Hi.

Thank you ellelelemenopi for this amazing cover! I love it so much!!

Anyways, here is chapter one. I posted this story on my Quotev account, Kiraangel82, just to let you know.

I opened my mouth hesitantly. I glanced at my dad giving him a pleading look, all he did was give me an apologetic shrug.

Sending him a quick glare, I looked back towards my mom. "I'm really sorry mom, but seriously, I'm just late by like 25 minutes. I had to grab my bag from the pack house," I explained, choosing my words carefully not wanting to make her even more mad.

My mom's facial expression didn't change. After a while she sighed, "Well, since you probably got held back at the pack house, I'll let it slide. But don't let it happen again. Now go get cleaned up and ready for dinner."

"Thank you mom," I beamed brightly at her before kissing her cheek and hugging my dad.

Walking past them I headed up the stairs and down the hall to my room. When I reached my white double-doors to my room. I swung one door open and entered. I smiled as I took in the bright sea green colored walls, my favorite color.

I threw my bag onto my bed while letting out a sigh as I sat down on my black desk chair. What was I supposed to do again?

I spun around childishly on my desk chair while trying to remember.

"Change, remember?" Irene stated in a 'duh' tone. Oh, yeah.

"Thanks," I muttered to her before heading to my closet. I changed into a pair of sweats and a T-shirt before heading out of the room.

After going down the stairs, I went into the dining room. My dad was placing a pan filled with my mom's famous homemade macaroni and cheese. A pack's favorite. My mom always makes it for when the pack has a cook-out.

"Sweetie, can you get the plates?" My mom asked as she walked in carrying a bowl of taco salad, another pack favorite.

"Ok, mom," I reply as I left the room. The dining room was right next to the kitchen. I walked into the kitchen and opened one of the cupboards that contained the plates. I grabbed enough for my mom, dad, my 10 year-old twin sisters Shelby and Zoey, my 14 year-old brother Andrew who in the process of his first shift which is going to happen pretty soon, and lastly one for me. Six plates in total.

Carefully, I took the plate tightly in my hands. Definitely don't want to drop them knowing my clumsy self.

"Ya don't say," Irene comments mockingly. I could feel her smirking in my head.

"Do you always have to comment?" I snap before blocking her out and continued to deliver the plates.

I place a plate in each spot. Ny dad usually sits at one end of the table and no one sits at the other end. The dinning table is supposed to fit 12 but obviously we only use 6 spots.

Once I finished I went to my usual spot between Shelby and Zoey who were chatting about some boys from school. They were talking about how cute they were and such. I'm guessing they were in our pack. But I could be wrong. The elementary school they attend was a werewolf school.

I chuckle before looking at Andrew who was awfully quiet. He had a goofy grin on his face and was texting away on his phone. I raised my eyebrow at him.

"Yo, little bro," I call out to him, "You're being quiet and whats with that stupid grin?" I question him while wiggling my eyebrows. I already know that grin all too well.

It was a girl he was texting.
Andrew looked up from his phone and glares at me before looking back down again.

"He's texting his all-time crush, Reagan," Shelby butted in with an evil smirk on her face. Andrews face reddens. "She's not my crush!" He immediately protested.

"Who's this crush you speak of?" My mom pipes up suddenly interested by the word 'crush'.

"Mom!" Andrew wines. He then glares at Shelby who smirks even wider.

Now it's Zoey's turn to speak, "Oh come on, Drew. I've walked by your bedroom and heard you moan out, "Oh, Reagan! Faster, Reagan! Yes, babe." She imitated Andrew.

I choked on my food as I heard what she said. I looked up from my plate and stared with my eyes wide.

Andrew's face was so red, you could probably cook some weenies by the heat radiating off his cheeks. My mom stared in complete horror while my dad tried not to laugh, as was Shelby and Zoey.

