“Cha-Cha real slow!”copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡg9iOMx6ghm
The girls and I vigorously danced to DJ Casper’s “Cha-Cha Slide”. Although, Ashley, Kenzie and I weren’t dancing with as much enthusiasm as Roxy and Blair; they were really going in!copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡuBvnDWiIK0
“How low can you go?” Blair sang along as she stooped low to the floor while dancing. “Can you go down low?”copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡGYgqkOAP6f
“All the way to floor?” Roxy pitched in as she attempted to twerk but failed miserably as she lost her balance and fell to the floor.copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡjnpBcc8isq
“Guess you should stick to ballet Rox and leave the twerking to professionals such as myself.” Blair laughed as she danced her way back into a standing position.copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡEX2alF6DoR
“No no no,” Roxy protested as she pushed her hair out of her face. “I can twerk, you just caught me off guard!”copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡE5PUv9I6ZP
“The only time I’ve seen you twerk other than today was when we went to Skyler’s party last month,” Ashley said eating a hand full of Skittles. “And you failed miserably that time too, and you weren’t even drunk.”copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡlidKTpX2Ip
“Gee, thanks for backing me up Ash,” Roxy sarcastically dead-panned.copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡtnnvxIbEmz
It had now been four hours since I’ve been at Roxy’s house; almost midnight actually, and I have to admit, these girls are a hell of a lot of fun to be around. The first thing we did was sit around and talk for the first hour. The girls seemed to be very interested in my life and the things that I did. Albeit, I thought my life was very boring since the only thing I did was eat, sleep, go to school, go to ballet, and watch Netflix but they didn’t seem to mind though. They also thought the story of how Roxy and I became friends was hilarious. Blair couldn’t stop laughing when I told her that my grandmother was the “masked gunman”.copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡv0EkUauDgu
After talking for about an hour, Mrs. Knox had made dinner for us so we all sat at the dinner table and ate; Roxy’s parents joining us as well. They too were very interested in how Roxy and I met and just like the girls, they were highly amused at the hilarious story. They soon retired upstairs, saying that they were tired.copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡtBMGmF6kIO
Then after dinner, Roxy pulled out the Wii and we played Mario Kart and JustDance. I lost miserably in Mario Kart, probably because the girls played more often than me and I hadn’t played the game since I was like ten with my brother Bradley. However, Roxy and I killed it in JustDance! We mainly danced to Disney songs and both of us got nearly perfect scores for each song. I guess ballet turned out to be useful for something after all. After running through most of the Disney songs, our bodies were still energized and ready to dance so we decided to dance to songs like “Cha-Cha Slide”, “Cotton-Eyed Joe”, and “Move Your Body”. I’m having a great time with the girls! It’s been so long since I felt and did something like this, just having fun with some friends.copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡKbb7HIPTmb
“Can you twerk Fi-Fi?” Blair asked as she sat down on the couch. They’d all adopted my nickname “Fi-Fi”, saying that it was absolutely adorable for someone like me.copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡtSc7d6iHJy
I coughed as I fought down the blush that was rising up my cheeks. “N-No, of course not!”copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡbcaYTxEZRm
“What do you mean of course not?” Kenzie raised an eyebrow. “You’ve got a big ass; you automatically can twerk.”copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡOBxZIfIy85
Here we go again. “What kind of stereotype is that?”copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡKBYWJb21TM
“It’s not a stereotype, it’s the truth,” Blair nonchalantly shrugged. “And all stereotypes stem from some form of truth.”copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡz5ZK3ShHS8
“Well I’m sorry to burst your bubble but, I can’t twerk,” I stated as I folded my arms across my chest.copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3GJBGrQp0Z
“Have you ever even tried before, Fee?” Roxy asked as she began scrolling through her phone.copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡvKAtGjEJlx
I paused before answering as Roxy gave me a sly look. “No, but-”copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡvVCvFFoWng
“Then you can’t say you don’t know how to twerk because you’ve never even tried.”copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5qXO2DgT3g
“I have no intentions of learning how to twerk!” I exasperated, getting a bit annoyed with the entire situation.copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡSy1t1HNGr8
“Don’t be like that Fee,” Roxy said as Finatticz – “Don't drop that thun thun thun” blared from the speakers. “Come on, I’ll teach you.”copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡdX4QsJvQGT
“It’s a no from me.”copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Lj4zmIQfL
“DON’T DROP THAT THUN THUN THUN! AYE DON’T DROP THAT THUN THUN THUN” Ashley sang as she and Roxy began twerking to the music. I must admit, they were doing a good job.copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡ78j8BlQo1h
