Exotic.

It was the one word Nixus used to sum up himself in the pack, nowadays. Others would call themselves ‘brave’ or ‘noble’ or ‘pure’ or some synonym of ‘strong’ but Nixus did not need any such delusions to describe himself. The turned werewolf was not one who had the luxury of being a braggart: he had fought tooth and nail in order to be anything more than ‘Thin-blood’ and even then, he still occasionally heard whispers of the derogatory title.

Mating season was an exciting time for the pack. Humans had no equivilant, so it was hard to aptly describe it However, the time was a mystical one for every one of the moon’s chosen sons. It was a time of celebration, and of honour and of status and, if you were skilled enough, of finding a mate and fucking her until she was full of your lineage.

Nixus had never been as intimately involved in a mating season as he was this year. The previous two years, he had not been considered good enough to mate with any of the females worth having. The pack had yet to induct any females who had been turned in a long time, meaning that most of the ‘Thin-bloods’ were doomed to being alone. Nixus was different though. Nixus had earned the right to be part of the celebrations through feats of strength and cunning and through proving himself a true part of the pack. This year, he would prove himself amongst the pack and take a woman for himself. When it came time for all the single male's to make known who they would being fighting for, his ambition demanded that he take the most extravagant prize he could: and that meant that he must set his heights high.

Valkyria. She was haughty and she was beautiful and, perhaps most important to Nixus, she was coveted. So many of the pack wanted Valkyria’s hand for their own; both for status and for lineage that they were willing to kill and die for it. Nixus saw Valkyria as his next step towards pack position. Her place as daughter of the current alpha would have elevate Nixus to a position in the pack that meant his blood would no longer be called into question.

It helped that she was an incredibly attractive prospect. He couldn’t help but smile at the prospect of having such a woman as his alone. The thought of monopolising her every curve or of taking those small, cherry petal lips against his or of feeling her soft skin underneath his fingers, caressing every inch of it with explorative fingers and hungry lips…

The night would begin the weeks of feasting and fighting, but Nixus refused to allow such dalliances to distract him from his purpose. He had awoken from slumber early that day: earier than nearly everyone else and had left the camp in a hurry. It was something habitual for Nixus: escape the camp early, roam around as the wolf, return at a time he might be needed.

Te young woman lifted her gaze from the book she had been reading all afternoon, dressed in a short skirt and a blouse though she knew her father would make her change before leaving to witness the young males of the pack demonstrating their power and trying to win over the females they wanted for the season. She'd always though it was barbaric and inefficient though she was in no place to do anything about it since she was not only a woman, but of breeding age as well. Sure, the men were sweet to her, though that was only because of who her father was and how much influence and power she would give them over the other wolves. Not to mention she was an exotic beauty with her deep red hair and lavender eyes among a group that consisted mostly of females with dark hair and dark eyes after living the lives that they had for so long. A soft sigh escaped between pale rose lips as she closed the book on her lap and looked out the window towards the grounds that which she would witness the pointless fighting and competition this year with a front row seat.

As a woman walked into the room she stood and set aside the volume, clearly planning on taking it with her, regardless of the threat of blood stains during the fights. It wasn't her book regardless and it wasn't her problem if it got blood on it. At least half the collection in the moderately sized library had some form of stain on it or another. She walked toward her and allowed herself to be led towards her dressing room where the dress was waiting for her. It was heavy, with soft silks and expensive velvet's that her father had commissioned made for her for this very day. He'd put off having her participate for the last two years because he had wanted only the best to remain for her then and now that she was at her prime mating age is was eager to find a suitable mate for her this year. Whoever it was would father a very strong son indeed.

It was hours later when they started to gather, many men and woman outside and ready to begin, several already showing off to those they coveted though many waited for the appearance of the crimson haired wonder. She walked from the house then, following the path to where she was going to sit and watch, passive and silent. Unimpressed and bored. She sat, crossing her legs beneath her dress and opened the book in her lap as several males called out to her and wished for her favor though she never handed the length of cloth to anyone. No one deserved it, because she liked no one in such an uncivilized and male dominated society. In the wild, women held the real power and yet here they were given away or taken like chattel to be bought and used for their own gains and pleasures. How could any of the girls here possibly enjoy this?

Nixus watched as the pack gathered in the dirt packed grove that sat some distance from the old hotel that served ad the packs home. Not many humans knew of the old hotel as it was miles from the main road and was last used by them in the early nineteen hundreds before the first world War. Even them this hotel was old, it was beautiful in its old charm. Luckily the alpha made sure that it was well kept, as young wolves going through the first change were notorious for destroying things.

