Chapter 6 (Second Part)

Leroy straightens up by noticing this error, he looks away at his sister and finds that she already has another task to accomplish towards the roses. The alpha sighs and jumps from the platform, he walks forward in a hurry and forces himself to smile at all people who cross his eyes.

"Sorry, we haven’t found a mentor for you yet," he apologizes as soon as he reaches his level.

"Don’t apologize. Who would want the famous rose?" echoes a broken voice to Leroy’s mind.

Slightly perplexed by this thought, he frowns and concentrates.

"I hope you didn’t mind waiting. Anyway, how do you want to go? Do you want to walk? Be escorted there or in the wheelchair?" he questions while staring at the girls in the distance. They walk towards the stage, take off their red heels to give them, ok." denotes the latter. Motivated and focused, he allows himself to carry Lenore in his arms.

The young woman gasps out of surprise, then tightens her jaw and hurries to sit quietly like a submissive. Leroy on the other hand does not take the head and is content to escort her to the long chain of girls of different ages.

"Oh little baby." The alpha subconsciously reacts to the sight of an adorable four-year-old girl." Hey! But it’s my little one. "denotes it in a much more confused, but authoritarian tone." Evolet, Evolet, what are you doing in this row? " he asks the blonde girl firmly in front of him.

"I do like my dad! I’m doing the chain, plus I want one of those pairs of heels that these girls refuse, you think the other girl my age will let me take them? " asks her wisely.

"Go ahead, go to your mom and don’t you dare ask for these shoes." he says weakly while tapping her head.

"Okay, Dad." she moans before running away from the chain.

Leroy pays his attention again to the chain, he finds that Lenore’s turn has arrived and he leaves Aelan the barefoot.

"She has to close the safe." Aelan explains to her, handing the key to her brother. The latter is about to shut it to him, but his big sister stops him with a simple black look. "She, must close it." she repeats firmly.

The young brown does not complicate his life, he allows himself to make him hold the key while having the hand posed above his own. With this gesture, he raises his ears and freezes to the feeling of shivering, he swallows saliva with difficulty. What’s weird about taking the hand of a girl who has no family or professional ties to herself."he thinks secretly, giving his sister a look of permission. Aelan hands her the chest and Leroy hurries to close the chest, then he goes up on the platform and keeps the same young lady in his arms.

"Oh our alpha is gallant." thinks Jenny cheerfully at her sight, she mimes him a kiss, then turns to the pack." Tonight, the title of tempting roses is removed and replaced by that of daisy, symbol of purity and femininity. Ladies, tonight we declare you to be women, unique, complete, feminine, pure and free to choose your own destiny." She says loudly. She puts a white veil over the heads of these women.

Lenore beats lashes of surprise by being covered by a veil and slightly panics of the continuation. Suddenly, she feels herself standing and unconsciously clings to Leroy’s arm.

"You have to put on your shoes." explains the alpha while she remains motionless and fears any movement." Have I ever thought that a woman other than my sisters or daughter would put me at her feet. thinks sarcastically while leaning down to put on her white shoes while holding her hand to make sure she keeps balance. Done, what should the mentor do after that? " Straightened out, Leroy turns her head to Lenore, then smiles amused to see that the veil covers her head completely and prevents her from seeing properly. You’re still cute," he flatters her friendly. Naturally, he carries her back in his arms.

Lenore sighs slightly of fatigue and lets him carry her down the platform. Once on the ground, he notices that the monitors take two steps in the same direction as their protégés, then let go of their hand to regroup in the center.

"What mess did I get into? " He thinks by taking two steps forward, he looks for help and pretends to throw Lenore to the right to make her leave. She panics and quickly puts her hands on her face while Leroy catches up with her as quickly. Sorry," He says in embarrassment, looking at her intensely.

Some people lightly laugh at the alpha and find the situation funny as it turns to the stage and asks Jenny for help.

"We should show our appreciation to the gentleman who organized this evening as a tribute to these women Some applause." She makes a proud announcement by pointing to him with her hand.

The alpha stands up and takes a sharp breath.Then he admonishes his pack with a forced smile, although when he sees his betas laughing at him, he clenches his jaw and he flashes a lightning-bolt glance.

"It's adorable that he takes good care of his protégé." She announces before cheering him.

"Mine?..."

At these words, Leroy tightens up, he fades and widens his eyes, his heart races and he stares at Jenny intensely with confusion and surprise, he slightly frowns and lowers his gaze towards Lenore, wisely carried in position of usual submissive.
