Aubrey's P.O.V
"Luna. " I mimicked , wiggling my hands like they're made of jelly . What an aweful name for an awful person . Whoever this 'Luna' girl is , I'm pretty sure she's dumb . I mean , look at Zack ! He's everything a girl wants in a boy , WHO WOULD BREAK UP WITH HIM !?
Sighing , I decided that I really needed that sleep Zack was talking about earlier . Damn my limbs are starting to gain weight by second .
"Zack ? " I called , walking towards the room that he'd went in earlier .
"In the bathroom . " He answered , followed by the sound of running water . "The dresser by the left was cleared so that you can unpack . You can take a short nap after cleaning yourself up , but we're having dinner at 7 sharp , think you can wake up ? "
"Uh , yeah . Okay , so if I'm taking the bed , where're you supposed to sleep ? " I asked , not wanting the boss to sleep on the couch . I mean , look at this building ! There must be at least an empty room to squeeze tiny me inside .
"No worries Tesoro , I'll take care of that after dinner . "
Okay then .. Left dresser , here I come .
To say , his room is huge . By huge , I mean HUGE . The floor is made of wood and the whole room smelt of the forest , and trust me , it smelt good . The walls are mostly made up of glass , which made it visible to look at the forest that's surrounding the mansion . If there's a sea at the opposite of the balcony , it'd be perfect .
Wait , wasn't I going to unpack ? Yeah , distracted by Mother Nature . Can't argue with it .
Landing my hands at the golden handle , I couldn't help but shiver slightly . It felt like home already . And that scares me , a lot .
Pulling my luggage together with me , I walked into the ... whoa YOU CALL THIS A DRESSER ?! THIS IS A FREAKING ROOM !!
The door actually leaded me to a huge room . And yes , everything that is Federico related is huge , get that to your thick skull Aubrey .
The floor is made up of pure white marbles , the walls are in a shade of royal gold . There are built-in closets in every wall , you know ,those kind where you have a sliding door at ? Yeah .
The other wall at the right were exhibited with .. I don't even want to count the number of heels on that wall . It's just .. I don't even .. Gosh .
The closets were filled with dresses , each in different colors and sizes , and I'm pretty sure those are from the latest clothing lines in Paris , the fabric of the dresses had the word 'Federico' imaginary written all over it .Expensive enough that I dare not touch .
The other corner of the room is filled with drawers of accessories , all devided nicely according to their group . And I swear to god that's not the first nor the second diamond bracelet I've found in there .
"Zack ? "I yelled , walking out of the dresser .
"Yeah ? " Just in time to see him walking out of the bathroom , wearing nothing but a towel hanging dangerously loose around his waist . The droplets of water that've dropped from his hair traced down his toned abs , having me mentally drooling .
"Cara ? " He smirked , brushing his fingers through his hair . "Anytging wrong ? "
"I uh .. There's actually dresses and stuff in the dresser . I was kind of wondering if your girlfriend or whosoever left it there . " I pointed at the dresser behind me , swallowing up the jealousy of another girl to myself .
He arched is brows , " There's no other girls than you cara . Those are for you Tesoro . What ? You don't like them ? "
My heart literally stopped . Did he just .. am I having imaginary hearing ? Am I dreaming ? Gosh DID HE JUST SAYS THERES NO OTHER GIRLS THAN ME ?!
OH MY GOSH HES GAY . So long for imagining things from happening between you two Aubrey .
"I -uh .. I .. " I shuttered , trying to keep my heart in pace .
His smile dropped in a matter of seconds , staring at the black space behind me , as if something's whispering into his ears and he's trying to get it right .
"Uhm cara , I have to go for a while but i'll be back for dinner . And if I didn't show up before 7 , there'll be two person escorting you to the dining room . Have a nap cara . " He said , Walking into his dresser at the other side of the room as fast as his feet could get him .
Okay that was weird ...
And so te dresses are all for me ? Not LUNA'S ? Maybe he's just saying that to shut me up ? Gosh .
"Alright then . " I sighed to myself , grabbing my lazy butt back into the dresser to unpack .

Zack's P.O.V
"I'll be heading to Birmingham next week , get the pack ready . " I said , crossing my legs up onto my desk .
"Yes alpha . Anything else ? " Ruscco , my beta for the France's pack asked , holding up the files that'd I handed to him earlier .
"Owh and my mate will be join in us for dinner later . Please take good care of her while her stay for this week , she's mortal and I don't want anyone to take advantage if her or I'll dislocate their arms . Report to me if anything happenes to her , clear ? " I said in a icy alpha tone , the tone rogues hear every once in a while .
"Crystal . " He bowed slightly , before leaving me in my office .
