Every single person came and greeted almighty Alpha Daxon Valor. As all the greetings get over. The dance again started and a melodious music again started playing at the slow rhythm. Couples started dancing and enjoying on the pace of the music.
But Hazel was sitting sadly beside Alexander thinking 'How she embarrassed him.' 'She is good for nothing.' 'She don't deserves him.' 'She is such a disgrace to him.' She was continuously blaming herself for letting Alexander down. Her heart was aching at lot with this unbearable guilt and pain. On the other hand, Alexander was thinking if Hazel's behaviour would have offended Alpha Daxon then there is no way he will sign that peace treaty. No! He will not let that happen no matter what.
Daxon was gazing at Hazel from a very long distance and saw her sitting beside Alexander, her head lowered and gaze on the lap. 'Our mate' Storm again whispered in his mind feeling so much helpless. His mate is sitting in front of him but he can't hug her, kiss her, shower his all love on her. Even if Daxon is not feeling any connection towards her but his wolf instincts are much powerful than his human instincts and Storm is feeling a very pure and eternal connection towards her.
Daxon tried to calm his wolf down thinking he is misunderstanding her with someone else. But he was confused himself that how his wolf instincts can be wrong it is impossible. Nonetheless he had a conversation with his wolf bit he was not ready to listen anything and was only chanting 'mate' like a mantra after seeing Hazel.
Daxon clenched his jaw when his wolf became almost uncontrollable. He clutched his fists tightly and stood up from his place. He strode towards where Alexander and Hazel was sitting in a corner. He stood up in front of them. Alexander raised his head gazing at Daxon, he stood up immediately confused and scared at the same time what he have to say to him but before he can ask anything Daxon extended his hand towards Hazel.
"May I have a dance, with the most beautiful lady present here?" he asked like a gentleman giving her a honest complement.
Even if he had not seen her his wolf knew his mate is the most beautiful woman on this planet. Hazel gazed at him through her veil she was confused that why is he calling her beautiful when he didn't even saw her? And scared at the same time looking at this dangerous looking stranger. But she knew Alexander will surely deny him because he don't let any other man come near her.
"Y-yes sure why not?" Alexander said hastily making Hazel's eyes widened and her snapped at him.
'What?' she was confused as hell. How come his own possessive husband let her dancing with any other man? Alexander motioned her with his eyes to put her hand in his.
Alexander was feeling so rage inside him. He didn't even liked a bit that she will get any other man's touch on her but he can't deny him. He don't want to do any mistake so he will cancel to sign the peace treaty. He can do anything for that peace treaty just because he is scared for his life now. Slowly and slowly his men are dying and he don't want the death come to him. He clenched his fists tightly and Daxon's keen gaze caught his actions. He internally smirked at him.
Hazel hesitantly put her dainty hand in Daxon's rough hand. As soon as their hands connected his inner wolf purred in pure bliss. It turned down much happy and overjoyed when his mate touched him. He was ready to tackle down in a tight hug showings everyone she is his mate. Only his.
But Daxon maintained his posture and gently took her to the middle of the hall in between the couples. Hazel was so scared of this stranger. What of he had any bad intentions towards her? But only if she knew.
Daxon stopped and turned towards her and watch her gazing at the floor. He gently held her chin with his thumb and forefinger and raised her head high. "Always look up, Sugar." he said to her making her eyes widened at the foreign endearment this stranger just gave to her. But nonetheless she nodded not wanting to offend him and embarrass Alexander anymore. One thing Daxon noticed from through her veil was her grey eyes. So this woman is a grey eyed enchantress. Amazing!
"May I?" Daxon asked her for her consent before putting his hand on her waist. She hesitantly nodded at him.
He draped her arm around her waist gently suddenly her body became tensed. Not because she was uncomfortable from him, but she was not feeling any uncomfortableness from his touch. Suddenly a different kind of feeling bloomed in her heart. Like she know this touch. Her heart started beating at fast pace like it was stilled until now.
"You can put your hands on my shoulders." suddenly her chain of thoughts break when she heard his husky voice.
She raised her head and gaze in his black eyes which have a odd shine in them now. She slowly placed her hands on his shoulders making a spark ran through his body. His inner wolf again purred. His palm was radiating heat giving her a warm feeling from him.
"You seem tensed?" he asked her swaying her at a low pace on the rhythm of the music. She shook her head in a no denying his statement he nodded at her.
"Can we be friends?" suddenly he asked her making her perplexed. Why he wants to be friends with her? And the same question was running in his mind that why the hell he asked her that question? Friends? He don't make friends. Heck! He don't have one until now. He don't know what more irrational things Storm will make him do. He was speechless.
"N-No I'm not allowing to." For the first time she talked to him. Her sweet and slow voice make his mind Ho numb. Every thoughts in mind stilled.
Her voice was so slow like a whisper but for him it was like music to her ears.
"Why do you even need permission for it?" he asked her raising his brow moving her left to right gently. Hazel watched him confused that why is he so interested in talking to her.
"I don't k-know." she replied him not even knowing the answer herself. Daxon nodded at her.
"If you don't mind can I ask you something?" he asked her coldly yet softly. He don't even know why he is treating her so gently he is not like this they why? Hazel nodded her head praying in her mind he don't ask something now that she don't have answer of.
"Why do you wear veil and gloves and always keep yourself covered?" he asked her this time really curiously.
Hazel sighed at his question. "A-Alexander says it is for my safety. I'm not a werewolf like you all just a mere human." she said again lowering her head on the floor.
Daxon wanted to laugh loud at this logic of her. But he gently raised her head up again and said "What I told you to always keep your head high? Hmm." he said to her and she muttered a quick 'Sorry'.
"Don't be offended but if he is a man enough he can protect you from anything and any one." she said in a mocking way which straightly hitted to her mind.