Shaking his head, Nixus watched as the first females were "displayed". They were widows whose mates died the year or two years before. It was Anna and Marcy who were widows this year, Anna ' s mate died after getting cancer. A sad end considering wolves healed fast, and when they got cancer it was only a matter of time. Marcy's mate was shot by humans who were hunting in the area. She killed the hunters and left their wives their heads. So to put it plainly Marcy was a sick bitch, but strong.

A few males pledged to fight for mating rights for each of the first two females. Some of the males that pledged surprised him, as they had high enough rank to take some of the younger females. But then some were close friends with the dead males that they most likely thought it only right to take care of their friends mates.

Next came the new females of breeding age, one of which was a "thin-blood" a turned werewolf. Not many human females are bitten, so this gave a chance for the thin-blood males to have a chance of having a mate. But not Nixus, he was moving up the ranks and wanted only the best. Once all the young females had their pledges the Alpha stood up. All knew what he was going to say but they remained quiet out of respect for their leader.

"I know a great many of you seek to make my daughter their mate, and one of you will succeed in doing so." The Alpha paused as he looked over the pack. No doubt he could see some drifters that wanted a chance of making it big. "For all the pledges for the other females, a draw of first blood will be the rules. But for my daughter, only those of good quality will have her. So those that pledge to fight for her will be until death or until one asks for mercy."

Nixus could see that some of the males became uneasy at these rules, as draw of first blood had always been the norm. But they had to have know that Alpha and Beta young got different set of rules. When males of these high rank came to breeding age, females fight for them seeing that only the strong rule.

"Now who will pledge to fight for my daughter? ” the Alpha asked as he eyed the males, daring them to speak.

"I pledge to fight." Nixus said in a loud and confident voice as he smirked at Valkyria. There was a laugh that came behind him and he turned to see who it was.

"A thin blood? Really? My mother could whip you like the human you are." Said a large muscular mass whose name was fitting, Brutus. He got a laugh from the other males as they most likely doubted him too. Brutus smiled before lifting his hand, signaling that he was pledging. A few more pledged, mostly to intimidate Nixus, but that didn't faze him. If anything it gave him a chance to truly show off and prove that he was worthy of claiming the most Prized bitch in the pack.

He couldn't wait.

"Let's start with the feast the first fights start tomorrow." The Alpha said which made the pack cheer and start to head over to the back patio of the hotel where the feast would be held. Nixus didn't move right away as he took a moment to look over his prize before smirking and walking over to tell patio. He was going to win her, there was no doubt in his mind.

The young woman watched the men before her, quiet disdain on her elegant features as her soft lavender eyes turned to ice and glare at each and every male that chose to pledge for the women at all, instead of speaking with them they chose their women based on reputation, status and physical features. She found it abohorable and when her father called out it was her turn she lifted her chin and looked at them all as they called out. The upstart thin-blood called out first, looking at her with cocky smirk as the other much bigger male, Brutus laughed and called out his irritencec in the way of insulting the smaller male though the red haired beauty did little but what the encounter. It looked to her that several had only pledged for her because they thought she was pretty, or that taking her would win them the Alpha's favour though she knew that the moment she rejected him would be the time when her father would call down his rage upon the male who dared tried to touch her. It may be pack tradition, but if the girl wasn't happy then there was no reason for her to mate him.

She was the first of the woman to stand, though the last to enter, and as she stepped forward she was confronted with the group of males who'd spoken for her, Brutus at the head of the group that stood just below the dais she had been standing on. "What do you want Brutus." The young woman demanded, looking down at him with the lavender eyes that were so unlike the pack that they had earned her the nickname 'Flower Princess' though her hair had her called 'Flare' by some of the other, younger girls in the pack. She hadn't wanted this, and would much rather be living in human society but there wasn't a chance in Hell that she was going to get away from all of this, especially not with all of these hounds able and ready to track her down if she dared to leave. 'You're favour of course.' The male responded with a smirk and Valkyria promptly leaned over the rail to look at his, tucking her book beneath her arm as she used her hand to steady herself. He wouldn't have expected what she was going to do but it wouldn't be the first time either.

She slammed her fist into his face; once again, breaking his nose.

"I already told you; I'll give it to her who deserves it." And with that she stepped away from the group and began down the path that led toward the patio where several other pack members were already sitting down and getting ready to eat. This was a tradition she had only ever watched from the library window and hated to have to participate, but it was the will of her mother and she was never one to disobey her mother - not unless it came with indirectly disobeying her father. Walking with her chin up and her shoulders back, perfect posture, she marched directly up to Nixus and barely glanced at him. He was just another filthy pig of a male, with nothing about him that was any different. Thin-blood or not he acted like them enough that it didn't matter to her who his parentage was. "Pardon me." She said, attempting to pass the male on her way toward the patio, intending on getting there as quickly as possible so that she may speak with a few of the other girls before they sat down to eat - her away from them with her own parents.
