra asked the new face politely. There were many models from different agencies in the same room and she guessed that she was a model as well.

"My name is Debra from Buka modeling agency. I have always dreamed of walking the same show with you and I can't believe it's gonna happen." Debra spoke with misty eyes while looking at Ketra which made her heart melt.

"It's okay sweetie, I am also happy to meet a promising beauty as well. Let's have coffee together later." Ketra suggested and she smiled when the girl nodded.

There was no big deal about meeting a fellow model who admired her but she just loved free souls that saw a bigger world in every turn they made in life and acknowledged that as a successful step.

....

Rain lay on the bed dejectedly. He was bored with his life and he didn't know the next accurate step he had to take and get this solved.

'alpha my foot.' His wolf Carter sneered in anger.

' What do you think I should do to make her succumb?' Rain asked his wolf hoping that the angry guy would provide a sensible solution.

'Instead of sighing endlessly and looking at the ceiling, why can't you just get up and look for her? As I remember, to know her name.' Carter asserted.

'And you think she's the only ketra Venture in Chicago?' Rain reasoned with Carter's suggestion.

'What's the use of your nose if you can't use it to find the most precious scent.?' Rain sat up at Carter's words. Right!

He can look for her using the identity she gave earlier and see how things go. Her vanilla-mint scent was an advantage.

Rain got up hurriedly and left the hotel room. Based on his plan, he would ask the front desk first and start from there.

To his disgrace, the front desk didn't help much even after his description. He defined a tall and good-looking Ketra Venture with dark sunglasses but they couldn't get more of his description so he decided to leave.

He failed once but he couldn't fail twice. Never as Rain Hilton, never as the alpha of the Blue Moon pack, and never as Ketra Venture's mate.

He reached outside and asked the taxi driver but he showed him a picture that didn't belong to his eyes. Useless!

ust as he was about to cross the street, a billboard caught his eye. Those pink lips and a mole on the point of the nose, the shiny collar bone, and the glowing skin all belonged to his mate. 'The sky is the limit with Ketra Venture' were the words that caught his attention and cleared his doubts.

He exhaled in relief as he looked at the billboard admiringly. This was it. He saw her as a superstar when they met and here she was on a billboard waiting for him to use it and find her.

He turned hurriedly and he was being clumsy in front of people, but who cares? He was yet to fill the emptiness in him and nothing mattered at the moment.

"That's her. Do you recognize her?"

" Excuse me, young man?" The old woman was stupified by the man's behavior. What did he even mean by recognizing her? Crazy dudes.

"Sorry, ma'am." Rain apologized immediately when he realized he was speaking to the wrong person.

He was supposed to be asking the driver but urrgh, the bond was driving him insane.

When he got to the taxi driver, he was sweating from excitement so he asked,

"Do you recognize that woman on the billboard?" He saw the driver nod in assurance and only he knew how his wolf wanted to take over and get to her immediately.

"She's Chicago's top-rated model and she has a business called 'the sky is the limit.'" the driver uttered seriously which made Rain lean in closer to get more information as he wasn't surprised by his mate's identity. Sure, with those long legs, she fitted all beauty standards.

"At the moment, I think she's walking Rosea fashion week. She's just so famous." The driver didn't count the steps taken by Rain to get in the back seat but he knew that the man was fast.

"Let's go." Rain commanded. He was now in prep for redoing things once they meet.
