“Hurry up Jen we will get late.”

“Lia, I have to teach you so much more about parties. Rule no.1 always enter a party fashionably late and the most important rule is finding our mates or making out with a hot guy.”

I didn’t bother to reply her I just chuckled and dragged her out of the house. We both tip toed down the stairs. Suddenly someone from behind cleared their throat and we both panicked and looked behind us. What if the alpha or luna saw us, they will shout us.

We gulped and looked behind us slowly to see Daniel smirking down at us. Jen went up and hit him on his chest while I breathed out a sigh of relief. Dan was wearing a jeans and a black button down shirt with boots. He looked good and in others point of view a total hotty. Jen was wearing a mini black dress, she looked gorgeous. Any man would be ready to fall at her feets… my gorgeous friends.

While I was wearing a black cute short skirt and a silver and black crop top, a little exposing my belly button matching with black heels. I hate heels but Jenny promised it was worth it for the party.

Three of us quickly left the house and into the car. They both were excited to get drunk and I was excited if I could find my mate.

We reached after a half an hour long drive and were greeted my loud music blaring from a huge house.

Teenagers were walking in and out of that house. Some were very drunk..mostly humans I guess. And many couples were already making out in front porch..definitely mates. We rushed inside the house, the alpha’s son of the red moon pack immediately spotted us because of scent of Dan which smelled like power.

Both the future alphas nodded at each other and smiled in turn permitting us to crash their party.

Jen and I beamed when we saw teenagers dancing on the dance floor. She immediately dragged me to the dance floor where as Dan excused himself and went near the bar area. I danced along with her and a couple of strangers for about an hour. We had also gulped down many glasses of beers and cocktails and what not. We were somewhat still sober unlike the humans due to our quick alcohol metabolism.

While I was dancing I felt as though someone was staring at me. I turned and looked around the house but nothing. Even my wolf was getting restless. I asked what was the matter but she didn’t reply and just kept on pacing around nervously.

My wolf was always alert since my parents were killed by rogues and because the rogue named Casper was still alive and killing many wolves in other packs. Every werewolf was scared of him since he was very powerful, people believed that he was a Lycan. Lycans were the superior of were-wolves, they had so much power and magic. It was believed that Moon goddess herself gave those special wolves the blood of lycans to rule over every single werewolves. But Casper was different.

Every pack in all the states were given orders to bring him to the royal doors if found. But till now no one has found him.

Minute by minute my wolf was getting restless and I was getting irritated. So I blocked her thoughts. A little later I excused myself and went towards the restroom. I looked back at Jen but she was already dancing..seductively if I may add with a stranger. I chuckled and went to a corridor in search of the restroom.

The corridor was a little bit less crowded,only some humans were making out here and there.

I was walking in the corridor enjoying the silence but I sensed some wolf scent behind me. My wolf was already in defence mode ready to take whoever would come to hurt me.

I quickly turned and saw a familiar asshole, Jake smirking and walking towards me. Not again! I was already in fighting stance I will not let him touch me how he did this morning.

But it was no use, in less than a minute my back was crashed with the wall behind me and I was trapped between the wall and this asshole. The damn beta power! Even I was a daughter of beta in my old pack but I am a regular wolf in this pack. So he had a lot more strength than me.

I growled at him and tried to push him backwards. But he just tightened his hold on my shoulders and  pressed himself against me.

I need to do something fast. He chuckled proud that I was helpless and whispered, “Where is the boyfriend that you always talk about?” His throaty voice sending chills down my spines and my wolf was ready to kill him but I was controlling myself to not shift since there were humans here too and we were standing in a freaking corridor. I said though my gritted teeth, “Back off asshole!”

“Feisty, huh? I like it and this pretty little dress just turns me on even more. I can make you so much happy if you just break up with Dan.” He whispered in my ears and tucked a loose strand of hair behind my ears.

Happy with Jake…disgusting. How I wish he was a rogue so I would kill him right now without anyone’s permission but seeing his eye colour change, I froze.

Jake just chuckled and grabbed my face to kiss me. I immediately kneed him in his family jewels. He backed way and started groaning in pain. I took this opportunity and kicked his shin and when I was about to take off he quickly and harshly grabbed my ankle making me loose my balance. I took the support of the wall to prevent myself from falling. During my struggle of keeping my balance he straightened himself and grabbed my shoulders and pinned me against the wall with both my wrists above my head.

His eyes were now full black with his wolf taking over. He was staring at my neck where wolves usually marked their mates. Oh god no! he is going to mark me. He is not our mate my wolf was saying to me. She was telling me to back down and let her take over but my body was feeling too numb to do anything.

I think I am going to die alone in an unknown corridor or maybe worse get marked by Jake.
