Ngusoi scanned Oon up and down as he adjusted his bow tie, the tux that his tailor had delivered this afternoon fit Oon like a second skin, the pants caressing his bottom like a lovers hands.

His beast was close to the surface and his eyes glowed in desire as he took in his appearance and now that Oon's senses weren't clouded by fear he could see that the colour he had initially thought was mustard was actually more of an antique gold, rich and opulent just like Ngusoi's home.

Ngusoi had procured a pair of crutches to help Oon to stand though he had instructed his mate to sit whenever he had the opportunity and while Ngusoi helped him with his tie, Oon took the opportunity to look at Ngusoi.

If he had thought that the lycan looked hot dressed in his sweat pants, now wearing a designer tux with a gold brocade waistcoat beneath that made his beasts eyes pop even more, Ngusoi looked good enough to eat and Oon couldn't help unconsciously tracing his tongue across his lips.

Ngusoi noticed the action, his eyes following Oon's pink tongue as it slid seductively across his lips before disappearing back into the moist enclosure that Ngusoi longed to explore.

"I think we should ..." Ngusoi began.

"yeah, you shouldn't be late" Oon added.

"I'll carry you to the car" Ngusoi said before scooping up his sexy little penguin and heading to the elevator.

An hour and a half later they were enjoying champagne and canapés while mixing and mingling with Vietnam's finest, well, Ngusoi was, Oon couldn't drink because of his pain meds. The gala was being held on the rooftop of an exclusive hotel and while Ngusoi chatted with acquaintances, Oon kept his eyes on all the entrances.

Two hours into the gala, Narong and Nakhun finally made their appearance and everyone wanted to be introduced to them. Ngusoi patiently waited for the opportunity to speak with them both but Oon managed to catch Nakhun's eyes and waved frantically while keeping out of Ngusoi's eye line.

Nakhun's eyes widened in surprise then he leaned in to whisper to Narong who looked up at him then followed his gaze across to Oon who was still gesticulating frantically.

One thing Ngusoi was not and that was stupid, he had been watching Oon's reflection in a mirror which hung opposite them and obviously Oon hadn't realised that he could see everything his mate was doing behind him.

He was also aware that the Mapapreet's were slowly making their way across the room to them and eventually they reached them through the crowds.

"what the hell ... what are you doing here Oon?" Narong said.

"I'm waiting for Raz and Pon but they are snowed in at some hotel in Canada, I've not heard from them in day's" Oon began.

"what's wrong with your leg?" he asked.

"ah, it's actually my foot, I cut it but may I introduce Mr Ngusoi Korphannajhat" Oon began only to be cut off by Narong

"and you know him how?"

"Oon is my ..." Ngusoi said before being cut off by Oon

"ah, we met while exploring some caves and he's been taking care of me because of my foot and everything ... crikey I'll have to go to the little boys room" Oon said making faces at Nakhun.

"wait, I'll carry you" Ngusoi said.

"I can manage, thank you" Oon said.

"Oon, hang on I'll go with you, baby I'm just going to the bathroom" he said to Narong.
