Alpha Adryan

Chapter 16: fourteen

Jade could hear the excitement, she could hear them murmuring, the packs all across the world

mingling together. She could feel them move about all around her. She was even able to detect the

heat of a few stares directed at herself.

"Why are they staring at me?" Jade asks Violet, startling her. Violet looks around them, indeed quite a

few of them were staring at Jade, a few she wolves with jealousy or envy in their eyes, or males with NôvelDrama.Org © content.

curiosity and lust portrayed on their faces.

"Maybe you're making all these woman jealous and look bad with your ethereal looks." Jade's mouth

drops open at Violet's words. She didn't know anyone would be envious of her, if only they knew the

fact that she couldn't even see herself for that matter.

Violet guides Jade towards where the table were situated at one side of the ball room, were a few

children, elders and mated couples were enjoying their wine, dining or just talking with each other.

"Here. Take a seat" she helps Jade sit.

"Thankyou" Jade thanks Violet.

"No worries, you wouldn't mind if I have a dance with my mate would you?!" Violets asks, making Jade

shake her head in denial.

"No, go ahead. Enjoy." Jade says.

"Are you sure Jade?" Violet hesitates.

"No, now go." Jade shoo's Violet.

"Okay thanks, you're the best" Violet grins "and oh, I picked you up a drink, it's just orange juice if

you're wondering".

Jade thanks Violet for the drink. Violet finally leaves to find her mate, not before promising Jade that

she'd be back soon.

She sips on her drink while listening to everyone mingle, and have a good time. She didn't know

anyone apart from Violet here that well.

"Do you have a name, or can I call you mine ?" Someone speaks up from infront of Jade, startling her

for a second.

"Excuse me?" Her eyebrows draw together in confusion.

"Somebody better call God, because he's missing an angel" the voice speaks up again. Jade blushes

at his words. She couldn't figure out why this random person was talking to her.

"Umm..can I help you?" Jade asks with confusion.

"Damn, no words have ever hurt me like yours just did." The stranger speaks up again this time with

sadness lacing his words.

"You really are that naive huh? Here I am trying to hit on you and you single handedly crushed my

heart into two pieces without even trying. God, what has my life come to." The voice exclaims

dramatically.

"I'm sorry" worry seeps into Jade's features thinking that she had hurt this man's feeling.

"Well, you can make it up to me by joining me on the dance floor" the voice says.

"I don't know how to dance" Jade felt bad for declining him, but she had never ever danced once in her

lifetime, unless she had a wish for breaking her neck or spinal cord that is.

"Oh, come on" the person grabs Jade's hands, pulling her towards the direction of the dance floor.

Oddly enough, she felt comfortable in this total strangers presence. He radiated warmth unlike some

people.

A slow song plays in the background, the stranger places one of his hands on her waist and the other

one takes her hand in his as the both sway side to side.

"Who are you?" Jade asks him out of curiosity, here she was dancing with a stranger whose name she

didn't even know in the first place.

"Ahhh, where are my manners. I'm Jacob Black, Alpha to The Deep Shallow Pack."

Jade's mouth drops open, now that she was aware about it she could feel the power he emitted, but it

wasn't too intimidating unlike Adryan's.

The Deep Shallow Pack was one of the unproblematic pack out there, they liked their calm and

peaceful nature, they didn't indulge in wars and petty fights over lands like other leaders.

Their pack was in that sense similar to The Evergreen Forest Pack, her old pack.

Jade could feel a lump forming in her throat at the thought of her old pack. There were moments were

her mind took back to memories of that night, almost like it wanted her to remember something but no

matter what, she couldn't put her hands on what it was really.

There was a motive behind why they attacked her pack, she knew that much. She also feared that it

was because of her, because of the secret she had been hiding all her life. Why would a pack of rogues

attack their pack otherwise?!.

"Hello Earth to.." Jacob's voice brings her back to the present. She also realized that she hadn't told

him her name yet.

"Jade. Jade Estrada." She tells him.

Estrada. Jacob's mind runs wild at the last name. It sounded familiar. He had heard that name before.

"Your parents wouldn't be Dominic Estrada and Claire Estrada by any chance?" He asks suddenly.

Jade's eyebrows scrunch together with confusion, how did he know her parent's?.

"Yes...how do you know my parents?" She asks him with caution.

"Oh wow, small world" his eyes widen in surprise "it's really you, well to answer your question my father

and your father were friends back in college and I've heard him speak about you and your family." He

answers.

Well Jade didn't know much people outside of her pack, people inside the pack knew her because she

was their Alpha's Daughter and the future Alpha.

Jade didn't socialize like normal wolves her age did, one because she was anti-social and the second

reason was that her being blind restricted her from going out and having fun, besides her parents were

extremely over protective over her.

"Can I?" A voice interrupts their socializing. Adryan wanted to dance with his mate, Vince kept nagging

at the back of his mind like a damn tape recorder.
