~~~Scarlett ' s Pov

My mother and I went downstairs to meet my dad. He stood at the entrance of the ballroom doors waiting on us. He was wearing a black and white tuxedo with a black bow adorn around his neck, his hair was styled back giving him that sophisticated James Bond look. My mum went over to him and he looked down at her with admiration in his eyes. She place a reassuring hand over his as to tell him everything was going to be okay. It was a moment to take in. I tried not to get teary eyed. I saw them whispering and he finally turned around and saw me. His grey eyes lit up with excitement, I couldn't help but smile at him. "You look beautiful Scar." He said as I was making my way over to him. I embrace him in a tight hug.

"Thanks dad, you don't look too bad yourself either." Getting a chuckle from him.

"Thanks Scar." Kissing my temple. "Let's get this night over with with no interruptions. Is your brother coming?"

"Yes. I'm going to call him. I'll be right back. Just go ahead." I told them as I was making my way upstairs to call Pierce. That asshole!

"Pierce! Pierce!" I yelled his name through out the hall ways. I approached his bedroom door and didn't bother to knock. I turn the door handle and walked in. I saw Pierce putting on his jacket. He looked so handsome. Like a true Alpha to be.

"Damn cat woman you don't knock anymore? You nearly gave me a heart attack standing there taking in all this good lookingness. You could've just asked." He said flashing his killer smile where the dimples were prominent in each cheek. I gave him a quizzical look not sure how I wanted to answer him.

"And you're like a different kind of stupid. Because nobody says good lookingness Pierce. Yeah, you're a special kind of stupid alright. Now if we are done bickering like five year olds I suggest we make our way down to the ballroom to meet the parents. Shall we?" I turned on my heel not caring whether or not he was following behind me. I descend the staircase and made my way to the ballroom doors to see my parents talking to guests and engaging in light conversation with them. I smile at the little scene.

"Aren't you going inside?" Pierce said from behind me.

"I was waiting on you. I couldn't go in when I told them that I was going to fetch you and didn't exactly fetch you." I told him making him see the logic behind my words.

"Good idea. Shall we?" He held out his hand and I placed my hand in his and we both entered the beautiful decorated ballroom.

Julian's Pov

I arrived at the Ross's mansion in a black SUV with black tinted windows. I got out the van and saw two other SUV's pulled up in the parking lot where the valets took care of parking.

Chazz approached me with six guys behind him. I was here to discuss business matters with Alpha Caine. "Alright men, you know what to do. Three stay outside to keep an eye on any strange movement. Three inside to do the same as well." I turned to Chazz, "Let's do this." He nod and we walk off in direction of the front door. I pressed the doorbell and an old grey haired male servant greeted us.

"Good evening Alpha Julian of the Madrid Pack. Welcome. Alpha Caine has been expecting you. Please come in, so I can show you to his study where he's waiting for you." The servant said in a nonchalant tone.

We enter the house and follow the servant down the hallway. We stopped in front of a cream door where the servant opened it for us. He stood one side and allowing us to go inside. The Alpha stood in the middle of the vast room not noticing our presence. The servant cleared his throat and he then spoke, "Thank you Smithers. Please leave us." His back still turned to us.

"Yes Alpha." And the old man was gone from our sights. Alpha Caine turned around now facing us. His grey hair styled back giving him a sophisticated look and his black and white tuxedo making him appear like a dominant and powerful he is. His eyes shone with pride and admiration. He seem like a fair leader with a strong command of his pack.

"Good evening Julian and company." The Alpha approached me and held out his hand for a hand shake.

"Good evening Alpha Caine." I said and took his out stretched hand and shaked it. "This is my beta, Chazz." I stated. The Alpha greeted Chazz in the same formal manner. I told Chazz to take the men and leave as Alpha Caine and I were going to discuss the propositions of our alliance.

Chazz nodded and strode outside, leaving me and the Alpha to get down to business. We sat down by the fireplace discussing tactics and strategies to keep other packs from taking over. As well as from rogues who didnt belong to a steady pack could destroy or over rule a pack and kill it's pack members, depending on who is in control. They sometimes can be the worse.

Damn rogues.

"I like your approach Julian. That makes you a good leader and formidable opponent in battle." He told me as we were finishing the remains of our drink.

"Thank you Alpha Caine. It means a lot coming from a good Alpha himself." I said with all honesty. I was getting up from my chair getting ready to leave when the Alpha spoke.

"Julian can I ask you for a favour?" I stopped in the middle of my stride before I turned around to face him.

Shit.

"It depends on the favour you're asking Alpha." I stated coolly.

The Alpha rubbed his chin before answering. He stood up and then faced me. "How would you like to oversee my pack for a month?"

I agape.
