asked
smiling.
He nodded. “Before I couldn’t even
touch the stuff. After seeing what you could do I decided to give
it a shot, and it worked. I was going to attempt a tattoo, but that
was too much for me.” He was grinning ear to ear and he definitely
seemed stronger. When I met him everyone called him weak. Now he
seemed much stronger.
“ Are you going to the
meeting? Maggie and I are heading that way.” I kind of hoped he
would come. I would have liked the company.
He nodded. “I’ll help carry
supplies.”
“ Good, cause I am getting
too old to carry all this mess,” Maggie said amused as she came
into the hall.
We all gathered some supplies and
followed Maggie to the meeting spot in the woods. It was up the
mountain trail way out of the way. I was both a little excited and
a little hesitant about going. I had never been to a pack meeting
and I really didn’t know what to expect.
We entered a clearing. There were caves
all around the circular clearing. There were several pack members
already here. I looked around curiously as I sat supplies where
Maggie ordered. “You’ve never been to a meeting before have you?”
Danny asked coming up beside me.
I smiled up at him and shook my head.
“This is kind of neat.”
He nodded and took my hand. “I’ll show
you around,” he said and led me away from Maggie.
As we walked he pointed things out.
Every rock and cave had a purpose. It was a lot to remember. The
crowd silenced and I looked to see what everyone was murmuring
about. Dominic entered the circle. He was wearing nothing but a
pair of jeans that were slung low on his hips. My father and
another male followed. They were dressed the same way. They were
the three heads of the pack. The council came out and took their
assigned seats. They were all older former leaders who over saw how
Dominic ruled. Dominic started the fire in the center then he
howled. All the pack members cheered in excitement. It was neat
because I could feel the energy of all the wolves surge through
me.
“ This is so cool,” I said
looking around. My eyes locked with Dominic’s and I quickly looked
away. I didn’t want him distracting me tonight. I looked back at
Danny and he was standing close to me. Danny’s lips brushed mine,
and I felt my pulse quicken. I didn’t pull away and he took it as
an invitation. He deepened the kiss. He was suddenly pulled away
from me and knocked backwards. He landed on his back in the center
of the ring.
Dominic paced in front of Danny. I
scowled and hurried over to them. I shoved Dominic backwards. “What
the fuck are you doing?” I hissed.
“ You are out of line Kylie,”
Dominic growled getting in my face.
I refused to back down and let him beat
up Danny because of his pride. “You are out of line!” I hissed
shoving him again.
“ I have a right to challenge
whoever I want to,” he growled. He was pressing his body to mine
and I was pressing my body to his. Neither of us would back
down.
“ No you don’t. You are being
a bully.” Everyone around us had gone silent. Danny had got back to
his feet and was watching us.
“ Dominic what is going on?”
Audrey asked coming into the circle.
“ This isn’t over,” he
whispered then backed away. “Nothing!” he snapped as he passed
Audrey.
Audrey looked at me and she looked like
she wanted to start something. She thought better of it and walked
off to follow Dominic. Danny caught my arm and pulled me to him.
“Thank you, but I could have defended myself,” he
whispered.
“ It wasn’t about that,” I
said quietly and walked off. I was so annoyed I didn’t want to be
around either of them. I didn’t understand what Dominic wanted. I
went over and sat on the rock next to Maggie.
“ That boy has never fought
anyone over a woman,” Maggie said amused.
“ He’s being a dick,” I said
quietly.
The crowd quieted and Dominic walked
back out into the center. “The rankings are tonight. We will start
