The room was full of wolves, and my scent glands were going haywire. Gathering so many wolves in one place always did this to me. My nose was sensitive, and I had to take a few deep breaths to calm myself. โ€œYou girls ready?โ€ I looked up at my father and nodded.

โ€œCan we enter without you guys?โ€ I asked my father. โ€œWhy?โ€ I smiled over at Cas, who was on Ronnieโ€™s arm. โ€œIโ€ฆโ€ โ€œYou are planning something with the she-wolves, arenโ€™t you?โ€ โ€œYup.โ€ I smiled up at him and slipped my arm out of his. โ€œIf you hear a large fight, show up. But I swear, Dad, if you fawn over another she-wolf in front of me, I will hit you.โ€

My dad laughed at me. โ€œI promise I wonโ€™t, and if by the smallest chance I do, you have full access to punch me in the face.โ€ He smiled down at me, and I stood on my tiptoes and kissed his cheek. โ€œThanks, Daddy.โ€ โ€œYouโ€™re welcome, my girl.โ€

I pulled my arm from his and held my hand out for Cassie. โ€œLetโ€™s go.โ€ โ€œAre you sure, Amy?โ€ โ€œYes, yes I am.โ€ I smiled down at her, and she shook her head with a small smile. โ€œChin up. Donโ€™t worry. I got you.โ€ She nodded, and we opened the door and headed down the steps.

When we reached the middle of the stairs, everyone had stopped to stare at us. โ€œThey are staring,โ€ Cas whispered to me, and I smiled. โ€œItโ€™s because we look so hot,โ€ I whispered back as the smell of lust hit her in the face. She stumbled, but I held her up, and we kept heading down until we hit the bottom of the stairs. โ€œLetโ€™s go get a drink.โ€ I pulled her to the bar and ignored the stares of all the men and women around us. โ€œWhy are they staring?โ€ โ€œI already told you. We look hot.โ€ I handed her a glass of champagne and clinked my glass against hers. โ€œYour birthday is in a few days, and these men are your potential mates. Take today and enjoy it, for your life will change when you hit eighteen.โ€ I knew that Cas found her mate the day she turned eighteen, and he was a good man. I couldnโ€™t remember who it was exactlyโ€”a guard or someoneโ€”but she was happy.

I stopped coming here once I accepted Brandon. He forbade me from coming, saying he couldnโ€™t live with me being so far. It sounded sweet at first, but later on, I realized it was just his need to control me.

โ€œWhat the fuck are you wearing, you tramp?โ€ A screech rent the air, and the people around us grew quiet. I smiled into my glass as Cas paled, but I patted her back and turned. โ€œExcuse me?โ€ I took a small sip of my drink and faced Aurora. She was dressed in a pale white sheath dress and matching pearl necklace. Amanda was in a pale blue bodycon dress, with a matching choker necklace. They were stunning, but no match for me and Cas. โ€œThat dress and necklace were supposed to go to my niece.โ€ Amanda stood next to her aunt with her eyes staring at the floor.

I quirked an eyebrow. โ€œI bought them; they are mine. I allowed my best friend to borrow it. What is the issue?โ€ I tilted my head to the side and stared at the two. โ€œBullshit. You bought them knowing that Amanda wanted them, and allowed that weak wolf to strut in here in front of us.โ€

I took a deep breath and then squared my shoulders. โ€œSo?โ€ Aurora reeled back. She sputtered in front of me for a moment, and I took a step towards them. โ€œWho are you to tell me what I am able to do? Are you my parents? Are you a gamma, beta, or an alpha? No. Then why does it matter?โ€ Aurora growled. โ€œIt matters because weaker wolves need to know their place.โ€ โ€œI agree. Weaker wolves should know their place,โ€ I growled out, and Nix flashed in my eyes, and Amanda started to shake.

Aurora didnโ€™t catch my meaning, but she puffed up her chest and went to grab Cas, but I stepped in front of her. โ€œMove.โ€ She stomped her foot and let out her power. It crashed against me, and I wanted to laugh. She was so weak, but she felt like she was a bigger threat. โ€œDonโ€™t touch her.โ€ โ€œMove.โ€ Aurora tried to go around me, but I grabbed her wrist and flung her back until she was on her ass.

Her power lashed out again, but it washed over me. Cas whimpered again, but I kept her behind me. I growled out loudly, and then the crowd opened up, and my dad walked up through the crowd. โ€œWhat the hell is going on?โ€ My dad looked from me to Aurora. Once his eyes locked onto Aurora, I could see his eyes grow hazy. โ€œDevlin.โ€ Aurora got to her feet and ran into my fatherโ€™s arms. I wanted to growl, but I held myself in check. โ€œThis girl was bullying me and my niece.โ€

His eyes moved to me, and I could see he didnโ€™t recognize me. I walked up to my father and stood in front of him. โ€œHow dare youโ€ฆโ€ He growled out, and I pulled back and punched him square in his face.
