Alexander and Dela finished their dance, with a theatrical bow to the crowd surrounding them. Alaric pushed through the crowd, and Alexander met him halfway, signaling to the DJ to continue. Alexander gave him a huge smile at his choice of "Not My Time" by Three Doors Down.
He leaned close, so Alaric wouldn't have to yell to be heard over the werewolves, who were jostling them around as the music pumped them up. "We learned a lot. We need to have a meeting with Victor, now." Alaric told him. Alexander nodded, grabbing Della's hand and leading her to the group of humans who stood like sentinels in the corner of the room.
Jared joined them, and the four of them stood before the men, showing a united front, while trying not to appear intimidating. Alexander locked eyes with Victor again, offering a hopeful smile. He could see the confusion swirling in the tall man's dark eyes.
