Saturday
Happy birthday to you, happy birthday little princess, happy birthday to you"my mom sang waking me up from the bed.
I am finally 18 years. I am finally legal,I am off age now. I can get into clubs now.
"Thank you mom"I smile at her, always honouring our birthday tradition.
That is waking up to a birthday song in bed.
"Blow your candle princess"she says and I take the little cupcake with the number 18 candle on top.
I blow it and she claps her hands excitedly.
"Now,freshen up and get ready,we have a lot to do today. Your sister is already done"she says and I nodded.
I freshen up and stood Infront of the mirror for a while while staring at my reflection.
Yep the changes happened immediately it stroke midnight this dawn.
My boob have become bigger than the actual size,my waist has become slimmer and I have grown a little bit taller.
I'll say 5'9.
Normal average werewolf height.
Wow I really look like a woman,I just hope I find my mate today.
'ofcourse we will' someone says and I got startled.
Who the fuck is that? Did Crystal get in my head again.
'no silly,I am your wolf' the soft female voice says again and I sigh in relief.
"Oh hello there wolf. I can't believe I am able to finally talk to you"I I say excited.
'me too.My name is Averia,but you can call me Ria"she says
"Nice to meet you Averia,I am Crystalise but you can me Lisa"I tell her and she wiggles her tail in excitement.
'we are going to have some fun today' she says and goes back to the back of my head.
I changed into a black denim jeans and brown off the shoulder top. I curl my hair and applied a little bit of make up.
I made my way downstairs for breakfast and we went to the mall for the day.
The entire day was is shopping and buying all kind off girlie stuff for the birthday celebration.
Our last stop was at the gown shop and I picked teb prettiest gown ever.
We then got our hair and nails done before going back home to set everything up.
By the time evening came, everything was ready and set.
I just got out for the shower,my dress hanging beautiful in my room, along with the family necklace,my phone suddenly rings.
I answer immediately I saw Tasha's name.
"Sup girl?"I say into the phone.
"Crystalise,I need your help. My car broke down in the middle of wood near the mall. Can you come and pick me up"she says worriedly.
Oh that place is dangerous.
"Okay,I'll be there in 15 minutes"I tell her and hang up.
I immediately put on a black romper and grabbed my car keys. Left through the window because mama would be pissed if I don't get to see the Alpha before the party.
Which I am going to miss by the way.
.
"Crystalise,where have you been?"my mom scolds looking at me and Tasha in anger.
"I went to pick up Tasha,mom. She was stranded. I am sorry"I tell her.
"You'll kill me one day. Hurry up and change, your sister already met the alpha but I haven't heard anything yet. You can join the party, you'll see him there"mom says and I nodded.
Tasha and mom took me upstairs and helped me dress.
My dress was a corset off the shoulder dress. I pair it with a sliver heels and matching jewelry.
"You look beautiful my darling. May the moon goddess bless you with a good mate"she blesses me.
"Thank you mother"I reply.
"Come on let's go and enjoy your party"Tasha say happily.
.
After all the rituals were done on the ceremony grounds the party begun and we begun mingling with the others.
My wolf has been giddy ever since we started mingling and I know something it up.
'mate! I can smell him! I can smell mate. Can we go to him" she says wiggling her tail
'Are you sure he is here" I asked
'yes? Now go to him!'she yells and I follow her directions.
The sweet scent of mint and wood feels my nostrils and I walk through the rose bush.
What would he be doing here?
I stopped when hear muffled voices.
"How can it be her! You have to reject her. I am the one for you. You love me!"someone cries.
Wait is the Crystal??
"I know,it isn't that easy but I'll do it. I love you and nothing else will come between us"the man whispers.
'mate is here. Follow the scent!'Ria yells at me.
As much as I want to know who my sister is talking to,I need to find my mate.
I walked around the bush and stopped in my tracks when I saw two people kissing.
'mate! That is mate! But....but... but mate is with another woman! Mate is hurting us' Ria says reflecting on our emotions.
"Mate!"I whisper my eyes beginning to glow bright yellow. Ria wants to come out.
"Mate!"a very well known voice says.
The couple broke apart and if I didn't want to faint before,I want to faint now.
