Nivea's POV:
We get to the bar and I get out of the car. immediately following me was my friend who was, lets admit it, acting like this was the day my life changes."Come on Ni!!" She squeals grabbing my arm dragging me towards the building. As we are now running inside she giggles with excitement and leads us towards the bar."I want a rum and coke please. " she said to the bartender then nudges me. "Tell him what you want. ""Oh. I want a adios motherfucker please." He makes our drinks and hands them to us. I nod to him as a sign of thanks however before I can pull my cash out, Abigail puts a 20 dollar bill on the counter and says"Tonight is on me. " and grinned."If you say so. " I grin back.After I got a couple sips down I caught wind of an intoxicating scent. I could smell cedarwood and pine. I look around but can't tell for sure where it's coming from."Do you smell that?" I lean in to Abigail and ask."if you mean sweat and alcohol the answer is yes. " she said and giggled."No the cedarwood and pine smell.""No I don't. Follow the scent and then tell me what it was." at that time some guy walked up to Abigail and asked her to dance, of course she said yes.I walk away shaking my head, trying to find where that scent is coming from.I couldn't tell how long I was walking around but I lost track of it so I stepped outside. What I found out there was shocking on my part.As I walked outside I saw a couple talking and sipping thier drinks, then I saw the most gorgeous man I've ever seen. He was sitting in a chair looking out at the street. He seemed to stiffen when I walked outside. I wonder if I scared him?'get closer. ' cassi said.Deciding against scathing him more than I have I went to walk back inside and Ran into someone and started to fall. waiting for the impact that never came.Keenan's POV: I walked outside to clear my head and started looking at the street. I don't know how long I was out there but I quickly stiffened when I smelled that scent again. I looked back, following the smell when I noticed a girl running into a big guy. I quickly run over there wrap my arm around her waist and pull her back. Sparks ignited everywhere her skin touched mine. My wolf started bowling and jumping with exciting chanting one word. "MATE MATE MATE!!" Dazed by this I released the girl and stepped back. The guy she ran into looked down at her and said "excuse me miss I didn't see you there. are you ok?" I don't know why I got angry and possessive over this stranger but she stood up and shyly said yes she was. Then she looked at me with the most beautiful blue eyes I've ever seen. like the beach. I honestly melted. She preceded to tell me thanks for catching her and I noticed where that scent was coming from. her! I hold out my hand to introduce myself. "I'm Kernan...
Nivea's POV:Me and Keenan were dancing, enjoying the sparks that stayed on our arms when Abigail walked up and stoped us. "Hey Ni! I've been looking for you everywhere. where have you been? who's your new friend?" she asked the questions quick like she might die if she didn't. "Well I've been outside where I ran into.... " I started to say but was cut off by Keenan."My name is Keenan and we found out that we are mates. That is, if you'll have me?" He asked and looked at me with those dazzling eyes. I was so shocked by his sudden question that I was lost for words for a second. "uumm... yes?" I say and blush. of course the sweet moment is quickly ruined when she pipes up again. "O.M. Gosh girl I'm so happy for you!! ok ok ill leave you two alone. let me know when you are ready to go home. " she gushed. "Actually if you're ok with it I'll take her home. " Keenan interjected. She smiled wide and nodded then gave me a hug and ran off again. I looked back to Keenan and smiled apolo
Keenan's POV: We got onto her pack lands and we walked up to her cabin. So many questions filled my head. "So. You live here alone?" I asked. "Yep. I asked Alpha Nathan if I could live in a place on my own being as I hadn't found my mate yet that way the younger wolves could live in the pack house with their mates. " she replied simply. I looked around the place and she has pretty good taste with decorations. She obviously loves the beach being as that is what makes up most of the decor. She also loves to paint, that she told me herself, but some of her paintings were hung on the walls. "You don't mind if I change do you? I'm getting uncomfortable in this garb." she asked and I chuckled. "No. You go ahead and change. " I said and she smiled and walked into her room and closed the door. 'Where is mate?' Conri asked.'Calm down she went to change dumbass. ' I replied. 'When will she get back?' He stated pacing. 'Soon Conri. Calm down. ' with that comment he growled and waited.
