Chapter 18
After supper, we walked back to the cabin. Zach had a little more bounce to his step now and was excited to meet up with the girls, I had no idea who was going, but I did want to meet a few people and enjoy a drink. All this information on my ring and necklace was a lot and maybe I just needed a night out to relax and let
After catching a quick nap, I quickly showered. I didn’t pack any dresses, so I kept on my black skinny jeans. I changed my shirt to one that was all black. It had deep V–neck that showed off my cleavage perfectly and hugged my curves. It stopped right below my belly button. My green necklace rested perfectly right above my cleavage, dragging the eye down so I should get a lot of free drinks tonight. I grabbed a pair of my black ankle booties and let my hair down and straightened it Lastly, I chose my makeup to be a little more dramatic and had a smoky eye with winged eyeliner and paired that with ruby red lips. Looking at myself in the mirror, my outfit said, “don’t fuck with me,” and I liked it. It matched my attitude and my mood tonight. I was wound too tight. I probably would punch anyone who looked at me wrong.
Zach came out of his bedroom freshly showered and changed into tight black jeans and a black button up. The sleeves were rolled to his elbow. The slim shirt hugged his broad shoulders, and he had the top two buttons unbuttoned. His hair was left loose to dry to get that unruly look, “Looking good there, Nina!“
“Well, I feel like we have the same sense of style,” I said, laughing. “It is almost 10:00, so do you want to head that way?
“Little early, but yeah let’s go. I would like to be there before they get there anyway, plus a drink would help loosen me up.”
“Right, because you need a drink to loosen up. You would have thrown Kelly over your shoulder and brought her right up here if she would have suggested that And speaking of which, you need to be careful. We don’t know anything about her, and I don’t want to piss anyone off,” I told him as I checked my wallet. I pulled our my ID and money and handed it to Zach. I liked to be hands free and didn’t want to have to worry about a purse.
“Yes, mom. I will behave myself” Zach sighed, running his hand through his hair, and rolling his eyes. “Most of the time, you are a bro chick, but very now and then I see the vagina come out
“Excuse me, the vagina
“You know what I mean. You give these moms talks, and I just want to have fun!”
“Yeah, okay,” I said, biting my tongue. I didn’t want to tell him about my feelings, otherwise he would go into overprotective mode and I just wanted to have some fun, I wouldn’t be able to go live feet without him hovering over me otherwise. “I’ll drive,”
“Heli no:
The man drives, don’t even argue,”
Rolling my eyes. I gave him the keys and we headed to the car. I played with my necklace and Zach started the car, and we drove following the directions Kelly gave us. The club was in Springville, and we wanted to take backroads and get familiar with the area. I kept my eyes open and my ears latening. Every now and then, I would catch a glimpse of eyes in the forest, and I knew they were wolves
“You do realize there are wolves out there. I can catch a glimpse of them every now and then,” I said to Zach quietly,
“Yeah, I saw them, too. Are you okay?
“Yes, why wouldn’t I be?”
“You are playing with your necklace and tapping your nails on the door. You are fidgeting, which means you are
are nervous.”
“Hmph, I do not,” I said, as I folded my as under my chest, making my necklace tum in the bulge of my cleavage.
Zach just snickered at me. We were silent until we reached the club. It might have only been Sunday, but the place was busy. Apparently, ladies‘ night was Wednesdays and Sundays. Suddenly, I felt very lively! I was ready to get in and have a drink and relax. I felt good.
Walking up to the bouncer, Zach handed him our IDs. He nodded and unhooked the rope and let us in. We were hit with loud hip–hop music and the smell of sweat, sex, and alcohol. Disco lights were going off in every direction. Making our way around people dry humping on the tables, we got to the bar. It was early, but the club was starting to pick up.
“One Jack Daniel’s and Dr. Pepper, and one Crown and Coke, Zach ordered for us. The bartender nodded and started working on our drinks. I leaned my elbow on the bar and looked around. I spotted a high–top table, and once Zach handed me my drink, I led him over there. The table was off to the side but close enough to the dance floor to see everyone.
Zach and I were both three drinks in before his phone buzzed.
“Everyone here?” I shouted at him so he could hear me.
“Yeah, I told them we are at the high–top table. They will be here shortly.”
“Oh, good! Might as well give me the keys since you will be fucking Kelly in the alley.” I teased. It earned a glare and he was about to smart–mouth something