The room was silent for only a few moments until my mom finally broke out, "Andrew Zachary Davis! You are too young for this! I will not tolerate you releasing yourself because of some random girl. I don't care if your hormones start kicking in, learn to control it!" Her voice was stern while using her death glare at Andrew that we all know too well as well as the full name thing.

No one dared to say anything. That's basically how dinner went. Every now and then all of us, except mom, would sneak glances at Andrew and laughed silently.

I looked over at my dad who was trying to keep a straight face. After I finished eating I picked up my plate and took it to the kitchen to wash my dishes. I placed my plate in the sink along with my fork and turned the water on hot. I then heard someone walk into the kitchen.

"Hey, dad," I greeted when I saw him through the corner of my eye.

"Hey kiddo," he responded with a greet as well. "There will be a dinner tomorrow night with Alpha Parker, the alpha of the Lunar Shadow pack. The dinner will be held at the Alpha's house and our family as well as the Delta and his family will be attending.

"I shutter at the thought of being in the same room as Alpha Parker. At least I won't be alone because of Anthony.

"Ok, dad. Goodnight," I say as I place dishes in their correct places before heading up to my room.

After changing I climbed into my nice warm bed and picked up my phone. My brows furrowed when I noticed I had to texts.

Sarina -7:46 PM
Hey, girl! What's up?

Anthony -8:20 PM
I guess I'll see you at the dinner ;)

I first texted Sarina back.

Me -8:27 PM
Just finished dinner .

I waited a few minutes until my phone vibrated.

Sarina -8:31
Cool. So what's the plan for tomorrow? Isn't Alpha Parker from the Lunar Shadow Pack coming?

Me -8:32 PM
Yeah, I even have to attend a stupid dinner at the pack house and Alpha Parker will be there.

Sarina -8:34
Oh good luck, you'll need it.

I switched to Anthony's text and sent a reply to him.

Me -8:37
Poor me.

Anthony -8:39
You know you love me, babe.

Me -8:40
You wish.

I shut off my phone and decided that I should probably get some sleep. Tomorrow my pack has to prepare to meet the one and only Alpha Parker.

"Come on! You gotta pick something Jamie," Sarina groaned as I sat comfortably on my bed scrolling through my phone.

I didn't spare a glance at her, "I don't have anything good and why do I need to dress up?"

Sarina let out a sigh, "Because you are the Beta's daughter and maybe you'll meet your mate." That caused me to look up and scoff. I don't want a mate. I don't need a mate, especially one from the Lunar Shadow Pack. They have a pretty 'good' reputation I don't want to get involved with.

"Fine," I gave a defeated sigh and stood up walking over to my closet. I skimmed through my dresses and smiled when I spotted a sleeveless black dress. It wasn't too much.

I held it out to Sarina. Her face brightened as a huge grin grew on her face. "This is perfect!" She squealed and shoved me to the bathroom to change. I glanced at myself in the mirror before undressing . I slid on the dress over my head and it fit on nicely. The dress had fit on my curves nicely showing off my legs. Because of all the training I do, I have a strong body. I've been asked out numerous times but of course I deny them. I'm not exactly into dating or anything, but I have dated a few times. I'm not a virgin anymore and I regret it, but I can't take it back.

I looked at myself in the mirror once again and smiled at my reflection. My black straight hair just laid down my back. Turning towards the door, I opened it and exited.

Sarina turned to me and grinned, "You look sexy!" Every unmated male in both packs will be staring at you." My cheeks heated up at her comment, "Probably not." I laughed.

"They would, now let's do our hair and make up. I'll do yours and you do mine," she stated as she lead me back to my bathroom. She laid out all my different make up while I pulled out my curling wand and flat iron plugging them both in.

I took a seat on the stool sitting in front of my counter. Sarina then picked up the curling wand and started curling my hair.

When she was done, we switched spots so I could straighten her hair.

We applied our make up and smiled when we were finished.

"You look amazing!" Sarina cried out as she enveloped me in a hug.