Nivea's POV:Waking up next to someone in the morning after drinking alot can be scary... but not this time. I felt safe waking up and seeing that man laying next to me. However when I woke up I wasn't on the couch. we were in my bed. He started to wake up and as he did he looked at me and smiled. He so handsome. "Good morning love" He said quietly and sweetly. "Good morning. How did we end up on the bed?" I asked out of pure curiosity. "Well at about 5 am I couldn't sleep so I picked you up and carried you to the bed. I hope you don't mind. " He said. "of course I don't mind. " I said. He smiled and ran his fingers through my hair. I can't believe this guy is mine. We got up and I got into the shower and cleaned up real quick. I put on a pair of blue jeans and a blue t shirt. I put my hair into a pony tail. I walked out to the wonderful smell of breakfast. "That smells good. " I said. He turned and looked at me with a smile and a plate. 'Mate knows how to cook?' Cassi asked.
Keenan's POV:About mid way through our breakfast Adam mind links me."Hey where are you bro?" He asked. "I'm at my mate's house. I stayed here last night. " I replied. "OMG! Ok ill leave you alone then. tell me everything when you get back. when are you coming back? when can I meet her? your Mate is a girl right? " He said back."Yes I'll tell you about it. I'll be back soon. you can meet her when I get back. and yes my mate is a girl. " I replied to his million questions then cut the link. "Is everything ok?" Nivea asked. "Yes love. everything is fine. it was just Adam. " "Ah. ok." We stayed in silence just enjoying each other's company as we finished our breakfast. Afterwards I stood up and smiled at her. "Would you like to come meet Adam and my parents? If we are lucky we can see my siblings. " I winked at her with that last bit and held out my hand. She took my hand and off we went in my car to go meet everyone. I opened the mind link and told everyone, family and Adam tha
Nivea's POV: Honestly, when Keenan asked me if I wanted to meet his family I was scared that they would reject me because I want part of thier pack, I mean couples from different packs want unheard of but it doesn't always happen. When we walked into the office an older looking couple, maybe late 40s, a younger girl, late teens, and two other guys was in there waiting on us. one of the guys I recognized as the, now hung over, Adam from last night. "Hello son. who is this?" the older gentleman asked. Keenan introduced me to everyone as his mate and everyone looked excited for us. "Oh hun I'm so happy for you!" The older lady said."Oh Godess that's amazing! I'm so happy for you bro!" Adam shouted. At that moment I heard a deafening squeal from the younger girl. "Yay I finally have a sister!" a statement which earned a "Hey!" from the other young guy standing in there. She gave me a bear hug and giggled. Keenan went around the room introducing everyone. "That is Alpha Dean, my fat
Keenan's POV: We pulled into her driveway at about midnight and went inside her house. Luckily I brought clothes with me so I can shower. By the time I was done with my shower, yes I like to take a while, she changed and picked a movie and got some snacks for us. "Well this is a surprise. " I said with a smile as I walked out."No its not. You could've seen this coming." she replied with a giggle. I chuckled and cuddled up to her in the couch. 'Mate smells good. Get closer.' Conri said.'I can't. we are already close.' I said.'When can we mark mate?' He asks impatiently. 'Whenever she is ready. Let's don't rush her.' I replied. He plopped down like a toddler having a tantrum and huffed. I smiled and shrugged at him and looked at the movie she picked for us, the texas chainsaw massacre. of course. Seeing the look on my face she frowned and asked "Is this movie too scarry?"I smiled and replied "No love its perfect. However if you need to hide your eyes I'm here." I chuckled at t
Nivea's POV:I was kinda concerned when Keenan asked me about my ex, but being as Richard hasn't been in the picture for a long time I didn't mind telling him. I fell asleep on the bed with Keenan at about 2 or 3 am. I had already mindlinked the Alpha and let him know I had found my mate and was taking the week off. With how much I work I knew he wouldn't mind. *****I open my eyes and I'm laying on the bed by myself. I look around the room for Keenan but I don't see him. I try to sniff to catch his scent but it's not there at all. "Keenan? Hun are you awake?" I call out and no answer. I hear a knock at the door so I get out of the bed and go to the door thinking that he went to get breakfast again and locked the door. Walking to the door I feel a gut wrenching feeling in my stomach and had second thoughts of opening the door. Reluctantly I opened it, gasped in horror and took a step back. "Did you really think I wouldn't find your house my love?" Richard said with that evil sly g
