Jason walked into the grand hall and meet his father and Beta Nathan stood in the hall. "Good evening dad. I brought an antelope home." He informed and his father nod, while beta Nathan stared away from him. "You should've done more than that. Let's see if the moon goddess would eventually accept your sacrifice" Beta Nathan mocked but he wasn't angered by that. "You tried son. Go in and freshen up. The ordain will start immediately the night fall." "Okay father." Jason smirked to Beta Nathan as he knew the man still hated him because of the dismissed of Evan his son. He sighed and took the stairs as he didn't wanted to think about Ann in their presence. They weren't talking and he wondered what his father stood, previously discussing about with Beta Nathan. He walked up to the second floor and Penelope dragged out one of her boxes of clothes, and he smiled to her, knowing she was soon leaving their mansion to her mate new house. Her mate was previously living in his parent house, but as he has gotten his mate pregnant, the youth had built a new house for him and they were only awaiting his blessings, before they moved into their new house. He hasn't visited there. But he heard her mate was a good werewolf too. He wanted to ask her for some clothes, but he thought against it as that might raise her suspicion on what he wanted to use it to do. So he decided to give to Ann some of his clothes as the previous two clothes he had given to Ann, he stolen it when his sister washed it and sprayed it out to dry. And she even cursed the werewolf whom stole her clothes, not knowing he was the one. Arriving his sitting room door, he unlocked it and he could perceived the delicious scent of the human, creeping out from the door and he knew she was probably nearby or behind the corridor trying to unlock it and escape. He knew she was stubborn and he slowly locked his sitting room door quickly, grateful his mother nor sisters, hadn't followed him up to his sitting room. He thought it best to cajole Ava in accepting Tyler so she could leave as well, as she was the only one able to perceive the delicious human scent. He carefully locked the door and walked to the corridor door as they didn't wore slippers. He unlocked it carefully and as he pushed it opened, Ann immediately ran away thinking he was his sister. But he chased after her and caught her as he jumped and rolled with her on the floor and she screamed, "Arhh!." Thinking he wanted to bite her, but he immediately clasped her mouth shut, knowing his family might heard her. "Haven't I warned you to stop screaming?" He asked as his hot breath fanned her neck and Ann stared to his dark handsome face, so closer to her view. His corridor door was still opened, but he was so sure he had locked the main entrance which was his sitting room door as all the Windows were shut closed. "Hmm.." Ann struggled to get away from him, but his weight pressed on her and he continued to admired her face as he didn't knew how to kiss her. He was still covering her pink mouth with his right palm and he heard the knocking and banging on his sitting room door. "See what you caused. I guess you want to be used as the sacrifice for today's event?" He asked sarcastically and Ann shook her head as he still clasped her mouth closed. And she stared to him with pleading eyes. "Hmm.." Ann shook her head and he let go of her mouth and tuck her blonde hair strand behind her ears and stared to her face again. "Stand up. And go to your room now and don't dare to lock the door." He commanded and Ann stood up, hearing the loud banged on the door again, she immediately ran into her room and locked the door closed. Feeling her heart pounding loudly in her chest Jason stood up and he walked out from his corridor and locked it first, before he left to his sitting room door and pulled it opened and he saw Ava standing there and staring to him. And just then his mother and Penelope also climbed up the stairs. "What was that sound Jason?. We heard someone screamed?. Like a female's voice, was it from here?." Chloe asked first but Jason maintained an expressionless face and even his heart beating was normal and he shook his head. "No mother. Maybe the next building. You know a lot of those she-wolves are excited on finally moving into their mate's house from tonight." "Oh son. That's right" Chloe sighed as she breathed out in relieved but Ava sniffed, and she approached Jason and sniffed him as her fang grew out. "Ava!" Chloe immediately pulled Ava away from Jason as Jason's eyes narrowed at her. "What're you trying to do?" His mother scolded Ava, but her fangs were still out and she truly wanted to transformed again. "Mom, I can perceive the meat. Is scenting from Jason. Hmm, delicious.." Ava sniffed and his mother frowned to her while he still looked expressionless. "That's because he caught the antelope you saw outside and you couldn't even thanked him. Come, let's go downstairs now and prepare and give your brother the time to prepare. You can see he stinks of the meat, so come let's go." Ava frowned and her fang gradually returned back into her mouth and she stared away from him not arguing as she saw the antelope too. Penelope sighed and she stared to him lastly as his mother and Ava already left. "I just hope you find your mate this season and the curse isn't effective" He nodded in silence and Penelope turned and left him too. Jason finally breathed out in relief and he walked back into his sitting room and shut the door closed. He walked back into his room and towards Ann's room door but she had stubbornly locked it again.. He didn't even properly saw the cloth she was wearing, but hearing her screamed and running away, he knew it would attract his family attention and answering them was what mattered first. To avoid raising any suspicion. He walked to his wardrobe to select out a new cloth he would be wearing as he hardly washed his clothes and stripped the brown gown to take his bath. Washing himself thoroughly, he switched on the shower and stepped out and he stared to the almost empty basket of fruit that he knew was full when he had dropped it. Ann had stolen all the apple, pineapple and watermelon, leaving some bananas pils that she had eaten and also the coconut he had chosen for him. His brows furrowed as only the coconut was left in the basket, meaning she had taken all those fruit into her custody. He groaned and dressed up as the night had fallen and he didn't wanted to approach her, when they would obviously be going some prayers for him. To avoid annoying the moon goddess as he heard she was a jealous protector and he assumed she might sniffed the human's scent on him. Dressing up in another white gown, he walked towards his drawer to comb his long hair and to stared to his handsome dark reflection as the lantern were still on. He was thru. And he dropped the comb and walked out, locking all the door, including his chamber door, so she wouldn't have any access into his corridor as his room led to hers, and was different from his storage room. He walked out and went down for the festival. The female wolves danced happily in circles trying to entertain him and the rest of the elders seated. But he remained unmoving as he stared to them and admired some of them. They were all dark bronze. One by one, they brought him different flowers and gifts and placed it beside him, as they danced beautiful to his view. Emilia finally approached him and she brought a wrapper for him. He collected it and smiled to her and dropped it and so the young females that hadn't found their mate's yet did, until the midnight fell. Wise one Austin walked out, hitting his red rod to the ground and he recited some incantation as he walked up to the front where he sat, with the crowd of werewolves gathered, make way for Wise one Austin to passed. He remained unmoving as he sat in his white robe and wise one Austin approached. "The tattoo needed to be done first. Pick a spot and have them darwn it." He took off his white gown and he saw some of the females crushing and admiring his bicep but he wasn't smiling as they stood afar. "Where's the sacrifice made?" Wise one Austin asked and his family pointed to the Antelope.