Alpha Zander is my mate and he is kissing my sister!
I stepped back alittle as everything dawn to me. The rumors are true,it has been her.
It always has been her.
'mate is hurting us. I can't talk to mate's wolf. He is blocking us' Ria cries in my head.
"Why would you do this? How can you do this Crystal!What did I ever do to you"I yell, about to attack her but Zander was Infront of her within seconds protecting her.
He is choosing her over us.
"Stay down Crystalise. This has nothing to do with your sister. I am sorry you had find out this way"he says calmly.
"Okay,I am going forget everything, let's just go Alpha"I say simple, trying to control my anger.
"You don't get it Crystalise. I can't be with you,I am in love with Crystal and I plan on marrying her and making her my Luna"he says
"Wait what? What is that supposed to mean. I am your mate. You can't reject me Alpha,I might die"I say my eyes shining with tear.
Rejection is a shame and disgrace upon one's family and herself. It is also painful and given he is an alpha I might die.
"I am sorry but it is a risk I am willing to take"he says and I think I might die before the rejection.
"Why her? Am I not good enough for you"I whisper feeling Ria's wail.
"I am sorry but you are not the one for me."he says I know what he is about to do next.
"I am the one for you, the moon goddess chose me. Not her!"I cry,tears escading down my face.
"She chose wrongly"he says with finality.
"Please Alpha"
"I,Alpha Zander McLean ,reject you Crystalise Gun as my mate and Luna"he says
And I screamed as I felt something break from me. Ria wails in agony.
Then everything goes black.
I wake up with a splitting headache. What the heck happened?"Oh Crystalise,I am so glad you awake. You gave us a scare"mom says rushing to my side.She places a cup of water down and sat beside my bed."What happened?"I ask groggily."I don't know,Alpha Zander brought you in unconscious. He said he found you in the bush unresponsive. The doctor said it might be a rogue attack. I am just glad you are okay"she hugs me.Attacked?My bedroom door opens again, my eyes met hers and that is when everything started coming back.Crystal and Alpha Zander.They were kissing.Him chosing her over me.The rejection.Averia's pain.'Ria' I call out to her.'yeah' her weak voice responded.'what is wrong?Are you okay?' I asked worriedly'I am trying to be strong for us. I am dying by any minute. I need mate'she whimpers weakly.'he rejected us Ria' I almost yell at her. She whimpers in pain and retrieves to the back of my head."Oh Crystalise,I am so glad you are okay"Crystal says and rushes to cli
The next morning I catch up to talk to him before he left for their honeymoon."Alpha. I am not here to beg anymore. I just need one favor for my wolf. I need to talk to Atlas"I say and he nodded without a thought.Seconds later his eyes started glowing bright yellow, almost golden.'To what do I owe the pleasure?'he says his voice deep and thunderous.'I want know if you are aware of his rejection' I say.'Yes Little mate. I am already bonded to Sansa and I love her. I am sorry this had to happen. Tell Averia I am really sorry' he says and something in me dies.'okay. Can I speak to Zander now' I say and he nodded. Few seconds later Zander came back."Do you have your answer now"he says softly."Yes"I let out a breath and looked at him straight in the eyes."I, Crystalise Gun, accept your rejection"I say and he stumbles back a little.He looks at me in shock and surprise. As if he didn't expect me accept it.I turned and walked away from him and everything that has to do with him..
