- Ada beware! - Tase said and jumped up in sync with Timon to stop the glass. But it hit Ada and with a loud sound shattered into dozens of tiny pieces. Tase growled in anger and Izzy immediately checked Ada's head. Her eyes widened when there was no bleeding nor scar on he head.
- Are you okay?! - Izzy asked. And Tase was still growling making everyone in the dining room quiver in their seats.
- Perfectly! - Ada said and smiled at Tase.
- I'm fine Tase. - he took a deep breath and sat back down. The she-wolf who threw the pint glass looked at Ada with hate and jealousy in her gorgeous blue eyes. Her name was Lilly. She moved to the Winter Flower Pack despite of her father's pleads. Although, Tase wasn't her mate, Lilly was head over heels for him and did everything possible to catch his attention.
*- Well... Now she caught the Alpha's attention. - Ace chuckled in Timon's mind and he grinned at the comment. Timon glanced at his best friend and saw how Tase's eyes darkened with anger. His Alpha aura started to fill the room making people to turn their heads away or to stare at the ground under the pressure. Everyone felt it in the room, even Izzy, except the little lady with the waffle in her mouth. Adalinda looked around noticing the sudden silence and looked at Tase in confusion. As soon as he saw her big, unique eyes staring at him like a lost baby deer he smiled and the tension in the room lowered. Ada bit a big from her waffle and put the rest on the plate. She got up and wanted to walk to the she-wolf who attacked her. Izzy held her wrist.
- Let their Alpha handle this situation Linlin. - Izzy said and Adalinda's eyes jumped between her and Tase.
- What situation? I just wanted to give her, her glass back. - Izzy looked at the shattered glass on the floor and suddenly released Adalinda's hand. The glance in her eyes became rather chilly for a split second.
- She tried to hurt you, Adalinda. - Timon said and Adalinda giggled.
- Why would she do that? She doesn't even know me yet! It was probably an accident. - she stood up and walked to Lilly. Tase stood up to follow her, but Timon pulled him back down.
- Wait a little bit. I'm curious. - Tim said and before Tase could've complained Lilly started staring at the floor and her wolf whimpered in fear.
- What is going on there? - Tase asked and they kept staring at the two woman. Adalinda walked to the table where Lilly and her friends were sitting. She smiled sweetly at Lilly and said.
- Hi! I'm Adalinda, what's your name? - Lilly leaned back on her chair and checked Ada from head to toe before she scoffed.
- How dare a bug talk to me? - Ada tilted her head and Lilly's friends laughed at her "brilliance".
- What bug? - Ada asked. Lilly pointed at her.
- You filthy bug! You better get the f**k away from the Alpha before I end up hitting you! He is mine! - she snarled at Adalinda. She smiled and stung a piece of the shattered glass into the table. Ada stared into Lilly's blue eyes and her own eyes sparkled. A mischievous smile curved on Adalinda's face and she mind-linked Lilly.
I give you one chance to humble yourself in my presence. If you back up now, I'll kindly treat this as an accident. - Lilly's eyes widened in anger and surprise, she wanted to say something clever again, but Ada clicked her tongue. Soon their surroundings filled with Adalinda's scent, numbing Lilly's all senses. Neither she, nor her wolf could see, hear or say anything. She just whimpered and decided to submit to Adalinda. Her friends didn't notice anything from the whole scene and Ada's aura pulled back as fast as it appeared.
- It was really nice getting to know you Lilly. I hope to see you soon and don't worry! Accidents could happen to anyone. Am I right? - Lilly nodded and said.
- I'm sorry. - Ada pat her head and said in her mind before returning to their table. Good girl! Then, she walked back, took her seat and continued eating her dinner as if nothing happened.
- Linlin, what did you do to her? - Izzy asked when she looked behind and Lilly was pale as the wall. Adalinda looked at her friend confused.
- I just gave her the glass back and talked with her a bit.
- What did you two talk about? - Tase asked curiously. Lilly was an Alpha's daughter. She is a great warrior and a really stubborn and strong she-wolf. Seeing her getting this uncomfortable and submissive was spectacular. Adalinda shrugged.
