Chapter Four

 

Sophie

 

To say the drive to the ball wasn't far will be a massive understatement. It was about a two-hour drive that felt like eternity. 

 

Honestly, we could have been faster in our wolf form, but Aurora insisted that it would be inconveniencing to shift back, and I might even ruin her beautiful makeup on my face.

 

As we approached the double iron gate that led to the ball ground, The guards by the gate hurriedly opened the gate after confirming our identities. 

 

"Lucas told me, this is one of Alpha Darren's many houses." Aurora murmured as she turned the steering and curved the tire towards the packing lot. It was just twenty minutes into the ball, and the packing lot was already filled up.

 

"Gosh. There isn't any space left. I will be reversing the car to pack outside while you go in and enjoy yourself. I will mindlink you once I'm back." She rasped, flashing me a reassuring smile, which I quickly returned, before stepping out of the passenger seat and watching the car speed off.

 

I stared at the large building before me. The building was exceptionally beautiful and perfectly maintained. The definition of a picturesque, opulent mansion. There wasn't a leaf out of place on the shrubbery or a speck of dirt on the marble walkways.

 

It couldn't be more flawless, but there is something so lonesome about it that's almost palpable. It doesn't feel like there has been any happiness here for a long time. It's like an invisible fog hanging in the air, weighing everything down, blocking out the sun.

 

The ball was in full swing when I strode in. Pointing sharp glances around the colorful room, I decided to settle for an empty sofa along the bar.

 

A man cloaked in black and dragging a young lady through the crowd was the first thing I caught sight of.

 

'Why would anyone wear black to a mating ball?' My wolf, Myra, murmured as the inquisitive part of me sprung out, and I instantly rose to my feet, following behind them from a safe distance.

 

"You have to marry him, Evelyn." The husked male voice growled once they were finally outside. My blood ran cold. I'd heard that voice before.

 

"But I don't love him, father." The female cried out, choking on her saliva.

 

"It doesn't matter, darling; the wedding has already been fixed. It's taking place this same time next week at our residence. All you need to do is marry him, and then I will equip you with poisons to kill him. Once he's dead, I will rule over his pack and hand over the Obsidian pack to you and your lover." I shook my head as I stepped backwards, tears feeling my eyes.

 

This was Alpha Darren, the man who killed my parents, and now he wanted to kill another Alpha. What for power?

 

No, I couldn't let this happen. I'd been sending trained watchers to attack Darren ever since he killed my parents, but all their attempts always ended up futile.

 

Darren was a strong force, and if he planned on killing another Alpha to gain power and take over his pack, it only meant the other Alpha was much stronger. And to defeat a strong force like Darren, I needed the help of a stronger Alpha.

 

My plan was simple. The wedding was this same time next week at Darren's residence, and the only way I could meet this stronger Alpha and ask for his help was by attending the wedding and making a quick swap with his bride.

 

I just hope it won't be too late.

I will be getting married soon'. 'I knew it. So you liked her and deep down wanted to see her'. Kyla howled as I instantly blocked our mindlink. I didn't like her. I detested all females. And hated the word love. 'Chill is a process. From like comes love'. Kyla chuckled as an irritated scowl slipped off my lips. I thought I blocked the mindlink? Tired of dealing with Kyla, I rose from my seat and strode directly to the garden, at the far end of the building. I just needed to clear my mind.

Without sparing a second, I pushed through the crowd; the background music faded and was forgotten in the rush. Slipping through the door I saw him enter into, my heart raced, but I couldn't go back now. I needed to do this. Captivate this male and seduce him, or I would remain at a corner of the wall forever and never have my happily ever after. As werewolves, it has always been a tradition to be mated swiftly after you turned eighteen, or at least before you turned twenty-five. I'm currently twenty-nine; I will be turning thirty in a few days. Along the past years, I've earned myself a spot along the wall, watching everyone feel that instant connection with their beloved that's impossible to explain. My three younger sisters were no exceptions. But tonight, however, was different; rather than constantly waiting to be noticed, I was going to get myself noticed, and my target was the hands

As a matter of fact, I've been fantasying about her by day and dreaming about her by night, and the worst part of it all is that my wolf, Kyla, was also obsessed with her. What's so special about her, I've thought, but found nothing. She's only but another cheap she wolf who would go any height to get the attention of a male, especially one of high ranking, large wallet, and power. I've met a lot of wolves like her in the past, and I never even spared them a thought, so why was it so hard to get this particular wolf out of my head? Maybe because her face was hidden in the darkness and I didn't even get her name. Yes, that should be it. 'Just admit it, you fell in love at first sight.' Kyla squealed, and I instantly choked on my breath. Love? I call that bullshit. I'd probably g****e up the meaningless four-letter words if I didn't have such a huge ego. Love was a word I detested m

He had ordered them to rip out their hearts, so it will look like the shapeshifter demon did it, and no one was ever going to avenge their deaths.
