Chapter 56 unprofessional
"When am l going to see her then?", I asked my interest picking up. "As long as you don't disobey me, you will see her soon", He murmured while tying properly his bowtie. "Let's go then to the dinner", l said without any hesitation in my voice. For some reason I was believing his words. He might allow me to go and see her but I knew my mom. She might refuse me to come back to the Alpha.
"As an obedient Luna?", He asked. "Yes as one", l accepted quickly. At that he walked out of the room. I was silent through out the whole moment. The only thing that shocked me was that as soon as we reached where the dinner had been held, he out of the blue gripped my hand. I looked at him for any answers but he kept his face straight.
The place was filled up with different Alphas all impreccably dressed up and chatting happily with glasses of wine in their hands. Once Leander and l stepped inside with his hand in my own ,all eyes i'mmediately fall on us. Of course that was expected, he was among the known Alphas and the omega Luna. With their eyes all on us , l inwardly wanted to turn on my heels and run away. At some point it all looked like some kind of joke. I was just an omega and now every one was going to Know me as the Luna.
He might have noticed my nervousness because he gave my hand a squeeze and just as l was about to ask what the hell it was for , he out of the blue reached out and pulled me tight to his chest then he planted a kiss on the top of my head. I honestly didn't Know whether the current Leander was the person I met at first. He was acting real strange.
I decided to play it cool and with that he walked me to where the other pack leaders were. As they chatted l didn't talk much because l was just an omega who knew nothing about upper werewolves. Every thing was smooth at first but as we continued one of the pack leaders out of the blue asked me a question which not only caught me up off but also made Leander to shift his attention from the leaders and then turned his gaze at me.
"You just an omega, how will you protect yourself if in case your pack is attacked?", the alpha of one of the packs asked. He even had a smirk on his face. I fell at loss of words at that. "Where will l be for them to attack her?", Leander's question made shock to appear on everyone's face. "I will always be with her", He went on before pulling me more to him.
"Huh! You right she is lucky enough that you one of the feared alphas", Another man murmured. They went on with talking but I was honestly feeling out of place. Their Lunas were all upper shewolves but I was the omega. Lastly finding it unbearable, I excused myself and shyly walked to the bathroom.
While in the bathroom , l did nothing but only ran my fingers through my hair. I stared at myself lastly in the mirror not believing anything. I didn't like being called the Luna and yet I was nothing. I was weak to fight anyone. "Darn it", l cursed out loudly after splashing water on my face. I was damn tired of this shit.
After some time, I walked out of the bathroom but when my eyes landed on Leander, l felt a frown appear on my face. He was talking with an old gray haired man which I didn't want to greet. Ignoring them , l turned on my heels and walked to the waitress who had glasses of wine on the tray.
I got myself a glass of whiskey then sipped slowly as I watched the people. I had no guards around and l was free to do whatever l did want. This time I had no plans for escaping. I kept looking around until when my eyes fall on someone. "Where did l see him ... The photo", Realization hit me as l stared at the strange man.
He was the third kid, l saw on the photo in the basement. He was handsome, looked just like Leander but he looked older than him. After staring at him for a couple of minutes, l lastly turned my eyes off him then returned it to my wine. I sipped it silently while staring at everyone again in the hall. I didn't want him to notice that I was checking him out.
"You reek of Leander", Just as I was still standing, l heard someone talk behind me.
I turned but instantly felt shocked at what I saw. Behind me was the older brother of Leander but he had his nose scrunched up. The distaste was clear on his face, darkening his face in process. Before I could reply, his dark blue eyes roamed from my face down to my exposed legs and back up again. A smirk lastly formed on his thin lips.
My face twitched. I was tempted to slap him for his rather blatant and pointed gaze at my assests but I played it cool. "I see he finally got a mate, so sad you an omega", He went on but I still pretended like I wasn't around listening to him. "You can call me Brian , Leander is my little brother",He introduced his right hand coming towards me with a mischievous grin on his face. I hesisted but before I could do it, he reached out, grabbed my hand with a tight grip and shook it a couple of times.
"You a lot hotter than what all the pack members have been saying", He continued while gazing at me. I was feeling oddly uncomfortable with him. His piercing gaze was all on me and I had a bad feeling about him. With a sharp tug, l managed to get my hand out of his grip then remained professional.
