Chapter 7 ~ Savannah

1271 Words
Savannah Within 40 minutes I am showered and on my way to meet my brothers at my parent's room. I've washed and dried my hair and left it down, my natural brown curls hanging loosely down my back. I've gone with a thin-strap floral summer dress that comes just above my knees and hugs my curves quite well. I've paired that with brown strap sandals, a touch of mascara, and a dab of my favourite strawberry lip gloss, not that I ever wear much more makeup than this unless it's a special occasion. As I'm making my way down the hall to my parent's room all three of my brothers step out of their rooms at the same time, Logan's just about to knock on our parent's door when they both step out, they properly heard us coming. Werewolf hearing is incredible. "Hey guys, would you like to see the twin's nails? They really made an effort for dinner." I can see Noah holding in a laugh, oh dear looks like payback came quicker than I expected. "We didn't do anything, it was all Noah!" Logan is trying to look unimpressed while Levi is holding back a laugh, none of us takes the pranks seriously what's the point in that? "Come on guys let us see." I can't wait to see what he's done. They show us their nails and I'm done. Levi's nails are painted glitter pink while Logan's are glitter yellow, and I'm crying laughing along with my parents. "Looking very good boys, very Alpha-like." My Dad tries to cover his laugh with a cough but none of us are fooled. "Noah where did you even get the nail varnish from?" Mum is still laughing and unlike Dad, she isn't even trying to hide her amusement. "I bought it before we came, I knew they'd do something on the way and I wanted to be ready for payback." I bloody love this boy. Finally, we manage to stop laughing...well, for now anyway but they won't be living this down anytime soon. Noah will have more up his sleeve and I can't wait to see it play out. "Everyone ready?" Dad asks. We all nod yes and make our way to the dining hall to meet Alpha Creepy and all his pack members. My stomach is in knots and I've got a sickly feeling that something is going to happen tonight but I keep that to myself and carry on regardless. "How amazing would it be if any of us met our mates while here?" Levi sounds excited at the idea and it makes me smile. "Hopefully brother hopefully." Logan chimes in. "Chloe, what's wrong?" She's been acting strange since I woke up from my nap and she's got me slightly on edge. "I don't know Savannah, I feel like something's going to happen." "Ok well, we'll both keep a lookout and if you figure out what's happening with you please let me know?" "I will Savannah, I promise." she scurries to the back of my mind sulking to herself. We soon reach the bottom of the stairs to find Alpha Creepy and Beta Alex waiting for us. "Good evening Alpha Jake, Luna Sophia, and family." Alpha Jack greets us. "Your warriors and she-wolfs have all been seated ready for dinner but we personally wanted to escort you all to the dining hall, I hope this is ok?" His goddam creepy smile is back and I feel the familiar feeling of ugly Goosebumps surfing all over my body. I honestly don't see anything attractive in him. He's tall 6ft4 I'd say, with dirty blonde hair slicked back and dull green eyes that make me cringe. I don't see any tattoos on him but I do notice piercings, one in both ears, his eyebrow and bottom lip, they look gross and too much. I also notice he's not as big as Beta Alex, for a start, he's got less muscle which I find strange as he's Alpha surely he should be bigger and the strongest in the pack which I somehow don't think he is. "Thank you, Alpha Jack, Beta Alex. This is very kind of you." My Dad's showing his genuine smile towards Alpha Jack and I'm praying it's all a front, I'd hate for them to become good friends meaning we'd have to spend more time with him than absolutely necessary. My Dad's an intelligent man and a bloody good Alpha so surely he can see through this act just like I can? We make our way down the long passageway and pass a lounge room and kitchen along the way. The corridor is very simple and plain, the walls are painted off-white and a red carpet runs the whole length of the floor. We carry on making our way to the dinner hall when suddenly Chloe starts prancing around in my head her pace picking up more and more, she's making strange noises and seriously giving me a headache. What the hell is up with her? I'm about to ask her what's going on when I'm suddenly hit by that delicious smell again, strawberries and cinnamon but in the sweetest way possible and the closer we get to entering the hall the stronger the smell becomes. Chloe starts losing her s**t in my head and as much as I try and talk to her she's just not answering leaving me more than confused. I do my best to ignore her as we follow Alpha Creepy to our seats and everyone starts taking among themselves while we wait for the food to be brought in but It's hard to ignore her when she's acting like she is now. "I must say your nails are looking lovely tonight Levi, yours too Logan. I think it's really nice how much of an effort you made for dinner." Noah bellows out loud enough for the whole table to hear. I knew more was coming and I have a feeling that things are only going to get better. Everyone around the table starts checking out their nails, and one by one the laughing starts up. "So Savannah I am told that you are quite the fighter?" Alpha creepy drools at me across the table. Why does he have to speak to me? "Yes, she is actually the second-strongest female Warrior in my pack!" My dad proudly announces. "That is very impressive." He nods with his creepy smile. "Tell me Savannah, have you found your mate yet?" He seems intent on making conversation with me and whereas most girls would be honoured to have an Alpha talking to them, I can't stand it and it's taking all I have not to leave the table and head back to my room without any dinner. I reckon starvation has to be better than talking to him. However, I am an Alpha's daughter and I respect my Dad enough to try and at least play nice. I'm someone who always gives people a chance but there's just something about this guy that doesn't sit right with me. "Hmm... No, I haven't, but I only turned 18 four months ago so there's still plenty of time." I pray my answer is enough for him to shut up or at least just stop talking to me, he's about to say something else to me when Noah starts firing off questions to him about his pack and I've never been so relieved. Noah gives me a knowing look and I return it with a great full one. He's just saved my ass from more awkward questions, we both know that.
