Pure disbelief coated the older woman's features. She stays in the Pack House with us." Riley surprised Angelina with the hint of protectiveness that lingered in her tone as she glared at the woman. "The Alpha was the one who invited her here Irene. Angelina knew instinctively that the woman was a hairs-breadth from stomping her foot on the ground like a tantrum riddled child. "You're hiding a Montgomery here? Does the Alpha know about this?" The woman demanded, infuriated. She couldn't ever remember meeting the woman. Those cerulean eyes darkened with instant loathing, it startled her. It was probably the only time she found an inkling of usefulness baring her cursed name. She could practically taste the bitterness from the aloof reception of the woman. Oh, so the woman did know the Montgomery name. Nice to meet you." She found some glimmer of satisfaction watching the woman's eyes flare wide with recognition. "Excuse me?" The woman exclaimed, clearly affronted.Īngelina sent Riley a look that hopefully portrayed the error of her ways before reluctantly facing the woman. Laughter bubbled in her throat, she barely kept it from bursting forth. It was only a beat later that Angelina realised she had spoken the words aloud. "And who do we have here? A human friend of yours?" She pointedly gestured to her. Irene perked a perfect brow, detecting the slight in the woman's voice. It's been a while." Riley responded happily although she sounded anything but. She was the definition of sweet and feminine. Now that she was paying attention, Tamsyn had a splash of golden freckles that decorated her cheeks. They shared the same stunning blue eyes the colour of mildew and strawberry blonde locks that fell in gentle cascades beyond the slight curve of their slim shoulders. Side by side, the older woman and healer looked like the 'before' and 'after' shots of each other. Beside her, Angelina caught sight of the Pack's Healer, Tamsyn, who appeared wary upon approach. "Oh Riley, it's nice to see you." The woman in front grinned coolly. She forced her wolf to calm, sensing their curiosity. Angelina could feel their nosy stares aimed at her. They instantly approached them with purpose. She heard Riley mutter a filthy curse as the women paused in their stride and spotted her. It appeared to be the perfect gathering minus the fancy tea party set. The moment Riley led her outside, they eventually encountered a gaggle of women who had been in the midst of talking amongst themselves, laughing. Maybe she was a little senile agreeing to go outside.
The Pack had been as friendly as she had expected and she wasn't expecting much of a nice reception.
