Angelica's POV

I slip into the dress after having done my hair and makeup, my mom helped me get into it and she turns me towards the mirror and says

"just beautiful"

I smile and look at myself in the mirror, my red dress making me looked tanned, the slit showing my leg giving a little tease of my thigh. I smile and say

"oh my gosh mom I look great! Thank you so much!"

She smile and whispers

"you're not quite done yet"

She grabs the mask and gently places it on my face and ties it at the back. I look up and I can't even recognize myself, the mask makes me look mysterious, sexy. I hug my mom and say

"thank you"

We walk out and I look over to my dad and he's frowning but before he can say anything my mom steps in and says

"not one word"

He sighs and nods and continues to walk to the car. My brothers frown at my outfit but don't say a word as they help their mate into the car. We all get into the limo and we're off, my dad takes out some champagne and everyone has a glass except me. I watch as they drink and the boys take care of their pregnant mate and my parents are cuddling and enjoying their champagne. 

We finally get to the castle and I can't believe how big it is, we all get out and walk up to the front doors. They take our coats and my mom comes over to me and says

"I'll keep your brothers and dad distracted, go have fun, explore a bit! I hear they have great gardens!"

She smiles and walks away with my father and I giggle as I walk in a different direction. I go around the ballroom and I find a small balcony, I look back into the crowded room and sigh, it's all the same thing, stuffy boys, stuffy moms. Urgh. I look back out over the edge and into the gardens feeling relaxed.

I walk into the ballroom feeling like I should just say hi then I can go look at the gardens. I walk in and bump into two bodies and I say

"oops sorry"

Then simply walk off without looking up or giving myself a chance to make a fool of myself, but for some reason... I find it hard to walk away. Weird.

Xavier's POV

I feel a small body bump into mine as my brother and I go to walk out to the gardens, I look down and hear only a whisper of an apology then some red disappearing into the crowd. I look back as does my brother and I ask

"did you feel that?"

He nods and looks over at me and whispers

"do you think it could be her? our mate?"

I shrug and say

"I'm not sure, she did smell delectable, lets see if we can find her, we find her we possibly find our little girl"

We wear smirks on our faces as we split up going to look for our little mate.