off when he noticed Kelly.
“Over here!” Zach yelled. He halfway got up, but Kelly spotted him and made her way over.
“Hey, guys! My sister Brooke came with me. I hope that is okay?” Kelly shouted as she slipped between Zach’s legs while standing. Zach placed his hand on her hip and pulled her close. She was wearing a red halter–top leather dress that had a deep V–neck and stopped just below her ass. She had on two–inch heels, and her bair was pulled back into a ponytail.
“Of course. Where is a guy for me?!” I joked.
“Well, I was going to bring Wyatt, but he is a huge dick, and his other friends are on business, so it’s a girls night!” Kelly yelled.
“Where is Brooke?” I asked.
Kelly opened her mouth to respond when suddenly Zach tensed and stood straight up. His eyes went black, and I knew his wolf was making his appearance.
“Mate.”
“What the fuck,” Kelly said, and looked to see where Zach was looking. Her eyes got huge and she looked back at Zach, connecting the dots, and stepped away Immediately
An unknown female ran up to Zach and threw her arms around him. He put his face around her neck and took a deep breath and relaxed. “Mine,” is all I heard him
Looking over at Kelly, she had a sad but happy expression on her face. “Kelly!” I said,
“Oh yeah. Well, um, this is my sister Brooke. Zach and Nina, meet Brooke… who apparently is Zach’s mate?
“You okay?” I asked, half smirking. I mean, Kelly and Zach just met, it’s not like she had feelings for him yet,
Laughing, she said, “Oh yeah, now I am going to have to work to get some dick tonight!” That’s my type of girl, I thought.
“Hahaha. Yeah well, that makes two of us. So, since my friend is now your brother–in–law, what pack are you guys from?” Kelly slid into an and Zach and Brooke were in their own little world making out,
“We are the alpha’s daughters from the Smoky Mountain Pack”

I of figured you were from that pack. I didn’t want to cause any trouble on our vacation.”

seat next to me.
“Oh, you’re fine! We get a lot of travelers, and for the most part they are harmless, but we do keep a close eye on the town and areas. I would like to ask you some questions though.”
At this, Zach’s head snapped over to us and made eye contact with me. He was silently asking how much we could tell them. He sat back down and pulled Brooke on his lap. She was a taller girl at 578“, and skinny with very curly, dark chocolate hair. I didn’t peg her for a fighter.
“Well, I rather not say here, but the short version is my parents died in an attack, and ery ex–boyfriend was mated to my ex–best friend, so Zach joined me in a vacation of sorts to just get away,” I finished lamely, I really didn’t want to talk about it, but I couldn’t not give them something.
Both of their eyes went soft upon hearing that, and Brooke reached up and stroked Zach’s face, making him look down at her. They just met, but he had the most loving look I had seen on his face.
“No, honey. Niru and I were never a thing. We have been friends since grade school, we grew up together. No reason to be jealous,” Zach said to her while staring in
“Well, fuck. That could have been mine, sis, Okay Nina, let’s go shake our ass!” Kelly said and grabbed my hand, and we went to the dance floor. I let loose and let my hips sway. Zach brought me another drink, and grabbed Brooke and placed her in front of him, letting her grind her ass on his already hardened cock. Kelly and I expertly swayed around guys trying to dance with us, and we just started acting like a couple. I lost count of how many songs went by but I was feeling great! I was hot and sweaty, but my body was loose and rolling to each beat,
“I wasn’t planning on this, Nina. I found my mate and I am going to go back with her. You okay for the night? Zach mind–linked me since it was so loud on the dance floor.
“Yeah bre, go for it,” I said and cut the link. I did not need to hear anything they y would do.
