Helena was stunned by the sudden shift in Roo's deanor.
He had gone from pleading by her door to the playful Roo she'd grown up with and now he was acting dark and possessive over her.
"I can hear your heart beating faster, Helena," Roo whispered as their dad stood at the end of the table. "You wouldn't want to draw too much attention to us."
"What us, there is no us," Helena scoffed. "I'm just happy to be ho."
"Oh yeah, you were happy," Roo teased. "But I think you were happier in my bed, in my hotel room, with my lips on yours."
Helena gasped at his words, making Rae turn to her.
"Are you alright?" Rae asked as she reached over and squeezed Helena's hand.
"I've got her," Roo told his sister with a smile.
"I don't trust you with this," Rae said, glaring at Roo as if she knew her brother was up to sothing.
"Dad's about to talk," Helena said as she tried to defuse the tense situation between the pair. "I'll be fine."
Rae glared at Roo before turning her attention back to Raul who was standing at the head of the table, commanding everyone's attention.
"He's an amazing Alpha," Roo sighed as she rested his chin on Helena's shoulder and placed his hand on her thigh.
"I'm sure you'll do just as well, if not better," as Helena turned to face him she felt Roo's lips brush against her cheek, sending sparks through her skin.
When their eyes t Helena couldn't look away.
"Blackmoon Pack!" Raul's voice echoed across the open space, soliciting cheers from their pack mbers. "It's been years since my family has all been around this table and tonight, Helena is ho!"
Again the pack erupts in clapping and cheering, celebrating Helena's return.
"See, I'm not the only one glad that you're back, Helena," Roo whispered in her ear as his fingers drew circles on her thigh.
"We have much to celebrate in the coming weeks and hopefully in the coming months as well," Raul gave a knowing look to Helena and Roo as if he knew what was happening under the table, away from everyone's wandering gaze.
"Over the coming days and weeks, we will be welcoming visiting Alphas and their packs as they arrive for both the Alpha Rite and the Blood Moon Ball," the current Alpha announced. "I expect them to be impressed by what they find on their visit."
Helena felt as Roo's hand climbed higher while everyone was distracted by his father's speech.
'Do you rember what it felt like when my fingers were last in between your legs?' Helena froze as Roo's familiar voice invaded her thoughts. 'Yes, love, I'm right here with you, no one else can hear us.'
"How?" she asked. Only the pack's Alpha and marked Mates could communicate directly ntally with one another.
If Helena had tried to talk to Rae through mind link for example it would have either been heard by the entire pack or by the Alpha, Raul.
'The closer we get to the Alpha Rite certain abilities start to surface,' Roo explained. 'Did you enjoy all the dirty things I did as I fucked you last night?'
Helena gasped at his words.
'Imagine if dad heard that,' Roo teased.
Helena could feel Roo's warm breath on her neck, any closer and his lips would brush against the curve of her neck. Helena didn't know if she could contain the moan that was threatening to break free.
"And with that, all that's left to say is welco ho, Helena, and good luck, Alpha Roo," The rest of the pack cheered as Helena felt her face heating up.
"Helena's never liked being the center of attention, no wonder she's blushing so hard," her mother, the Luna, said as everyone turned their attention to her and Roo.
'If only they knew why,' Hera teased Helena.
"I think Helena is getting overheated due to all the attention," Roo said with a smirk as his hand trailed the inside of her thighs.
Helena pressed her thighs together, but instead of discouraging Roo it seed to do just the opposite.
'Are you as wet for right now as you were last night?' he purred in her mind.
Helena simply responds to them with a smile before shaking her head. She didn't trust herself to speak. She knew her voice would co out shaky and breathless and there was no telling where Roo would take the conversation.
'Careful, love,' Roo said again, invading her thoughts. 'I can sll your arousal and it's fucking divine.'
"Don't you want to say sothing, Helena?" Roo asked, cocking his head to the side.
Helena glared at him, he knew that she was in no position to speak.
"Yeah, Helena, give us a speech!" Roo's Beta, Neil Jacks, shouted from a table nearby.
'Better stand, love,' Roo teased through their link. ' Before they think sothing's wrong.'
As he said this Roo pulled his hand away from her thigh and Helena let out a small wimper at the loss of his touch.
She hated that he had that effect on her and that he knew exactly what he was doing to her.
Slowly Helena stood and smiled at the crowd.
'Have I ever told you how hot you look taking charge,' Roo said, making Helena blush.
Their packmates whooped and cheered, taking her reddening cheeks as a sign of embarrassnt from having to speak to such a big crowd.
"Thank you for welcoming ho, I missed everyone and, most especially, my Mom, Dad, Rae, Rebecca, and Roo," as she said Roo's na, their eyes t and their gazes locked.
'Careful, Helena, they might think you missed too much,' Roo teased.
Helena quickly looked away and smiled at their packmates.
"It's good to be ho," she said carrying a genuine smile on her lips.
'And I hope you co back ho for good, Helena,' Roo said through their link as he stood up and clapped with everyone following suit.
Helena sighed but kept her smile, if only Roo knew how badly she really wanted to co back ho for good.
