The event was in full swing and the pack was loving it. Between the white lights wrapped around the trees and the music playing, it was a true party. Jaymus<i>loved</i>it. It was exactly the kind of thing he enjoyed these days and after he got the results back of the testing and found out he was going to be Gamma....well, this party felt just as much of a celebration for him as the new Alpha.<br/><br/>The drink in his hand was empty now, but he was holding it still as he joked with the wolves around him. They were congratulating him on his training results and Jaymus couldn't help but laugh. They were nice now, but when he was a teen training hard for this all they did was make fun of him. He didn't care too much about that now, though. Jaymus was moving on and looking forward to enjoying life.<br/><br/>The group around him thinned out and disappeared when the new Beta appeared at his side and Jaymus had to hold back a sigh. Was he hovering already? Sure, when they'd found out they were mates, he'd been surprised. Jaymus never considered the fact his mate might be from out of the pack but now it was fact and he'd have to deal with it. He wasn't ready to settle down and be in such a serious relationship. The fact that Preston was so<i>eager</i>had really thrown him off. Luckily, the man seemed to understand that Jaymus wasn't ready and kept his distance...sometimes.<br/><br/>Turning to him, he took the drink and sighed. "Thanks..." He sipped it and blinked. How did he know what his favorite drink was? "Yeah, it's a fun night. Everyone seems to love me now, so that's fun." He shrugged a bit and looked around the crowded back yard. He was eager for the run but hadn't even seen the new Alpha and Luna yet. He was certain they were around somewhere but the way people crowded around him made it hard to see past whatever face was shoved into his.<br/><br/>"Have you seen the Alpha yet?"
