Chapter 6 Can You Dance with Me

Edward's POV

Members of the pack needed a Luna and that girl is perfect for the part, she is not only beautiful but she seems so innocent and kind.

I can't work straight as images of her lovely face come to my mind, she has big beautiful chocolate eyes that match her long soft looking wavy hair. Soft-looking lips and I hate to admit it but she is driving my Lycan crazy, fucking mate bond! The desire to take her in my arms and rip off her clothes so that I should bury my erection in her is getting stronger.

Candace barges into my office and stands in front of me, crossing her arms against her chest in anger. I close my eyes momentarily before opening them again, I was hoping she was gone but I wasn't that lucky.

"What is this rumor going around that you have a Luna now?" She screeches, and I lean my head against the chair.

"Yes, I need her for the pack,"

"What about me!"

"Well, that girl was made in a deal and will get people's respect unlike you, plus, my brother already brought her," I shrug, dismissing her with the wave of my hand.

My brother informed me that he is throwing a party to introduce the new Luna so I leave work early. Once in the house, the guests have already arrived and they are all anxious to meet their new Luna.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I'd like to introduce you to the woman you've all been desiring to see, your new Luna, Caliana Meyers,"

My mate descends the stairs and I'm stunned by her overwhelming beauty. She is wearing a gentle smile that doesn't reach her eyes and one couldn't tell she's anxious but I can, I detected she taps her fingers against her right hip in a rhythm when she's anxious, I noticed during our occasional interaction. I interacted with a few guests that came when the girl

'Caliana is her name,' My inner Lycan, Ward, reminds me

'I know that,'

'Why don't you ever mention it,' He asks and I growl, frustrated with him. He wants her but I can't risk it. We can't fall for her, she might end up betraying me like her.

'Say her name, just this once,' He urges. I open and close my mouth. Her name is as lovely as she is but I can't produce it for some reason

'Say it,'

"Cal- Caliana Meyers," I whisper and it felt so good, I had to compose myself not to scream it so I whispered it again and again

'Caliana Meyers,'

'Yes!' My Lycan roared in my head. My eyes searched for her and I saw her talking to fucking Candace, this won't go well. She was degrading her and insulting her, however, she didn't shrink or get intimidated by her, instead, Caliana watched the girls calmly, coldly in fact. Ward couldn't take it any longer, my legs were on autopilot as I marched over to the small group.

"Candace, is that any way to talk to your Luna?" The girls bowed their heads to me except my mate, she was watching me like she didn't believe my words but soon, all the affection that was in her eyes a second ago was gone and anger replaced that, she bowed her head and excused herself, leaving me dumbfounded. Did I do something wrong?

I turned to leave but Candace grabbed my arm and stood closer to me, smiling she asked

"Can you dance with me, please?" I declined but she insisted and started acting childish again.

"I won't stop asking until you accept to dance with me, Papi," She smiled seductively and I extended my eyes to her, ignoring how Jamal was glaring at me.

'She was making a scene,' I said to him via mind link.

'Don't you think it's disrespectful to dance with another person while your Luna is watching?' He barks, I gripped Candace's back as we swayed softly to the music

'And I told you this, I don't care about the Meyers girl,' I sneered. He blocked the link to me and went to my mate to dance, they only danced for a minute and when partners were switched during the dance, she vanished into thin air. I immediately let go of the woman I was dancing with to look for her but I didn't find her so I followed her intoxicating scent to the garden, I growled when I found her talking to another man.
