Chapter Ten

Against her better judgment, she allowed Colin to give the note to Jake who was enraged at the message.

“I’ll get down to the bottom of this. Mark my words!” Jake roared and slammed his fist on his desk. “For now, don’t worry about this. Train and prepare. Let me handle this nonsense.”

While it was quite possibly the best course of action, she hated that it made her feel weak, needing the men around her to watch over her. This was one of many times she’d question her choice to be Alpha. It wasn’t that she didn’t understand the risks, the responsibility…but the amount of enemies she’d acquire had far surpassed her expectation.

Dinner in their room was followed by two rounds of vivacious lovemaking that kept Nala in a state of euphoria she wished would last forever.

The next three days followed the same pattern of training, breakfast, showering, followed by lovemaking, lunch and numerous other distractions. Colin had succeeded in the distraction department with two trips searching for a dress for Nala to wear to the wedding. While she only concerned herself with mobility in the event she’d have to defend herself, Colin argued for a more form fitting cocktail dress. They’d met in the middle with a thigh length black dress that flowed once past her waist with a formfitting lace bodice on top.

She was once again in her bathroom, on a stool, while Carissa, the pack beautician, worked her magic. Her dark hair had been pulled into an elegant French twist, accentuated with baby blue gems along both sides. Carissa had insisted on a bit more makeup since it was an evening event.

“What are those?” Nala pointed at the black, caterpillar like things on the beautician’s finger.

“Fake eyelashes. Hold still.”

“Nope! No way. Get those things away from me. My eyelashes are fine.”

With a sigh, she tossed them in the trash. “Really, it would have been so beautiful.”

She snickered. “I already let you put three extra layers of makeup on me. I think I’ve given as much as I’m willing.”

“Well, let’s see what you think.” Carissa stepped back and held her arm out toward the mirror.

Nala stood from her stool and looked at her reflection. She had to hand it to the crazy Lycan beautician. The extra makeup had given her a magical transformation.

“Stunning. Right?”

She shook her head. “I wouldn’t go that far.”

“Ha!” She tossed her brushes in her bag. “You could be on the cover of Vogue. Who are you kidding? With that bone structure and skin tone…it was the perfect canvas.”

Pulling the tissue from around the neck of her dress, which plunged too low for her liking, she had a view of the full deal. It would be impossible for her not to feel sexy like this. The low neck line made her feel less a warrior and more a harlot, but it had given her mate an erection he couldn’t hide in the store. It seemed like the perfect torture device for him, so she conceded.

“Enjoy the wedding!” Carissa called over her shoulder as she hurried out of the bathroom.
