Drinks. Lots of Drinks

2 episodes of Vampire Diaries later and it was finally time for the opening ceremony( writing that all I think about is The Hunger Games) We each give each other a once over touching up our hair and our makeup making sure we look our best before walking out the door. I give my boobs a quick fix to make them look a little bigger before walking out the door behind Anna.

We slowly make our way to the ball room careful not to trip over our feet since we are in heels. We reach the ball room doors which are wide open with lots of tables with people all around. I see waiters floating around with trays of champagne glasses. Don't mind if I do. I think to myself. My wolf rolls her eyes at me. I link my arm with Annas before we enter the ball room. Everyone stops what they are doing and turn towards us, instantly all eyes are on us.

"Do I have something on my face?" I lean over and quietly ask Anna.

"No you idiot they're all looking cause you look hot as fuck." She says pulling my forward through the room. She sees Dereks and lets go of her hold on my arm making her way over to him. I look around the room before spotting my parents and siblings making my way to them. My mom spots me walking across the room and smiles at me.

"Honey way to make an entrance!" She says giving me a high five. A laugh at her behavior.

"Ya I wasn't expecting everyone to stop and stare." I tell her. A waiter walks by me and I grab 2 champagne glasses off his tray handing one to my mom and downing half of my glass. I sit down at the table the rest of my family was at, my mom sitting down in between me and my father giving him a kiss on the cheek.

All of a sudden the room goes silent. At the exact same time my wolf perks up. I take a deep breath in getting a whiff of the air after it rains. My arms tingle with goose bumps and my mouth begins to water at the smell. I slowly turn around and assess the room trying to located the source of the smell. My eyes stop on a Greek god of a man. Standing at least 6'5 walking through the room with power pouring off of him in waves. His eyes kept forward not taking even a glance to look around the room. I focus in on his head, and on top lays a gold crown. Shit he's the king. I think to myself. My wolf hums in satisfaction. He's the king. She says to me in a seductive manner.

He walks up onto the stage and stands in front of a microphone. All eyes are on him I slowly check him out from head to toe, my eyes burning a hole into his clothes. Mate. He's my mate. Mate not notice us. My wolf says to me.

"Greetings everyone. I am Alpha Beckett. It is a pleasure to have you all here with us tonight and thought out the weekend. I won't have you guys stay here to long today, we all have an early morning ahead of us tomorrow." He says. He turns away from the microphone walking towards the thrown that is in the center of the stage. I let out a deep breath that I didn't realize I was holding in. I down the rest of my drink before waving over the waiter for another glass. I grabbed 2 just to be on the safe side.

Why wouldn't he look at me? Did he not feel the mate pull as I did? Maybe he had yet to smell me since there was so many people in here. I downed both glasses of fresh champagne. It sucks I wanted to be drunk right now but werewolves have such high metabolism that it will take a lot to get me to feel even the slightest tipsy. Challenge excepted. I say to myself. As the waiter once again walks by I stand up from my seat and take the entire tray from him grasp.

"I'll be needing this all thank you very much." I say to him. I turn to take a quick glance at the king only to find him staring daggers at me. Ignoring his gaze I sit back down with my tray of champagne and start drinking each glass. My mom sees me and leans over to me.

"Honey, what's wrong?" She questions.

"I found my mate. But he refuses to acknowledge my presence. I think he will reject me mom." I say through gritted teeth. She gasps.