“You guys are insane,” I laughed as Kenzie and Blair also joined in; with Blair climbing on top of the coffee table.copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡweeA4HkAy0
“You’re the only odd one out Fi-Fi!” Kenzie taunted.copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡtFMNKmascp
They’re not going to stop until I gave in, aren’t they? I sighed as I slowly walked towards them and Roxy quickly grabbed my hands and tried to get me to twerk.copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡdjyxs9SixT
“Ok first place your hands on your knees like this,” She instructed and I reluctantly followed. “Good now bend your back and your knees, then stick your butt out.”copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡA48PFdwZO4
I felt utterly ridiculous as I followed her commands. This doesn’t even feel comfortable.copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0iKM6u9gXl
“Great, now just move your ass to the beat of the music and then you’re twerking!”copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡGbFeI7nBqV
Letting out one last sigh I attempted to execute her instructions but from the snickering I heard behind me, I knew that I was doing a terrible job. “If you guys are going to laugh at me then I won’t do it anymore!”copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡv00EPFRmFG
“I said to move your ass not your back,” Roxy laughed as she tried to show me again. “Come on try again, just feel the beat in your body and let loose!”copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡrGYcs5HBlE
Sighing, I assumed the position once more and tried to move my body along to the rhythm of the song. I must’ve been doing it correctly because my thighs were beginning to ache; usually in dance if you feel pain then you’re doing it right.copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡX2PDgyLE9b
“Damn, go Fee!” Roxy cheered as she turned the music up louder.copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡAEcAj2faoV
“And you said you couldn’t twerk!” Kenzie gave me a knowing look.copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡRQBQ23VJFg
The initial feeling of bashfulness withered away as I became more confident with the girls edging me on. Who knew twerking could feel so empowering!copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡoDjegAM1eW
“Thank you, thank you!” I mocked bowed as the song ended. “Ok I’ll admit, that was pretty fun.”copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡdPBqpUsF5R
“Let’s try another song,” Blair said as she shuffled through Roxy’s music. “You have a playlist called ‘Twerkfest’ Rox?” She asked with a raised eyebrow.copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡAWHbMKfHuV
We all turned to give her questioning looks but she just shrugged. “Twerking is a great form of exercise ok so stop judging me.”copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡYSyh6PRTR6
“Ok, how about this,” Blair said as she played Beyoncé – 7/11. “You know this one, right Fi-Fi?”copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡP4VqulkX0p
“Who doesn’t know this?”copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡOAmwL8h1PL
“You’d be surprised,” Roxy stated as she began tying her hair up.copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡWOEu5LkXEb
“You know Rox is going in if she’s tying her hair up.” Ashley laughed as we watched Roxy begin to dance a hip-hop choreography to the song.copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4tgZTLleIl
My eyebrows raised, impressed as I watched her little routine. “I didn’t know you danced hip-hop.”copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡExW04H8lJY
“I’m a woman of many talents,” She smirked. “Now come on, I don’t want to be the only one dancing.”copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7FMLaSwuQb
“The beat of this song is different from the first one,” I grumbled as I tried to find my rhythm.copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡFUEWUyHfNp
“Just go for it Fee,” Roxy encouraged. “Dance like no one is watching; that’s my motto.”copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡArXws1eBnX
Easy for you to say, you’re a dancing prodigy.copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡzuCmgNfNh5
“Smack it, smack it in the air!” Kenzie clapped along to the song. “Legs moving side-to-side.”copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡYX0DTUcA9Z
Deciding to take Roxy’s advice, I “let go” and allowed the music to take over my body. It felt a bit instinctive, the beat was just catchy and I soon found myself vigorously dancing to the song; the girls all cheering me on in the background.copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0KqXhTZvum
“Don’t you drop that alcohol!”copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡt4R6r7TGVa
“I KNOW YOU CARE!”copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡMU8Mx1HJCR
I don’t know how much time had passed but the girls and I were still dancing as if there was no tomorrow. We’d run through about four songs already and were no currently dancing to Grown Woman by Beyoncé. We weren’t just twerking anymore; we were incorporating a myriad of African styled dance moves from the music video itself.copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡIDB9AS3Aox
“I love this song!” I beamed as I replayed it for the third time, trying my best to nail the choreography.copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡWRBOX2WQJR
“You’re pretty good at jazz styled dancing Fee,” Roxy said as she and the rest of the girls retired to the couch to watch me dance.copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1wM9jjb03O
