You're mine

Chapter 8

Accalia (Lia) pov
Dinning room was filled with people. I haven't met most of them and I felt like my anxiety is rocketing high. At the top of the long table I saw Jackson and Cecil with gamma Hunter and who I assumed was a prince.

He was the most handsome wolf my eyes have ever seen. Forest green eyes, dark brown hair, lots of muscle clearly visible under his... snap out of it ! I mentally winced.
He has a fiancé!
And even if he hasn't he's not my mate! And even if he was... do you think he would actually look at someone like you?! Oh, moon goodness have a mercy! Hundred of different scenarios battled in my mind. I am being ridiculous. Unrealistic even.
I took a deep breath in, this amazing smell again and dropped my eyes to the floor as I was told to do my whole life.

Jackson noticed me and got up out of his chair.
He stepped towards me and grabbed my hand pulling me behind him, towards his chair.

-"you look beautiful, little one!" He half whispered

I didn't say anything.
I couldn't.
I was more brave to talk to bears but there were wolves in here also and I wasn't sure how they will react. After all I was less then omega at this point. I was a rouge.

Cecil greet me with a big smile. His mate sat next to him- she was one of the most pretty girls I've seen. They love each other so much. She didn't mind my presence at all. Her and Brian became one of my closest friends last few weeks. I'm still struggling to open fully to them and tell them everything but baby steps we will get there one day- maybe- unless I won't be here anymore..
this dark thoughts caught me off guard again.
Cecil lift my chin so I look at him. His grin wide.

-"he's right, you look beautiful!" Two things happened at this point.

One
A huge blush immediately covered my cheeks.

And two
A loud growl was heard throughout the room.

I looked down.
Did the prince just growl?
Why on earth would he do that?
Jackson quickly averted the situation

-"Griffin this is Lia, the wolf I told you about.." he looked at the prince with a bit of a humor in his voice.

-"Lia this is prince Griffin and gamma Hunter from the Red royal pack"
-"nice to meet you Lia" said the prince sticking out his hand for me to shake?

My eyes still directed to the floor. I swallowed.
Hunter stepped forward .

-"Griff you need to bring your royal aura down a bit you scaring her "- he almost whispered to prince.

-"its ok, I'm sorry I don't want to intrude anyway I will just go" - I said barely audible.

Why on earth would I talk to them ! I must be possessed! I never talk to strangers and definitely shouldn't talk to a prince!

Hunter grab my wrist as I was trying to go to the other side of the room. He lift my chin up with his other hand and looked in my eyes.

-"thank you for bringing my mate to me Lia. I knew I know you from somewhere. I hope you didn't have any problems because of me"

-"no sir"- I quickly answered. To quickly
Hunters eyes covered gray. Mind link. He was still holding my hand when he growled out of nowhere.

He closed his eyes for a second and when he opened them, they were back to normal colour- with a bit of yellow specs on the edges. He's wolf peeking out.

-"I'm so sorry Lia" - he said and hugged me.

-"if I knew what will happen to you I would never leave you there".- he continued, sadness filling up his face.
