Chapter 3 Chapter 3
“What the heck are you doing here?”
Kyla’s gaze followed the lady as she walked to her front. Her beauty was piercing, Kyla bliked as she stared at the lady in awe, she had never seen someone so pretty before.
“I… I am… I thought…” Kyla stuttered as she tried to talk, but the kind of look she was getting from the lady in front of her had gotten her tongue tied.
“Oh goddess,” she groaned and looked around. “Where the fuck are the security at… how could they allow a rag like this to enter this ceremony?”
Kyla balled her fist as she looked down at herself. As she saw her dull skin and ragged clothes, she knew she was a rag compared to this lady who had flawless skin and nice clothes. She was dressed like a queen in her one handed, flowing sequin dress, her blonde hair sparkling under the full moon light.
The aura she carried made her command so much respect and Kyla could barely know how to behave around her. Kyla was still trying to get her voice back when she winced out in pain as the pretty girl grabbed her arm.
“Get out of here, you are not welcome,” she was dragging Kyla away, and Kyla turned to her and was a little bit shocked at how a girl with such a small body could wield so much strength.
“Daciana!!”
She froze and pushed Kyla to the ground as she turned and faced the direction the voice came from. “Kendrick… my love, I was just trying to get rid of the trash.”
Daciana had a sweet smile on her face, but Kendrick wasn’t having it, his intense gaze shifted from her to the girl she had pushed to the floor.
“Baby,” Daciana said as she walked up to him, he pushed her to the side as he walked up to Kyla on the floor.
Kyla was too busy blowing at her wounded elbow to notice Kendrick was standing over her. “Ouch… this hurts.”
“Are you wounded?” Kendrick asked with his brows furrowed as he stared down at her in concern.
“Yes…” Kyla said softly as she looked up at him with large puppy eyes. The moment her eyes caught him, his jaws hardened as his grey eyes flashed gold, before returning to normal in an instant.
Kyla’s jaw dropped as she saw him. She blinked at him. He carried an even more commanding presence than Daciana.
Kendrick stood tall in his blue coloured suit, his shoulder length, dark hair flowing in the night breeze. His hairy chest pecking out of the loose top buttons of his shirt. He dropped down to a squatting position and grabbed her arm as he pulled her closer to him. Their eyes locked as he growled, “Mate.”
His deep toned voice sent a shiver down Kyla’s spine and she closed her eyes and bit her bottom lip. Her thoughts were running wild, and her brows furrowed, “How can a man be so beautiful? Was he sculpted by the gods?” she thought.
Kendrick’s gaze fell to her lips and he stared at them and swallowed. He got up as he helped her to her feet. Daciana had stormed over to his side and she placed her arm around his elbow.
“Leave her, Ken… let us go back to the mating ceremony.”
Kendrick turned to her and rage built up in his eyes. “Leave her?” he growled and he pushed Daciana’s hand off his, “Daciana… She is my mate.”
Daciana stumbled back, her face pale as she ran eyes over Kyla again, who stared at the both of them in confusion.
“Mate?” another handsome looking man, asked as he walked up to them. “She’s pretty… Hi, my name is Frakas, the Beta of the pack… Kendrick is the Alpha and Daciana is his temporary Luna.”
Kendrick kept his gaze on Kyla as he tightened his grip on her hand. Kyla looked at them confused, she didn’t understand those terms, thinking it was a job position she said, “My name is Kyla… I am a sales person.” She heard a deep-throated growl and she turned to see Daciana furious. She pulled out her hand from Kendrick's grip as she ran her hand over her brown hair.
“I think I should get going.”
Kyla looked from Kendrick, who wore a frown, to Frakas, who looked quite confused. She balled up her fist as she raced off.
“Fuck,” Kendrick growled as he raced after her.
Daciana stretched out her hand to hold him, “Ken, don’t go after her.”
Frakas held her back, “Don’t stop him, you should be glad you will be relieved of this position of temporary luna soon.”
Daciana pushed him off her. “Who said I want to be relieved… I want Kendrick for myself,” she snapped at him and raced after Kendrick.
“But, I want you, Daciana,” Frakas muttered to himself as his shoulder dropped, “But you have never looked at me even once, Danny.”
Kyla had almost gotten to the road when she felt a strong rush of wind, before she knew it, Kendrick was in front of her. Her eyes widened, she was shocked by how fast he was. Before she could stop, she collided into him.
He stood sturdy and caught her on her waist as he pressed her against him. “Where do you think you are going, Mate?” Kendrick growled.
Kyla gritted her teeth as she pressed her arms on his chest, trying to free herself from his iron grip. “I am going away from you… you are…” she gulped as she stared into his eyes.
She couldn’t understand the emotions she was seeing in his eyes as he stared at her, and she couldn’t bear to look at his eyes anymore, it made her feel hot inside her chest. She looked away and licked her small red lips, nervously.
Kendrick raised a brow. “I am what?”
“Strange… you look different and I just want…” she pushed harder at him instead of completing her words.
“I can’t let you go… Mate, you are mine.”
Kyla froze as her balled fist rested on his rock chest. “Mate? Yours? What are you saying?”
Kendrick narrowed his eyes as he stared at Kyla intensely, he took her chin and lifted her head, looking into her large hazel eyes. “My mate is human?”
