Chapter 58: Seo-In

"Mia, there you are, ah and this must be your sleepover friend for tonight?" Asked Jaxson in his usual friendly tone.

Seo-In was stunned to see the castle-like mansion she was going to have a sleepover at.

"Seo-In this is Jaxson, my guardian's right-hand man and secretary."

"Wow." Seo-In almost drooled at Jaxson's beautiful charming face.

Kavyaa had to slightly nudge her when Jaxson extended his arm to greet her.

He had a glint in his eyes that easily said 'I know, I'm hot.'

"I mean it's a pleasure to meet you, sir." Seo-In smiled bashfully greeting him with a good handshake.

"Likewise Miss Park, please follow me I'll show you to your room."

Kavyaa soon spotted Ethan coming down the hallway with his business colleagues including Klaus and Sasha. He strangely sniffed the air and darted his down sharply towards her, making her heart spike when he shot her a short smirk from the distance.

Kavyaa quickly grabbed Seo-In's hands dragging her away from looking quite bashful at Jaxson.

"That's ok Jaxson I'll show her!"

"Woah, Mia?!"

"Just c'mon already!"

The girls quickly escaped from Ethan's sight however they didn't escape from Sasha's.

S: Was that another lamb I just saw with Mia?!

K: Looks like it.

"Thank you, gentleman, that'll be all." Ethan closed a file after signing a deal, with the main contractor and shook his hand.

"Pleasure doing business with you Mr Verrono, this place will be a hotspot for tourists once constructed."

The contractors left and Sasha as well as Klaus looked back at Ethan.

"They can't be here Ethan!"

"Yes they can, It's my house and I'm  their host."

"No you don't understand, it's the blood moon night, our wolves can get sensitive around them."

Ethan looked towards Sasha darkly, making her heart spike in sudden fear.

"I'm not going to have a problem with you controlling your wolf around the sweet little girls that are under my protection, am I Sasha? If so please speak now, special arrangements can be made for you down the basement with the betas in training?"

Sasha nervously laughed, letting Ethan die down his hard gaze on her.

She had years of experience in taking care of her inner beast, blood lust control.

She gently pecked her lips to Ethan and pulled away giving him a lustful gaze.

"That won't be necessary, I have her in control."

She walked away from the trio, a little pissed off that his favourite little lamb was back on the most important night of her life.

Ethan was going to mark her, and so she'd picked out the perfect dress, to seduce him over dinner tonight.

"You're guardian is Ethan Verrono?! Girl, why am I finding out about this right now? Do you know he owns half the properties in town?"

The perks of being a billionaire, go figure.

"So I heard. Hey, let's just stay in our room tonight, we can watch a movie here?"

Sadly her guest room didn't have a tv.

"Where?"

"On our phones?"

Seo-In gave her a ridiculous look.

"No way, I want a tour and I want to explore this place some more, c'mon please, please, please?"

"Umm..."

A knock came on the door.

Kavyaa opened it up, to see Klaus. He also spotted a curious Seo-In in the background.

"What do you want Matrix?"

As usual Kavyaa was quite cold towards him since, he never allowed her to see his eyes.

Klaus had grown accustomed to her cold nature with him and didn't bother him.

"Hello," Seo-In said seeing Klaus for the first time.

He mildly shot her a smile and then spoke.

"Evening Miss Park, my name is not Matrix as Bambi suggested, it's Klaus."

Seo-In shot her a look of confusion at Mia, who simply rolled her eyes at her 'Bambi' name.

"Oh I see, you're named after Santa Klaus, right?" Seo-In joked and Kavyaa mildly giggled.

"Yes, I suppose I am? Anyway, Miss Park..."

"Please call me Seo-In Klaus, really there's no need to be quite formal, it's not like you're my teacher or anything." She added quickly interrupting him.

"As you wish, Seo-In. Bambi, dinner will be ready in an hour, so don't be late, Mr Verrono doesn't like to wait."

"There's a lot of things he doesn't like," Kavyaa muttered under her breath, making Klaus hide his smirk.

She coldly turned away from Klaus and sat on her chair, pulling out her homework from her bag.

Seo-In sensed the awkward tension between the two and quickly replied to Klaus.

"Oh, of course no we'll be there."

