Chapter 3: Chapter 3

"Happy Birthday, dear!"

I open up my eyes to find my mom and dad with my birthday cake.

"I love you," stretching out my arm, my mom put the cake on the nightstand before they hug me. "We love you too, dear," they both say at the same time.

I am my parent's only child and they both raise me with all their love.

"Your nana has also sent her love too, dear." I smile at the mention of my nana Gloria's name.

"Darling, make a wish." She brought back the cake.

Closing my eyes, I wish the moon goddess to give me a sibling. A brother would be perfect. I've always wanted a sibling to play and talk to. Sometimes I hint at my parents that I wanted another sibling but they are too busy with their work as top warriors of the pack that they don't get me at all or have a lot of time to themselves.

"Come down when you're ready and you still need to go to school." I groan lying back down on my bed while they each kissed me on the forehead and left the room.

Jumping out of bed, I quickly take a shower and change into my uniform. A skirt above the knees with a white long sleeve blouse. I grab my jacket and fetch my phone from my bed.

My eyes almost bulge out of their sockets when I open my phone, only to be welcome with a picture of two wolves in a most comprising way. Below the photo, it says, "Happy Birthday and makes sure to f… your mate when you find him." I clench my phone tighter, "that horny mother freak in," my wolf Alera says.

Finally, for the first time, she communicated with me meaning she's now matured and has mastered her sense.

"I can't wait to scent him." She beams with glee referring to our mate while I just remain silent.

My father after our bonding over breakfast drops me off at school. I was almost late so I didn't have time to meet with my friends. And even when it comes to lunch I have to be at our principal office for my interview at one of Daluna's Pack. A prestigious College founded by luna Elle.

Gia didn't need to go as her parents strictly reprimanded her from moving to other packs, while Cora wants to attend their own pack's College to get closer to Jem.

"Happy Birthday!"

My two best friends scream in excitement crushing me into a hug after school. I tighten my hold on Gia whispering, "you pervy." Laughing out loud she pulls away giving me an innocent look.

I turn to Cora, "I wanted to wish you a happy birthday with your parents but this one made me wait," she says while rolling her eyes at Gia.

"Yet, the best part, we're going to party tonight after dinner," Cora added with excitement.

"Hate to say this but I can't not tonight." they narrow their eyes in my way. "Umm blame my French and History teachers for having a test tomorrow."

"You can skip it." Gia intercepted.

"And then what? Do the inky only on the multiple choices section?" They both laugh at my remark.

"Okay, fine, Ms. Nerdy," Gia says

"Oh, shut up, you know I'm not one." I retort.

"Okay, but tell you it's your loss," she flips her hair. "Never." I put on a brave look but really I want to go to the party but damn these school tests.

Seven hours later and I lie on my bed doing nothing after my parents call to cancel our dinner, as the Alpha needed them both urgently for a meeting.

Now here I am replaying the scene of Anna from frozen annoying Elsa to wake up. Instead, it's me who annoys my poor wolf Alera to some nonsense jokes. "I hate that Alpha for canceling our dinner now I get to be the victim of your assault," she says dramatically.

I peek at my night watch, it's 11 pm and I haven't done any studies at all. "Good luck on failing." Alera jokes.

"Should have gone to that party." I groan at her instead.

My phone rang and saw Cora's name. Picking it up, I answer in the dullest voice. Yet, the voice was deep and hoarse telling me to go there and pick up my friends.

"Not good," I whisper to Alera jolting out of my bed and rushing outside to get in the car. All that matters right now are my friends’ safety. I know my dad is so gonna ground me for driving without any license but my friends needed me.

"Sorry, dad and mom." I kiss their photo in my locket before driving off.

When I arrive at the place, there was no sign of them in front of the house. Not until I drove at the corner of the road and found them both sitting on the footpath giggling to themselves, while some guys were watching over them.

Not too far from them is a female that I remember from our school leaning against a guy who is probably her boyfriend.

I park the car on the other side of the road and jump out. "Shit!" I cursed under my breath. "It’s freaking cold," I shudder running in their way. I guess being a werewolf doesn't give you all the benefits when you are in your human form.

The fear of these two being raped or murder makes me forget to bring a coat or even put on a jumper.

I quicken my steps going nearer to them then that enticing smell hits me. It was odd because I began to feel a little bit dizzy while Alera purr in excitement. As it grew stronger this time I felt like walking on clouds like I'm high from a drug.

I took a step closer to Cora and Gia and then breathed in that odd smell which now becomes intoxicated.

"Yummy," Alera lick her lips in my head. "What the fuck?" I scream at her in return.
