Skyler's POV


    "Something less revealing and more comfortable please," I told Chloe as I shoved the dress back to her.

    "Seriously!" 

    "What?"

    She sighed and continue rummaging through her closet. Today, I'm going to meet the pack. To say I'm nervous is an understatement. Apparently I have to 'freshen up' in order to meet the pack. 

    "How about this one?" Chloe shoved a light blue top with ruffles and a pair of jeans at me. I smiled and walked into the bathroom to change.

    I came out and was immediately ushered to the chair. She applied some powder or whatever it is on my face. 

    The door opened and Josh poked his head in.

    "Five more minutes." 

    Chloe waved him off and continued with my face. 

    "Wanna take a peek?"

    "Sure..." 

    She dragged me across the room and turned me around to face the mirror. Damn... 

    "So...? Do you like it?"

    "Yes!" I yelled hugging her.

    She laughed. "Come on, the pack's waiting." 

    She dragged me out of the room, down the flight of stairs, and out the back door.  Everyone was already outside, milling about and chatting with their friends. Austin's pack is HUGE. It took over the clearing or yard and trust me, the yard is big enough to house a thousand elephants.

    Austin was standing with Josh and Luke. He's wearing a black t-shirt which defined his eight pack and a regular pair of jeans. 

Hot Snow purred.

We met each others' eyes and smiled. He walked over and looped his arms around my waist.

"You look beautiful,mate."

I blushed, "Thanks."

"You're beautiful when you blush."

If my face wasn't red before it's probably crimson red now. Luckily, no one noticed since they're too busy talking amongst themselves.

Apparently,we're having a barbecue or party. The delicious aroma wafted through the air. A middle age woman came up to me and grasped my hands.

"It's so good to finally meet you!" she said smiling.

I smiled back, "You too Ms..."

"Oh! Stop with the formalities! Call me Elise."

"It's great to meet you Elise!"

"So... you're my son's mate."

"Wait, you're Austin's..."

She chuckled and waved me off. "Yea yea, we don't have any features in common so it's hard to tell ... yada yada yada."

We talked for a few minutes before Chloe dragged me over to meet her other friend.

"This is Jerome, he's the only other 'guy'  friend Austin allows me to have," she says making air quotes around the word guy.

"Hi nice to meet you."

"My pleasure," he said smiling warmly at me.

"Lets go get food!" Claire said already dragging me towards the table packed with food.

"Umm... is she always like this?" I asked Jerome.

He chuckled, "When suddenly becoming a lunatic around food? Yes."

"HEY I'M NOT A LUNATIC!"

We laughed at her and made our way towards the table. Before I can grab a plate, a little boy ran up to me. He doesn't look that old from the looks of it, probably about nine or ten years old.

"Wassup luna?!"

"Hi there! What's your name?"

"I'm Jackson," he says smiling. 

"Well, do you need anything Jacky?"

He squealed at the nickname I gave him. Aww he's so adorable.

"Nope! Just talking to you." 

"Ok..."

He turned around as a group of kids called him. "I've gotta go luna. See you!" With that, he ran over to the group who's was bombarding him with questions. 

"Looks like you've made a new friend," Jerome said appearing behind me with a plate piled high with food.

Chloe appeared next to me, stuffing a hot dog in her mouth. I laughed.

"Was sho foony?" she asked.

"Nothing nothing..." 

She narrowed her eyes and continued eating. 

"So what do you like to do?" 

I shrugged, "Depends. You?"

"Depends," he said. "What are you? You don't smell like a werewolf..."

"That, meh friend, is for me to know and you to find out."

"Aw come on!" 

"Nope," I said popping the 'p'

***********

The party was great. Everyone was really nice and welcoming. The door to the room opened, and Austin walked in.

"So how was it, mate?"

I smiled, " It was fun!"

"Glad you like it."

Austin went to take a shower while I'm... who knows what I'm doing. He walked out a few minutes later with nothing but a towel. I stared as water droplets slowly slide down his skin.

"Enjoying the view?" he said raising an eyebrow and smirking. 

I narrowed my eyes, "Nope."

He walked forward until he's standing right in front of me. I gulped as I watched as he leaned down.

"Don't deny it, my little mate." he said, his voice husky. 

I could only stare. What do I do when there's a hot, sexy greek god in front of me?

Kiss him, duh Snow said. 

I ignored her as he started leaning down...
