Damian looks at me worried, he glances behind me and dips his head.
“Nina! We need to go over your birthday party on Friday as well as Holly’s.” Since we share the same birthday, we always have a party together. We are both looking forward to it since we get our wolves and get to possibly meet our mates!
“Yes Luna! I was thinking, since prom is the next day, why don’t we just do a little party before prom and then we can all head over to the dance after?”
“That sounds perfect dear, I will organize it for you!”
“Thanks mom!” Damian said to his mom. Luna is the sweetest person you will ever meet. Just standing over 5’4″ with a petite frame and long blonde hair, she was a beauty. She is where Damian got his blue eyes from. I don’t think she knows how to raise her voice at all. I watched Stephanie walk away, the Alpha is the scariest person I know. He is barely taller than Damian of solid muscle and is bald, he has this look that makes you squirm without even using his aura on you. How they even got paired together is beyond me.
“So will you go to prom with me Nina?” Damian asked, pulling me out of my train of thought.
“Took you long enough to ask, what if I already found a date?”
“Please, everyone knows you belong to me. No one would dare ask you without running it through me first.”
“Oh really, and what makes you think I belong to you?” I challenged.
“Don’t make me laugh, kitten. I claimed you when you were 5.”
“Yeah, well, we will see Friday, won’t we?”
“About that” Damian suddenly takes a step back and rubs his neck.
“What?”
“Dad has me going to a few meetings with alphas who have teens coming to the prom, so I will be busy Friday. I won’t get to see you till Saturday at your party.”
“What the fuck? Seriously? That’s perfect, how long have you known about this and didn’t tell me?” I feel my eyes burning with tears. I am beyond mad. That is the biggest thing I hate about myself. I cry when I am mad.
“I just found out, I swear! I am so sorry, Nina, I really wished we would have been able to figure out if we were mates before the party so we could decide on what was going to happen. I didn’t plan for this”. Damian looked at me pleading, begging for me to understand. The only thing I could think as I turned and walked away was this is the beginning of a very bad week.
I haven’t seen Damian all week with my own studies, finalizing all projects so I don’t have to go to school next week. I am in all advanced classes, and I have a feeling I will not want to go to school next week, so I busted my butt with Holly to get it all done.
“Are you excited about our birthdays tomorrow?” Holly squealed.
Rolling over in bed, I said “Hell yes! I am so excited about meeting my wolf! I wonder how big she will be, what color, what her name is.”
“Me too! I am so glad your parents let me stay over tonight. I am glad we get to share this together.”
“Well, we have been busting our asses all week so we didn’t have to go to school today and next week!”
Holly suddenly gets a serious look on her face, “what will you do if Damian is not your mate?” Holly knows my thoughts and fears. I tell her everything.
Sighing, I responded, “I honestly don’t know, let’s go to sleep, I have a feeling tomorrow will be a long day.”
“Wake up sleepy head!!!!!” I suddenly hear yelling in my head. Maybe I am still dreaming, “I am not a dream girl! WAKE UP!” I snap my eyes open and realize I got my wolf!
“OMG, what is your name, what color are you? I love you already!” I yelled. I was trying to lay still so I didn’t wake Holly up but I am so excited!
I hear her giggling, “My name is Raven, and you will see what color I am when we shift!”
“Damn, can I shift now?”
“So impatient, but yes you can, it will hurt really badly, but I will help you through it.” Raven said.
Very quietly, I got out of bed and tip toed down the stairs and went outside. “Okay now what?”
“Go into the woods, you might want to get naked and get comfortable,. It will take a while.”
30 minutes later, there was a fire burning through my body. I am biting my tongue to keep from yelling out and making my presence aware. Suddenly, I hear my bones start to snap. “RAVEN, what is happening?”
