Chapter Three
As far back as she could remember, Eva had wanted to attend the werewolf court. To the teenager she had been, it represented the fantastic and exotic. A step away from her mundane human existence. So when she stepped through the double doors on Alex’s arm, her expectations were high.
Half an hour later, she’d realized werewolves were just like everybody else.
Alex had abandoned her three steps inside the door, leaving her to fend for herself. The soft hum of conversation filled the room, the wolves present congregated into little groups, none of which she belonged to. The sole human in the room, she felt a little like a goldfish. Watched, studied, but not spoken to. Not exactly the fairy tale she’d imagined it to be. Snagging a glass of champagne from one of the circulating wait staff, she retreated to the corner of the room and tried to blend with the drapes.
At least she was dressed for the occasion. The dress Sylvia had picked for her, far from being the monstrosity Eva had expected, was a stunning confection of midnight satin. With a low, but not trashy neckline, it emphasized her generous bust before nipping in at the waist, then flowing out into a wide skirt. Matched with strappy silver sandals, the delicate swish of satin around her ankles was a sensory delight and even she had to admit the stylists Sylvia had drafted for her hair and makeup worked wonders. She almost hadn’t recognized herself in the mirror, instead wanting to look behind her for the ethereal beauty she saw.
Alex had taken one look at her and turned away. He hadn’t spoken to her all the way here, sitting in silence opposite her in the limo. Limo! How the other half lived. Still, his brooding silence had eaten at her composure and she’d barely managed to avoid fidgeting. The only thing that stopped her was the desire not to give him another advantage over her. That hot as hell kiss in the bathroom had been more than enough. Even now, her lips and body tingled at the memory.
“Took out a whole nest of vampires, I heard.” Strains of a nearby conversation reached her ears and she paused, champagne glass halfway to her lips. Two older women stood nearby, gossiping as they looked across the hall. “Just waded in and cut them all down.”
It was easy to see who they were looking at. Alex stood near a large fireplace on the other side of the room, chatting to a petite and exquisite lycan woman. Jealousy clawed Eva’s stomach for a moment until the woman turned. She was pregnant, heavily pregnant. Eva’s breath left her lungs in a rush. The woman was another lycan’s mate. She had to be. From the little she did know about werewolves, they sometimes found it difficult to conceive. If Alex had fathered a child, then there was no way he’d be making carnal deals with her.
“I always did say he took after his grandfather,” one of the women carried on.
