Beauty And Her Beast

Chapter 14

Lydia's POV:

I found myself standing as soon as he did, that strange excitement finding itself within me again.

Except this time a little bit of nervousness managed to peek through.

If I was mated to these people's alpha then I couldn't imagine the expectations they may have already set.

Plus he mentioned looking for me for a long time... Did that mean that everyone else in this pack had been waiting as well?

Just for me to show up and not even be sure if this is something that I want to be a part of.

Was I overthinking this?

My thoughts must have shown themselves on my face judging by the light touch of his hand on my shoulder.

"There's no need to be nervous, I promise. These people know about your situation and want nothing more than to help you find yourself as one of us."

His touch and his soft voice worked in calming me per usual.

Although now that I knew why it was like that, it felt a bit different.

Still, when he drew back his hand and walked towards the door, I followed a step behind.

As we got closer, I began to hear the muffled chatter of a male followed by an assuring tone of a female.

Werewolves. More of them.

A whole pack of a species that I didn't even know existed until a few days ago.

I may have taken a single step closer towards Luka to reassure myself before he opened the door.

Two sets of eyes fell on me almost immediately, both being matched with smiles.

One being a softer one, while the other looked beyond excited.

The latter belonged to the girl, Eren if I remembered right, whose hair was the first thing that caught my attention.

The base color of it appeared to be a light blonde with random streaks of brown and dark grey that appeared in every way to be natural.

All of which was tied up nicely in a high ponytail with two curled tendrils of hair falling in front of her ears to frame her face.

With the limited knowledge that I had about the physical correlation between the human side and Wolf side, her's must be gorgeous.

Especially with her light green eyes mixed with those familiar flecks of gold.

I shifted my gaze over to my left towards the male, Milo.

His hair was an odd shade of grey, where if it was just a bit darker, I would easily consider it black.

Unlike Eren's, his hair was only half tied up, the part that wasn't just barely brushed his shoulder.

I quickly recognized him as the one I saw Luka walking with earlier, but was now close enough to see the eyes that were such an interesting shade of brown that they almost looked amber.

Despite Eren's smaller frame, they both looked to be well built.

A lot more well-built then the people I was used to, that's for sure.

Were all werewolves just insanely good looking?

If so then this Luna Goddess really outdid herself.

I've never felt the urge to compare myself show up so quickly, but I forced it away before it became a problem.

Instead, I straightened my back and mentally prepared myself for some small talk.
