We went downstairs and got in the car that was waiting for us.
It took half an hour to get to the pack and it was a little relief being here right now. Getting out of the snow for a little while.
It was still cold here, but we weren’t trudging through snow and harsh terrain around here.
As soon as we got to the packhouse, someone opened the door for us and we both got out.
We saw Alpha Xavier who was in his mid 50’s standing there with his mate, Luna Paris who only looked to be about 30.
“Gold digger.” I whispered to Zeke. And he smirked at me.
“Alpha Zeke. Alpha Bellamy. I’m so glad that you could make it.” Xavier said, shaking our hands.
“Of course. We wouldn’t have missed it for the world.” I said while Zeke just smiled.
“Let me introduce you to my children. This is Adam, Anya, Niko, Elle, Callie, Colin and Jude.” He introduced. And we both looked them over really carefully.
“I thought you had 8 children.” Zeke said.
“Oh yeah. The youngest one, Raven. Where is she?” Xavier asked, looking a little irritated at his other children.
“She was still getting ready. You know teenagers. They need everything to be perfect.” Adam said.
“Well, I’m sure she’ll be down soon.” Xavier said.
“Do you feel anything towards the daughters?” I mind linked Zeke.
“Nope. Thank the Goddess.” I linked back.
We went inside the marquee and we both got a glass of champagne each and we saw our pack members among all the others that were there.
There were so many people squeezed into these three marquee’s. I didn’t expect it to be such a big gathering.
I guess this guy really wanted to find his kids’ mates.
“Who knows, maybe we’ll still find our mate here. There’s a lot of people.” I said as we started walking around.
“Yeah. Maybe. But I’m not sensing anything just yet.” Zeke said.
“Me neither.” I said.
“Do you really care if we do?” Zeke asked.
“Not really. We’ve got too many other things to worry about right now.” I said.
“There you are.” Amari said, hooking her arm through Zeke’s.
“I didn’t know that you were chosen to come here.” Zeke said.
“Well, I thought it might be safer. Since all of your other ex-girlfriends are getting murdered and all.” She said.
I smirked at Zeke before walking off. Knowing how much this woman annoyed Zeke. Which was one of the reasons Zeke dumped her in the first place.
“Why don’t you go and mingle with everyone else. Who knows, tonight might be your lucky night where you find your mate.” Zeke said.
“I think I’d much rather be here with you. I will definitely be a lot safer.” Amari said.
“Or it could be a death sentence.” Zeke pointed out.
“I’ll take my chances.” She said, batting her eyes at him. But he just had to look away. She was trying way too hard.
It took him a couple of hours to finally lose her in the crowd and he found me again who was laughing with Noah and Leo. And he knew that it was at his expense. We always thought that it was really funny how he put up with her crap. And it was fun watching them now.
He grabbed another glass of champagne and he told us to kiss my ass. He didn’t care what we thought.
We saw Xavier standing up at the front where his table was with his kids and he was starting to look really irritated and he was talking to Adam like he was really mad.
We couldn’t hear what was going on but something had definitely happened to set him off.
“Hey, do you smell that?” I asked.
“Yeah.” Zeke said. And immediately, both of our heads snapped towards the opening of the marquee.
