Rose POV

It's been five damn hours now and still no sign of anyone.

I can't believe they actually forgot me. Did they just leave a young lady stranded in a new city alone at night?

Ohh come on, I can't even get through to my parents now, seeing there definitely is no network by this time in the countryside.

I waited a few minutes more and then decided to book a taxi with the little cash I carried with me to the nearest hotel before the train station gatekeeper kicked me out.

His eyes were practically shouting, get out already!

Thank goodness I carried extra cash just in case, I practically would have been stranded on the streets.

I got dropped off at the hotel, and then I made my way in with my luggage, and surprisingly, it seemed to be a club and hotel mixed in together.

The fee was costly but seeing it was the closest and the only one opened by this hour, I paid and got escorted to my room.

It was a cool beige coloured room, about medium-sized with an actual decent size bed, wow this definitely beats any hotel room in the countryside for sure.

I swiftly adjusted to the style of the room, had my bath and now just two things we're stuck right in my mind.

I mean, I literally have an actual exotic club right under me.

A place that I never saw in the countryside, so might as well use this costly fee to the fullest tonight and also try my best not to sleep.

The last thing I need is to have sex dreams before meeting the storms tomorrow.

I got dressed in a sexy short red light dress, then I did some light makeup on my face.

It is my first time at such a big club, I certainly do not want to be looking new and stupid there, so did my final touches and then made my way right down.

And oh my was it straight up loud and wild when I got right in, the sudden scent of alcohol and tobacco uncovered the entire space as I walked in slowly, leaving no room for me to breathe.

The various coloured flashing lights practically blinded me right up as I got pushed around by people, I certainly think, were overly drunk.

Well, I certainly know this is crazy, but I might as well get crazy before my big work right, also it wouldn't be so bad to have some crazy fun too.

I also certainly do not want to sleep, so I am going to party like crazy all night.

I grabbed a glass of alcohol and chugged it right down my throat and went straight for the dance floor,“ Yeah! It's my time to get lit!”

Vander POV

“ As the Alpha Vander, you need to decide soon, we can't keep holding this any longer from the pack, they certainly would soon find out,” my right-hand beta stated as we both sat in my office.

The air tense, the dullness and heated argument with a few board members, still lingered in the entire room.

“So you think it's best to inform them right now, when I still haven't found my mate, that the Crimson wolves have decided to move to London?” I questioned coldly, as I could feel his eyes avoided mine.

Jeez, this is so frustrating, it just had to be now of all times the Crimsons are accepted to move into London, they have been trying for years now but have never been cleared to enter, especially as a whole company.

“ Well what do you intend to do then, Vander?”

I chuckled as I then smirked, “What do you do with the trash that washed up at your shore?”

“You clear them out, of course.”

“Exactly, we just have to clear the trash out.”

My secretary Miss Kim voice cut right through my thoughts, “Mr Vander, your father is still calling,” her voice professional as always.

I blinked twice as I received the fresh air from the car drive and then let out a slow sigh, “just ignore it, let's focus on the road.”

I already had one hell of a long day with those board members and I already know what he wants, and I'm certainly not going to become a pickup boy for some girl I have never met, so it's best not to answer that phone.

The call stopped for a minute, and finally, I thought he had given up, until.

“Buzz, buzz-buzz-buzz!”

The phone rang nonstop this time and soon after I had to give in.

I scoffed as I can't believe the old man still doesn't want to give it a rest, “Just hand the phone over to me Miss Kim,” I stated as I received the phone from her, right after.

“ Vander are you ignoring your Father right now!” he voiced out, he definitely seemed pissed off.

“ You really don't know how to give up huh, old man, I'm not picking up any girl for you, if you need to see whoever she is so urgently, then go do that yourself or get Cyprus to do it.”

“ You know that twin of yours is impossible to reason with, so please just go pick her up, she certainly must have been waiting for hours already.”

“ I'm not doing it.”

“Vander—

I instantly then cut the call off, to avoid his response.

“Miss Kim, head to the Klein hotel, I would be sleeping there tonight,”

“Okay sir.”

Yeah, it's best to avoid that old man troubles tonight.

A few minutes passed, and I arrived at the hotel, I walked in and suddenly an intoxicating and unique scent lingered on my nose.

A scent I couldn't resist as I slowly walked right into the main club, my body instinctively followed the sweet, intriguing scent as though I were trying to find a prey, and then I saw her.

“Mine!” my wolf Drake growled as my adrenaline rushed right at the site of the stunning lady in a short red seductive gown, kissing a man.

I instinctively grabbed her right off him and towards me, but then noticed she was still held strongly by the one person I didn't think it would be.

Cyprus.

It was Cyprus, just what the hell is he doing here right now? Isn't he meant to be picking up father's new guest?

“ Vander, just what are you doing here?” he questioned with a smirk as his hand gripped tighter on her.

I could feel an intense anger in me at the sight of my brother still holding her hands even more tightly.

“Let her go, Cyprus, this isn't time for your jokes, she isn't one of your kind of girls,” I stated as I pulled her closer to me.

He pulled her right back with immense force as his eyes glowed, seemed like his wolf was trying to come out, “And just why do you think I'm here for jokes, huh?” his tone, stern.

“That's enough!” the lady voiced right out in anger as she slipped from both our grip that second, “You both are hurting jeez.”

Her tone was much calmer than I had expected it to be, her golden brown eyes glowed effortlessly even when seeing two strange men at her side.

She seemed too calm as though she already knew who we were, “you didn't have to stop a perfectly good kiss, if you were eager to join, you could have just asked.”

"Do you even know who we are?” I questioned.

Her eyes rolled as she certainly seemed annoyed at my question, “of course I do and now that you both are here, why don't we begin this, huh,” she smirked.

Just what is she talking— before I could react, I felt her lips on mine as a rush of electricity raced through my body, as my instinct instantly heightened.

I knew at that moment she was the one, the scent, those soft lips of hers, my hands instantly grabbed her head and pushed those lips further into mine.

As I hungrily devoured her tongue, my hands holding her neck higher as I dived deeply into that mouth of hers, the intensity of our kiss was maddening as I would rather not stop, I wanted to become one with her at that moment.

She suddenly stopped the kiss, her smirk should she knew exactly what she had done as she let out a slight chuckle.

I couldn't help but chuckle as I couldn't believe I was being toyed with by a lady I didn't even know.

“Now then, since you both are here, shall we just do this over and over with,” she said with a second and pulled us straight to her room.

She sat us right down and then stood right in front of us.

“ Cyprus, just why are you with this woman, she certainly isn't your type.”

“Well, I'm sure it's certainly the same reason you are here with her now, ” he smirked as we both faced her.

Ohh shit, please don't tell me we both have the same mate?

As she smiled and slowly undressed herself, leaving her skin bare right in front of us, for my eyes to slowly feast on.

“ Our Mate!” Drake growled even more as each second passed, with her scent becoming stronger, slowly driving me to lose control.

So I seriously have to share my mate with him?
