Chapter 1088: Side story: date a dragon shifter
Raine just gave birth to their second child and Torak just threw a party for the little princess last night, thus almost all the members from nearby packs came to visit them.
After the great war ended, resulting in decreasing their numbers significantly, there were not many packs that were left. It would not be exaggerating to say that sixty percent of the total of the packs under Torak had been wiped off.
It was a great loss for them, but on the other side, they could coordinate with one another more efficiently, since there were not many of them.
Therefore, when last night Torak threw a party for his little daughter, almost all the representatives from every pack came and those people were just enough to be accommodated in this place.
Calleb, like usual, drawn himself away from the commotion, since it was a little bit overwhelming for him. He himself didn't know when he started to act this way.
At first, Calleb would hype the crowd, but then, when everybody was enjoying the party and talking with one another with such joyful faces, all of a sudden, Calleb would feel numb. He would feel empty inside.
And when that feeling came, he would draw himself away from the crowd to find a peaceful corner to will his sorrows away, since he knew the reason for him to feel that way.
Calleb stared at the crowd and watched as all the lycans that he knew, danced with their mates with a big warm smile on their lips, enjoying this moment, being happy for their Supreme Alpha and Luna.
However, here he was, trying to become invisible for everyone around. He didn't want to be recognized, until Bree came over and sat down beside him.
"What are you doing here? Alone?" Bree asked, she stared at the lycan beside her.
The little girl, who unexpectedly was a dragon shifter, now had grown up to be a beautiful woman. She looked beautiful in her purple dress and for this dress, she dyed her hair in the same color.
Belinda, who saw this girl's antiques, could only shake her head without knowing what to do with her, since she couldn't get angry at Bree.
Bree was a free soul. Just by looking at her, you could see the wildness and mischievousness that was swirling in her naughty eyes. Well, actually you could see it since she was only a child.
"Why don't you dance with me?" Bree asked Calleb and tugged his hand to stand up, but the Beta was too lazy to be parted with his comfortable sofa and his peaceful corner, so he shook his head and pulled his hand again, making Bree frown.
"Stop being sullen. You are spoiling the party mood," Bree chided. She looked like a mother, who was scolding her son for refusing to socialize with other people. "Now get up."
"Leave me alone Bree," Calleb said, irritated. Because Bree was being very noisy now. He wanted to be left alone.
Bree gave him a death stare that forced the Beta to grumble, but it was effective enough to make Calleb move his a** from the sofa and dance with her.
"See? This is not bad, right?" Bree said when she took Calleb to the middle of the crowd, with all the couples dancing around them.
"This is bad," Calleb was still grumbling, even when he spun Bree and caught her again. "What are you trying to do? I know you are up to something."
There was nothing romantic between them, since Calleb only saw Bree as his annoying little sister and the girl saw him the same way, a grumpy big brother.
Therefore, Calleb could say when Bree was being mischievous and had something brewing in her pretty little head.
Bree didn't answer him, but her eyes skimmed the room briefly and when she saw the person that she had been looking for, her eyes lit up and she asked Calleb to spin her again and danced very close to him, whispering to his ears, but said nothing.
"What are you doing?" Calleb asked in irritation, because Bree just blew some air into his ears. "Stop being annoying."
And only then Calleb saw Stephan entering the room and his eyes locked on the naughty girl in Calleb's arms, as something click in Calleb's head, finally realizing what Bree was trying to do.
"Silly girl, don't get me involved in your love story." Calleb knocked Bree's head lightly, but the girl rested her head on Calleb's shoulder instead, while staring at Stephan provocatively.
"I am upset because he canceled our date last time," Bree whispered back to Calleb.
"Yes, but whatever it was, it had nothing to do with me," Calleb replied, trying to pull away from Bree, but she hugged him even tighter.
"I just want to annoy him back," Bree said sullenly and Calleb rolled his eyes dramatically.
Meanwhile, from the entrance door, Stephan walked into the room and stood right beside Calleb, without saying anything, making the situation even more awkward for the Beta.
Oh please, he just needed some peaceful time and didn't want to get involved in this kind of argumentation between the couple.
"Can I have my girl back?" Stephan asked Calleb in a wry tone, as he glared at Bree, who didn't want to get separated from the Beta.
"Sure, you can have her all for yourself," Calleb immediately said and stepped back from Bree, indicating that Stephan could take her now.
However, the girl refused to dance with him and raised her chin when she walked out of the party dance floor, while saying. "Single like both of you can dance together."
"Single?" The corner of Stephan's mouth twitched when he heard that. "What do you mean by single? Aren't we in a relationship?" He frowned deeply. "What is the matter with her?" He then looked at Calleb.
"Don't ask me, I don't know." Calleb kneaded his temple. "Why don't you chase after her?"
Stephan then shuddered, "The last time I chased after her, she almost clawed me with her sharp claws."
Calleb chuckled when he heard that and shrugged his shoulders. "You are dating a dragon shifter after all."