That it . I'm going to have to tell her , by hook or by crook . After dinner it is.
Burying my nose under the huge pile of France pack businesses , I sighed. Imagine the violence I'll have to use without her scent lingering in the air to calm me down .
**
"I SAID I WANT THE PACK MEMBER'S EXPANSES ! NOT SOME FUCKING FINANCIAL REPORT !! " I yelled , tossing the file at the floor . The poor guy stood there shaking like a leaf .
"I-I'm s-s-sorry .. alpha .. " He shuttered , almost touching the point I breaking down.
Just at this moment , someone knocked on the door . Wrong time buddy , think you'd just signed your death warrant .
"What !? " I scrawled , causing the person that's standing at the door to flintch .
"D-D-Dinner Alpha .. " He shuttered , fear shone in his eyes . His legs are shaking like thin chopsticks , just one slight push may make him fall .
See ? That's why I'm the alpha of the rogues , I have the effects on the people who doesn't follow the rules . I'm control pretty much every pack war around the globe . As long as there's no rogue attacks , there won't be wars . Easy as that .
"Shit .. " I murmured , looking down at my watch . 6:53 p.m . Good , I still have time .
"Leave . And escort my mate to the dining room please , she's expecting someone to bring her there. " I waved both of them off , before taking off my tux and slip on my v neck muscle fit .
The tattoo that I've been hiding under my tux have been dying to come out since the second i set foot in this building . The aura for being alpha is radiating into my skin , making me feel the adrenaline rush as I feel my power as alpha getting stronger by day .
Its tradition to have the alpha revealing the pack's tattoo on their pack dinner , and I have to urge to cover it up at all . Not anymore . The cobra that swirled up from my upper arm to my shoulder that leads to the left part of my chest with the Pack mark at the center symbolizes my position , my rank and my profile as an alpha .
But what will Aubrey think of this ? Too badasss ? Too mafia ? Too bad boy ? Does she even like bad boys ? Because if she do , I can do a lot more than just bad boy around .
**
"Alpha , Luna is on her way . " Russco linked me from the end of the table which seemed endless .
Nodding slowly , I cleared my throat . "Your future luna will be here in a matter of seconds , I expect you to behave and show your respect towards her . Take a good look at her and keep this in your thick skull , If you even lay your filthy hands on her , I'll dislocate your limbs and make sure you'll have a unforgettable death . Am I clear ? " pulling on my strict emotionless face , I stared at the with my icy orbs , giving the unmated wolves warning growls .
"Yes Alpha . "They answered , not one fibre in the room dare to look me in the eyes . I could feel their fear shaking under their skin , they better get that tattooed into their mind .
The scent of apple and honey hitted my nostrils , driving my wolf on edge as soon as the double door is being pushed opened , revealing my beautiful mate .
Her hair is tied into a messy bun , the sunny dress she wore stopped above her knees . Okay it was shorter than that , it's like.. under mid thigh , but she looked innocent and teasing at the same time .
All the pack members on the long dining table turned and looked at her , unable to tear their gaze away . Growling lowly , I gave them a warning look . 'MINE ! 'I screeched through pack link .
They quickly snapped their gazes back at their plate , whimpers were heard . These people are seriously digging their own grave .

Aubrey's P.O.V
It's 6:52 pm and I'm dressed for dinner . Gosh I'm hungry .
Don't ask me how long it took me to FINALLY pick out a blue sunny dress and pair of flats. Just don't .
The soft knock on the door snapped me out of my daydream . "Zack ? "
Opening the door , my heart silently dropped when i realized it's not who I'm expecting . Two men in their mid 20's were standing at the door , their legs trembling for no reason at all . I mean , am I that scary ? Is this 'Luna' girl really that scary ? Do I look like her that much ?
"Owh um hey . " I greeted them with a smile , trying to break the tense .
They looked at me with shock written all over their face. "Uhm luna , we're supposed to escort you to the dining room. " One blurted out , his gaze not leaving his feet .
Okay , I feel like one of those monsters on Monster.Inc right now . Gosh am I that scary ?!
"Sure.. " I closed the door behind me , letting them lead the way . I followed behind them silently , trying to crack up a conversation . The secretary should have wide friend circle right ? Especially the boss's friends .
"Uhm hey . " I spoke up , not forgetting to hang a smile on my face . Their back stiffened , before turning to face me . "is there anything wrong luna ? " they asked , examining my body to see if I was at harm .
"No . absolutely not . I uh , I'm Aubrey . " I lifted my hand for them to shake .
They looked at my hand , puzzled . "Lucas and this is Fred . " Lucas took my hand and gave me a shaky shake .
