**Chapter 39**
**Elle’s POV**
I had always known that the Rayne Group’s headquarters were not situated in the quaint town of Moonshade Bay, but nothing could have truly prepared me for the grandeur that lay before me.
Rumors had circulated about the Rayne Group’s extraordinary achievements, but witnessing it firsthand transformed those tales into mere whispers of reality. This was not just a business; it was a colossal empire, and if it ever crumbled, it would take down Silverpeak City with it. A staggering third of the city’s residents—both humans and werewolves—were employed here, their livelihoods intricately tied to this monolithic institution.
I was so deeply ensnared in my swirling thoughts that I failed to notice Brad had walked a few paces ahead until he turned back, his gaze locking onto me, frozen in a state of astonishment.
“Are you coming?” he inquired, his voice softer than I had ever heard it.
I blinked rapidly, scrambling to find my voice. His expression shifted slightly as he approached me, extending his hand. When his warm fingers intertwined with mine, I caught a fleeting glimpse of him inhaling my scent, a gesture that sent a flutter through my chest.
“Let’s go,” he urged gently.
My eyes fell to our joined hands, a reminder of the role we were playing today. Right. We were supposed to be the devoted couple. I resisted the urge to withdraw, reminding myself that this was all part of the performance.
Brad guided me toward a private elevator adorned with the Alpha symbol—a striking wolf’s head embossed in shimmering gold. He placed his palm on a scanner, and the doors glided open without a sound.
“Wait,” I said as we stepped inside, my curiosity piqued. “Why are we meeting the German Alpha and Luna here, instead of Moonshade Bay?”
“We’re heading to the roof,” Brad replied, his tone casual.
“The roof? People actually meet guests on rooftops?” I couldn’t help but question, my nerves bubbling beneath the surface. The elevator continued its smooth ascent, and I nervously bit my lower lip. “Brad,” I murmured, “do you think Alpha Otto will look down on me because I’m human?”
He turned to face me, his eyes steady and reassuring. “Don’t fret about that. Otto is strict, but he respects the mate bond. His own Luna has some human ancestry.”
His words wrapped around me like a warm blanket, providing a sliver of comfort.
“Just be yourself,” he added, a hint of encouragement in his voice. “No one would dare disrespect you.”
I inhaled deeply, nodding in agreement, determined not to let my insecurities embarrass either of us.
When the elevator doors finally slid open, my jaw nearly dropped to the floor. The roof was not just a rooftop; it was a sprawling landing pad—no, an entire airfield. Three sleek private jets were already stationed there, gleaming under the sunlight.
“What the actual…” I trailed off, completely awestruck by the sheer scale of what lay before me. The people from my human community would never imagine such opulence existed.
Brad glanced down at me, clearly entertained by my astonished expression.
“Better wipe that drool before it drips,” he joked, a rare smile tugging at the corners of his mouth.
I instinctively raised my free hand to my mouth, only to remember that my fingers were still entwined with his. Suddenly, I became acutely aware of the fact that he hadn’t let go since we entered the building.
I attempted to pull my hand away, but his grip tightened just enough to keep me from escaping. With no other option, I shot him an annoyed glare and used my other hand to discreetly wipe at my perfectly dry lips.
“Very funny,” I muttered under my breath.
His smile widened, clearly reveling in my discomfort.
“They’re approaching,” Brad said suddenly, his demeanor shifting as he straightened up. “Stand ready.”
A wave of anxiety rushed through me, tightening my grip on his hand as my heart began to race. He glanced down at me, undoubtedly sensing the rapid thump of my heartbeat.
The sleek private jet touched down gracefully on the landing pad, and Brad led me forward to greet our guests. I forced my reluctant feet to follow, feeling as though they were made of lead.
Alpha Otto and Luna Ada appeared to be in their fifties, though I knew that werewolves aged differently than humans. They descended from the aircraft hand in hand, exuding an air of undeniable authority.
Brad greeted them in flawless German: “Alpha Otto, Luna Ada, willkommen auf dem Rayne-Territorium.”
