Chapter 25: Chapter 25
We were in the limo as I watched Elsa out of the corner of my eye. She seemed really concerned and that challenged me. Did it have to do with what happened earlier? Or was there another point that was troubling her? My closeness with Jessy? Or just Jessy.
It must be said that the man was very daring in front of her and those who like to intimidate others generally do not like to be challenged.
It reminds me of Chad and his gang, when they took on a geek and the latter faced them, of course it drove them crazy.
This superiority complex.
Elsa meanwhile had something other than what Sophia could imagine. She thought about Greg and Sophia finally seeing each other today, she knew what was going on behind the scenes in and out of the pack and hoped that until Sophia was officially introduced as her nephew's mate, the latter wouldn't get carried away by his feelings and jump on his Luna.
She sighed, this evening was important for Sophia for which she had no choice, she had to take the girl in so that she becomes familiar with this environment.
She will soon evolve among these people, both humans and creatures, will face the turmoil of their world and so she had to know how to manage so as not to make mistakes later.
Especially that she knows how to differentiate humans from other creatures so as not to make mistakes, especially lycans. They were the ones she absolutely had to pick out in the crowds.
With the agreement of non-aggression between the different races - the alves being the exception - only the lycans deserve his attention because the others would not make the mistake of attacking her, even the chiropterans which are, as one might say, the natural enemies of lycans.
She looked at the young girl and sighed, that almost vengeful hateful gaze, what could this cursed kid have breathed into the mind of their future Luna? Does he know of anything? Does he have the same intention as his parents and the other people behind her sister's death?
No it can't be possible, for that it would be necessary that the Alpha of Shield of Rain has a descendant who could continue his dark projects.
She understands that his daughter, Samantha the rebel, disappeared years ago with a man and that her execution order jointly signed by her own father and their former Alpha had been carried out years ago.
In short, it didn't matter to her, this man, the Alpha of the Shield of Rain had never made a good impression on her, but from there to propose his daughter as the fiancée of their former Alpha a few days after the death of Luna, she had known that something was wrong.
And she was right, he was behind it all and wanted to put his daughter in charge.
But Sam the rebel was in love with another and ran away with the man, when he found out what she had done, he agreed to have his own daughter killed under cover of the Soul Moons.
But she does not forgive her brother-in-law because he allowed all this to happen by mistreating her sister when he had a crush on Sam even though she was still a child.
Fortunately he recovered very quickly and annihilated these conspirators.
But now Jessy is still trying to hurt their pack and his Alpha through Sophia, he knows how powerful she is now and the fact that she's so close to Sophia must have made him suspicious.
She needs to react as soon as possible. She wonders what Greg has in mind, from the way he spoke earlier, it's obvious he's already found a solution to the problem that's been on her mind.
The limo parked in front of a huge mansion whose lights twinkled like a fairy tale castle.
It was so dazzling as I could see a red carpet being laid out, many reporters and photographers, and guests who were so prestigious. I recognized many famous actors and entertainers around the world treading on that red carpet and watched a surprised Elsa.
" The host of this evening is very influential in the country and around the world, so it is normal that, when he organizes such an evening, people do their best to attend. Everyone is trying to curry favor with each other."
I gulped, that must be a heck of a big chunk, not to mention it must be so powerful that even the prime minister of the country made the trip.
"Oh, the president of country F has arrived. His escort is impressive."
" But... Who is this man if even a president travels to attend a simple gala?."
Elsa smiled at me before shrugging.
"The CEO of the Travis entertainment group, the richest man in the world."
I nearly choked before I felt all my strength leave me. The richest man in the world ? And what's a vulgar girl from a small country town like me doing among such prestigious guests? But more importantly, is Elsa so important to attend this kind of event?
"And you, who are you ?"
" Oh me? I'm the president of one of the companies under the Travis entertainment group."
" What? So... Does Soul Moon have relations with this powerful man?"
Elsa giggled before stroking my cheek.
" How cute you are... So you know I'm a Soul Moon... Jessy told you about a lot of things it seems."
I looked down caught in the act before I felt Elsa move to get out of the limo.
" Indeed we have a very close relationship with this man."
She spoke cryptically before extending her hand to me to get out of the car.
When I came out, I was struck by the flashes of cameras, the sounds of the crowd and the people coming towards us.
" Madame Elsa, you are lovely... Who is this girl by your side?"
" Miss what is your relationship with Mrs. Elsa?"
All these questions and attention, I felt like one of those celebrities I saw on TV.
My mind clouded over so much commotion around me as I felt myself losing my temper.
I felt my head spin before I felt Elsa's hand grab me and whisper in my ear.
" Calm down, it's an excellent exercise so that you don't change in the face of the hustle and bustle around you. This will help you control your urges and pheromones. Take a deep breath, you'll be fine."
I nodded before doing as she said. Then I felt calmer, deciding to disregard the noises around me to concentrate only on a smell, his smell.
We walked down the red carpet before I heard people raving. Elsa stopped and she smiled
"Ah, the CEO of the Travis entertainment group has arrived, it seems."
When I turned, I thought my heart stopped before panicking. In front of me advancing as if in slow motion, this man who had made me drunk with love walked, attracting admiration, sighs and amazement..
There was my love of the beach from two years ago.
