Amelia tapped the side of her chin, her eyes fixated on the mirror as she stared at her reflection.
“This is good news!!” She said, faking a smile and staring into the mirror.
“Isn’t it?” She asked.
Apparently, she had sensed from the moment he walked into the ballroom. But had been skeptical about approaching him.
“What if he were to reject me?” She asked herself over and over again.
Amelia cleared her throat as it was suddenly starting to get hot where she was.
After a couple of minutes, she stood up straight and finally took one last glance at herself in the mirror.
She exhaled, holding on to the doorknob as she pulled it open, letting herself out into the hallway leading to the ballroom.
The music from the ballroom echoed through the hallway, as she made her way out joining the others.
She smiled at the guests on her way out, as she had for herself a shot of tequila from the waiter that walked past her.
And in that moment, she had her eyes closed as she gulped the shot down her throat.
Amelia, after a couple of minutes scanned the room in seach of Xavier.
But surprisingly, he wasn’t anywhere around the area she had seen him before.
She walked over to where m his friends stood, laughing and giggling to themselves but didn’t say a word to any.
Instead Amelia already knew exactly where he was.
All she could think, was how scared she was if he was gonna reject her.
She held on to her silver-lining flowing dress, as she had her shoes removed climbing up the stairs to his room.
As soon as Amelia got into the hallway leading to his room, she felt skeptical about pushing through with her decision of letting him know what she had sensed.
And was hoping he would say the same, that way the mating bond gets to be real.
Or so she thought…
On getting to his door, she could hear slight music coming from his room and then confirmed that he was indeed in his room while the ball was going on.
She inhaled, holding on to his door knob and then summoned up the courage as she had the door pulled open gently.
Xavier had his head raised the minute he heard someone come into his room, and then had the music lowered a bit as he wondered who it was.
Amelia couldn’t hold back the scent she was getting from her newly fated mate.
She had her eyes closed, letting it all get in her head.
Amelia could feel his power, from just staring at him.
She could feel everything about him.
At this moment, she realized it was real when she could still perceive his delicious smell as she stood there for a couple of more minutes perceiving his scent.
Xavier feeling so uncomfortable and disgusted from the way she stood by the door, without her saying a single word to him.
And so got up on his feet, walking into the bathroom.
“Are you just going to stand there?” He said aggressively walking away.
“Or you haven’t got anything important to say” He added.
“If that’s the case, I suggest you leave!!” He said walking into the bathroom.
She fidgeted with her sleeves, knowing fully well how grumpy and annoying he could be.
But still, Amelia felt so happy knowing they were mates.
“Why aren’t you down at the ball?” She asked playing with the sleeves of her dress.
“Is that any business of yours?” He asked, as she heard him flush down the toilet.
And then, she heard the water in the bathroom room.
After contemplation, she finally moved a little bit away from the door leaning on the wall with her arm wrapped around her chest.
A couple of minutes afterwards, he walked out of the bathroom with a towel wrapped around his waist exposing his muscular chest.
Amelia bit her lips, watching how the drops of water from his hair ran down his neck and down to his chest.
She couldn’t hold back the urge to want to have a taste of him.
Her inner wolf couldn't help but yell and howl, as she had imagined him holding her to himself by the bed.
Making her feel all she could perceive.
But then again her thoughts, were soon caught off by his harsh words.
“If you haven’t got anything to say, please leave!!!” He said aggressively pointing to the door.
“I…” she stuttered moving closer.
“I do” Amelia finally responded.
“Then…say it!!” He yelled.
“You are getting on my…” He added as she finally cut him off.
“I’m hoping I’m not the only one feeling this way towards the mating bond” she said as she had her head lowered to the ground.
“We…” she stuttered fidgeting with her hair.
“We are mates!!” She finally voiced out looking up at him as she voiced out her thoughts.
“I…”
“I got that from the moment you walked into the ballroom” she added.
Xavier couldn’t hold back the disgust he got from her saying out those words to him.
“Stop!!!”
“Just stop!!” He yelled.
She could tell from his facial expression, how cold and unbothered he was.
“And what am I supposed to do with such information?” He said looking away.
Amelia couldn’t hold back the pain she felt from hearing him ask.
“Yes!!” He shot at her as he walked up to her by the wall.
She could feel her wolf excited, the minute he walked up to her.
He had her pressed against the wall, holding up her against the wall and then had his head tilted to the side of her neck.
It’s happening!!!… she yelled to herself in her head.
“Read my lips closely,” he said pointing to his lips and calling out her attention.
“I can never be mates with a weak wolf like yourself!!” he whispered into her ears.
“You are weak!!!” He added.
What!!?…