NIVEA'S POV: I woke up in a dark dungeon. It's cold in here, and damp. 'Goodness I hope Keenan finds me.' I said to Cassi. 'Cassi?' No answer.'Cassi? Please answer me.' I could feel her but she wasn't answering. Maybe she is asleep still from that wolfsbane. Oh if only me and Keenan would have done the marking ceremony, then he would be able to feel what I feel and maybe he would be able to find me. A big figure walked in. I could tell he was an alpha by his aura. "Hello Nivea. I've been expecting you. You must excuse the shackles and dungeon, I wanted to make sure I could see you as soon as you woke. " His voice was deep and gravely. " Who are you?" I asked, guarded. "My apologies miss. My name is Ethan Caraway. I am alpha of this pack. " "OK alpha I'll play your game. What do you want with me?" "Game madam? what game?" he asked stupidly. "I knew you were and alpha the second you walked into the door, I also knew you were born an alpha by how tall you are, I also knew you w
Keenan's POV:We were almost done organizing everything when my mom mindlinked us. 'Something is off. Nivea left with Kevin to visit his pack. Something about a peace treaty.' Mom said in our heads. We looked at each other with wide eyes. I decided to mindlink Adam to see what was going on.'Hey Adam, your mate just left with mine. Something about visiting his pack for a peace treaty.' 'Impossible. I left him at home. I asked if he wanted to come with but he Said no. I would've smelled him here. Let me see if he really was here. ' 'Wait. YOU WEREN'T WITH THEM?!' I screamed in his head. Me and Conri were furious. 'I had to pee. I'm sorry. I just spoke with Luna Angela and she said it was him. I don't understand, I would have smelled him. He's my mate. I wasn't that far away from them. I swear Keenan!' He pleaded. I could feel the sincerety in his mindlink. I knew he was telling the truth. "Lets go get the girls." My dad said. I nodded as we walked out of the office. 'Attention So
Nivea's POV:We were walking around the store grabbing dresses with the mermaid style I had in mind when Adam came up and said that he had to go to the bathroom. "I'm so sorry to leave you girls so soon but I need to go to the bathroom. " "Of course Adam. You go ahead we are not leaving here without you." I said. He smiled and ran off. I went into the changing room and tried on a beautiful dress. It was a cream color that hung off of my shoulders and hugged my curves all the way to my thigh then flared. It's perfect! I thought as I walked out to show Luna Angela. "Oh I think that is the perfect one Nivea!" She said. "You look gorgeous Luna. " I heard a male voice say. I turned my head and saw Kevin. "Oh. Thank you Kevin. What are you doing here?" I asked. I'm pretty weirded out that he's here but I brush it off. "My Alpha would like to talk to you about a peace treaty if you'd agree I can escort you. " He said. "Okay. Luna Angela do you mind waiting for me at the restaurant we
Unknown POV:I picked up my phone and called the king."Your Majesty. The girl and Luna Angela are going to town to shop." "Very good job Keith. Follow them and bring the girl to me." He said into the phone. "What about Luna Angela sire?" "What of her? She is of no use for me. I do not care what you do with her. " He said. I smiled at the words 'whatever I want to do with her.'I hung up the phone and slid it into my pocket. I went to the door and found Adam standing there bouncing on his heels. "Oh. hey. what are you doing here? and why are you so happy?" I asked with a grin. My mate. So cute. "Babe! I get to follow the Lunas to Nora's!" He said with as much excitement a person can muster. "Oh okay. Shall I wait here for you?" I asked. We marked each other last night. We didn't mate, due to us not thinking it was necessary being as we are both male. But I'm happy he bares my mark, showing that he is mine. I just hate that I can't tell him everything. "Do you mind waiting?" "O
