Milan: Queen of the Wolves

Chapter 10

Straightening my dress, I looked at myself in the mirror and grinned at my reflection. Imani surely is talented. She made me wear a blood red dress since that was what all females were supposed to wear with black heels and simple makeup. I pursed my blood red lips and pretended to kiss myself. Wow, I've never really seen this girly side of me. What is this world doing to me?

I really look different. Just as I was about to put on the silver necklace I was given by Elliot, he appeared out of nowhere and said, "perfect". I blushed and thanked him and that's when he laughed and said that was for himself. "But you look beautiful, my love" he said when I pouted and placed the cold silver on my neck and kissed the crook of my neck. I blushed at our reflection.

We walked out happily, joking about all the blood that I'll be overwhelmed with tonight. We reached the staircase and that's when a spotlight focused on us as everyone turned to look.

"Shall we?" I looked at Elliot's hand that he had offered me and took it. He offered me a small smile and I tried my best to return it. As we walked down everyone gasped. Only now did I realise the position that I was in. I was mated to the Alpha King. I'm Milan, Queen of the wolves.

Holy shit, this isn't real.

As we walked down I took in the decor. The carpet was blood red(no surprise there), fairy lights hung around everywhere and there were tables for two covered with rose petals. A separate table of four was kept reserved for us- Elliot, I, King Adrian and for his beloved in case he found her tonight. I really hope he gets an amazing girl to rule beside him.

The scenes were quite horrifying for my human eyes to see. The males bit down into the necks of the females the moment they realised they were mates. The stench of Blood filled the scented air. Elliot guided me around as he introduced me to few of the people he knew. My heart swelled up when he referred to me as his mate and his queen.

As we were talking to another vampire couple people started whispering all of a sudden. They were all talking about a certain "her" who had finally arrived. I looked around and soon enough the crowd made way for a girl about my age with long blonde hair and an extremely short red dress which was revealing.

She walked up to us and offered me a fake smile which I returned bitterly. She makes my blood boil. I don't like her at all.

"Elliot!!" she squealed and jumped into his arms. I expected him to push her away from him since his mate was next to him but he shocked me by wrapping his arms around her waist and kissing her cheek. He looked happy to see her. Does he..? No no. He wouldn't make me leave my family if that was the case.

Gosh, I miss my mom so much. Alistair must be going mad being with her all alone. And her meat loafs.. Oh those horrible meat loafs of hers. I miss them too.

Elliot and the girl seemed to forget about me as they continued chitchatting about how much they've changed. Annoyed as I was, I walked away without excusing myself and I doubt he even realised that I left.

Walking towards one of the tables I picked up a glass of cranberry juice and just as I raised the crystal glass to my lips someone snatched it from my hand and placed it back.

"What the hell?" I glared at King Adrian who was smirking. "That was blood, Ms.Chandler. Wouldn't want you to get any disease" he chuckled. I gulped at the thought of having to drink another humans blood. To be honest, I've tasted my own blood and it wasn't that bad.

I replaced my shocked look with an irritated look and said, "I know. I'm just pissed at your best friend. He's ignoring me just because of that slut standing next to him" I grumbled.

"That's Shania Griffiths, Miss. I don't think you know that she happens to be Ellie's childhood crush. He has obviously moved on but they have still remained friends over all these years. She is known to be one of the most powerful witches of our time. Lorenzo Griffiths' spoilt sister." He glared at the glass in his hand.