Ten Years LaterI walk into my kitchen,not my kitchen,I share it with my roommates Marcus.We live in a penthouse in the heart of Landon.He is also my best friend. He reminds me so much of Tasha.I wonder how she is now. How many children does have now?. Did she become the real estate agent she always wanted to be?Many thoughts but I shut it off. Thinking about the past brings nothing but pain.It is my past and that is where it will remain."Good morning princess"Marcus baritone voice says from behind me."Good morning prince charming. I am about to make breakfast. Pancakes?"I asked."Sure"he smiles and goes to the coffee machine.For a British man,he does love coffee more than tea."Are you ready for your biggest breakthrough?"he says"More that ready but a little nervous"I tell him."That is normal,I need to leave very early today to check out the place before the show starts. Everything has to be perfect,Gory must take the deal"he says with determination."Thank you so much. I d
I woke up extra early today because there was alot to do at work.Hiring and signing new models, photoshoots for Vogue magazine which came in yesterday.Many calls from new clients over seas and my new shop opening in France and Italy.Marcus was right,this was our biggest breakthrough and we needed to work hard to keep this going. Collen just started shooting a new blockbuster movie and thank God my designs were ready to be used.I took a shower and dressed in green summer dress and flats. We are in the middle of spring and the weather is a little bit chilly.I looked at the cloud from the glass walls and they looked dark and foggy, signaling it might rain at any moment from now.I stepped in to the kitchen to see Marcus already up sorting out some files and papers."Good morning prince charming"I kissed his cheeks and picked up my coffee."Morning princess. How was your sleep"he asks"The usual"I shrug and he sighsHe knows I didn't sleep a wink because of my nightmares.He about
Ever since my brother left my penthouse,I have been having this uneasy feeling inside me.It is as if I am being followed. For instance when i was on the red carpet with Marcus for our launching of new lingerie designs, one of the photographers looked so familiar.I could have sworn I met him somewhere but maybe it was just me being paranoid.Also there is always someone,an unknown figure lurking on our security camera.Marcus says I am just being paranoid but I am only being careful.My life has just started to get better,to get a better meaning and I don't want anything or anyone to hinder that.I can't afford losing myself again.Today is one of the days I take a walk around the block.It also signifies the 10th anniversary of losing my baby boy.People can call me awful or a bad mother but I am glad he left the world.I wouldn't have hated him,I would loved him so much, even tho he wasn't conceived in the right way,he was still my son,a part of me and I would have cherished him so
Immediately we passed through the pack boarders, every connection I broke when I left 10 years ago begin to reconnect."Wow,this isn't what I was expecting. This place is absolutely civil and looks like a mini town"Marcus says looking at the buildings in awe."What were you expecting?"I looked at him confusion."Well,trees and tree houses. Bushes. I don't know maybe caves"he shrugs."Marcus,you do know that we are also humans with supernatural powers. We have civilization,we live like humans we just can transform into wolves "I tell him and he nodded still paying attention to the city.I don't know how mama or papa will react,I just hope they are not mad at me.In my letter,I didn't give them details of what happened between Zander, Crystal and I.So they don't fully know why I left in the first place. I just pray they forgive me. Zack is still driving without looking behind him.Wait.....Something isn't adding up,if he is the beta of this pack then what happened to Darius.I make i
"mmmh...Mrs. Gun,your food is exquisite. Even better than Crystalise's"Marcus praises and I roll my eyes at him."Oh thank you. You are a gentleman and no one beats the original"mum gushes."Why are you two getting along so well"I mutter and Kenna chuckles beside me."So Crystalise,I heard you are a famous model now. Is it true?"Kenna asks curiously."Yes I am"I say with a proud smile."Not only a model,she is also now England's most successful model and designer"Marcus says proudly."I wouldn't say most successful but I wouldn't be where I am if it wasn't for you,my savior"I praise him."You know it was all you"he says and I could feel mom looking in between us with worry and curiosity."So how did you and Kaden meet Kenna"I ask diverting the question to her.She blushes and I know it was a romantic encounter."He actually saved me from my family"she sighs and I know it was romantic. It was more of hero and victim."Oh sorry for asking didn't mean to pry"I say"Don't worry,I am over
I was sent into the dungeon at the basement of the pack house.I was quiet the entire ride there.I can't believe papa would say that to me. After I told him what happened.I am dragged into the soltice dungeon,one of the cruel dungeon in this pack.Only rogues and vampires are brought here for torture. I am thrown inside by Zack,"The Alpha will be here, don't move"he sneers and then walks away away locking the doors.This place is really hot and there is only one window, one tiny small window.There are also silver chains glistening with wolves bane.A few seconds later the door thrust opened and Zander steps in.His eyes glowing in bright yellow and I know it is Atlas trying to come out."You need to let me go Zander. I have no business being here. My life and my career is at stake"I tell him.He chuckles darkly,"Oh you aren't going anywhere little mate. You are not allowed to leave me again"he voice is deep."Atlas, please,I am no longer your mate. I accepted your rejection,the