Keenan's POV:I hate that I couldn't be there this morning when ni woke up but dad needed my help with some pack business with the hotels and other financial duties. We were discussing renovations needed to one of the hotels when mom walked in. "Nivea and I will be going to finish getting everything we need for the marking ceremony. It shouldn't take too long. I will inform you when we are on our way home. " She stated as she walked over to dad. He stood up and walked to her wrapping her up in a big, protective hug. "Come home soon and tell me if anything goes astray or looks suspicious. I love you. " He said to her. In normal families, this would Gross the son out like it grosses my sister and brother out, but it makes me happy knowing I have found a love like theirs. She gave him a kiss and walked over to me then gave me a kiss on the cheek. "I love you Keenan. " "I love you too mom" I said as I gave her a hug. She smiled and walked out. When she did I mindlinked Adam. 'Hey can
Nivea's POV:I wake up to an empty bed with a rose and a note in keenan's spot. I pick up the rose and smell it with a smile. Grabbing the note it reads "My love, I'm sorry I couldn't see you when you woke up but I had to help dad with pack business, I'll see you tonight. I love you, Keenan." I get up and pick out a AC/DC t shirt and a pair of light blue, ripped, skinny jeans, a black lace thong and a black lace bra to match them head to the bathroom. I quickly shower, get dressed, do my hair. Then I make my way down stairs to the kitchen where I see the cook. She's a nice elder lady named Rosie. "Good morning Luna. " she chirps. "Would you like some breakfast?" "Yes ma'am I would. What are you making?""Eggs, toast, and sausage. " I nod grabbing a banana and take a seat. Within 10 minutes my food is ready. I eat it happily and thank Rosie for the meal. I meet up with the Luna and we go shopping for the things we need for the marking ceremony. Getting into the black SUV I ask her.
Unknown POV: My phone rang and I picked it up immediately "Yes sir?" "Do you have eyes on the girl?" "Yes sir. They are doing the ceremony In two days time." I said. I had overheard the conversation through the door. Soon everything will fall into place and her and her wolf will be ours to have. "Good job. Keep me updated on her at all times. " the voice on the other end of the line said. I smiled in pride. "Yes your Majesty. " with that I hung up the phone and slid it back into my jean pocket. I kept watch over her while I had blended in with this pack. I had been given this mission as soon as that boy had made it official at the bar. *********************Keenan's POV: Dinner went uneventful and soon me and Ni were in the bedroom. I let her shower first while I gathered all of my things I would need. When she came out she looked like a vision in her light pink silky night gown that came just above her knees. "Wow." I stated. Conri had the same reaction in my head. This woma
Nivea's POV:I finished talking about where we would do the ceremony and made a date and time for it. I'm excited. "Hey Ni! Can you come down for a sec?" I heard Keenan call from downstairs. "Uh oh, I may want to see what's going on." I giggled. Alpha and Luna nodded. I bowed out of respect and left the room. Walking down the stairs I could hear three men talking. "Ah, here she is." Keenan said with pride. "Kevin this is my mate Nivea. Nivea this is Adam's mate Kevin. " He introduced. "How ye doin' lass... er.. Luna?" Kevin asked. Wow he had a thick Irish accent. He bowed out of respect. "I'm good. How are you doing Adam?" I asked."I'm great Luna thank you for asking. " I saw keenan's face and I sat down on his lap. "Luna and Alpha are upstairs in Alpha's office if you'd like to introduce your mate." I said. They bowed and Adam took off. I mouthed 'I'm sorry' to Kevin who just smiled and took off after him. After they left the room I looked at the TV screen and watched Keenan p
keenan's POV:I was relieved, to say the least, that Nivea was game for doing the ceremony earlier. As soon as we got done talking about the ceremony my mom and Nivea were talking about all of the preparations. I decided that was my cue to walk out and go play some Playstation while I wait. I turned on Call Of Duty Modern Warfare and started where I left off a long time ago. I was playing for about 20 minutes or so when Adam walked in. "Hey Amigo!" He chirped."Hey Adam. What's up?" "Oh nothing...." He trailed off. I looked up at him and he was grinning like someone just gave him is favorite car. "Adam, why you so happy?" I asked my interest is piqued at this point. "Well, I found my mate!" He gushed. 'oh boy' conri said. I smiled. "Where is he?" I asked.'Why do you have to be so curious? Now he will be hugging on another man in front of us. Disgusting!' Conri said.'Look, that is his mate. The Moon Goddess paired them because that is his preference. Don't shame him for that!'
