Chapter 71

Winter POV 

The summit is unlike anything I’ve ever seen before. It’s unreal, the amount of Alpha and Luna’s that are present and

women here are wearing such tight dresses that it’s a miracle in itself that they are able to walk, not to mention their shoes! I feel sorry for them. It can’t be much fun being barely able to move. Plus, Kai has already told me I’m beautiful, so he doesn’t seem to think I’m underdressed.

“Are you alright?” Kai asks me and I try to give him a smile, albeit a bit of a shaky one. This is nothing I’d anticipated ever going to but that didn’t mean I wanted to spoil it for him. After all he’s really trying, being the perfect gentleman and I was appreciative of all his efforts. He’s trying to make sure I’m comfortable, even with this large crowd.

“I’m alright” I say quietly, the rasp almost completely gone from my voice now “just overwhelmed” I admit, after all it’s not a lie, I am extremely overwhelmed and uncomfortable in such a large crowd.

“I’m right here with you sweetheart” he tells me and I feel the hand of his on my back as we slowly walk into the room, Kai making a beeline for another man, making sure I’m by his side the entire time.

“Alpha Terrence” he exclaims and the man turns, one of the few present without a Luna by his side. He lights up the second he sees kai and its clear to see that they not only know each other, but that they know each other well.

Teye the man curiously. He’s large and well built but he’s nothing compared to Kai who seems much bigger and more muscly in comparison. Still he’s a handsome man with dark brown hair and a sheepish looking smile on his face, his green eyes twinkling as he greets Kai back. He seems nice. I like the look of him.

“Terrence this is Winter, my mate” Kai tells him with a smile, pushing me slightly forward as I shoot daggers at him. I’m feeling shy.

“It’s a pleasure to meet you Alpha Terrence” I manage to croak out and the other Alpha smiles and shakes my hand eagerly.
