Mates? Every she-wolf dreams from a young age about meeting their mate. How magical it will be! To be loved unconditionally by the other half of your soul.
I'm Anita Bennett. I can't wait to find my mate. To be mates and loved. To start a family and be blissfully happy. I turned 18 one week ago, the ago a wolf hit maturity and can sense their mat if they are close. Some wolfs never meet their mates and some get a second chance mate if something happens to your first. Second chance mates are a blessing from the moon goddess. It's been a week and I haven't found my mate yet. Maybe my mate isn't in my pack, the crescent lake pack.
Something feels a little strange today. Like my body knows something eventful will happen. I'm restless. I need to get dressed and go downstairs to see my parents before I go to the football game with my friends.
I get up off my bed and shake my head to clear away my trailing thoughts. I walk to my closet and grab my favorite pair of skinny jeans a maroon dressy shirt and my black leather jacket. I walk to the mirror to do one last check. My long blonde hair is pulled into a high ponytail. My eyes are a striking shade of ice blue like my father's. My nose is strong and straight and I have high cheekbones. I'm 5 ft 7. I'm tall with curves in all the right places. I have a nice shapely but semi-flat stomach and size C boobs. I the spitting image of my mother Amy, except for my eyes. Those belong to my father Mark. We are just regular wolves, we are not ranked members of the pack. I look good! I grab my purse and head down the stairs. I find my mom and dad sitting on the couch looking like the happy couple they are GAG!
"Hey mom, hey dad," I say to them.
"Anita baby, where are you off to?" Mom asked.
" I'm off to the football game with Amanda and Stacy," I said
" oh, maybe you will see the visiting future alpha of the Blood Moon Pack. He is here visiting with the pack for the next 3 weeks." My dad says to me." I can't remember what his name is" he adds.
"Maybe dad maybe. I gotta run tho or I'm gonna be late and the game will start before I get there."
" ok baby, we love you and be safe," my mother tells me.
I'm out the door and in my Ford Fusion in a minute flat. I really don't want to be late. The girls will be mad. Amanda and Stacy are my best friends. We were all born within weeks of each other and have been friends since diapers in daycare. Amanda is an I ranked wolf like me but Stacy is the daughter of the pack Gamma. I lose myself in thought and find myself in the college field before I know it. I get out and the place is packed. Wolfs in human form is everywhere. I start making my way towards the table I always meet the girls next to our favorite lemonade stand. I am a little less than halfway there when my wolf perks up. "DO you smell that Anita?" My wolf Amara asks.
I slow down and take in a big lung full of air. " it smells like apples and cinnamon Amara. It must be from a food stand." I reply to her. I push the smell out of my thought and continues on my way to my friends. When I get there I see my girls chatting about something. I sit down next to Amanda and ask "what's up? What have I missed?"
"Have you seen the visiting future alpha of the Blood Moon Pack yet?"Stacy asks me.
" not yet but my dad said something about him possibly being here tonight"
"OMG Anita he is so Hot! We just saw him about 5 minutes before you got here. He was with Future Alpha Ryder. His name is Dimitri Vegas." Amanda says.
"I can't wait to see him then. We should grab our lemonade and make our way to our seats. The game will be starting any minute." I said
We get up get our drinks and find some seats. Too bad they are behind Ryders bitch sister Brittany. You know your average bitchy mean girl. Over entitled and spoiled always getting her way because she is the Alphas daughter.
"Who let the trash in," Brittany says. She has always had it out for me and I don't know why.
" shut up Brittany!" Stacy says.
Just then the teams run out on the field. We come here for something to do. I know nothing about football and have no interest in learning. The game starts and Brittany leaves is alone. We are past the first quarter and I need to pee. I tell the girls " I'm going to the bathroom I will be right back." I get up and start heading towards the bathroom. Then that smell from earlier apples and cinnamon hit me square in the face. It smells so good! I decide to follow it and round a corner and smack right into a strong chest. I take a deep breath and Amara starts going crazy! " MATE MATE MATE" she howls. I look up and see the most beautiful green eyes With little specks of holding them. "MATE," we both say together.
