Cassandra opened the door and frowned at the sight of a son sleeping peacefully on the bed. "Xavier? Are you not supposed to be at a party?"

He opened his eyes as it's never been sleeping in the first place and turned his head to his mother. "If the party says eight then no one goes at eight."

​​

She made a face at that. "Punctuation once really mattered and now look at that. If one stays the time that no one comes at the time!"

"Stop nagging," he rolled over his stomach. "I'll go when I want to."

"Oi," picking up the cushion from the couch she threw it at her son's head, "don't let your kingly status get to your head."

He grumbled something under his breath and moved out of the room. Ever since that had come back his mother had once again started to nag.

He moves toward the beta family was living in. It was the next going of the palace and Augustus' parents were now beta regents.

"Hey," he wished when he saw Xavier. Augustus was coming out of the apartments and methods we are halfway across the hall. "The others would travel on their own. Are you ready to go now?"

He glanced at his watch. It was 9:00 in the evening. He was early but what else could he do?

"Let's go." He nodded.

If I hadn't had not taken off the invitation then he would have never done it. Why did you have to take the invitation? He narrowed his eyes slightly as the boy's image flashed in his head.

Why did you take it? Did she feel attracted to the boy?

He'd fucking kill him if it have that he could take Adeline away.

He opened the door when the car rolled to a stop. By the amount of sense that he could smell it was obvious that the party had already started. He could even smell the alcohol content in their veins. It was extremely high and he was thankful that Adeline accepted the invitation in front of him.

"They are not here yet." Augustus said as he glanced around the room and his nose twitched. He sniffed again. "Patricia's not here."

He frowned, "they were together?"

The beta wolf nodded. "yes. It was something about Adeline wanting to get ready together with the girls."

He rolled his eyes. What was that little human up to now? Penguin always called herself into more trouble than needed.

They found their friends and within moments their entire group was seated in the corner from where they could clearly see who was entering and exiting.

"You know the best thing about tonight?" Dylan asked as he had an easygoing smile on his face. "No matter how dressed up they get, their clothes are getting off." He winked.

Seth scoffed lovely before anyone else could laugh, "This one ain't getting anything." He pointed to Xavier and everyone around them erupted in loud laughter.

Xavier scoffed back. Fucking idiot.

He was about to reply back when his nose called the whole of a particular scent.

He raised himself up and watched the entrance carefully. Moments after she appeared.

Fuck, he could feel her mouth water.

"Holy . . ." Augustus stood up, "is that Patricia?"

He didn't reply. Xavier was busy ogling his own made to focus on someone else. Holy shit!

That was the shortest dress known to mankind and his mind could not think about anything else but that. He could see her legs and her cleavage.

Damn, she had grown hotter!

His eyes met his hers and he stared at them before she abruptly winked at him, flicked her hair back and started walking to the bar.

Who was that?

"Okay," Dylan stood up, "y'all do whatever. I am going to the bathroom to have a quickie." Without waiting for anyone to reply he had really moved and Elizabeth met him halfway with the giggle of her own.

Xavier could just stare at her going to the bar when he saw her turn around. "Where's the back?" He muttered when he saw that I didn't back was practically naked and there were only two chains, dainty chains going around zigzagging.

He blinked twice. Was that her?!

"Two shots," she told the bartender the moment she stepped to the bar. Elizabeth said that she had to use the bathrooms, so of course Adaline had to excuse her friend.

The bartender's nose twitched, "Human?"

"One human and one supernatural." Patricia informed him and he nodded before placing two shot glasses in front of them.

"Here," Patricia forwarded the one with human alcohol in front of Adaline before grabbing hers. Counting to three both of them threw back the shot.

"Ugh!" Adeline huffed, "that's too much!"

Patty shook her head. " If it did not notice that you were human you would have had something much more stronger than this."

Adeline stared around her. She could feel his eyes from behind her but did not give him the attention of the day. She was going dancing.

" Another one!" She yelled to the bartender who winced. Not what he had expected. He was a supernatural fella.

She drank it one time.

Patricia stayed at the bar where was added and made her way to the dance floor. There were many dances already but the dirty dancing began when I installed onto the floor. She was very ready to set fire.

She knew where he was watching her from which is why she turned her back into the direction. She pulled her hair in front and let her back to the talking. The dainty change was called to touch and her back tingled the touch and his stare.

Before long, someone came to her. Snaking his hand across her waist, the man smiled at her and she gave a confident one back.

"Hi," she introduced herself to the guy, "I'm ad—'

"My mate." She heard from behind before she was pulled back.
