The Last White Wolf
Chapter 6

After eating a delicious Greek salad with black olives and feta cheese, I found my backpack next to the bed. I went with my backpack into the connecting bathroom and took a long hot shower, washing my hair and cleaning myself. After a long cleansing shower, I dried myself with the soft white fluffy towel. I went into the walk-in closet and got dressed in the blood-red lace evening gown.

The gown fitted me like a glove. The bodice was covered with delicate lace and small red beading. The dress had a low-cut back with an illusion of red lace. The front of the dress was covered in red mesh lace covering my chest, discreetly revealing small parts of my skin and showing off my collar bones. The dress was fitted around my waist and hips, showing off my natural curves beautifully. And just above my knees, the dress puffed out a little with a red soft tulle bottom.

I applied light make-up to my face. Doing my eyes in a soft smokey eye and black winged eyeliner and a nude lip gloss on my lips. I dried my hair with the hairdryer in the bathroom. Braiding the front part of my hair and letting my curls hang loosely to the side of my head. I slipped on the black peep-toe stiletto high heels with sequins in the front. Just as I was done and satisfied with my look there was a knock on the door and Ares walked in.

My heart skipped a beat when I saw him. He stood frozen at the door with his jaw slightly dropped. Ares was dressed in a sharp-looking and well-fitted black suit and a blue tie, which made his eyes bluer.

“Thalia... wow... you look breathtakingly beautiful!” Ares said with a lustful smile, his eyes becoming darker as he closed the door and slowly moved towards me. Ares lovingly stroked my cheek, small sparks and tingles were created by his touch. In a normal situation, a girl would have felt frightened and scared if someone would have taken her, but I don’t know... I feel like a moth drawn towards the light and the light is him... All I want to do is stare into his icy blue eyes. I think I’m falling for him, and I hardly know him. It’s strange... I have never felt like this before...

I gently touched his cheek, creating tingles through my fingers and spreading a smile over his lips. I have never felt such an urge to kiss someone’s lips. I lean a bit towards him, he leaned forward his lips gently brushing mine, like he is asking for permission to kiss me. I tenderly kissed him. His tongue grazes my lips and he deepen our first kiss with his tongue slipping through my lips. Entering my mouth gently we stroked our tongues against each other. I placed my one hand on the back of his head tangling my fingers into his hair.

He placed his one hand on my lower back, pulling me closer into him. The very touch of him makes me quiver. Our first kiss has become more passionate by the minute. He slowly pulled away, resting his head against mine while breathing heavily.

“We should go downstairs for dinner before we get into trouble with my mother,” Ares said still smiling at me. I almost forgot I am meeting his family for the first time. I could feel how my cheeks are glowing. I gave Ares a nervous nod. He smirked at me taking my hand leading me out of the bedroom into the hallway. “Don’t worry άγγελος (angel), everything will be fine” he reassured me.

The house was magnificent and luxurious, with extortionate décor and antiques. We went down a curved staircase into the lobby, there was a huge golden statue of a wolf howling. He led me into the biggest dining room I have ever seen with a big long dark wood table and cream leather chairs.

The room went silent as all eyes were on us. I could feel how my cheeks are turning the same colour as my dress. Ares pulled me close to his side, letting everyone know that ‘I’m with him’.

A middle-aged man approached us. You can sense his dominance in the way he is walking. He strikes a resemblance towards Ares, he is a bit shorter than Ares, about 1.78m, he has hazel eyes and brown hair that is greying a bit on the sides. “Ares, αργήσατε! Η μητέρα σου είναι ήδη αναστατωμένη, ξέρεις πως γίνεται.” The man said to Ares. Ares frowned “.”

Ares’ POV

I have never felt this way before. When I walked through that door and saw how absolutely beautiful, she looked... she took my breath away. It felt like time stood still. And when she kissed me... I almost gave into Xylán’s commands to jump and mark her right then and there.

I could sense that she was very anxious about the fact that she is meeting my family. I’m also anxious. My family can be a bit overwhelming, especially my mother and Apollo.

We made our way downstairs into the dining room when my father made his way towards us, looking miserable like he always does at dinner time. He hates my mother’s ‘formal dinner parties’, that occurs every night.

“Ares. You are late! Your mother is already upset, you know how she gets” my father said. “I’m sorry father, I would like to introduce you to Thalia Lefkó, my mate. She only understands English” I informed my father in Greek. My father’s face changed into a smile. “Thalia I would like you to meet my father Zeus Lýkos, he is the previous Alpha of the Royal Silver Moon pack. Father this is my true mate Thalia” Zeus turned to Thalia taking her one hand “Ahhh! Finally, I get to meet my sons’ mysterious guest. Welcome my dear to the Royal Silver Moon pack. I trust my son here has been taking good care of you?” Thalia looked a bid astounded “It’s very nice to meet you. And yes, he has been a true gentleman.” I love her giggling! “Hmm, Lefkó? That sound so familiar...” “εδώ είσαι Ares (There you are)” my mother interrupted my father.

Thalia’s POV

Zeus was interrupted by a beautiful woman with long blonde hair, fair skin and icy blue eyes. She looked cold and emotionless, almost like a porcelain doll. She was wearing an off-the-shoulder navy floral embellished evening gown. The gown has a fitted shape with a flared end. Next to a woman was a young girl that looked like a younger version of the woman. The only difference is that the young girl looked warm and kind and she is smiling. She was wearing a baby pink gown with lace long-sleeved cropped top and a pink puffy tulle skirt.

Ares stiffened next to me when the woman spoke to him. He clearly didn’t like her.

“Mother, this is my mate, Thalia,” Ares said pulling me closer to him. “Thalia this is my mother Aphrodite and my little sister Athena” His mother’s face was clearly shocked when she learned that I was Ares’ mate. She didn’t look pleased with the news. “It is very nice to meet you, Thalia,” Athena said embracing me into a friendly hug. His mother on the other hand just stared at me, making me feel a bit uncomfortable. “Hmmm, she smells different” Athena pointed out. “Athena behave yourself in front of our guest!” Aphrodite hissed. “My apologies, mother”

Athena apologized immediately “Dinner will start now, it has been delayed long enough. And if it doesn’t make matters worse Apollo has refused to join us.” Aphrodite complained dramatically, waving her hands in front of her.

Everyone took their seats at the table and a three-course meal was served by the waiters. Dinner went by uneventful, at least the food was appetizing. After everyone was done eating Ares escorted me back to my room.

We walked into my room and Ares closed the door he pulled me into a tight hug. “I have to apologize for the uncomfortable dinner, my mother is a very strange person. I hope you are not offended by her?” Ares asked, “It’s fine... The dinner was at least delicious and as a bonus, I sat next to you” I answered him honestly. Ares pulled me into a passionate kiss, tingles and sparks moved through us. “Tomorrow it will just be you and me” he promised “Be ready at 7 am for breakfast, then I’m going to show you around.” he said, “I can’t wait!” I admitted.

“Goodnight άγγελος (angel)” “Goodnight Ares”. He gave me a goodnight kiss and left.

I got into my pyjamas, brushed my teeth and got into bed. I felt a bit lonely, not having Ares around me, but at least I am seeing him tomorrow. I can’t believe how things have changed in my life in the past day. I felt strangely comfortable with everything.
