I spend a boring afternoon watching as the Alphas arrive and then move to the backyard to enjoy time by the pool.
Finally, Clint comes back to the room, just as I get out of the shower. The official cocktail party starts at 6pm, with a sit–down dinner at 7pm.
Calista and I wanted to go shopping this week, so Luna Olivia and Beta Naomi took us with Clint and Anders as our guards. Luna Olivia Informedthat, as my surrogate mother, she was responsible for buying my dress for both nights. I wanted to argue, but she wouldn’t hear it.
So, tonight. I’m wearing a royal blue midi wrap dress that has a v–neck, flutter sleeves, and a matching sash. The dress comes to my knees, and I have a pair of 3–inch silver heels to go with them. I decide to leave my hair down in its large curls and after I finish getting ready, I feel Clint cup behind me.
He pulls my hair off one shoulder, kissing the spot on my neck where I know he hopes to markone day very soon, sending shivers down my spine. “I will be there with you all night. If I’m not at your side, I will be close enough to get to you in less than two minutes. You will always have three warriors surrounding you, so the Alphas will know immediately that you are the Guardian. If you or Andra feel uncomfortable at any time, mind linkimmediately and I’ll be there.”
I turn around, breathing in his scent and letting it calm me. “Thank you.”

Lyle will be on your guard duty all night and the other two will rotate depending on whether or not Patrick, Calvin or I am also on your guard. Don’t leave my sight without tellingwhere you’re going, even if it’s the bathroom. I know it sounds intrusive, but I’m not taking any risks with you.”
“Okay.” I say. He pulls back and looks at me, Donovan coming forward. “Andra, we need you to agree as well.” He says to her.
“I have no intention of being taken by anyone but my fated mate. I will let you know if I feel uncomfortable.”
“Perfect answer.” Donovan purrs at her.
Clint pulls Donovan back and I pull Andra back. I see his eyes go unfocused and I’m guessing he’s mind linking my guard. He nods and takes my hand. “Ready?”
“As I’ll ever be.” I say. When he opens the door, Warrior Lyle and Lucas are there, waiting for us.
“You look lovely this evening. Lily.” Warrior Lyle smiles at me.
“Thank you. Thank you, both. I know tonight will probably be as stressful for the two of you as it is for
me.”

“Don’t worry about it. Lily.” Lucas says to me. “We volunteered. You’re part of our pack and no one is taking our pack member against her will.”
As we walk down the stairs, I can hear that the party seems to already be in full swing. “Everyone is hoping to see the newest Guardian.” Clint says, as if he just read my mind. Who knows, maybe he did. He’s very in–tune tolately.
When we walk in the door, I have Clint on one side, Warrior Lyle on the other and Lucas at my back. The room goes quiet, and I instantly feel my heart rate increase as everyone turns and looks in my direction.
Andra, sensing my unease, pushes forward and I feel the mood in the room change. Clint squeezes my
hand before he guidesinto the room. Alpha Patrick comes up, taking Clint’s spot.
“I’ll make introductions, why don’t you go check on Anders.” He says to Clint. Clint nods and walks toward Anders. This must have been pre–planned. I know his job is to make sure that Anders is safe tonight. While unlikely, it’s not unheard of that packs will attempt to take out a new Alpha on or before their Alpha ceremony. Clint, Alpha Patrick and Beta Calvin are on double guard duty this weekend.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmLuna Olivia joins us, and it helps to ease the feeling of my being surrounded by a group of fighters. There are a few standouts among the Alphas. Alpha Benjamin and Alpha Jerboth make my skin crawl. Both of them have their Betas with them, and interestingly, I like Alpha Jerome’s Beta, Emerson. He seems like a much better man than his Alpha does.
After the introductions of those two Alphas, I see Alpha Patrick slip away and he is subtly replaced by
another warrior.
