I look around the foyer at the bright fairy lights decorating the high ceiling with the flowers wrapped nicely around the surrounding pillars, there's a lot of effort gone into the presentation here and I'm surprised to find such a large space this building holds.
"Beautiful"
I turn to see a well dressed man in a suit stepping up to me with a smile on his face. He's quite handsome with blonde short hair and dimples appearing on his cheeks as his smile grows from me acknowledging him
"It's stunning they did a great job" i smile back at him
"I wasn't talking about the decorations" he replies smirking at me
I blush from realising he's talking about me as it's only us two standing here with a few people down from us chatting away. I mentally huff out at the thought of a stranger complimenting me as my own mate didn't say a word about my dress.
He extends his hand and not wanting to be rude i go to shake his hand
"Alpha Reynolds and what is your name gorgeous?" He says bringing my hand up and gently kissing the top of my hand
I retract my hand slowly trying not to offend him as it just felt uncomfortable
"Mia" I say smiling back with my hand safely back by my side
He smiles sweetly at me as he holds out his arm slightly turning in the direction of the big open doors ahead, I look through the doors and see so many people.. Some still standing and some already seated from what i can see.
"Would you be so kind to let me escort you in? as it's about to begin" he says casually
I look around the room I'm in for Ethan he said he was going to be back in just a second and told me to wait here but it's been longer than a second. I look back at alpha Reynolds, so this is the guy Ethan was talking about I'm not sure what to make of him. apart from his forwardness he seems ok.
"I don't bite" he says still smiling back at me raising an eyebrow
I nod my head as I step forward placing my arm in his as we walk towards the doors entering the large room
There's so many tables and there's people scattered everywhere the hall is massive if that's even what this place is?
He walks me past many tables heading towards the front. there's a stage at the end with a micro phone place in the middle
I get odd looks from people as we pass them by
"Told you she's just after an alpha"
I snap my head to the direction I heard the comment to see a girl I kind of recognise she's now dressed in a pretty light pink dress, I frown at her realising that's Stacey I only met her briefly a few nights ago but I'm sure that's her.
What was that suppose to mean? I'm not power hungry and even if my mate was a omega I would still feel the same. I mentally chuckle to myself. if my mate was an omega I'm sure he would have been a lot easier to talk to
We round a table that is placed at the front but to the side on the end as he looks at the name tags
"I'm sure we can fit you here somewhere" he says looking over the names
He goes stiff as he than looks back to me
"Mia right?" He says frowning now
I nod my head and feel weary of his sudden mood change.. What is with alphas and there stupid mood swings? I've never really been that close to alpha Hanes Though I never noticed him being like this.
