He is my beast.

meeting him

"Look at my beautiful girl, going to the mating ceremony" belle rolled her brown colored eyes at her aunt, who was taking pictures of her, belle's aunt, Franky wiped invincible tears from her eyes

"aunt, stop being dramatic" belle said, as she straightened her purple gown, which was knee-length, the gown was not tight, but tight enough for her comfort, her sleeveless gown was complemented with black flats that had a bow on top, to belle's dissatisfaction

Belle was more of an introverted person, staying in, sleeping, playing mobile games, and even reading novels on a popular website, belle had classified herself as a lonely person who wants to stay like that, belle didn't fancy having a mate, she didn't just want one

"Plus, why are you forcing me to go, you know I don't like the idea of having a mate" Franky flicked her niece's forehead to which belle winced at

"even though im human it does not mean that I cant kick your lazy ass" Franky got in a karate position as belle deadpanned, facepalming at her aunt's behavior

"I have not evolved yet, im still seventeen, I haven't shifted " belle tried to reason

"blah, blah, blah, no hurry you are going to be late " belle rolled her eyes as Franky grabbed her hand and dragged her out of the house and into the limo that was arranged to bring her to the venue, Franky slammed the door shut and waved at belle as the car started moving, belle waved back lazily and rested her back on the couch

'great, it's only me, my phone, a bunch of gummy bears and a pepper spray' belle thought sarcastically, her aunt had dolled her up for the ceremony, she curled her hair up, she added make-up to her face, she bought her a dress that was an alien to all the clothes that belle had in her closet, as per being a sweatshirt and pant person, she even forced her to shave, aunt frank had turned belle opposite of what she was one hour ago.

The limo suddenly stopped signaling that she was at the venue, belle got out of the limo and glanced at the large building before her

'okay here's the plan, hide somewhere formate not to find us, steal food while on it and wait until midnight to run back to aunt Franky's house, okay? okay'

"wait did I just talk to myself," belle said out loud

'yes, you did'

"Okay, this is weird"

'yes, it is'

"can you stop?"

'im, not the one thinking, you're the one' belle rolled her eyes at herself as she entered the building not noticing the weird looks people gave her

Belle finally got to the banquet and walked towards the snack table, eating all she could take as she walked along with the snack table, the room was full of girls and boys that were looking for their significant other, and in front of them was a stage where 7 chairs were placed, 6 of them had been occupied with hot males, rendering the last one which was the center

Belle was clueless as to who they were, neither did she give a flying fuck

She started to look for places to hide, as she shoved brands of chocolates down her throat

The classical music playing was suddenly halted, which caught belle's attention

A man dressed in a tuxedo walked up the stage as he held a mike, possibly the announcer

"ladies and gentlemen, welcome, to this year's mating ceremony, where you find your mate and the male mates will take their significant other away from their family, bringing them to their homes, I see that most of you have found yours"

"and today with us, are our guests of honor, from the left, is alpha Xavier of west pack

Alpha Ryan of the red mountain pack

Alpha Alex of the moonstone pack

Alpha logan of the nightwalker pack

Alpha axel of the shadow moon pack

Alpha Damian of the midnight pack" the announcer said, he then glanced at the center seat, scratching his head nervously

" seems like alpha Brian is not her-" the announcer stopped talking as he saw a muscular figure entering the building, the dominant aura was very dense, the crowd was quiet as they turned their back towards the stage and looked at the alpha in a tuxedo

Belle suddenly noticed the silence and looked up from the snack table, freezing as she saw the crowd glance at her, she swallowed the prawn awkwardly, she then noticed that their attention was not on her but on what was behind her

"mate" she heard a deep voice say from behind her earning gasps from the crowd

'fuck' she swore as she slowly turned around and came face to face with a chest, she looked up more to see that the person was looking directly at her

"Ladies and gentlemen, alpha brian of the blood moon pack"

'I should've hidden when I had the chance'

'Yeah, no shit Sherlock'
