Kapitel 61: Wolf Moon
-Tonight is actually a wolf moon so I wanted to add it to an chapter here you go.
While Quinneth is at Homecoming...
Alexander’s P.O.V.-
I look over the balcony at the people down below. Everyone is setting up chairs, tables and placing food on them. Tonight’s a full moon, let me be specific tonight's a wolf moon. We don’t celebrate all the full moons just the wolf moon.
Usually, I would be up for this type of event. Being able to eat good food and hang with friends, but I’ve been stuck in the house for almost a week. Not being able to shift or run in the woods because of the wolf that was on the loose and exposed themselves to humans. It wasn’t even our wolf so it doesn’t even concern us.
I’ve mostly been keeping busy by doing intern work, getting ahead on my Alpha studies and teaching my Level 1 class. Even with all that I’m still thinking about Quinneth all the freaking time. It’s been almost two weeks since I’ve seen her. I can’t go see her from afar because my father gave orders to let no one off the pack, not even him.
“Hey! Be careful with that took me hours to make it.” I hear Aren’s mother scream to some young boys who are caring a very large cake. If she wasn’t the Gamma, she would make a great baker for the pack. Every year she makes the best deserts whether It be a cake, cookies or brownies.
“Yes ma’am.” The boys say in unison.
“Dreaming about Anfran’s cake?” I hear someone say behind me. Turning around I’m greeted by my mother. Her dirty blonde hair is tied up in a bun as her reading glasses rest quietly on my head.
“Yeah, it’s been keeping me up at night.” I say sarcastically. She walks over to me clutching onto my arm, leaning her head on it.
“I don’t think that’s it. What’s wrong?” She asks.
“Just one of those things.” I say replying to her.
“This is about Quinneth Isn’t it? You’ve been working yourself to death, a little bit more than you already does. Now I know the real reason.” She lets go of my arm and gently turns me to her. “Your father is doing what is not only best for you, but for the pack. When you become Alpha and have children, they’re will be things that you do your child won’t necessarily agree with you on.” She says rubbing my arms.
“I know it’s just... did it have to be now.” I say letting out a chuckle.
“Yeah, honey it did. She’ll forgive you.”
“How? The only way she’ll forgive me is if I tell her the real reason I left.”
“Which you know you can’t do... right.” She says in a serious tone trying to focus her eyes on me so I know that I get the picture. I nod at her.
“Alpha, it’s time.” One of the pack members say.
“Alright, come on now. Don't want to keep the pack waiting.” We walk off the balcony, down the stairs to the backyard of the pack house.
Quinneth’s P.O.V.-
Walking into homecoming it feels and looks like I’m in a different Universe. Tables line the sides of the gym with all types of goodies. In the back theirs a photo booth, which has a long line of kids waiting to take pictures. On the ceiling their are all colors of streamers and ribbons hanging around, below it is color table clothes laying across it. The decoration committee did really well this year.
I look around the gym trying to find our table. Looking towards the back I see Lyra and the others sitting their stuff on the table. I nudge Lyle’s arm to get his attention, he's too busy looking around at all the decorations like I was.
“Let’s go sit our stuff at the table and we can go to the dance floor.” I lean into him yelling in his ear. The music is really loud in here, how do we not go deaf from this?
“Ok!” He yells back. We worm our way through the crowds of people until we reach our table. Mary and Andre are in the line at the photo booth, while Khadijah, Darren, Lyra and Jack all went to the buffet. So, the only ones that remain are me, Lyle and Kate. Beside me Kate Is sitting down playing best fiends on her phone. Suddenly, I feel a tugging at my arm. Looking to the person tugging my arm is Lyle. “Come on I want to dance, plus I really like this arm.” I see eagerness in his eyes. Carlos suddenly came down with a bug so he couldn't take her. he really did get sick around the wrong time.
“Ok hold on a minute.” I pat his arm as I turn to Kate.
“Hey Kate me and Lyle are going to go dance want to come?” I ask her. She shrugs her shoulders at me indicating a no.
“Are you sure?”
“Quinn Lyle’s your date I don’t think he would be keen on me lurking around.” Honestly I don't think Lyle would actually care he's such a chill guy.
