After dinner, dad told Adriana to load the dishwasher because he wanted to talk to me. We sit down in the living room, and dad says, "Abby I know everyone has been asking you about your birthday, but we need to have a serious discussion about it. It's only a week away and some important things could happen and I want you to be fully prepared for it". Just then mom walks in. Dad tells her what he just said and mom kicks off her shoes, and sits down, "Okay. Let's talk".
Dad starts the discussion, "We all know that it's very possible that you could meet your mate that day and you need to be extra careful". I hold up a hand and interrupt, "Dad, I highly doubt that any of the guys in this pack are my mate. They are all royal assholes. None of them are interested in a mate who can defend herself. They want to be dominant instead of equals like you and mom. I won't settle for less than what you two have. Besides, I have my wolf training right after I graduate high school. I don't ha
Adam's POV I've been trying to catch Abby alone all day today. It's not like she's popular. The problem is just the opposite. Everyone has been ganging up on her harder this year than ever before. But it's not like I ever did anything about it before either. Combine that with Dina hanging all over me all day, and I didn't stand a chance. When I saw her rushing to get out of the building, I saw my chance. As I followed her out of the building, I kept getting this faint feeling that she may be my mate. To be honest, that's why I've been having sex with as many of these whores as I can. My wolf, Maximus, keeps telling me she's our mate, but I'm having a hard time figuring out if I want her. She never does anything about the bullying at school. I nee
Abby's POV "Well, ladies, you did well tonight." Beau says to Kayla and me. I start laughing, "I'd say we have officially hit badass fighter status. We both managed to knock the pack Gamma on his ass!" Kayla and I laugh as we high five. Beau shakes his head and laughs, "I guess you have. I'm really proud of both of you". I give him a big hug, "Thanks dad number two! You have no idea how much you and mom number two mean to me!" Then I turn to Kayla, "I gotta get home and shower. I feel like I smell like a wet goat!" Kayla scrunches her nose, "Your feeling would be correct". We both laugh as I walk out. I text my dad letting him know I'm on my way home. He hates it when he doesn't know when to expect me home. It's only two blocks, but he worries. Five minut
"Mom, if I have to wear a dress for my birthday, I would prefer this one" I say as I hold up a knee-length, off-shoulder black gown with sequined accents around the neckline. We have been arguing about the dress for 20 minutes. Every time I would try one on, one of us would gush over it while the other three would scrunch their noses. I was really getting tired of trying on dresses. Suddenly a saleslady comes over with a dress that is in a black garment bag, "Ladies! I have the perfect compromise for all of you! This gown has a little bit of everything each of you want. Plus, it's an original design by one of our employees. No one else has ever worn this dress!" Leah's eyes light up, "That's what is going to set her apart from every other young lady on Earth that day!" I roll my eyes and follow the saleslady to the dressing rooms. As she unlocks one of them, she hands me the dress and says, "This is the perfect compromise. It's floor length, so your mother will be ha
It has been four days since my shopping trip, and I am really starting to dread my birthday. I had a particularly hard day at school today. I managed to get supper fixed, then limped up to my room before my parents got home. I know I have some broken ribs and my leg is broken from being kicked and stomped on by Dina and her groupies. She kept saying something about me trying to take Adam from her. I tried telling her I don't want him, but she didn't believe me. I look in the mirror and my face is really bruised up too. One eye is swollen shut, my nose is broken, and my lip is split. Thank Goddess for werewolf healing. I should look normal by morning. I just need to stay away from my parents until morning. I change into a tank top and shorts and sit at my desk to do some homework when my phone vibrates. It's Kayla: K: How are you feeling? M: Hurting like hell, but I should be better by morning. K: I told dad you wouldn't be able t
I wake up at 6am, on my own, wondering why my mom didn't wake me up before she went to work. I smell the air in myroom,and it smells like someone has been in here. Specifically, it smells like Adam's scent. But why would he be in here? It makes no sense at all. I go to stretch and feel a pain in my ribs. I guess those aren't completely healed yet. Maybe I should think about staying home from school today so I can at least start my birthday injury-free. I walk downstairs and find my parents in the kitchen drinking coffee. I look at them with a confused look. Might as well tell them about my suspicions. "Morning," I start as I pour a cup of coffee, "I had a reallyweirdnight last night. I woke up about an hour after going to bed last night after I thought I heard a few camera clicks
Adam POV I woke up this morning to a text from Dina wanting me to take her to school this morning. I told her I was walking and tossed my phone. Then the mindlink started, "But Alpha, I really want to talk to you today," she whined. "Dina, if you can't fucking talk like a fucking adult, leave me alone. It's too early to listen to you whine". That was all I heard from her and I was glad for it. I picked up my phone again and pulled up th
Abby's POV Kayla and I went to my room while our parents talked for most of the morning. We just talked about the upcoming fight and my birthday tomorrow until I receive a text from Adam.
I imagine you're asking how there is a clearing in the middle of a big city. Actually, it's not a real clearing. It's a spot in a local park where the local police department knows we do things like this. When our pack lets them know, they block it off so that no humans are allowed to go there. It's usually an area where human druggies go to get high, so they normally dismiss it as a bad trip if they stumble upon us. It's another safety issue for both us and the humans. After we eat, Kayla and I change into our matching butterfly leggings and black sports bras and do some warm-ups. At 5:30, we head over to the clearing and there is already a huge crowd forming. I start to get nervous and dad notices. He puts a hand on my shoulder, "This is what we've trained so hard for. If that girl in the middle is Dina, you got this. You've knock me and Beau on our asses. You can definitely take her out. Just remember what we went through today in case she shifts". I nod, "I remember," th
