Freya's P.O.V Another hour went by after Cameron's group left the restaurant. Everything was going smoothly and I breathed a sigh of relief on making it to the end of my shift without causing any major trouble. The day was almost at its end and I was finally going to go home and rest. At this point, I wasn't even hungry anymore…I just wanted to sleep. I changed out of my work clothes and folded them neatly inside my locker. They should be good for another day and I'll be able to get them cleaned tomorrow so I can keep wearing them next week as well. But just as I exited the changing room, Roger was there to greet me and he didn't look happy at all. "Wh-what is it?" I asked him, looking up at his grim face. "One of our customers complained about your rude behaviour today." He got straight to the point. "And even though I know they are from the same school as you, I'll have to take disciplinary actions." My heart sank to the pit
Cameron's P.O.V This time, Sarah's laughter was mocking. "Seriously, Cam! Stop making excuses. We're wolves, not robots. We don't malfunction. Besides, Freya looks like a nice girl." But I shook my head once again. I didn't want it to be true, damnit! I didn't want Freya to turn out to be my mate! We were polar opposites! And to top it all off, she was human! What was the point of me having a human mate when I was the future Alpha? "Give it time, Cam." Sarah patted my shoulder as she stepped away, in preparation to leave. "Once you imprint on her, you'll forget everything else. Have patience and trust in the will of the Moon Goddess." With that, she left me standing outside the restaurant as she walked back towards the direction of the parking, probably hoping to catch the rest of the group before they left. I debated on following after her, but decided against it. I waited for Freya instead. 'Take Sarah with you guys.' I told
Freya's P.O.V Rummaging through the bottom bathroom cabinet in my room, I finally breathed a sigh of relief when I found the packet of cup noodles at the very back of the storage unit, right behind the sanitary napkins that I stored away. I wasn't just starving at this point, but my entire body was trembling in exhaustion and low blood sugar levels. I was shaking like a leaf as I searched the entire house for food that I had hidden in safe places, so that when my dad left after finishing up all of our resources, me and Julian would still have food to eat. Taking the carton out of the cabinet, I found that there were an entire pack of the noodles left. I think I had bought it from a sale last year, when the offer had been five noodles for $3. And I had taken it without questions. Now, I found the noodles still intact and much to my surprise, only a month shy of their expiry date. Thank you God for little mercies. I closed my eyes in a silent prayer before I got o
Cameron's P.O.V A knock on my door startled me into looking up from my phone and at my mother, who had just poked her head in through my door and was now giving me a sheepish smile. I frowned. "What is it?" The only times she smiled like that was when she wanted some kind of 'technological favor', with either her smart-phone or any other electrical appliances around the house, especially when my dad wasn't around. Or…when I got in trouble with my dad. That thought itself had my frown deepening because I hadn't done anything to get into trouble for. I had been getting good grades at school; been doing my regular training on time and I had aced the monthly soldier training test for the wolves that our pack held for teens. "Mom?" I asked when she remained silent. "Am I in trouble?" "Not really…" She hesitated as she entered my room, her blonde hair tied up into a tight bun and her fancy teal colored dress told me
Freya's P.O.V I watched the waves crashing onto the shore; the stormy winds sweep my hair back from my face violently. It was five thirty in the morning and the sun had yet to rise, but there was still light in the horizon and it was enough to help me see my way around the broken pieces of wood and other debris lying on the sand. This area of the sea-shore, at the back of my house wasn't a beach. I don't think it could ever be considered one with the amount of rubbish lying around. There were far too many rocks on the shore to make swimming almost impossible, but still, whenever I was feeling down, I would come here often, just so I could watch the sun bring new light into the world. But there was another thing that often drew me to this beach. Paw prints. They were all over the sand. At first glance, they would look like regular paws, puppy paws…unless you take into account the fact that we were in a rundown neighbourhood that didn't even have dogs to begin wit
Cameron's P.O.V "So, Cam?" Derek smirked at me from across the room. "Excited for the big eighteenth?" I raised my eyebrows at him in suspicion. What was he trying to pull? And why did he look so smug about it? It was only yesterday when I had reported Derek's behaviour to my dad and he had been summoned to the Alpha's office and now had to serve twenty hours in a month in the nursery, taking care of the newborns and the toddlers while their parents went out of the pack to work. It was the kind of job every teen detested and Derek should be sulking about the fact that he got selected for the duty…not smiling about it. "It's the day you find your mate!" Derek's smile only got bigger. "But we already know who it is, right? You guys probably already feel the mating bond." Sarah shifted in her seat uncomfortable, her brows furrowed as she turned to look at me. Her eyes held the same question that was already on my mind.
Freya's P.O.V Monday morning passed by like a breeze. With my lunch making attempt with Julian on Sunday still fresh in my mind, I went from class to class without getting into any trouble and actually found myself paying more attention in class that I usually did. My only hope had been that the rest of the day would pass by the same, without any problems or complaints from my teachers…but I guess the universe didn't want me to be happy or enjoy one single, peaceful day. "Freya, submit your work." Mr. Agnes called out to me at the end of class, five minutes before the bell rang. Startled, I looked around the room, feeling like everyone's eyes were on me. Everyone, except Cameron. He didn't even turn or smirk like the rest of his team. Ever since he paid a visit to the restaurant last week, he or any of his friends hadn't shown up again or even bothered to say anything to me, mean or otherwise. I should be happy…but I wasn't. "Freya!&qu
Cameron's P.O.V "Cam…I forgot my notebook in class," Sarah looked up at me through her long dark lashed, her eyes shining innocently. "Can you please go back and get it for me?" I narrowed my eyes at her. "What are you trying to do?" We were at the almost empty school's parking lot and Alex and the rest of the group had already headed back home in Alex's jeep. Sarah usually went to and from school with me, in my car, but this was the first time that she had ever asked me to go back and 'get' something for her, especially since she had an amazing memory and never really forgot anything behind…unless it was purposeful. "Me? I'm trying to get my notebook." She blinked her eyes oh-so-innocently, like I didn't understand her strategy. "Please? I'm tired. I went out for a really long run last night and my heels are aching…" I raised my eyebrows at her, not moving an inch from my spot. Sarah sighed, dropping