“Really?” I questioned.copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡRMrtW2lZCK
I’ve only ever studied ballet dancing and let’s be honest, I feel miserable when I’m doing it. It’s just so stiff and controlled. But with this dancing, my body feels free and not as rigid, not to mention this dancing is much less painful than ballet.copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡxzB8nzbkqU
“You’re giving Beyoncé a run for her money in the music video.” Ashley chimed. The part when she dances at the end with the other ladies was my favorite. She just seemed so fierce, aggressive and powerful in her movement. Something that I want to be.copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡbsqYCJhOKl
I continued with my dancing, not having a care in the world. Not even noticing the sound of Roxy’s front door opening and closing, and the footsteps that were headed towards her living room. My eyes were closed, and I was lost in the rhythmic beat of the music. At least until I heard Roxy’s voice shout in anger and annoyance.copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡCC74536r3J
“I DON’T CARE! YOU HAVE TO STOP DOING THIS!” She shrieked.copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡbAjNJHnU1O
My eyes shot open in shock and the sight that was before me left my jaw unhinged and my eyes wide as my entire body heated up due to embarrassment. Oh no.copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡPdggbS0tHK
There in front of the doorway, standing in all his glory was Roman Knox. His dominant gray eyes were glued to my form as I stood there shaking like a leaf. Why God? Why did this have to happen to me? Just when I gained some confidence.copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡOjmVosZuT3
To make matters worse, my tank top and shorts had both ridden up due to my dancing and I quickly tried to pull them down to properly cover my midriff and thighs.copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡe5DxTnfghg
“This is her?” a feminine voice softly said. It surprised me that I could hear her even with the loud music blaring in the background.copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡ47ulnGen9V
My eyes quickly darted to the source, who was a tall, skinny, blonde that I hadn’t noticed before, standing on Roman’s right. Like everyone else in this little community, she was unnaturally gorgeous and had piercing green eyes, with flawless skin. Typical.copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8XfvTDXT8R
But something seemed different about her. Her eyes were scrutinizing me with such a high intensity that it made me squirm a little. She looked like the type of person you don’t want to mess with; I don’t even know her and I find her intimidating. One of her eyebrows were raised as her eyes raked me from head to toe. What’s her problem? I noticed that she stood very closely next to Roman and I felt my heart rate begin to speed up in jealousy.copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡXmXBUQY96f
Wait, what?copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡqbnUwKAK8K
Why am I jealous? I don’t even know Roman that well. I shouldn’t be upset just because he has a gorgeous girlfriend.copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡGgIVMByKvG
“Africa,” His deep voice resounded throughout the room. The song had now stopped and I internally cursed as I realized it wasn’t on auto play so that I could have some sort of white noise in the room.copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡBs3z3Xp27w
The way he said my name made chills crawl up my back. It sounded so regal from his soft-looking lips. His pink lips that look so inviting right now…Why are you thinking about his lips Fee!copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡixHFsep3Zx
“Ro-Roman,” I softly responded. I don’t know if it’s just the great lighting in here but I could’ve seen his eyes very clearly. I watched his already dilated pupils, shrink even more as I said his name.copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡNFOwAA79lD
He made a motion to step towards me but Roxy’s hand shot out and tightly gripped his wrist as she glared intensely at him. I’ve never seen her look so furious. “Get out of here, Roman!” She growled at him. I mean she literally growled like an animal! I even heard the deep rumbling in her chest. What in the actual fuck?copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡQX6TwaQVcY
I looked at the girls and they didn’t seem to be as startled as I was at that. Was that a normal thing for her?copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡsuw99Yoz2n
“Roxy?” I unsurely called out to her as I inched forward. “Are you alright?”copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Q2VmDwuNR
She shook her head and shut her eyes tightly as if she was in pain before speaking. “I’m fine Fee,”copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8DPewlpnhB
No one made a move and everyone’s eyes were darting between Roman and I. The girls were looking at me in question, the mystery blonde was staring at me in amusement and Roman’s eyes were gazing at me with a raw, passionate gaze that was making me very uncomfortable.copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡmJ6STfQhPT
Finally, he tore eyes away from mine to harshly glare down at his sister. “Roxy, come with me.”copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡFWJIS6lpA9
She scoffed. “I’m not going anywhere with you! You’re the one that needs to leave!”copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡhJM6XjrmGJ
“I said to COME WITH ME,” He suddenly boomed which scared the crap out of me. “NOW!”copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡY2s4VlkLC9