“Alright, you can always change your mind.” We leave Kate alone at the table while me and Lyle go to the dance floor. This is the first year they actually got a real dance floor, color squares glow beneath our feet.
As soon as we get on the dance floor the song changes. “Time of Our Lives”, by Pitbull comes on.
“Yes, Quinn this is my song!” Lyle yells dancing around on the floor. Never would I have picked Lyle Bangyork to be a dancer. “Come on move your hips.” He puts his hands on my waist moving me from side to side.
Suddenly, a bunch of energy surged through my body. I think it’s the music, and the energy around me. I start to move my arms around, my legs and hips followed afterwards.
“Look at you, you’re a natural.” He says leaning into me.
“I’m secretly a dancer!” I scream back. He laughs at me as we continue dancing.
Couple minutes later...
“I WANT THE TIME OF MY LIFE... YEAH!”
“OH BABY OHHHH GIVE ME THE TIME OF MY LIFE.. HEY... HEY... HEY LET'S GET IT NOW!”
The music stops and everyone claps, including me and Lyle. I let my arms down, they ache under me. I have no idea how people can party all the time, it's so much fun but exhausting.
“Ok guys I’m going to take a break then I’ll be back cranking up the tunes.” The Dj says in the microphone. He walks off the stage towards the back.
Laughter fills the air around us as we walk off the dance floor. I fan my arms trying to shake the sweat off of me. Thank god I wore clinical strength or I would be smelling like dirty gym socks.
“Quinneth Worthingshire you amaze me.” Lyle says pulling me close.
“No, you amaze me. Why didn’t you tell me you could dance, that split you did was phenomenal?” I speak. He started a dance circle and did the split, I was surprised. For a second I thought we were in stomp the yard.
“Well, I have talent besides being able to file papers.” I roll my eyes at him.
“Hey I’m going to go get something to drink want one?” I ask.
“Yeah, I’ll be at the table.” We part ways. Walking over to the buffet table I grab two red cups and scoop up some fruit punch. Turning around I see Lyle sitting at the table conversating with Kate. This is the first smile I’ve seen on her face since we got here. I tilt my head to the side admiring them. I don’t know what they were laughing at, but whatever It was she was happy.
I walk over to the table, once I get near, they look up at me taking in my presence. I hand Myer’s his drink. “Thanks.” He speaks.
“You're welcome.” I sip my drink, while I’m doing that Lyle and Kate continued talking. I think there is something going on here... beyond friendship.
Looking up I see the DJ coming back to his booth. “In 1 minute, I will be breaking out the best tracks of 2020, better hurry up.” Everyone grabs their date running to the dance floor. “We also have a contest going on tonight, the best dancers of the night will win 500 dollars!” Even more couples get up rushing to find a spot on the floor. Some of them weren't even dancing before, it is true people will do anything for money.
Lyle turns around to me his eyes are bulged open, I forgot he likes money. “Come on Quinn we have to go.” He tugs at my arm. I look over to Kate, she’s back on her phone again. Maybe if I have some kind of accident she can go in my place. I did something that I will most likely soon regret.
I ‘accidently’ tip my red fruit punch all over my dress. “Oh, wow look what happened. I can’t go out on the dance floor, take Kate instead.” I say surprised. Kate looks up at me then Lyle.
“Uh no we can get you cleaned up in time.” She grabs some napkins and starts dapping the juice off my dress.
“30 more seconds!” The Dj yells out.
“No, there isn’t enough time go with Lyle I insist.” I look at her with a pleading look on my face.
“Fine, I’ll bring him back as soon as we are done.” She pulls Lyle by his hand to the dance floor. I sit at the table dabbing napkins on my dress while watching them dance. There is no way this juice is getting out of my dress. I throw the napkins on the table in defeat while watching Lyle and Kate. They dance around all erratically, wow they look so cute.
“Jesus what happened to your dress? You look a mess.” Lyra says cringing at my dress. 80 bucks down the drain, but it was worth it to see a smile on Kate's face.
“An accident.” I tell her.
“Your so clumsy.” She said ruffling my hair.
“Where’s Jack?”
“The bathroom, waiting in that long line he had to pee really bad. Is that punch?” I give her a nod. She picks it up and drinks the rest of the juice that wasn't staining on my dress.
“Help yourself.”
