Her Revenge Contract
Chapter 22

Xavier's POV

My driver brought the SUV to a stop, and the velvet opened the door and I got out. I nodded my head to the driver, and he left to pick up Kate.

Cameras flashed all around me, as the reporters took pictures of me and the arriving guests.

Greyson spotted me and rushed closer with Kelly at his side. He and Kelly arrived minutes before me, ensuring everyone who was undercover was in place.

"You do look charming," Greyson chuckled as soon as he reached me, "even if I have to say so myself..."

I ignored Greyson's comment and turned to his mate, and thanked her for arranging my suite.

"It is only a pleasure, Alpha," she said, smiling, "I just hope Ms. Kate liked the dress I ordered."

"I believe she accepted the dress," I answered, "and will wear it tonight..."

I hadn't seen the dress Kelly ordered for Kate. Greyson said it was a surprise, but he knew I would love the dress. I didn't have any other choice but to trust Greyson and his mate.

The cameras kept on flashing, and I growled under my breath. I usually avoid these kinds of functions.

I sighed, I felt more like a celebrity than a business owner as I walked down the red carpet toward the luxurious yacht.

A lot of reporters had gathered at the entrance of the yacht taking photos of everyone who entered.

John, surrounded by three bodyguards, stood at the entrance of the ship, greeting the guests as they embarked on the yacht.

"Look!" One of the reporters yelled out as they spotted me coming down the red carpet, "Isn't that Mr. Xavier Black from Black Umbrella Enterprises?"

Everyone turned, and raced toward me, pushing recorders in my face and asking questions.

Greyson took a step between me and the reporters and a few seconds later, my bodyguards moved between us, blocking the reporters.

"Thanks," I mind-linked Greyson.

"No problem..." he answered.

We moved as a group forward toward the entrance where John stood.

"Alpha Black," John greeted me, walking toward me and extending his hand, "Welcome..."

"Thank you for inviting me, Beta John," I answered, and shook his hand.

"It's only a pleasure," he said, and a girl standing a few feet away from us talking to a woman came running to his side.

"Daddy!" She yells excitedly like a small girl, "Aren't you going to introduce me?"

I scrunched my eyebrows together, recognizing her as John's only daughter, Erika, and my gaze moved over her features. She was blond with blue eyes, around 5'6, well-groomed, and wasn't an ugly girl. She was dressed in a navy blue ballgown and an expensive diamond set.

I internally chuckled.

"She looked like a Christmas tree," Ray commented, annoyed and growled. He didn't like this she-wolf.

"She is just spoiled..." I commented.

"Rotten..." Ray added.

"Yes," John answered his daughter and smiled at her. "Alpha Black, this is Erika, my daughter," he said and gestured between us, "my Angel, this is Alpha Xavier Black of Black Umbrella Enterprises." "Nice to meet you, Xavier," she greeted me and batted her eyelashes as she extended her hand for me to take.

"It's Alpha Xavier," I corrected coldly and ignored her hand.

That took her by surprise and her face whitened and froze in her spot shocked.

"If you would excuse me..." I said, yet John stopped me.

"Alpha Black, if you don't have a date for tonight, Erika is willing to keep you company..." John said, and Erika smiled up at me, batting her eyelashes at me again.

My gaze moved over her features, and I pulled my lips in a sneer.

"Beta John, I have no interest in your daughter!" I answered and walked toward Greyson, standing next to the entrance of the ship.

"Why isn't the driver here yet?" I mind-linked Greyson, impatiently.

"Not sure," he answered, "let me check..."

He pulled his phone out of his pocket and took a few steps away, leaving me with the bodyguards and Kelly.

It didn't take Greyson long, and he came back looking a bit annoyed.

"What's going on?" I asked.

"The driver will be here in five minutes," he answered.

"What was the reason for the delay..?" I asked, lifting an eyebrow.

I knew my driver well, and never before has he ever disappointed me.

"Someone locked Kate inside her room..." he answered.

"Oh? How did she get out?" I asked.

"She saw the driver enter the premises and... uhm distracted him," he answered and chuckled.

"Should I ask how she did it?"

"Well, she did throw a shoe at him..." Greyson answered.

Kelly gasped and her eyes widened, followed by a broad smile on her lips. "The new Luna has guts!" she commented.

"I

I guess the driver was surprised to see it was raining shoes?" I burst out laughing, replaceing the situation amusing.

"Clever girl!" Ray mused proudly, "Seems like Kate can replace ways to get herself out of sticky situations..."

"Yes," Greyson confirmed, chucking, "when Kate got the driver's attention she threw the house keys at him, and he opened the door for her..." Just then, a car came speeding in and everyone's focus shifted to the car.

That must be Kate!

The driver opened the passenger's door and helped Kate from the car.

"That's my cue," I said to Greyson and he nodded his head.

I rushed among the sea of people, followed by my bodyguards, and froze in my steps the second Kate came into view.

Everyone around me went silent as they watched the tension between us.

"F*ck!" I internally swore. Kate looked breathtaking.

Her hair was done in an updo with curls falling softly around her face.

Her makeup was applied beautifully, leaving her green eyes to pop out even more...

My gaze wandered down to her red lips, and my c*ck twitched as I internally moaned, remembering her mouth around my c*ck...

"F*ck!" Ray mused, making it hard for me to keep control over him.

My gaze wandered down Kate's perfectly toned body covered in a soft white lace dress. The dress had a low neckline, leaving a beautiful cleavage for me to admire, and a thigh-high split that had small golden butterflies embroidered at the bottom, showing her perfectly long tanned legs...

My gaze snapped back to Greyson where he and the bodyguards stood, him smiling like a Cheshire cate and watching me excited.

He knew how much I love women wearing lace...

My c*ck twitched and the bulge in my pants grew even harder... I swallowed hard as I closed the distance between me and Kate... taking her hands in mine and leaving a kiss on her knuckles.

A nervous giggle escaped her lips and she flushed.

"You look breathtaking!" I whispered as I pulled her closer, and she shivered at my touch.

"So do you..." she said, and licked her red lips...
