He watched silently as she stood there at the top of the staircase. Like an angel, her face was radiant, heavenly, so beautiful. A beautiful white dress hugged her slim body, ending just above her knees, and her dark hair was properly fixed up on her head.
For a moment, he was left hypnotized by her beauty. He had always thought of her as an angel in disguise. Up there, she was deity and everyone admired her from afar as if she was a goddess.
She was smiling. He stared at her and it seemed to him a broken heart was hiding behind that broken smile she plastered on her rosy plump lips. And still, she smiled, even as the speaker introduced her to the crowd, declaring her eighteenth birthday.
The grand celebration was taking place at the Kingsley Mansion. Werewolves from neighboring packs had come to see her. Not because she was of any importance per se but because she was human. This fact intrigued their curiosity.
Despite her beauty and innocence that stood out amongst all, she had werewolf blood running through her veins and just that was enough to welcome her to the werewolf world. It was where she belonged, after all, or so what her Grandmother had told.
People cheered and clapped their hands in the most graceful way possible as they watched her walk down the staircase. Each step she took was done with such grace and poise. People were left speechless as they watched her every step.
Anna felt her fast heartbeat throbbing inside her chest as she looked across the crowd. It was consisted of people whom she barely knew. Some of them however revealed familiar faces which she recognized. Although, she couldn't exactly point out their names nor could she even remember if she had ever known their names.
She took long deep breaths to relax herself. The spotlight was upon her. Everyone was watching. A smile was frozen upon her lips as she tried to keep herself together. Although, she felt as if the end of her lips were stitched to be kept wide and smiling.
She kept her hands together just above her belly as she took each heavy step downward. Her white heels didn't help either. She sighed and pursed her lips. Her eyes wandered to every corner of the large room. Once again, she roamed her eyes across different faces, searching for the same brown eyes that had always seemed to set her body on fire, sending her heart melting like an ice cream underneath the sun.
Her search was over no sooner than she liked to. She had reached the end of the staircase and John, her cousin, the Alpha of the Blue Wolf Pack, came walking towards her. They greeted each other in a light hug.
"Welcome to the Blue Wolf Pack, Anna," he said in her ear.
She felt her smile grow wider turning into a grin. They pulled back and he was already stretching out his hand to her. She took it gladly. "Thank you."
