Chapter 13 Party Planning

I began to stir from my sleep with a strange feeling inside my body like I had more energy than I'd ever had. I felt stronger and my senses felt sharper. I then realized Logan was already out of bed. I got up and got dressed for the day just the usual jeans and a t-shirt. I looked at the calendar it was going to be my birthday tomorrow. Time had certainly flown by with all of the new wolves being here. Some had returned to their original packs while others chose to stay here, and a very few chose to go off on their own. I had grown close to a few of the wolves, one of them being Melly, Danny's mate. It seemed so sudden but almost days after she and her son Liam got here they had a mating ceremony. I guess it's the werewolf equivalent to getting married.

Whenever I try to talk to her about how she was so sure of him so fast. We always get interrupted by something or someone. Cinder has begun to speak to me a little more, but some of her messages remain vague. I have learned that wolves have different standing in the pack though I'm not a pro at it yet. Danny is the Alpha by birthright, but Logan as a member with alpha blood could challenge him for that position. The Alpha will choose someone of beta blood or higher as his second in command. After that, I got a little confused so Logan just said that people are placed based on their parentage. I guess I'm of alpha blood as well from what I understand. Melly had mentioned to me a few days ago about the Alpha ball. It's supposed to happen a few days after my birthday this year. She said that as a wolf with alpha blood I would be expected to go. Danny would be bringing Melly along since she was his mate even though she is of a delta bloodline. Like I said it's confusing.

Liam started to cling to Danny a lot lately always hiding behind him when another male wolf would pass by. I don't know what happened to them at that arena but I really hope that they will be able to heal in time. I could see why those males in my vision were fighting over Melly. She was a damn model, Tall, curvy, long copper red hair, stunning hazel eyes, a heart-shaped face. Men would fight over her even if she wasn't a werewolf. Liam had her copper hair, but dark brown eyes and freckles that covered his nose. When I headed downstairs most of the pack were making or serving plates filled with food for breakfast. Logan was there laughing with some of the boys. He smiled at me when he saw me. I smiled and made my way over to him. I hugged his waist as I looked up at him.

He leaned down to kiss my lips while I sneakily took the bacon off his plate. When he pulled away I was already running off with my prize. I was laughing wildly as he realized "Hey get back here you thief!" he yelled laughing. I kept laughing till I heard him place his plate on the counter. Run! Was my only thought so I booked it out of the house in my slippers. I could hear him behind me as I made it to my favorite little clearing. I hadn't visited it since the night I fell asleep. I stopped trying to figure out my next move when I was tackled to the ground. I squealed out of surprise, but Logan had made sure to grab me in a way that I wouldn't get hurt. I don't think however he expected the threatening growl that came as we both fell.

Logan's head shot up as he stayed over me protectively. I also looked up. The pure black wolf with amber eyes was back. I crawled out from under him "Hey it's okay he wasn't gonna hurt me we were just playing. He's my mate he wouldn't hurt me." I told the wolf. He stopped barring his teeth as Logan yet kept his imposing posture. I looked around when I thought I had heard a whimper nearby. I looked back at Logan who had lowered his head in a submissive way. I could tell by his clenched fists he was not happy about it. I walked over to the wolf and offered him a piece of bacon. I let out an 'offended' gasp when he took all the pieces in my other hand and ran off.

I playfully glared at the bushes where he disappeared "Jerk." I muttered jokingly. I felt Logan wrap his arms around my waist "You know that wolf?" he interrogated. I shook my head "No I just assumed he didn't like seeing you tackle me." I informed him. It was partially the truth but if I told him I had seen him in the woods before and he was probably the one who left me the flowers, then Logan might not let me go for walks by myself. Logan nodded accepting my answer "We should head back now." he advised. I nodded in agreement. Melly wanted to plan for my birthday and first shift tomorrow as well. I was a little anxious and slightly excited.

When we got back home Logan and some of the boys left to go hunting. Other members had gone to build their own houses within the pack land or buy one near here. I still have no idea where all their money comes from. Besides, it seems a little rude to ask. I went and found Melly in her and Danny's room. She was looking through her phone. Most likely for ideas for the 'party' she was going to be throwing for me. I sat on the bed "Hey Melly whatcha doing?" I asked even though I already knew. She looked up at me smiling "Looking at dresses for the ball." she told me which was a surprise. I giggled "I thought you would still be in party planning mode." I teased. She waved her hand "Oh that's already done and dealt with now we need to get ourselves something for the ball. I was thinking of something elegant and classy for myself since I have to impress all those alpha bloods." She admitted showing me some lovely evening ball gowns on her phone. I giggled "Oh yeah and what would you suggest for me?" I asked her honestly curious. The smirked deviously "Something sultry my dear, get all those young males to pay attention to you. Besides it will keep Loggie on his toes most of the night." she suggested. I had to admit it was fun getting Logan hot and bothered, so why not?
