Ezekiel
I don’t know what’s coming over me, but the urge to touch her is so strong as I shove one hand into the front pocket of my jeans while clenching my fingers around the tray. Stay cool, man. Breath out, breath in…Mm, her scent is so sweet like honey and vanilla cookies. F*ck! Dude, get your head in order. We can’t get involved with any girl and you know it! We’ll be leaving in a few weeks to complete the prophecy.
Sighing, I take my now calm hand out and grab three slices of pizza and let the cooks fill up my tray. “How are all of you this fine evening?” I asked them, feeling terrible they just cook and clean all day.
Each one looked up at me with huge smiles, “You're such a sweet young man! Thank you for asking, as we all seem to be doing great now.” An older woman cook says while giving me a wink.
“That’s great to hear, Darcy. Hope you have a wonderful rest of the day, ladies.” I tell them with a smile and a wink.
Hey, I know I need to stay away from teenage girls as I’ll be leaving. But like my good ole dads taught me, treat older women with respect and a touch of flirtation. As they most likely don’t get to hear pleasant conversation that often or get attention.
I know Darcy the longest, as she’s a cook in our pack building. Damien thought it would be best to try getting some shifters as cook at school so we can eat probably. Especially us Alpha’s, mom swears we eat her out of house and home. As all of us boys are Alphas, but Asher he’s a Beta. Heck, even three of my sisters are Alphas. Elisa, Stella, and Brielle. Lovey and Lulu are Beta’s, with Freya and Mile omega’s.
Giving them all one more wink, I rush to find Emily and Elisa. Wasn’t hard as I heard a few girls saying some nasty things.
“Who does she think she is?” A cheerleader said.
“I know, like why is she even at our table Elisa?” Diana said while pulling on Jackson’s arm.
“Well I see no reason for her not to be here, but if you two want to act like spoiled brats then we can find another spot. Right, Emily?” Elisa said as I just managed to get to the table, giving the two girls a look that made their eyes pop out of their heads.
“I believe it’s time to find a new spot. Let’s go, Emily.” I told her while picking her tray up.
She quickly listened as she stood by my side, her beautiful green eyes staring into mine with so much trust and respect. “Why don’t you pick a spot, I’ll follow.” I told her with my megawatt smile.
Her eyes sparkled as she stared up at me, her beautiful blimp lips forming a delicious smile. “Can we eat outside?” She looked down as if she asked a stupid question.
“Of course, what a brilliant idea.” I told her as I started following her out of the cafeteria and through the entrance doors. Finding a bench, Elisa sat down to her left so I swooped over to her right. Carefully handing her back her tray. Hmm, her tray is way too light.
Let’s give her some of ours!
My wolf howled as he rushed forward, stop, you'll scare her again I told him. “Look, I don’t want to be to forward Emily. But I would truly appreciate it if you’d help me eat some of this food on my tray. I seemed to have outdone myself by picking it all.” I told her with a sheepish smile.
“Sure.” She said with a breathtaking grin as a soft giggle escaped. F*ck! Why is she turning me on!
“Guys, why didn’t you tell us we’d be eating outside! I would’ve brought my jacket!” Mila said while rushing over and curling up to my right side.
“M, mom told you at the house to grab your coat. Why didn’t you listen?” I asked while chuckling.
“Because she wanted to look adorable for someone, duh.” Brielle said while plopping down on the ground at our feet with her tray.
“Please, don’t sit there. You can have my seat, you have such beautiful clothes. Don’t ruin them.” Emily said while standing up with her tray.
“Ok, you are too cute!! Can we bring her to the house? I wanna hangout tonight!” Elisa said while pulling Emily back down into her seat, not wanting her to move again I slipped my arm around her waist.
At first I thought I might have scared her as she began to shiver, but I think she was purring. Hmm, is she some type of wild cat shifter? “Well, well, I finally found my pack. You guys could have let me know you’d be outside. I was searching all over.” Liam said with his tray in his one hand as he sauntered over and took a seat by Brielle.
“I’m sorry that’s my fault, I should have picked a bigger spot to sit.” Emily told it while shrinking backwards against me, bringing me delight and displeasure all at once. Why is she always apologizing?
“And who might you be, beautiful?” Liam asked while giving her a wink.
“Liam, knock it off. We need to hurry up and eat before the bell rings.” I said with a growl.
“He’s right, we only have a few more minutes left.” Elisa agreed as she started digging into her food.
Sighing with relief I picked up a piece of pizza and started eating, slipping food here and there to Emily the whole time. Yes, I was getting looks from my family. They never saw me do this before, as I’ve never done this before.

Emily
I didn’t know if I should be jumping with joy as Zeke wrapped his hand around me or terrible as my last Alpha was terrible. But when the feeling of soft tingles happened everywhere he touched had me literally purring. Which is strange since I haven’t gotten my snow leopard yet, or even heard her. In our old pack, we’d start hearing them at the age of ten. But I felt nothing.
So to feel her purr gave me the greatest hope, finally it was time to eat as Liam was the last to arrive. I think they were actually waiting for him. He was the next Alpha as he’s the eldest male. I wonder how he’ll rule.
Taking my first bite, I felt like I became another person. The food was just so delicious as I finished my tray of food in seconds. Slightly sad I didn’t have any more, until a huge piece of pizza slid onto my plate.
Glancing up at Zeke, I gave him a smile before chowing down. This might sound bad, but the way Zeke acts I’d think he’d be the best Alpha to have ever ruled. He is the second eldest of the males, plus I feel this power rolling off him.
Lunch was perfect as Zeke kept giving me food after food until I was leaning against him, completely stuffed. Not knowing if it was the food high or his tingling touch but I felt safe as can be. I just hope it’s not too disrespectful.
Lifting my eyes, I land on another set of baby blues. Liam. He’s just staring at me, not with a rude look but with curiosity. “So the food is done, who are you?” He asked me, causing a growl to vibrate my entire body as Zeke said, “Liam, leave her alone.”
“I think we all need to know who she is, as she’s clearly your mate.” Brielle said while rolling her beautiful bluish white eyes.
