" And you know what? You planned to catch a whole bunch of rogues but in the end, you never did because there are many loopholes that you didn’t think about. You know what Tommy, you’re not an alpha and you’ll never be an alpha. Just accept that because my brother and our family will always have the power in this pack.”
His face contorts before he growls and walked outside of the masquerade party. Today, we are gatecrashing the crowning moment of our rival family.
They will let their oldest son which is a mystery man for everyone have the crown of being alpha but tonight we plan to ruin everything.
To let them succumb to the power of the Creed family. Our family, but that dumb beta of this pack suddenly talked about canceling our plan because of his guts.
My brother bump into my shoulder.
“ If you’re just a man, you can have Tommy’s place,” he said which makes me smirks. Silas is my only brother and the alpha of our pack.
“ If I am a man, I will be the alpha instead of you,” I teased and he hissed because he knows that it is possible for that to happen.
“ And….the plan begins,” he grins when I leaned closer to whisper on his ears.
Part of our plan is to join the crowd until the crowning moment of the alpha is revealed.
He signals our pack to get ready when the slow music of jazz infiltrated the place.
Everyone started to find and dance at the center. “ Dance?” my brother said before he pulls me to the dancefloor not waiting for my answers.
He snakes his hand into my waist before we dance to the tune of the music but we didn’t let our guard down. It is our task to survey the place, to identify the new Alpha, and to lure him outside to have him beheaded or captured, for the downfall of their clan.
The music is too soothing but notice how my brother’s movement suddenly shifted. Silas keeps on glancing in a certain direction, only for me to saw a girl who’s obviously flirting with her.
She’s wearing a silky red dress with her ash-blond her, freely flowing to her bareback. Indeed, beautiful but somehow, I felt uneasy.
Silas chuckles. “ We’ll change partners,” he said before he sways me around, only for me to land on a stranger's arm. I was stiffed for a second but the moment that his hands touch my waist, there is an electrifying feeling.
He smirks behind his black mask. “ Hey, beautiful.” With his red bow lips and perfect set of white teeth, I would definitely compliment his looks but his aura is too dangerous. A set of danger in authority.
They say you can always know who’s dangerous, and right now, I know that this man is more than that.
“ What’s your name?” Even his voice sounded like danger. It was deep and dark but heck, it was hot. The way how he sways our body to the sound of the song, it was hot.
He leans closer and I froze when he sniff my long red hair. “ You know, this hair caught my attention.”
“ T-Thanks..” A cough slips out of my mouth to clear my words. It sounded so innocent and fragile. He laughs before he spins me around, making me stopped my breathing because of his sudden attempt but he knows what he’s doing when I successfully landed back in his chest.
