I went upstairs and crashed on my bed. I'm laying there about to go to sleep when suddenly Elsa starts talking to me, telling me not to sleep for too long, because we will be shifting soon. I'm so tired from my party. "Well, you're the one who wanted to party all night knowing that we needed to shift." As you know, shifting for the first time is very painful and we need to start early. Yes, I know that, but couldn't it wait until tomorrow? "Nope, we must shift now today has to be the day that we have to do it."
I had slept for a little while, then Elsa some me up telling me that it was time. We head downstairs out the backdoor heading to the forest. When I looked up I could see lightning and thunder erupting through the sky. This is great, it is already raining. "We will be fine as long as you are not afraid." I'm not afraid of thunder and lightning.We are in the middle of the forest and I take my clothes off. Now concentrate and envision yourself as a wolf. I am concentrating, then suddenly I feel my bones start to crack. I bend over feeling agonizing pain going through me. I'm starting to feel my spine sprout with fur, then my face starts to elongate, as well as my arms and legs begin to become furry. I am in so much pain that I didn't even know that Cameron, my best friend, was there making sure that I would not go through my first time shifting process alone.CameronWhile I was driving home and listening to my music and watching the rain come down. After I helped my mate's parents clean up from her birthday party. It had been a while since it rained too, which would be good for us since we needed the rain. I'm driving by the forest which is on the way home. All of a sudden I hear a scream. My Wolf Brice has been alerted to this as well. He says to me it sounds like mate. Then I thought about it and that is when I realized that she's going through her first shift, but why is she doing it alone? I said to myself.Brice says we must go and help mate. I stopped the car and run into the forest and there she was in the middle of it, agonizing in pain trying to shift. I knelt and rubbed her back and that seemed to ease the pain. She continues as her face starts to elongate, then her arms and legs are covered with fur. Then her hands start turning into claws. After that Cailee is on all fours and she is the most beautiful creature I saw. Her fur was red with a white streak going down her back the right side of her back. "I'm looking at Cameron and asking him what is wrong." I'm just speechless, your wolf is beautiful. Go look in the small pond and see for yourself. Going over to look in the pond and I gasped. Oh my goodness, I say you're gorgeous, Elsa. No, she says we are gorgeous and with that, I walk away from the pond as I was starting to shift back and that is when I almost collapsed, but was caught by Cameron. He picks me up and carries me. I tell him you smell nice. "What do I smell like?" You smell like musk and pinewood. That is when Cailee closed her eyes to sleep.By the time we came out of the forest, it was almost dawn. I looked and said that I needed to get back to my parents. Don't worry I will give you a ride home, Cameron says. "There's no way I am letting you walk after you just had your first shift." Besides, it is still raining, your parents would hurt me if I wasn't a proper gentleman. I headed to my car with Cailee in my arms, she smelled so good and felt right. Brice loved the idea of having our mate so close to us. I opened the passenger door and put her in the seat and buckled her in as she was too tired from shifting. We drove the ten miles back to her house while she was sleeping her head against the window. I looked over at her and knew she was the most beautiful mate for me even if she didn't know it yet. I have a feeling that Cailee will know I'm here may soon enough. Right now I know you're tired so you just need to rest. The next thing she knows is we are parked in her driveway. She had finally woken up and told me thank you and was opening the door and before she knew it she tripped again for the second time but fell right into my arms. I had this look in his eyes, then she blushed a little while he was looking at me. "I ask her if she is alright?" Yes, I think that I'm just still a little woozy from shifting. Thanks for being there and not letting me fall flat on my face, you're welcome I said. Well, I better get inside before my parents wake up. "I think it may be too late for that as he is looking in the direction of my parents standing on the porch." Her parents noticed that it was me who brought Cailee home and they bowed their heads in respect. "Sorry, Cameron, we didn't notice that it was you that brought her home." Cailee walked towards her parents and the door was wide open. She had turned around to wave to me, then told me that she will see me at school.It's alright I just helped her with her first shift. Oh my goodness you shifted sweetie, my mom says. Then why didn't you come and get one of us if you were going to shift? Well, I didn't want to wake you up because I knew you were both tired from the party and taking care of Stephen. With that, I drove back to the pack house.CaileeI'm going to go upstairs and rest now. "Alright, honey, you go and rest, but we want to see your wolf later on okay?" Yes, Dad, I say after I rest for a bit. Once I get into my room and see my bed, plop face down and I was off to dreamland. Before, I knew it my mom was calling me for dinner. Honey wake up you need to eat after that shifting you did you need your energy. Okay, Mom, I'm up I will be coming down for dinner in a few minutes. Going into the bathroom, I wash up and do my business. Taking a glimpse in the mirror I see that the rest has done us some good don't you think so Elsa? "Yes, I do now, can we go downstairs? I'm famished. So I headed downstairs smelling the aroma of delicious food. What did you make for dinner? Oh just your favorites she says, I look around and there's lasagna, mixed vegetables, Broccoli with cheese, steak, spaghetti, chicken, and turkey. Along with mashed potatoes and macaroni and cheese. Then there was soda, juice, and water to drink. My stomach started growling at the sight of it. I don't know if you