- I told her not to worry, because accidents could happen to anyone. - Timon chuckled, and Tase held his head. Adalinda was definitely a unique little lady. He was more and more confident that she said these kind of things intentionally.
- Did you threaten her? - Izzy asked and Ada shook her head.
- How could I? - Ada asked innocently and continued her dinner. Tase kept looking her and the terrified Lilly. Later, after dinner, Lilly asked for a meeting with Tase. He agreed and asked Ada to stay in his room, hoping that she'll obey this time. He walked to his office, which was next to his suit connected by a huge, soundproof door. Just in case, he closed the door with key. His office was neat, with clear, modern furniture, white walls and dark wooden floor. The windows were made of a special glass, so no one could see what was going on in the Pack house from the outside. Soon he heard knocking from the office door.
- Come in! - he ordered and Lilly walked in with her head down. Her hands were clenched into fists.
- What do you need Lilly? It is late. - Tase said and Lilly looked around. Her eyes stopped on the door separating the suit from the office.
- Is it closed? - she asked and Tase raised an eyebrow, but nodded. Lilly hurried closer and whispered to Tase.
- Alpha, that woman you have as a friend here, is a monster!
- Do you care to elaborate that offense Lilly? - Tase asked growling. Poor Ada just found her way back to me and my normally open minded Pack is acting like a bunch of jerks.
- I've heard her talk in my mind Alpha! She isn't a werewolf, how could she do that?! She threatened me to humble myself in her presence because accidents like today's can happen to anyone! My life is in danger till she is here! Please Alpha, protect us! - she started begging and Tase felt her fear. Lilly was terrified, but Tase couldn't imagine the tiny Ada being aggressive or dangerous. He sighed.
- Lilly, do you know why I've named our Pack the Winter flower pack? - Tase and Lilly shook her head. He got up and leaned against the soundproof door. Tase took a deep breath to calm his mind feeling Ada's scent from the other room.
- I've met a girl, in my darkest hours in the middle of the snowstorm, after my whole Pack and family was massacred. I was dying myself from my injuries, and chased by the enemy. A tiny, fragile girl came to my rescue, she was like a gorgeous flower blooming in the most dangerous place. - Tase remembered while he talked to Lilly, about the first moment he met Ada. How her eyes sparkled in the snowy field scaring his enemies away somehow. In a serious tone he continued.
- The woman you are calling a monster, saved my and Beta Timon's lives when we were young. Also, she brought the Beta's mate with her and saved her life as well. As long as I'm alive I'll be grateful to her and she will have a home here in the Winter flower Pack, because I've named it after her. - Lilly looked at Tase in shock. How can he talk about her like that? I've never heard the Alpha talk so kindly about anyone!
- She is dangerous and manipulative! She acts all innocent and only the Goddess knows what she is in reality! You are putting your Pack in danger Alpha Tase and I won't stay here to watch it crumble! I'll go back to my father's Pack tomorrow. I came to warn you and tell you this.
- Great, he will be happy to have you back. Safe journey Lilly!-Tase said with a straight face and Lilly stormed out of the room. He sat at his desk and looked out of the window. What Lilly said would explain why she got so scared, but Ada as a dangerous creature?
- This is absurd isn't it? - he asked his wolf Titan.
"- Well... She is strange. And many weird things happened around her during the years.
- But she is a sweetheart!
" - The slow loris are cute as well... But you get too close to those big, puppy eyes and bamm you are dead meat! - Tase laughed.
- You are being paranoid!
" - Really? We will see. - Tase got up and stretched. Despite the few incidents, today was the day he had been waiting for ten years. He opened the door and walked back to his suit. Ada wasn't in the living room, he glanced out of the balcony, but she wasn't there either. Tase walked to his bathroom, but the lights were off and the door opened. He went to the bedroom and found Ada curled up on his bed and sleeping soundly. She even cooed a few times while asleep.
- How could she be dangerous? - Tase asked and Titan scoffed.
"- Woman can be dangerous in many ways.
