Him!

Luna Magda's POV

The party is lit!
When Jace told me he would have a private party in this club, I thought he was talking about twenty to twenty-five people. But the room is chock-full, there's no room for another chicken. The atmosphere is brisk, as is the free booze at the bar. Sponsorship from the Alpha, the Beta claimed.
With Rachel and Clair, I swing to the popular Afrobeat, Jace is watching us from the bar. His eyes sparkle; he is clearly enjoying himself by just watching the wolves go wild on the dancefloor. But my gut warns me to be alert, something in the way the Beta looks at me and sometimes lightly touches me tells me he is more than amicably interested in me. Strange is that because I have told him since our first meeting that I am mated with Esis and if that is not enough, the mark on my neck emphasizes my assertion. Not to mention Esis's scent sitting over me. If my suspicions are true, the Beta is maneuvering on thin ice. But I am not the one who will encourage him. Adultery is not my thing, Esis is everything to me. I just want to complete this mission I owe to my friend.
"This party is the best I have attended in ages," Clair shouts at me over the music.
I chuckle; she is on her fifth glass and I suspect she is a bit tipsy. I hardly have any comparison material. My ex-fiance Robin took me to the big city twice for a romantic dinner and a few hours in a club. We danced then and it was indeed a great time. This club, of course, is quite an experience because now I am here with girlfriends, so I can indulge to my heart's content. If Esis were here, I could be less casual. So, this is my only chance to let loose with my two girls.
It is already close to midnight when Jace gives a short speech about how it is necessary to relax for once and that he has the need to party with friends to blow off some stress. He was pulled off the stage by some she-wolves who buried him in kisses. Yeah, seems like this Jace is the playboy of the pack; he was clearly enjoying the attention he was getting. "Hey girls, a gorgeous guy stepped into the club. I've never seen him in the pack before, maybe it's a friend of Jace's," Rachel now whispered eagerly with eyes wide. "This one I'm going to own and tonight he's in my bed," she declares confidently.
Clair and I thunder with laughter.
"And here I thought you were madly in love with the Alpha, Rachel. Are you doing a swap tonight or just a one-night stand?" I call out to her over the music. Her eyes are still tightly fixed on the male she has in her sight. "He can keep me as long as he wants. I'm ready for him," she whispers seductively. Clair shakes her head and rolls her eyes. "This is why you are still single, girl. Maybe your mate heard you talking like this and ran away from you as far as he could," she explains dryly. Rachel doesn't let herself off the hook. "His loss. At any rate, I won't continue to grieve. See what I can get instead!," she states and begins to dance away from us toward the guy she targeted. At least one male wolf is going to be lucky tonight.
But then I see Clair's eyes grow wide.
"Hey, Magda. I think Rachel has been rejected. The guy is indeed exclusive. But Rachel is not his game," she whispers, taken aback. Still in no mood to interfere with my friend's sex life, I swing my hips to the beat. "Ooohh, goodness. Magda, he's coming our way. Goodness!" Clair now shouts in my ear as she dances closer to me. It's as if she is seeking protection from me, this strong warrior is so afraid of emotions. And then I feel two big hands holding my hips from behind, pulling me against a strong body and a face on my neck. The scent of a delicious cologne invades my nostrils and the sexual shudder that passes through me can only mean one thing.
Esis! My husband!
I gently shove Clair off me and wrap my arms backward around the man's neck. I lift my face and our lips meet. The kiss that follows makes me forget everything around me; it's as if Esis and I are alone here on the dance floor. "My wife. What are you doing in a club without your husband?" he whispers in my ear when we finally parted our lips. Blissfully, I turn around and hide my head against his chest. "Oooh God, how I've missed you! Esis, I love you so much," I murmur against his skin. He laughs huskily and hugs me more tightly. "That's what I want to hear. I missed you too much to stay away," he says into my hair.
When I lift my head, I notice everyone around us staring.
Rachel and Clair's mouths hang open, and their eyes threaten to pop out their sockets. I beckon them to come closer. "Rachel, Clair, this is my mate, Alpha Esis of the Midnight Moon pack," I introduce the trio. They nod at each other. "Magda, sorry. I didn't know it was your mate," Rachel now stutters, startled. I wink at her and dive back into Esis' arms. "Let's get out of here. I must inform Alpha Jasper that I'm in his pack and have come to get my mate".
I look around and don't see Jace anywhere.
"Beta Jace is also in the club. But we can leave. I think the Alpha is in his study," I answer Esis as I look radiantly into his eyes. After another scorching kiss, we walk out of the club hand in hand. In the parking lot, he takes me in his arms again. "No more trips without me and no more empty bed without you, my love?" I nod happily, for this moment, my heart is bursting with love. "I couldn't believe you didn't trust me to tell me the truth. No secrets anymore, my husband?"
Esis pecks me on the lip. "I can't risk you running away from me once more, so no secret, my love". We get into a vehicle and drive straight to the packhouse. My mate holds my hand firmly in his and presses feathery kisses on it. It feels marvelous to have my mate by my side. I have missed him more than I realized and I have no intention of ever going anywhere without him again. ...
