《Beauty and the Beast》Chapter 16

I smiled to see Alina and Daniel in the corner near tables filled with all sorts of food, they were the only ones eating.
Everyone else was still unsure and tense as they watched us walk through the room, everyone in small groups as they whispered to the few people they were familiar with.
Alina squealed at the sight of us, her voice breaking the silence as she ushered me forward.
I chuckled as she kissed my cheek in excitement.
"This is so awesome, we look hot, and we both have the hottest dates. Mama like." She said with a grin.
I looked down at a cookie in her hand.
"How many have you had?" I asked with a grin.
"Stopped counting when she got to seven." Daniel answered for her as she grinned at me.
I chuckled as she kissed Daniel's cheek.
I felt someone tap me and I turned to see Pierre, his mate Giselle on his arm, her flawless skin one to envy.
Kieran shook both their hands whereas I hugged them both and thanked them.
I parted way from Kieran momentarily as he spoke with James and I walked over to the bar, getting a glass of champagne.
I turned around to see a couple approaching me, both looking nervous as they stopped in front of me.
"You must be Luna Charlotte." The woman said to me.
I smiled, trying to make her feel more relaxed as I nodded my head.
"I'm Alpha Solomon, this is my mate Luna Katrina." The man spoke.
"Thank you for coming." I said with a smile.
I watched as Katrina grinned, her brown eyes lighting up, and I watched as her eyes suddenly grew wide as she looked behind me.
I chuckled as Kieran's familiar scent hit me and his hand soon found and rested on my hip as he kissed my temple.

"Kieran this is Alpha Solomon and Luna Katrina." I said.
Kieran's chiseled features broke and he flashed them a smile, hand extended.
Solomon slowly shook it, but I didn't fail to notice how he positioned himself in front of Katrina as if Kieran would spring himself upon them both.
"He is not going to hurt you." I said quietly.
I couldn't help but chuckled as Katrina growled at her mate, shoving him out the way slightly as she shook Kieran's hand.
Kieran grinned at the couple and thanked them for coming and invited them to sit with us.
I smiled as Kieran walked me to a table. He had just sat when a loud growl sounded and I watched as two men started to scuffle in the corner of the room.
"Go." I said grinning before Kieran could even speak.
He smirked, kissing my lips firmly before he left.
"He's nicer than I thought he would be." Solomon said.
"To me, yes. But do not take him for a fool he does not stand for disrespect." I said.
"As no one should." Solomon said.
I could feel the champagne setting in and I was in great need of relieving myself.
I motioned Alina over and she came and sat with them.
"Please, excuse me for a moment." I said with a smile.
I was in the restroom washing my hands when a woman walked up beside me as she looked at herself in the mirror.
I gave her a smile and she scoffed.
"You Lupin's sicken me." She growled as she fixed her auburn curls.
"You were not forced to come." I said looking into her dark brown eyes.
"I had no choice. My brother is Alpha and wanted to see Alpha Lupin for himself, he wanted to see what everyone is afraid of. And honestly I don't see much to fear." She said, her nose touching mine as she drew closer.

"Your ignorance shall prove itself in due time, I'm sure of it." I said with a grin.
I walked out strongly, stopping only when I felt a harsh grip on my arm, nearly yanking my shoulder from its socket.
I looked up to see familiar eyes and auburn hair and I knew it was the woman's brother.
I growled at him warning my, yanking my arm from his grasp.
He growled and gripped my arms roughly as he growled in my face trying to intimidate me as he lifted me off the ground.
I stood my ground, watching as a huge body suddenly planted itself behind the man, hazel eyes burning with anger as the tall mass of muscle looked down at the man.
"Put her down." Kieran growled.
The man grinned, dropping me on my feet.
Before Kieran could move I had my clawed hand swiped across the mans face, scratching hard enough to leave a scar.
The man growled in pain as he clutched his face, drawing his hand away to see blood stained on his fingers.
"Do not put your hands on me. Next time I'll aim for the throat." I growled moving next to Kieran.
I watched as the woman ran forward, attempting to grab at me.
I watched as Alina intercepted her and shoved her back onto the ground.
She growled once more before turning and retreating with her injured brother.
Kieran turned towards me, eyes trained on my arms.
"I'm okay." I said, but I quickly saw that he wasn't, his body shaking with anger.
I could see Kieran's eyes switching between the dark orbs of his wolf and his hazel ones that I loved. I could see him struggling against his wolf who wanted to shift and finish off the man who hurt his mate.
Without thinking I pulled him against me, kissing him firmly. I wrapped my arms around his neck as I kissed him slowly. I deepened the kiss, feeling Kieran's arms wrap around my body as he held me against him as we kissed.
I pulled away slowly, pecking his lips once more before opening my eyes.
"I love you Charlotte." He said aloud.
"I know." I said with a smile.