The girls all averted their eyes towards the floor, even Roxy’s confident demeanor had now broken and her head dropped and as her eyes also shifted to the floor. I felt intensely intimidated by Roman myself but I didn’t bow my head like the girls had and neither had the blonde beside him.copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡFi6p0Zvmo6
“Fine,” Roxy softly said before turning towards us. “I’ll be right back.” She said before she and Roman made their out of the living room and down the corridor, the blonde following behind them.copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡvFPhMNAeah
The girls all gave me questioning expressions as they looked for me to say something. “Um, what was that?” I asked lamely.copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡX8kpdfKx1n
“I don’t know, you tell us,” Blair asked seemingly breathless. “I didn’t know that you knew Roxy’s brother.”copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡHHGO6GNB2b
“I don’t,” I quickly replied. It was true, I didn’t know him. I knew that he was a weirdo though.copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡIxRyPElqSv
“Oh please,” Kenzie rolled her eyes. “He was practically eye-fucking you.”copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡIPE2fRiZpk
My face heated up. “I-I don’t know what you mean!”copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡn723V8KIKM
“He’s definitely into you,” Ashley said playing with her finger nails. “But you know, he’s got quite the reputation for being a man-whore.”copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡUsjM19qmzi
“So I’ve heard,” I sighed.copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡSh8xknpDnO
“You would know, wouldn’t you Ash,” Kenzie quipped.copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡXLVZPR8zAS
I watched Ashley’s face twist in annoyance as she whipped around to glare at her cousin. “Shut up Kenzie!”copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡlulFhmOHJo
Judging by Kenzie’s remark and Ashley’s reaction, I’m assuming that she and Roman have some sort of history; a romantic history at that. I think it’s best for that topic to be dropped.copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0CF89ZwyCT
“I met him about two weeks by accident,” I told the girls. “I came here because Roxy and I had accidentally taken home each other’s ballet shoes. But then, he suddenly attacked me out of nowhere and seems to be infatuated with me ever since.”copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡnAEjAuaI3K
“What do mean infatuated?” Blair asked with a raised eyebrow.copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡBpfX5wjUe3
But before I could say anything else, Roxy’s sudden appearance at the entrance of the living room made me stop before I could even start; the girls all whipped around to see what I was staring at as well. But I felt anxiety creep up on me as I looked at my friend. Roxy’s expression greatly bothered me. Her eyes bore into mine with an emotion I’ve never seen her look at me with before. She looked suspicious of me. Her eyes were wary, although I could tell that she was trying hard not to show it from her body language. Why was she looking at me like that? What had Roman told her?copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡieFXnOXTnA
“Blair, Ash, Kenz, can you guys come with me for a sec?” She asked. Confused, they all stood up to stand by her, while I remained frozen in my spot. “Fee, can you just wait here one sec?”copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡMLbr4LVfuZ
I gulped. At least she’s still calling me by my nickname. “Yeah sure, um, is everything alright Roxy?”copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡ06og3tMnn1
She attempted to smile but it didn’t reach her eyes. “Yeah, yeah everything’s fine! Just uh, something came up. It’s not important but I need to discuss it with the girls, we’ll be back in no time.”copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡrGf6DDVBwj
Everything was not fine. Something was up. “Okay.”copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡcj4nK99GoE
She gave me one last fleeting look before walking off with the girls the way she came. I softly sat down on the couch as I looked at the spot where she just was. Did I do something wrong? Why did Roxy look at me like that? Does she hate me now?copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡFpK3FOxscV
My anxiety spiked as my mind filled with negative thoughts. This sleepover was going so well and you just had to go and ruin it, huh Africa?copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡtDBJJfmFQS
I guess that’s just my specialty; fucking everything up.copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡY2c3qXczDB

Roman’s POVcopyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡA0zN30Kgzn
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡRNGRL3xyYG
“I hear what you’re saying Roman, but you know that’s impossible,” Jenna said we walked up the steps towards my parents’ house. “It’s simply not possible for a wolf to be mates with a human.”copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡxNi9eEwVmy
“Don’t you think I know that Jen!” I said annoyed with the entire situation. “But I’m telling you that she is my mate! There is no other way to describe this feeling when I see her.”copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡsXy1KC2uSB
“Then she’s a wolf, she has to be.”copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡSJozBaD9IB
