"Will you dance with ?" Alpha Jaso suddenly asked,
redith's face turned back to his and stared at him in a state of shock.
She recovered from it quickly, saying,
"Ye-Yes, that would be nice." She was bored standing alone and since Marcus wasn't back there would be no harm dancing with him. Also she can put in a good word for her friend Katrina.
redith gulped down the last of her champagne and placed the empty glass on a table near them.
After Alpha Jaso offered her his hand, She took it shakily and before she knew it, he was leading her to the outer circle of the people dancing.
redith glanced around but there was no sign of Marcus anywhere.
Alpha Jaso stopped and raised his eyebrows.
"Have you danced before?" He asked.
"Yes. Don't worry your feet are safe.."
He nodded and let out a chuckle. He took her left hand and placed it gently on his right shoulder while his left hand held her
right one.
His right hand pressed delicately against the her back, bringing her in closer to his body.
He slowly led her through the first initial steps of the dance. Then he spun her out away from his body, a smile spread across on redith's face.
She doesn't rember the last ti she had this fun. Maybe it was because she knew deep down that he wouldn't hurt her or the fact that Katrina liked him. Katrina wouldn't like a bad person right? Also they were in public he wouldn't dare harm her.
"So…" redith started once he pulled her back in.
Alpha Jaso raised his eyebrows as he waited for her to continue talking.
"About Katrina…When will you ask her out?"
An amused smile appeared on the Alpha's face.
"Are you trying to set
up with Katrina?"
redith blushed slightly and nodded.
"Y-yes. You will never know if you might be able to like her or not if you don't even get to know her personally. Not the ambassador that you always et at etings."
Alpha Jaso contemplated for a second before he nodded, "You're right. Since she is here, maybe I should shoot my shot." He winked at her and redith chuckled.
She thought the Alpha was going to a cold and aloof person but actually he was quite the opposite. He was really easy going. Now she sees why Katrina liked him.
He was handso. His dark hair was styled perfectly and his unfathomable onyx eyes frad his handso sculpted face and full lips perfectly.
"Yes, you should. Take her out on a romantic dinner date and enjoy yourselves." redith said with a smile.
"I will but you have to help
convince her to go with ." Alpha Jaso said as the music ended.
"W-" Before redith could say a word, she saw a blur and then Marcus was standing protectively in front of her.
"Marcus, nice to see you again mate." Alpha Jaso smirked.
Marcus glared at Alpha Jaso and without a word, he took redith's hand and dragged her from the ballroom. Everyone was staring at them.
redith blushed in embarrassnt. She could sense the anger radiating from Marcus. What the hell was his problem?
Marcus took her by the arm and guided her swiftly back to their suite. He was notably silent, and a tremor of anger flowed through him.
The instant the door closed behind them, Marcus
spun and confronted her. His eyes glittered dangerously
redith had never seen him this angry and shrank away from him.
"Why the fuck were you drinking with soone you just t and even touching him? The entire place is filled with sadistic vampires and manipulative supernatural beings and you just accepted a drink from a stranger?! when I clearly told you not to. Not only that, you were happily dancing with him!"
redith swallowed and bowed her head in guilt. She didn't an to worry him. But wasn't he a bit overreacting?
"S-sorry."
A muscle clenched in his jaw as he angrily replied,
"You're sorry?! You blatantly put yourself in danger and all you have to say for yourself is, 'You're sorry'?! Do you know the number of people depending on you right now? If you don't care about your life, at least think about them!"
Irritation surged up inside her,and she felt her pulse rising, "You left
alone in a den of vipers. Do you how stupid I felt standing there alone without knowing anyone? Also I'm sick and tired of everyone asking
to make decisions for my people.
People that I didn't even know existed a month ago! Have anyone ever stopped to ask
what I fucking want? I was happy, in love and content with my boring existence. I didn't ask for any of this!
redith said as a tear slipped from her eyes. All her pent up emotions were overwhelming her at the mont.
Marcus let out a loud growl in frustration, when he saw her tear.
"Fuck,I-I didn't an to raise my voice on you."
Marcus pulled her against his chest, feeling the muscle definition hidden beneath the dark suit.
redith's hands quickly co up and press against his chest, trying to push a little space between them, but she give up the second he whispers,
" "I'm sorry for losing my temper. You scared the shit out of
and I was—-"
He trailed off for a second before he continued, "I was jealous."
Jealous?
He was jealous seeing her with Alpha Jaso but why?
"You were jealous?" redith questioned, feeling the slight pounding rhythm of his heart beneath her right palm laying flat against his chest.
"Yes." Marcus replied.
"B-but why?"
Marcus stared longingly at her and redith's eyes widened in shock.
She watched as Marcus's expression changed. A feral glint passed through his eyes and desire morphed on his face.
Instead of replying to her, he completely shocked her when his hands gripped either side of her neck, and he slamd his mouth against hers.
