I should be your Beta, not your Mate

24 - Christmas party ends in a disaster

The days flew by and only after a few days my cold said goodbye. To the relief of everyone.

My little brother and Cassian were constantly worried and Cas treated me too carefully. He even refused to let me go back to the other after Fynn and Toby decided to put a stop at first to their sex life – or better said, they stopped fucking like rabbits on Viagra.

I didn't hate staying with him but his concern was annoying after some time. Even more because it was only a little cold and my voice didn't even get hoarse.

Well, I got really clingy and in need of cuddles but his concern kind of scared me off.

And now I couldn't wait anymore for the holidays and Christmas came.

The party would start in the evening, so in a few hours, the girls were already excited. All the time I could hear them squeaking and screaming that their hair wasn't ready and then that didn't fit and they didn't find another thing.

But their problem with clothing wasn't as bad as mine.

The principal from our school, who organizes the ball every year, wanted the band members of The Lycans to wear typical Christmas outfits. But our dear bassist didn't think of normal clothing. And because Ethan waited for such a request a long time, he finally could force us to wear a kind of Cosplay.

Flora would be the sexy Miss Santa Claus. Ethan would be the cute elf and now had boring brown hair instead of a colorful color – his original hair color. Jackson would pose as Rudolf with the red nose.

And I was the angel. Of course, with wings and a white suit obviously with white shoes too. And naturally the halo couldn't be left out.

Actually, I should have dressed up as Santa. But Leandra interfered and said that wouldn't fit me because of my seemingly angel voice and with that it got decided that I would be the angel.

Grim, I grabbed the bag in which my costume was and left my room to look for the others. And like I assumed, the guys sat in the living room on the couch and watched TV. Naturally, they were already finished with dressing. Typical.

As nice as Elli was, she lent us her van but we all still didn't fit in and that's why I and three of the others would walk. Cas car was still broken down and he drove with his parents.

A meow awoke my attention and as I looked down to my feet, I saw Coffee who snuggled herself against my legs.

»Hey, princess,« I said and lifted her into my arms and went to Genevieve's and Emily's room. The girls were gathered there.

»Girls?« Loudly, I knocked on the door and just a second later every single one of them asked me to come inside at the same time. Just open up a choir.

»You are ready?« I went inside and closed the door behind me. Coffee immediately jumped down from my arms and ran up to Witch where we started purring in joy.

»Almost. Ky, could you help me with the zipper?« Genevieve asked and turned her back to me and put her straight blond hair over her shoulders so it wouldn't get caught in the zipper.

»Sure.«

Carefully I pulled the zipper up and eyed her dress. It was a light blue and had a tight top with short sleeves – the shoulders were openly shown – and a tulle skirt.

Emi wore a white blouse with a black skirt that went to the half over her thighs. Her hair was put up in a loose bun.

Naika wore a skin-tight wine-red dress which went to her knees. I always thought such a dress would only look good in movies or flab would be seen but she looked quite good in it.