"Nice to meet you . " I said , happy that they finally cracked up a bit .
"Uhm , I think we better head for dinner . Alpha won't be happy to find us late with Luna . " Fred pulled the hem of Lucas's shirt , panic written all over his face .
"Alright .. " I trailed off . What's with the alpha and luna thing ? Don't we have a name ?
"Hey uhm Lucas , why are people calling me luna ? You know , since my names Aubrey and all . " I asked , following behind them .
His body stiffened for a second , before sharing a look with Fred . "Well uhm , it's not our place to tell .. Aubrey . But alpha will tell you soon enough . "
"Is Luna one of his ex girlfriend ? Because if he is , I don't mind you guys telling me . Trust me , I don't . So can't you please tell me? " I gave them my famous puppy dog eyes , but guess again , they don't buy what I'm trying to sell here .
"Nope . I still wanna keep my head . " Fred murmured , stopping right in front of a white painted wooden double doors .
"You're really friendly Aubrey , I wish I could tell you but I can't . I'm sorry . "he gave me an apologetic look , before looking right at Fred again .
"Alright , you ready luna ? " Fred and Lucas both have their hands on either side of the door . Slowly nodding , I turned my gaze to the slowly expanding gap between them as they were being pulled opened .
Holy Mother Of Candies WHY ARE THERE SO MANY PEOPLE AND WHY ARE THEY LOOKING AT ME LIKE THAT?!
The boys were looking at me from head to toe , the hidden lust in their eyes were noticeable as I tried to cover up my exposed legs with my hand , shifting uncomfortably . Every single female in this room is narrowing their gazes at me , yes , I just said EVERY . Even the 50 year old maid that stood at the corner is doing it so . Okay what have I done wrong ?
I stood there frozen in place , wanting to turn around and tell the boys that they've got the wrong room. Suddenly the whole dining room went silent .
Okay this is weird .. Did I farted or something ? Owh gosh this is so embarrassing.
Someone at the far end of the table cleared his throat , which is like so far away I can't see anything but a tiny dot .
"Cara , so nice of you to join us tonight . "A familiar voice came rang , causing me to sigh in relive . So I did not came to the wrong room then .
Picking up my pace , I quickly walked towards his direction , not wanting to catch scary glances from the people on the table .
To say , it was a long walk . Damn why does he have to be that far away ? Ain't it better if we just cut the table into half ? It's too long and I highly doubt that my legs wouldn't break when I reached Zack .
When his figure came to a clearer view , I couldn't help but take a sharp intake of breath .
He wore a shirt . A freaking shirt . Well since everything he'd wore I'd just tux . I started to even think that it's all he have in his wardrobe . Businessmen.
His muscular arms were place on the table , flexing the muscles without him even noticing it . A huge ass tattoo were inked on his arms , swirling up the skin that's been covered by his shirt . Inching forward , I can feel his strong aura calling back at me . Damn hormones .
"Hey . " I greeted , breathlessly . His eyes were locked with mine since the moment I started to walk towards his direction . His ocean blues shone right into mine , taking my breath away . He's so hot tonight . Too hot that I'm afraid I need to get some air .
"I've saved a seat for you mon amour. " He said , patting at the saved seat beside him . (A/N : mon amour is French . You know ,since they're in France )
I quietly sat down , looking around the table . Damn he hadn't told me that there's so many people joining us . Wait , is there any business acquaintance ? Am I supposed to dress formal for this ?
"What's wrong cara ? " He asked , frowing .
"Nothing . " I smiled , looking down at my food. Right , why ain't everyone eating ? The spegetthi looked delicious !
"Why aren't anyone eating ? " I whispered at Zack , earning nothing but a chuckle .
"You're allowed to dine . "he announced . Within seconds , the dining room is filled with the sound of forks and knives .
"Bonapattite Aubrey . " I said to myself , smiling at the food . (A/N: did I get it wrong ? Sorry but I'm not good at French)
**
"Urgh I'm so full !! " I groaned , tossing my head backwards . I don't understand why we're in the mansion's park but the walk is really helping me with my digestion.
He chuckled , " nobody told you to swallow up the other plate of spegetthi . "
I gave him a dramatic look , " Mommy says we can't waste any of our food . " I ended up with the tone mom used on me .
"Well okay mom , let's sit down shall we ? " he pointed at the bench at the distance not far from us .
Mentally doing the happy dance , I flopped down at the bench . "God this felt so good . " I could feel my stomach relaxing , together with my butt .
He letted out a throaty chuckle again , joining me at the bench . We sat there in a comfortable silence , letting the sound Mother Nature fills our ears . You know , the sound of bugs and .. yeah , you got the picture alright .
