Previously on Our Pain:

Once we opened the big doors, the bar fell in complete silence and everyone looked at me in shock.

"Wow here, what's happened-Alice, is that you?!?!"

"Hey forsy-pie"

Betty pov
I looked ahead of us and saw a man in his probably mid 40's. Then I looked closer and I recognized him, he was the man that my mom kept pictures of everywhere in the house and doesn't shut up about. He's definitely mom's mate, Fp. Mom ran up to him and pulled him in a passionate kiss full of love, how can something like that be at the same time cute but disgusting?

Moving on, there was this delicious lingering minty smell in this bar or club or whatever that place is, and I look around me acknowledging my surroundings for the first time since we stepped foot in this place. A pack. A werewolf pack. Oh! It's the serpent bar. Now I get it. Finally I can see some werewolves, it's been too long since I've befriended one.

I'm still looking everywhere around me trying to figure out who each person is. Because you know, my family's witch bloodline is powerful so like I can know what everyone's name is and what they do for a living just by looking at them.

Though my mom tells me that no witch can do that so I'm not sure why I can. That's exactly why I knew what Sweet Pea, Toni and Fangs's names were without knowing them.

I figured everyone out, but still that lingering beautiful smell didn't make any sense to me. Then there was a low raspy voice coming from the staircase across the bar.

"Dad what happened heree..." his voice faded away as he looked at me, and damn was he just GORGEOUS. My breath hitched in my throat, my heart skipped a beat, my legs went numb and my cheeks turned into a new shade of pink. He is dead drop handsome end of the discussion. He was making his way over to us, his gaze not darting away from mine. I joined him mid-way not being able to stop myself.

He was still looking at me in such a mysterious and, dare I say, loving way? He stretched out his hand for me to shake, I was hesitant at first, not wanting for what I think is, to be the truth and confirm my assumption.

"Jughead, Jughead Jones. And you m'lady are?"
I looked at my mother who was clutching onto Fp's arm, afraid, like she knew something, like she had a vague idea of what this splendid scene I found myself into was about. I looked back at jughead, and was still hesitant but cave in.

"Betty Smith" I then took his hand in mine and felt this amazing feeling of electricity coursing through my veins.
I moaned slightly at that wonderful feeling, again, not being able to contain myself. Not even two minutes ago did I meet him and he already had that effect on me. And what's worse is that I loved it.

"mine." He growled lowly. He then smirked at me after seeing my reaction; widened eyes and opened mouth as shock consumed me. Pushed me flat against his chest as his blue ocean eyes set fire to my soul. "It's nice to meet you betty", "and it's nice to finally meet you Alice Smith, my father wouldn't shut up about how gorgeous you and your family are, and I personally find your daughter here, such a beautiful woman." I looked at him in shock at how he figured us out, and at the fact that he called me a beautiful woman. My mom and Fp exchanged worried looks.

"it's nice to finally meet you too jughead, my sources always tell me about how great of a person you are and I couldn't wait to finally see what my mate's son is capable of". My mom moved her gaze from Jughead and me's position to fp.

"Ali-cat what are you guys doing here, oh and it's nice to see you Hiram and Hermione again", "and I guess that is your daughter? Did you call her Camila like you were planning to years ago? Good afternoon Camila. Oh and hello polly good to see you in person, and not through a weird witchy thing your mother did when she was pregnant with your sister", "and you betty, you have no idea how much I've heard about you, it's very lovely to meet you."

It was obvious that he was rambling out of nervousness. I took manners into my own hands and answered him before anyone could comment on his obvious nervous behavior.

"well fp, it's nice to finally see you and not just hear stories from my mom's childhood. And yes my cousin's name is indeed Veronica Camila Lodge. My sister Polly might look annoyed by you right now but she is annoyed with anyone amd everyone who crosses her path. Now onto more serious business, me and my family are here because we were able to get rid of those hidious three faced creatures, well I presume we were, considering the fact that we're here, in front of you guys."

Everyone looked at me like I was crazy for registering all his questions. I looked up at jughead, wanting to catch his reaction, and he was looking at me in awe, and it made me blush hard. He smirked a little at me, obviously amused by the way he made me feel.

"ok now why don't we all go to your office forsy-pie, we could get a little of privacy to talk seriously about our problems." Fp nodded his head and lead us to an office at the top of the staircase where jughead came from a few minutes ago. Once all our families in the office, Fp closed the door, locked it and looked in our direction with a worried expression plastered on his face. "let's talk business now. Shall we?"

And by the looks on all the adults' faces, I knew that a lot of secrets were to be unraveled. Things were about to get real' messy.
