Nico drank two cups of fresh pig blood and also enjoyed a huge variety of barbeque meat. There were even burgers in the midst. Like a hungry ghost, he devoured at least five of them.
"You can eat slowly you know..." Avery whispered whilst sipping his blood with poise.
"You don't know how tasty these are..." he mumbled, stuffing his mouth with a huge piece of the burger.
Avery looked at him weirdly and at Kiran who was copying Nico's behavior. "I can understand that it's tasty but you guys don't have to eat like a starved ghost,"
Nicolai and Kiran glanced at him at the same time. Shaking their heads they looked at each other. "They won't understand."
"I know, right," Kiran mumbled cutely, taking a bite of the burger. "Nico, are you going to win the hunt? Can you win against him..." he looked at Dylan who was looking their way.
"Why can't I win against him?"
Kiran suddenly snapped his head in his direction. "'he is huge. You are tiny,"
Nico gasped loudly. Swallowing the last piece of the buyer he glanced at him with an exaggerated look. "I am not tiny. He is the meat mountain. I have a swimmer's body okay. It's very healthy,"
Kiran glanced at them both. "Well, you are still tiny compared to him,"
Nico glanced at Dylan who was stifling a chuckle. "You just watch how I'm going to win against him. Kiran, don't underestimate my tiny size. Being big doesn't mean you are strong,"
Dylan raised his brow from the distance. He gestured that he was looking at them.
Nico showed him his middle finger.
Right when the clock struck twelve the party silenced down. And every wolf started to strip.
Nico and the vampire crew watched this completely shocked.
"What's going on?" Kiran whispered excitedly.
"Oh god," he closed both Elijah's and Kiran's eyes. "it's not appropriate for children's to view," he instantly glanced at Avery. "Close your eyes, kid,"
Avery pouted and closed his eyes.
Nicolai's eyes wandered through the crowd and focused on Darius. The young teenager was looking at half-naked Killian with his mouth agape.
"oh no, you don't. It's not happening buddy," he placed kiran's and Elijah's own hands-on their eyes. "Don't look until I say so,"
He rushed to Darius and closed his mouth and then his eyes. his blaming eyes fell on Killian.
"What? I didn't do anything..." Killian shrugged and winked.
Nico frowned. Glancing down, he noticed that Darius had removed his hand and was smirking up at the wolf. "No, no smirking or flirting before you are of age. And you, behave. You are not allowed to show your abs and tempt children,"' he tossed the shirt that was on the ground at his face.
Killian rolled his eyes. "Luna. This is a wolf pack and today is a full moon festival. I can't exactly shift with these clothes on me."
Nico looked at him with a dull glance. "You don't exactly tear through your clothes like in the movies buddy. Don't over-exaggerate. You guys probably turn to tiny wolves"
"but we ... sigh.. You'll understand in a while," Killian glanced back. "ah look, he is here,"
A half-naked Dylan walked up to this.
This time Nico was gaping his way.
Darius laughed and closed his eyes. "Follow your words, elder. No gaping or flirting before you are of age,"
Nico removed his hands. "I... I am a thousand years old.,"
"or so you say," Dylan moved closer. "Little teenage boy. Can't handle a little bit of exposed chest..."
Nico glanced around. As he had expected, a few of the female wolves and younger male wolves were glancing at his beloved with a different kind of look in their eyes.
"Shameless guy. Wear your shirt. I told you I don't encourage nudity," Nico did not want to embarrass himself again so he did not hide his beloved's body. Rather he continued glancing at his pecks.
Dylan placed a hand on his shoulders and leaned down. From his height, he was a head lower than him. "Nicolai... I told you, this body is only yours. So look all you want. Don't bother about other people's stares. Only you get to touch," he pulled his hand and placed it on his peck.
Under his heated sweaty skin, Nico felt a thudding heartbeat. It was fast and erratic and heated mating Dylan's heated look.
"Ahem! Ahem!"
Nico pulled his hand away. "Shameless. When is the hunt going to start?"
"Right now," Dylan glanced at the whole pack. "Everyone shift!"
In an instant, loud noises of cracking bones filled the entire clearing.
Nicolai backed away, getting closer to Darius. He had never once seen a werewolf shift before and never once seen their shifted form as well. Rue was his best friend but even her wolf form was a mystery to him.
Wolf form is only exposed to family or mates.
This display only proved that the pack saw them as family.
Nico took a deep breath and looked at the spot Dylan was standing. There stood a huge blond wolf as tall as five feet shaking its fur. Just close to him was a pure black wolf that was about four feet tall. The rest of the pack wolves were shorter. They were only about three feet in height. The shortest was about the size of a regular wolf.
The blond wolf commanded the attention of the crowd with its tall and majestic pasture.
Even Nico couldn't escape the attraction he felt towards the majestic wolf.
As if sensing him, the wolf glanced his way, showing off his clear blue eyes.
Nicolai took a deep breath.
The alpha wolf walked closer to him.
The rest of the wolves bowed down in submission as he walked close. Only the black wolf stood straight.
Getting close to his face, the wolf took a deep breath sniffing him. it nuzzled against his neck.
Nico stood there stiffly unable to do anything... his body could not move from this man's majestic control. He was tempted to show his neck to him and submit.
But the hand he was holding tightened. Darius behind him was slightly trembling in fear.
Nico opened his eyes instantly. He stepped back a bit. "Dylan... Wolfie, stand down. The young one is scared,"
Unexpectedly, the blond wolf sat down by his feet in a submissive posture.
Nico braced himself and finally touched his fur. "Good boy.."
The wolf threw his head back and howled in a cheerful tone. The rest of the wolves followed suit.