I swallowed hard, my throat dry, and attempted the greeting I had practiced: “Hallo! Willkommen!” My accent was probably atrocious, but I had given it my best shot.
Luna Ada approached me first, her warm smile easing some of my tension. She enveloped me in a gentle embrace.
“Brad hat wirklich Glück, seine wahre Gefährtin zu finden,” she said warmly, her voice soothing. “Dein Duft ist sehr besonders, Kind.”
I had no clue what she had said, but I smiled politely, hoping my expression conveyed my gratitude.
Brad shook hands with Alpha Otto, and then they briefly touched necks in what I recognized as a traditional werewolf greeting. He exchanged a quick hug with Luna Ada before turning to introduce me.
“This is Elle, my mate,” he said in English, his tone filled with pride. “Her German is still a work in progress.”
“Willkommen,” I repeated, stumbling over the pronunciation once more.
“Will-KOMM-en,” Brad corrected me quietly, his voice barely above a whisper.
Alpha Otto and Luna Ada switched to English, their expressions friendly. “Brad’s mate is quite an interesting human,” Otto remarked, his gaze lingering on mine.
A wave of relief washed over me. “You speak English! Thank God,” I exclaimed, shooting Brad an accusatory look for not informing me earlier.
“I only learned German for three days,” I confessed sheepishly, the embarrassment creeping into my cheeks.
Luna Ada chuckled kindly. “Don’t worry, dear. I can help you with your German if you’d like.” She studied my eyes with a hint of curiosity, though she tried to mask it with a friendly demeanor.
We moved inside to a lavish reception room where human staff served an array of refreshments. While Brad and Alpha Otto conversed rapidly in German, I sat there, smiling politely, feeling like an outsider who understood nothing of their exchange.
Noticing my discomfort, Luna Ada turned to me. “Tell me about your hobby, Elle?”
“I enjoy cooking,” I replied sincerely, my passion shining through. “Especially for the people I care about. There’s something truly satisfying about watching someone enjoy a meal you’ve prepared.”
Though engaged in conversation with Otto, I could tell Brad was attentively monitoring my words. When he heard this, I noticed a shift in his expression as he recalled the spaghetti I had made for him.
“I imagine Brad must appreciate your cooking skills,” Luna Ada said, her tone warm and inviting.
“Absolutely,” Brad interjected smoothly, a hint of pride in his voice. “Elle’s cooking is quite special.”
I shot him a glare, remembering how he had once called my pasta “awful” before devouring two plates of it.
“In fact,” Brad continued, “Elle insisted on preparing a special meal at the office for Alpha Otto and Luna Ada’s rare American visit. I couldn’t refuse her.”
My eyes widened in shock. What was he talking about?
Alpha Otto and Luna Ada seemed delighted by this news. “Wonderful! We prefer simple gatherings. It would be our honor.”
Before I could voice my protest, Brad pulled me aside, leaning in close to whisper in my ear. His warm breath sent an involuntary shiver down my spine.
“I just got word that Luna Ada prefers steak. That shouldn’t be too difficult, right?”
I wanted to roll my eyes. Steak might sound simple, but what about the quality? The preparation? And I had never cooked in this building before!
Brad seemed to sense my rising anxiety. “Alex has already arranged for the finest cuts to be prepared. And Grandmother mentioned that if you perform well today, she might arrange for you to visit your family in the human community.”
My irritation evaporated instantly, replaced by a flicker of hope. I had been worried sick about Susan, wondering if she was being treated well in my absence.
I looked into Brad’s eyes, searching for any hint of deception. “You promise?”
“Remember to act like a proper mate,” he reminded me with a playful wink, his confidence reassuring me just a little.
Conclusion
As the meeting unfolded on the rooftop, a kaleidoscope of emotions washed over me, from anxiety to exhilaration. The grandeur of the Rayne Group and the presence of Alpha Otto and Luna Ada felt overwhelming, yet within this whirlwind, I found solace in Brad’s unwavering support.
