Chapter Seventeen

Nick took a sip of his wine, his eyes darting over the guests. And as always, he couldn't help but linger over one guest in particular. His grandfather was right. Cady looked stunning, especially under the low lights of the dining room. Her skin glowed under the soft lights, a light blush tinting her cheeks, lips full and red, her auburn locks swept artfully aside. She was the most beautiful woman he'd ever seen. And that dress. The moment she walked in wearing that dress, all he could think of was dragging her upstairs, peeling it off of her and having his way with her in one of the bedrooms. She smiled and laughed and chatted with the people around her with ease and grace. He was surprised to see her, but he should have known since Grant always took her as a default date for Lycan functions, unless his mother was in town.

"...And it really is a beautiful home!" a twittery, nasal voice said from his right. "It's like that Pride and Prejudice movie!"

He was jolted out of his reverie by that voice, which was not the first time that night. "Thank you, Constanza," he replied politely.

Constanza Dantis was the daughter of one of Vasili's Lycan business partners from Eastern Europe, who had tagged along for this "meeting". Of course, he knew this was one of his grandfather's schemes, a way for him to meet a suitable Lycan girl. However, it was obvious that Vasili had never even or seen her. Sure, Constanza was beautiful and young, but she surely wasn't what Vasili was hoping for a granddaughter-in-law. Nick had gone to the private airstrip in Hudson with Vasili to pick up the delegation and when she stepped out of the plane, she was teetering on 5-inch heels, paired with a short, bright yellow tight dress that barely covered her behind and showed off her ample breasts. Her platinum blonde hair was done up so well it didn't move even in the slightest breeze and the cloud of flowery perfume that followed her everywhere was so thick, he couldn't tell what her scent was. Nick rode in the car with her, and all she did was complain about America and Americans, ignoring him the whole drive. The only time she did shut up was when they pulled into the mansion, and she couldn't stop talking about how big and beautiful it was, nor would she let go of his arm during the whole mini-tour Vasili had arranged. Her tone completely changed once she realized that there was a chance she could become the mistress of the mansion.

"It reminds me of this tour to England I went on with Papa last year! Let me tell you..."

He let her drone on and on about her travels (and of course, her complaints about the people, food, places) and smiled politely, not listening to a word she said. He let his eyes drift once again to Cady, who was talking to an older Lycan man, a former prince from Germany, apparently.