“I’m telling you, she’s 100% human!” I exasperated. “Her scent is a human one and she didn’t react at all to our mating! In fact, she looked absolutely terrified!”copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡPfp8pEMVz8
Jenna sighed as she ran a hand through her blonde hair and shrugged at me. “I don’t know what to say, Ro. You said that you’re positive that she’s your mate, but she’s a human.”copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡt1523PF5jx
“That’s why I’m going to ask my father if he’s ever heard of anything like this,” I said unlocking the door to my parent’s home and stepping inside the dimly lit hallway. “As the previous Alpha, he’s bound to have knowledge of things that most pack members do not.”copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡHch6LTgo2Y
Three years ago, my father had stepped down from his position and I took his place as the new alpha of the Hazy Blood Moon Pack. For the most part, I had ruled in a similar way as my father had, stern and fair. However, unlike him, I had absolutely no remorse for rogue werewolves. Any who dare to cross onto my land will be slaughtered on site. I knew better than to trust a rogue, one of my closest friends is dead because of them. But with the new development of me finding my mate, who could very well be some form of a rogue werewolf, I’m not too sure about that “kill-on-site” law anymore.copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡZSeo0E2MzC
“He probably might know something,” Jen said as she followed behind me. “If not, your grandfather is still alive, and he’ll definitely know something about it.”copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡU3DZ6GOLL8
Another thing that I’d done differently from any of the other alphas before myself was to appoint a female as my Beta. Jenna was my best friend since we were toddlers. She had my back since the beginning and I knew that I could trust her to have it till the very end. When I became Alpha, I couldn’t see anyone else standing as my right-hand wolf other than her. Of course, there were protests in the beginning, but after seeing Jen in action, no one had anything else to say. She was absolutely ruthless when fighting; going straight in for the kill. Anyone who ever underestimated her is either dead or has some sort of physical or mental reminder as to why you shouldn’t ever.copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡjtkAz6tPuw
“Is that…Beyoncé I hear?” Jen said as we walked towards the living room.copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡOto3SoHVah
“It’s probably just Roxy,” I rolled my eyes as I thought of my annoying little sister. Every time I saw my mate, she was with Roxy and every time Roxy would try to separate us. On one hand, I could understand her behavior. She knew of my womanizing reputation with females and was just trying to protect her friend from what she suspected was me being a man whore. But on the other side, I hadn’t even had the urge to flirt with another female besides my mate ever since I met her. I’ve barely seen her in the two weeks we’d met and my wolf got annoyed when Roxy tried to separate us. Although, I hadn’t told Roxy that her friend was my mate; I don’t even know how she’d take the news.copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡx5kb4qRTbD
But as we were about to step into the living, the sudden scent of coconut and honey hit my nostrils that made every muscle in my body tense, a scent that I knew all too well. I felt my heart rate began to pick up and my lower male anatomy became excited at the intoxicating aroma of my mate.copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2u6n5FtzvX
“What’s wrong?” Jenna asked in concern as she noticed my demeanor change.copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6jrumkT4g4
“She’s here,” I growled out as I felt my canines extend. Her scent alone was driving me crazy and I hadn’t even seen her yet. “My mate is here.”copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡlO9GZd6R7i
As soon as I said that we both looked up to see a caramel figure dancing sensually to tribal sounding music. My mate. She was skimpily clad in a small tank top and a tight pair of shorts that barely covered her large, bubble-shaped ass. I felt my lower region tighten as my eyes drunk in the jiggle of her thick thighs, wide hips, and generous butt. Her body was perfect to bear all of my pups. Her long black curls were wild as they bounced along with her movements and her breasts looked like they were straining against the fabric of her top. My Lord. To top it all off, her smooth honey brown skin was glistening under the light and her large lips were pulled into a smile that made my heart clench at how lovely it was. She was incredibly beautiful! I don’t know if it’s the mate bond but never in my life have I ever seen someone as gorgeous as she was. Africa, my Africa.copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡu9NBxTh0sM
Sadly, I pulled from my thoughts by my annoying sister who finally noticed my presence and glared harshly at me as she stalked over to me. “Roman, what are you doing here?”copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡYy6q3tKWx1
“What, can’t I visit my own parents’ home?” I sarcastically responded. “Or is that also a problem for you?”copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0SP9yPnFGu
“You have to stop this Roman,” She sternly said. “I know that you’re only here because you somehow found out that Africa was here. I don’t know what kind of sick infatuation it is that you have with her but it needs to stop! I told you already that she isn’t like those girls that you like to mess around with so just leave her alone ok! You creep her out enough already, so just leave before she notices you!”copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡYbELMbE3c7