"Thank you, Sari! You look beautiful as well," I grinned as I looked at Sarina. She smiled back before linking her arm with mine, "Let's get going, we can clean up later." By later, I think she means for me to clean up by myself when I realize its still there when I get ready for bed. Rolling my eyes I let out a chuckle.

I nodded my head so we exited my bathroom and out the door to the clearing where we usually have ceremonies, cook-outs, contests, parties, everything.

"Jamie, you look gorgeous!" my mom greeted me with a hug while my sisters were behind her wearing matching white dresses with big white flowers in their long raven black hair.

"Thanks, mom," I smiled as I hugged her back.

When my mom pulled away she looked around before looking back at me with a confused look, "Where's your brother?"

"Andrew? Probably avoiding us," I respond chuckling. My mom embarrasses him a lot and teases him when his friends are around. It's actually pretty hilarious if you ask me. I can just see myself doing that if I become a mom. I'll be one of those chill moms.

Zoey giggled, "Or...he could be flirting with Reagan." All of us turned to her and raised our eyebrows. She then lifted up her hand and pointed towards a random direction. My eyes followed the direction she was pointing in and let out a laugh. Andrew was leaning against a table next to girl about his age with nice dark skin and curly dark brown hair. She was pretty.

"Oh she's cute," my mom said randomly as all of us were staring.

"When's the Lunar Shadow Pack arriving?" Shelby asked curiously when my dad walked up to us. He wrapped an arm around my mom's waist and kissed her head. All three of us groaned at them. My parents both laughed before my dad answered Shelby's question.

"Soon, very soon."

I then felt Irene pacing back and forth in my head muttering words I couldn't understand.

The hell?

"Irene?" I questioned my wolf, "You alright?"

"Y-Yeah I think, I'm not sure," she muttered. I frowned. I wonder what's going on, maybe it'll just go by.

"Alright everyone, the Lunar Shadow Pack is about to arrive, the guards at the boundary just informed me that they have crossed onto our territory," Alpha Bryan announced. Everyone quickly checked themselves and smoothed out their clothes. Mothers attempted to fix up their children who protested.

My wolf was restless and was getting worse by the minute.

Sarina squeezed my hand before heading to her family. I then went to my own family.

"Jasmine," my dad called out my name. I turned to him and raised my eyebrow. "I want you to come to the front with me," he told me.

I furrowed my brows. "Isn't Andrew supposed to because he'll be the future Beta?" I questioned. I am the oldest, but I am a female and since I have a brother he will become the Beta. Now if I was the only daughter or I had no brother, I would become the Beta which rarely happens. Usually the Moon Goddess provides each family with Alpha, Beta, or Delta blood with at least one son who will take over their father's work. Sometimes on rare occasions, because of fate, that family won't get a son.

"Well, since he's not old enough, you will come up with me as the oldest, " my dad declared while placing a hand on my shoulder. Finally giving in, I nodded my head.

He smiled before guiding me to those who are high ranked. I smiled slightly when I noticed Anthony standing next to his father. At least I won't be alone.

I noticed the Alpha's son standing next to the Alpha. They were lined up at the front of the clearing next to the warriors who were on either side.

"Jamie, you look really pretty tonight," Anthony commented while flashing me his pearly whites.

"Thank you," I smiled, "You look great as well." His smile widened as he slung an arm over my shoulder. I immediately shrugged his arm off.

"Don't push it," I warned.

Anthony just laughed as I frowned.

"Behave young children," my dad chuckled. Anthony and I laughed at my dad before everyone grew quiet as we faintly heard pounded on the forest ground off in the distance.

They're almost here and my wolf hasn't settled down yet. An intoxicating scent blew past my nose as a nice breeze blew in the night.

The scent smelled like a mixture of firewood and Pine with a hind of cologne. Everyone in the clearing all shifted their gazes to the forest. My eyes widened when they settled on an extremely large firewood brown colored wolf.
