"You'd be surprised. But even if you're right, what a way to die eh"  He looked her in the eyes for a second. "But I prefer women who come voluntarily."<br/><br/>As Tomas left, and Gwen cracked a joke about Tomas' apparent celibacy, Alex nearly snorted. "Damn Florida, that was harsh, but also, completely true." His voice was filled with genuine respect. He offered her the bottle of Tiswin. "Maria says I can't get too drunk, so want to help a fellow follow orders?" He wasn't one to follow orders usually, something that had got him into trouble quite often. But he had to admit Maria was right. He needed his head clear, to perform the ritual more so than for the swim. He'd swam the reservoir countless times. He looked over the crowd. A few dozen souls were gathered and most of them were getting into the festive spirit. Only a handful would join him at the reservoir, most of them would just get drunk here. Still, there would likely be quite a few high school kids there. He remembered one time Sienna and him had been running around in wolf form there. They changed back and got caught out by a group of high schoolers. Luckily the kids thought they'd come accross a couple of love birds skinny dipping.<br/><br/>Alex looked at Gwen. "I really hope you'll join us for the ritual. It's the first ritual I'll lead as alpha, and I'd really love for you to be a part of it."
