“Is it necessary… I mean we can have a small function…”
Eira suggested as they drove towards the city.
“Not possible, baby… You are my luna and the function will be royal. Everyone should know that you are mine…”
Xavion said winking at her.
“You don’t have to worry about it… I know you are weak in socializing and trust me I love the way you are. You don’t have to talk to people if you don’t want…”
He assured and she nodded in agreement.
‘Let me out… Eira. Help me…’
Eira quickly closed her eyes as she again heard the familiar whisper.
Xavion looked at her, she was looking like she is in pain. He quickly stopped the car at the side of the road.
‘let me out…’
This time the whisper came out as a growl and Eira clutched on her head tightly as it started hurting.
“Eira?… Look at me…”
Xavion gently grabbed her arm but she was in her own trance.
“Eira, baby look at me… What’s happening…”
He tucked on her arms and she looked at him as the whispers stopped bothering her.
Eira released a shaky breath while fixing her hair and dress.
“Nothing… It’s just whispers…”
Xavion frowned.
“I heard it but it wasn’t supposed to hurt…”
He checked something on his mobile and then realised why is it happening.
“Today is full moon night… May be that’s why”
He informed.
“Your wolf has become more aggressive since we have met…”
“Is it bad…”
She asked worriedly and he shook his head, pulling her in a comforting hug. Eira clutched on him tightly inhaling his scent.
“It will be okay… Don’t worry…”
He rubbed her back gently.
“Are you okay now…”
He asked kissing her head. She pulled away from the hug and nodded assuring him.
“Let’s go… I want to buy a prettiest dress for you…”
He tried to cheer her up.
Xavion parked the car and they head towards the shop. He held her hand possessively as he felt men staring at her while Eira was totally unaware of the looks she was getting. She was looking beautiful in pestal Maxie gown. Her platinum hair was tied in a French braid.
They entered the shop and the manager quickly greeted xavion.
“Welcome mr. Anderson… How may I help you…”
Xavion shook his hand.
“I want the best gown for my fiance…”
“Ofcourse… Congratulations to the lovely couple…”
The manager lead them towards their exclusive collection. Xavion was a well known businessman too and was Highly respected in the city.
Eira looked around to the dresses with raised eyebrows. All were beautiful and Royal. She never really paid interest to this kind of things and she wasn’t allowed to do that either.
The salesgirl gave her the dress to try and Eira noticed how she was gawking at the Xavion which Eira didn’t liked a bit.
Giving her glare she walked towards the changing room.
When Eira came back wearing the dress, she saw the girl trying to flirt with Xavion while he was busy in his mobile. He wasn’t even looking at the girl.
“Would like to have some juice, mr. Anderson…”
The girl bend down giving a clear view of her cleavage to him, her tight skirt and thin shirt wasn’t hiding much.
Xavion was about to deny but The girl flinched in her place as she heard the growl from behind. Xavion himself looked up from the phone towards the Eira in surprise, she was glaring at the girl with furious gaze.
Her pupils were turning black and she was clutching on her dress tightly.
He quickly got up and held her hand gently as he realised why she is growling. Her wolf was already troubling her and on top of that it saw another girl flirting with him. A wolf can never tolerate this.
“She has a cold…”
Xavion said as he saw people looking at them weirdly, after his lie everyone went back to work.
“Are you okay, love…”
He asked concerned.
Eira shook her head.
“I don’t know… I am feeling restless… And I don’t like the way she was looking at you, it never happened before. I don’t know what’s happening…”
“We can come later if you want… I don’t want to stress you more…”
He suggested, he genuinely concerned for her as it was full moon night and her wolf was trying to come out.
She gave him a small smile.
“No, it’s okay… I am fine…”
After trying few more dresses they choose the perfect dress for the ceremony. Eira insisted to pay by herself but xavion clearly denied it and paid for her dress.
Walking out xavion placed the bags in the back seat.
“Eira… I’ll be back, I forgot my phone inside…”
He said and she nodded.
Xavion went inside while Eira was standing outside, waiting for him. Her lips were set into small smile as she was thinking about xavion. He was so loving and treating her good. He was the first person in her life who was giving her so much unconditional love.
Eira was lost in her thoughts but at the same time she was aware of her surroundings too, it was habit and years of training.
She felt presence behind her and quickly turned around.
There was a man in a black hoodie, he had grey eyes almost looking like silver. pale skin like an ice and lips red like blood. He was tall and young, younger than Xavion. His facial features were sharp and body posture were stiff as he looked at Eira with his scrutinizing gaze.
Eira looked at him alert.
“Excuse me?…”
“Don’t mind me… I am here to look for the thing I have lost…”
He said. Eira got shivers at his voice. It was strong and raspy and hint of mischievousness in it.
“Okay… May I help you…”
She asked politely.
“No, I have lost it a long time ago… But don’t worry I know how to get it back…”
He replied smiling at her.
Eira frowned at his weird reply but wasn’t able to concentrate on him as she started feeling more restless than before. His presence were affecting her wolf.
“Fine…”
She replied in dismissing tone.
“I am Lorenzo… And you?…”
He held his hand for a handshake while looking at her with scrutinizing gaze. Like he is judging her.
“Eira…”
She replied and was about to shake her hand but at the same time she heard Xavion calling her.
She turned towards him and saw him running towards her.
“What happened xavion…”
She asked As he reached to her.
“What were you doing?…”
He asked looking at her madly making her frown at him for sudden change of behaviour.
“Nothing… This mister lost something so he was___”
She turned to look at Lorenzo but he was nowhere to be seen.
“He was here a second ago… Where did he go…”
She said confused, it was impossible for a human to walk away so quickly.
Xavion grabbed her arm making her look at him.
“Eira he was a vampire… Our enemy.. he was here to hurt you…”
He informed and she frowned.
“You have no idea what would have happened if I wouldn’t have came back on the time…”
Eira looked at him flabbergasted. She read that Wolf’s can recognise the vampires but she couldn’t, she was feeling restless but nothing more. May be because she haven’t shifted yet.
“I had no idea…”
Xavion sighed rubbing his head.
“I know, love… But you should be careful. He can hurt you and you are not capable to fight with them yet… He is stronger than you…”
“But why would he target me…”
She asked confused.
“He doesn’t need any reason… They are cold blooded and we are warm. We are enemies for centuries now…”
Xavion said as he pulled her closer in a hug.
“I love you Eira… And I don’t want him to hurt you.”
He kissed her cheek and she hugged him back.
“Promise me you will never go near him and his kind… You will immediately inform me if something like this happens…”
“I promise… I won’t mess with them…”
She promised snuggling in his chest, he never fails to make her feel safe in his embrace.
Xavion looked up and saw Lorenzo on other side of the street. He was looking at xavion Angrily and hatefully with his red glowing eyes, while xavion Smirked at him as he possessively kissed on Eira’s shoulder mocking Lorenzo more.
Lorenzo Angrily punched the wall beside him making it crack.
“I’ll take her away from you… Just wait… Fucking dog…”