If it was anyone else talking to me like that, they would’ve been six feet under, but because this was my little sister, I held back. To tell you the truth, no normal wolf would even have the balls to speak to an Alpha like that; but Roxy has Alpha blood which makes her braver and stronger than most wolves.copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡQaGWAJplGX
“Watch it!” I growled back at her. “You don’t tell me what to do, and I may be your brother but I’m still your Alpha and you will respect me!”copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡnHPcQo1e4I
“I DON’T CARE! YOU HAVE TO STOP DOING THIS!” She dramatically screeched at me, completely gathering the attention of everyone in the room, including my beautiful mate whose face morphed from confusion to horror as her eyes locked onto my form.copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ2ToNFzsJM
Her stunning blue/violet eyes were wide and her jaw was practically on the floor as she stared at me. I felt a low growl rumble in my chest as I watched her struggle to pull down her shirt and shorts. She shouldn’t ever try to cover up her body from me!copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡAAWgxx0WTG
“This is her?” Jenna’s voice resounded in my ears as I watched her rake her eyes up and down Africa’s form.copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡUgnKse8usc
“She’s got the build of a female wolf, strong looking legs, and midriff,” Jen mind linked me.copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡccf5A3Lavv
“But she isn’t a wolf,” I mind linked back to her and my eyes continued to bore into hers.copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡW66SmDqmAj
The loud music had now stopped and quickly grasped the opportunity now that I knew she could properly hear me speak. “Africa,” I said her name slowly. Her name was just as stunning as she was.copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3uzqe2Fmw8
I watched her fidget and gulp under my intense gaze before responding. “Ro-Roman,”.copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡzJkPPUSB4o
Her voice was soft, but I heard her loud and clear. Hearing her say my name was like hearing I’d won the lottery. My body yearned to touch her, to feel her soft skin once more under my palm. It felt painful to be this close to her and not being able to touch her. I made a motion to walk towards her, but my previously blissful mood turned sour when I felt my sister’s hand wrap tightly around my wrist as she growled at me. “Get out of here, Roman!”copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡ60ucTRQjdq
Roxy’s gray eyes darkened, her canines became visible and her growling intensified; I knew Africa had heard it because her eyes widened in shock as she looked at her friend in confusion. Hmm, another sign that she’s just a human, growling wouldn’t have startled her if she was a wolf.copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡChUcI8envL
“Roxy?” Her soft voice called. “Are you alright?”copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡv5vQUkKNVP
Roxy took a deep breath as she shook her head and her eyes and canines returned to normal. “I’m fine Fee.”copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡb2PGfJx52K

I found the nickname to be utterly adorable, but I still preferred to call her by her full name, Africa. I just loved to say it and would never give up the opportunity to do so. Once again I found myself falling into a daydream about my mate until Roxy invaded my mind with her mind link.copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡSD9nt3IeRE
“If you don’t get out of here, I’m going to get Mom and Dad.” She threatened.copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡ32GTIVCf1F
I tore my gaze away from Africa to look down at Roxy with a glare. I’m tired of her getting in my way, she needs to know.copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0wk2WcNvjU
“Roxy, come with me,” I said sternly to her.copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡzcyIz1MifD
But of course, she just had to make things difficult for me. “I’m not going anywhere with you! You’re the one that needs to leave!” She scoffed.copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡWjFCcoyPEA
“I SAID TO COME WITH ME,” I shouted at her with my Alpha command, knowing that she has no choice but to obey. “NOW!”copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡuF7PH32vzl
I watched as she involuntarily bowed her head to me and submission, as well as her other werewolf friends on the couch. But I was stunned to see that my mate hadn’t bowed her head. Even though she was a human, they could still feel the power of an Alpha command to a certain degree. Yes, she looked startled and she had flinched, but she didn’t bow her head in submission to the command. Interesting.copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡp8xYQ7ZDpf
“Fine,” Roxy softly growled out before turning towards her friends. “I’ll be right back.”copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡgmyWYKlxzZ
Giving Africa one last look, I turned around to make my way towards my father’s study with Roxy reluctantly trailing behind me. I knew that she was steaming mad.copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡ84EfTmjVRS
“You come as well Jen,” I mind linked my beta and she obediently turned to follow us.copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡhh0PfRXfun
I’ll put Roxy’s mind to ease once and for all.copyright protection177ＰＥＮＡＮＡuLJ3HIO3fo