"Cara , I have to show you something . " He suddenly turned and look at me , nervousness were sensed . Okay so he's nervous .. for ..?
"Yeah , Zack ? What's it ? " I looked back at him . Something tells me what's about to happen is no good .
"Don't freak out okay ? " He said again , this time looking deep into my eyes . Okay he's really scaring me right now . What ? That he'd killed someone ?!
"Okay ." I looked at him as he stood up and pull his shirt over his head . So he's going to show me his OH MY GOSH THAT TATTOO IS AMAZING!!
A tattoo swirled up his shoulder , down at his chest , which looked like a logo .
"It's beautiful . " I whispered , wanting to trace my fingers down at his inked skin .
"No cara , this is not what I wanted to show you . " He groaned as my finger came in contact with his arm . Okay so this is not what he wanted to show me ? Then what else ? Tracing my gaze down at his stomach and further South , I gulped . No shit .
"Aubrey , I want you to be open minded about this okay ? Don't freak out please . " He held my shoulder , making me look him in the eyes .
"Uhm okay .. " I answered . Oh my gosh , OPEN MINDED ?! Gosh he's really going to show me the .. GOSH STOP IT AUBREY !
"Aubrey , I'm a werewolf . " He suddenly said , his eyes not leaving mine .
He's crazy . He's officially crazy . Too bad he's hot though .
"Uhm you okay Zack ? " I asked , placing my hand at his forehead .
"I'm not joking Aubrey . " His face turned all serious all of a sudden .
A werewolf ? What is this ? Teen wolf ? Damn he's good at this . And the oscar goes to ..
"Aubrey ? " He asked again , shaking me up abit .
"You're still not a werewolf Zack , c'mon maybe you need some sleep . " I started to link our arms together , wanting to drag him to bed .
"Look Aubrey . I'm not joking and I'm going to show you why . " He said , taking a few steps back .
"Close your eyes and open them in a count of three cara , can you do that for me ? " He asked , placing both my hands and cover up my eyes .
"Just this once Zack , the you're going to bed . " Gosh this man had too much of life . He's starting to hallucinate !
Taking a deep breath , I started to count .
"One . " The sound of bones cracking was heard .
"Two . " The sounds of muscles tearing was heard , but I ignored it .
"Three . " Soft sounds of someone tapping at the grass was heard .
"Zack , can we go to bed no- " I pulled down my hands , expecting a crazy Zack but I came face to face with a ... a ... GIANT WOLF .
"Uh Zack ? Help ..? " I said , trying my best not to make any sudden movements . That's what national geography taught me . NO SUDDEN MOVEMENTS .
The wolf took a step forward , tilting his head a bit .
"Zack ?! Stop playing please.. there's a wolf right in front on me .. call 911 or something .. " I said , trembling .
The wolf lowered his head at me , showing no harm . He whined a bit when I refuse to pat him .
Okay this is ... THIS IS SO FUCKING CUTE !!Wait till Travis hear about this , like 'Hey Travis , I went to Paris and guess what ? I've came face to face with a wolf ! ' that'd be awesome!!
"Good doggy .. " Slowly , I placed my hand at the top of his head , testing if he'd bite me . Getting nothing at all , I slowly stroke his fur .
To say , he's quite beautiful for a wolf . The silver fur were mixed with a little golden brown at the tip of his ears . The silver fur were like glitter strips , shining through the night .
Taking another step forward , I took the dare and place my other hand to stretch the side of his neck . Dogs love it when we do it , I don't even know why.
He purred softly , leaning his head down at my hand , tapping his paws lightly at the soft grass . His eyes were rolled to the back of his head . See ? Dogs love it !
I stopped as soon as I remembered about Zack .
"Zack ? " I asked ,looking around me .
Looking down at the harmless wolf , I asked " Hey little bud , have you seen my friend ? He's not wearing a shirt and he looks delicious . Have you eaten him ? " I chuckled at the last statement .
He suddenly took a few steps backward and wiggled his tail .
Okay so he'd seen .
He then walks behind a tree ,by that , I mean , the only tree In the mansion's park .
He's not helping over here ! guess I'll have to look for that drunken boss myself .
Just as I decided to leave the wolf behind the tree and keep on with my search for my missing boss , he walked out from behind the tree . Butt Naked .
"Hey um , cara , can you hand me my shirt ? " He pointed at the shirt that he'd left at the bench .
"WHERE WERE YOU ?! AND WHY ARE YOU NAKED ?! THERE A WOLF JUST NOW AND -" then reality hits me .
"You're the wolf ? " I asked , looking at him with unbelieving eyes .