"A little reminder, Miss Park, my boss has a nasty scar on the left side of his face, please refrain from staring too much at it. My boss doesn't like it when people stare at his scare too much."

"Umm, sure?"

Seo-In watched as he shortly gave her a nod then walked away to leave.

Seo-In closed the door behind them and went over to her sudden quiet friend.

"You're guardian has a scar?"

"He got attacked by a wild wolf when he was young," Kavyaa said recalling the story Jaxson told her before she met him.

"Ouch. Wait, why did Klaus call you Bambi?" Seo-In asked puzzled by that funny nickname for her.

"Probably because he caught me out in the woods the other night. But you know what, I don't care, I have a gut feeling they're hiding something."

"Like what?"

"Ricky."

Dinner time came by.

Seo-In was in awe of this place. She was quite surprised to hear that Mia had run into Ricky.

As the two arrived downstairs, in their casual attire.

They were escorted towards the exquisite dining room by Klaus and Jaxson, who walked behind them.

J: Sasha here tonight

K: This will be fun

Seo-In and Mia spotted the host arriving to greet them, alongside his rich vogue striking girlfriend.

Kavyaa hated the fact, that he looked quite sharp and dashing in his suit.

Beside him stood Sasha, who wore a beautifully rich dark maroon elegant gown, exposing her DD assets, all whilst wearing a diamond-studded tiara, with matching earrings and necklace.

"Whose that?" Seo-In whispered for she had never seen the two before.

Kavyaa was just about to reply when Ethan beat her to it.

"Evening Miss Park. I'm Ethan Verrono, Mia's guardian."

Ethan easily heard her heartbeats spike as she saw his sharp claw-like marks upon his face.

"Temporary, guardian." Kavyaa quickly reminded earning her a short smirk from him.

He stretched out his hand for her to shake and Seo-In calmed her heartbeats at the sound of his calm and gentle tone of voice.

She took his hand and shook it promptly.

"Thanks for having me over, I must say you have a beautiful face, I mean place! Place! Oh gosh, I seriously meant place!"

She let go, feeling quite embarrassed for her stupid choice of words.

Sasha gave Seo-In one mean look and grabbed her jaw, making Seo-In stunned.

The next moment surprised Kavyas and Seo-In in unison when Sasha sniffed poor Seo-In in the face, whilst licking her teeth in a short sinister psychotic way.

Sasha tamed her inner beast quickly and looked angrily down at Seo-In.

"Excuse me, are you calling my man ugly, you little hussy?"

K: Oh, here we go!

J: Oh no.

E: Jaxson grab Kavyaa!

"Who you calling hussy, you big fat Mmm!"

Jaxson immediately clamped Mia's mouth shut before she went to strike Sasha with her balled up fist. He quickly grabbed her by the waist taking her aside to calm down.

Ethan grabbed his girlfriend's wrist and squeezed it just enough for her to let go of poor Seo-In, who seemed quite in shock.

Like WTF just happened?!

"Sasha, behave," Ethan spoke in his calm tone of voice, with a sharp warning behind his words.

"Whatever. I'm starving Ethan." She spoke in her arrogant way, making Ethan refrain his very pissed inner beast from

Sasha let go of and walked away, whilst rubbing her sore wrist. She couldn't believe she'd lost her senses with that stupid idiot lamb

"Miss Park, please excuse my overly protective and jealous girl."

"I'm truly sorry, I didn't mean no offence, sir."

Ethan put a friendly arm over her shoulder as he caught Jaxson in the corner talking to his feisty beloved mate.

"Mia, you must remain calm. That's no way to behave with Ethan's girlfriend."

Kavyaa gave Jaxson a little scoff and folded her arms angrily over her chest.

"Jaxson, she just grabbed by her jaw! She's my friend, of course, I'm going to protect her, and Sasha had no ri—"

"Ethan will take care of Sasha's behaviour. Look she's already gone and Ethan is already making sure that Seo-In is well taken care of." Jaxson said keeping his hands on her arms, squeezing them gently in a reassuring way.

Kavyaa darted her eyes from his and saw that Ethan had escorted her troubled-looking friend, like a perfect gentleman, and led her down the hall.

"Why the heck did she grab her face and smell her like that? That's just weird Jaxson?!"

"Well Sasha is weird in her own way, but hey forget about it. Let's just all try and get long for the next hour, ok?"
