it's my party

As I speed away from the school I know I need to talk to someone about what to do about my mate. rejecting him will hurt both of us, it could even kill our wolves, and with that thought I have Sadie whimpering in my head. I promise Sadie, it's a last resort the moon goddess must have a plan. she doesn't make mistakes, she must see some potential in me, in him , or hell even us together, I'm not sure but who am I to question her will. I'm too scared to go home my father will be livid I ditched school and if I told him why I ditched who knows how he would react. what would my parents say when I told them I found my mate and his pack isn't even an hr away, I'm sure with just that news they would be thrilled but when I told them that it was none other than Brandon grey from the infamous Cresent moon pack, they'd have a damn heart attack. I could probably bring home a rouge as a mate and them have a better reaction than than if I brought home Brandon grey. no, I decided I can't tell them yet, my aunt Jana married her fated mate a rouge, his name is Riley and it didn't go over so well with my grandpa, Oliver good, the former alpha of the gold moon pack, but eventually when they realized that uncle Riley wasn't a threat but an asset to the pack they had him swear loyalty to the gold moon pack and everything has been good since. aunt Jana would be the perfect person to give me advice I think to myself as I change course to head in the direction of her and uncle Riley's cabin. what are you thinking over there Sarah finally speaks breaking my train of thought. I sigh I was so lost in my own mind that I forgot Sarah was even in the car with me. sorry chic, I apologize to her I was thinking about how I'm going to tell my parents about Brandon. dad is going to lose it, you know he hates the Cresent moon pack after what they did to my uncle drakes pack and territory. when they slaughtered him and most his pack before taking his my uncle drake's daughter as his chosen Luna, it must have been horrible in their pack cause Agatha killed herself a few days later, so being mated to Brandon is a curse, yes he's handsome, yes his muscles are super dreamy, I could touch and lick those muscles I begin to think before cutting myself off in my head. no, I can't have those kinds of thoughts about Brandon, this mate bond is already messing with me. I've got to talk to aunt Jana NOW. Sarah and I ride in silence for the next thirty mins before she speaks. so I take it with where we are that we are going to talk to your aunt Jana, that would be correct I reply to her and smile, thank you for doing this with me, you really are my best friend I couldn't do this alone.

Finally we pull up to my aunt's house and immediately we see my little cousin mika running around covered in mud in only his diaper, Mika is the cutest blend of both my aunt Jana with his black curls and green eyes and my uncle Riley with his giant dimples and the cutest little face with his little button nose, he definitely keeps both of his parents on his toes. my uncle greets me and sarah as he runs past chasing the mud covered toddler "hey vanny, hey Sarah your aunt is inside" and he takes off after Mika again. my aunt Jana comes out on to her giant wrap around porch upon hearing my uncle greet me. "now my my",she says what brings you ladies around our neck of the woods, I know your not just popping in for a visit when your supposed to be at your last day of school she scolds us, but as soon as she sees the look on my face she knows something is wrong, and Jana is like a second mother to me and is very protective, she goes into mama wolf mode immediately, " tell me who hurt you" she growls " I will rip them apart with my teeth. I giggled a little at her threat. aunt Jana is 4'9" which is very small even for a female werewolf but she sure has a temper and uses her small statue and her training to throw people off guard before she kicks their ass. I have no doubt in my mind that she would indeed ripp the limb from limb. Oh ain't Jana where do I begin I ask her rhetorically, so much has happened today I got my wolf. her name is Sadie and I was excited for my party, finding my mate and shifting for the first time, going on the pack run but now it's all ruined.

Aunt Jana gives me a sorrowful look, and I look down trying to keep the tears threatening to spill out of my eyes from pouring down like the thunderstorm I feel brewing inside of me. "oh, sweetie she starts, why is everything ruined what happened?" I begin to word vomit and tell her everything, I tell her how excited I was to finish my last day of school, how I woke up to my sweet wolf's voice in my head, and both Sadie and I were excited for our mate, shifting and pack run until I got to school and found out my mate is none other than Brandon grey, a wolf whose pack is hated and feared, how father and mother will never accept him as my mate even if I did want to accept him, which I wasn't even sure myself I wanted to do, I had never spoken one good word to him, we either ignored each other or we were having our about him bullying members from my pack. I inwardly groan as I realize I left school before it even started it was a requirement for graduation that I attend today, so now I may not graduate, and I basically kidnapped Sarah so now she may not graduate all because of me, mom and dad were probably worried sick if they had gotten a call from the principal telling them Sarah nor I showed up. I realize I should prolly send them a text at least so they know we are safe, I pull out my phone and shoot them a quick text telling them that I'm sorry if I worried them, Sarah and I are at aunt Jana's and I'll explain when I get home, also letting tem know we may need to find out if there is something Sarah and I can do to still graduate since we left when we weren't supposed to. I hear my phone go off and it's both my parents telling me thank you for the message and we'd talk when I got home. so, I ask aunt Jana what do you think I should do? should I reject him? should I give him a chance. I rest my face in my hands frustrated at my situation. why did it have to be Brandon grey. after venting to aunt Jana she advised I talk to my parents they are very supportive of fated mates and no they don't necessarily like the Cresent moon pack, their alpha or their dealings but if Brandon is my fated mate I might be surprised how much mom and dad would try to make things work if Brandon was also willing to try, after all she said, the goddess doesn't make mistakes. she shooed me off telling me to talk to my parents and I promised her I would before Sarah and I got in my car and headed back to the pack house.

Both my parents were waiting for me with worried expressions on my face as Sarah and I pulled up. hey savvy, my mother called me by the nickname only she had ever called me, it's not like you to skip school, why would you run off like that without calling us or letting anyone know? my father questioned me. I may be popular and an alpha's daughter but I'm also a giant nerd. I love school, I love learning, so for me to ditch the way I did today was very out of character and I knew that it probably scared a lot of people but especially my parents. mom, dad I said looking at them sadly, can we discuss this later i really need to get ready for the party right now and I'm already exhausted from everything today but I promise after the run I will tell you everything okay I asked hoping they would let it go for now and thank the goddess, they did. Mom started that she was only letting it go for now and giving me a soft smile before turning and walking away with my father.

Sarah and I ran up to my suite, we had both went shopping yesterday and picked a dress for the other. I had not seen mine and she had not seen hers. we pull the dress bags out of the closet and checked the names on the bag tag, I took my dress and went to "hers" bathroom and she took hers and went to the "his" bathroom for my suite. are you ready I yelled from my bathroom, and I heard Sarah yell back, yes are you. on the count of three I yelled back and we began counting together one.... two... three... we both stepped out of our bathrooms and faced each other Sarah looked gorgeous with her baby pink dress with Beading Sequins Sweetheart Organza Ball-Gown it matched her creamy white skin and strawberry blond curls, as I was looking at Sarah I failed to realize her reaction to seeing me in the gown she picked it was a red satin mermaid dress with a plunging neckline that came almost to my belly button exposing a massive amount of cleavage. Earth to Sarah, I said finally getting her out of her dazed state, is it too much does it show too much? I ask. no, not at all, she replied, it's perfect, your perfect. well then I said lets get this party started.