know by now that once a person shift's into their wolf. It tends to drain your energy. So they need to eat a lot of food to sustain that energy.After dinner we would love to see your wolf sweetie, my mom says. Or would you prefer to wait until you have had more rest my dad asked. No, it's fine I can show you after we eat. At that moment I just dug in and moaned at the deliciousness of the food. Do you think that Cameron may be your mate? My mom asked.Duke’s P.O.V. I couldn’t believe my eyes when I looked up while holding my ex Sophia hostage. My mate was here, she smelled of Blackberries and Lilac roses. That scent was intoxicating, but I was so busy with her cousin that I didn’t even recognize the sign of her being my mate. That wasn’t until Alpha Lou said that he would not hurt me if I let his mate go. Even though I had a strong feeling that he wouldn’t keep his word. However, I let Sophia go anyway as she ran into his arms. Are you okay? He asks her. I’m fine now that I am back in your arms again. Alright, stay here for a moment, then the alpha begins to shift. That is when I knew that he was going to attack me. I waited for him to at least come and one of my limbs. It never happened though because when I opened my eyes while preparing for the worst. His cousin Stephanie jumped right in front of me. I have never been so grateful in my life, for a mate who is risking her life to be with me. She was defying the Alpha of her p
Stephanie’s P.O.V. When we got to the place to rescue my cousin’s mate. It smelled of dark chocolate and cookies. That is when I knew right then and there that the person who took our Luna was my mate. I had been looking for my mate since the Graduation and mating party. Now here we are, and we have to fight him just to get our Luna back. Of course, I could tell that Duke wasn’t that I was his mate. He was too busy convincing our Luna to be his chosen mate, that he didn’t even notice me. I was hoping that he would be able to tell that I was his mate. Then I remembered he probably couldn’t smell me if he was busy with Sophia. My mind was in a blur because even though he was my mate. We had to fight him just to get cousin’s mate back. I was too scared to tell my cousins and my brother that Duke was my mate. I knew that they would not approve of him being my mate, So, I just remained silent at this time. Then we had to fight the men that he sent after us. We did beat every last one o
Well, that is too bad because she is my mate. Please let me deal with him, he is the only family that I have left. Go ahead and finish talking to your son. Duke, I know that you have kidnapped the Pure-Blood Alpha’s mate. She doesn’t belong with you. How do you know that I have her? Son, they called me to try to talk you into giving her up. She also left a note on the back of the letter you sent her when you sent her the cookies. She wasn’t supposed to throw the cookies away, they were her favorite. Maybe she sensed something wrong with them, plus whatever you said in the note tipped her off. She is supposed to be with me, I want her as my chosen mate. You can’t have her, she is already mated. I was supposed to find my mate that night too, but I never found mine. Duke, you will find your mate. It just takes time, that is all. No one will take her away from me this time. Son, she is not yours to keep. Oh, I am not going to keep her, she will be my wife. That is going to happen ove
I wasn't doing good with my tricks trying to get Duke to let me go. However, he caught on to my scheme. Well, so much for that working. I know what you’re doing Sophia? It is not going to happen as long as you have your mates mark. Lou’s P.O.V.We have the piece of clothing that the guards came back with. I took one look and stuffed it. Yep, this belongs to the Luna. Slade do you have a scent? Yes, I do have the scent. Good now all we have to do is follow this scent, and should be there in no time. We need to head out at 0800 hours. Once we find the place, then we surround it. Isn’t there one other person that you need to call? Asked my dad. Dad, I have already called Alpha Zach, so he can try to get in touch with Count Dracula.I’m certain that he has, and the count will be here soon. What do you mean soon? I am already here. Where the heck did you come from? I came from Transylvania. I was vacationing there when the former Alpha called me to let me know my son had kidnapped his ex.
What could be of the utmost importance? My dad asked. I don’t know Dad, but Slade says we need to get to her quickly. If that is the case, and it’s time-sensitive, we must do what your wolf has asked. I am just sitting on the bed in the room that Duke has put me in. Wondering if there is any way I can escape. However, he already said that there wasn’t any unless we wanted to fall to our doom. Sonia, what are we going to do? We can’t stay here, especially knowing now that I am carrying the next heir to the pack. Don’t worry, Sophia, our mate will come and rescue us. I know he will, then I can tell him about the pup. “He will be so excited to discover that will be a father.” “Does Slade know?” Yes, he knows and he hasn’t told Lou. Why not? “I asked him to keep it a secret.” That was before we got kidnapped by your ex-vampire boyfriend. No, he needs to know right now. This might be the push he needs to rescue me quicker. Alright, I will find a way to let him know. As if I haven’t prepa
Who the heck kidnapped my daughter? That was that Sophia’s dad, Daniel, had asked me. How am I supposed to know who kidnapped her? All I know is that she was up in our room resting because she wasn’t feeling well. Then Eric and I decided to go and train. Before we knew it, one of the guards came to me and told me that the Luna had been kidnapped. I felt like she was stuck with a needle because I was holding my neck while feeling the pain. Whoever, took her knew what they were doing? Wait, maybe she orchestrated this kidnapping just so we could like her. Seriously, mom, you really think that? Well, look who her father is? I said that I was sorry and regretted ever trying to kidnap you, Bailee. But, I know my daughter, and she is nothing like me. She has been trying everything she can to prove to you that she is a good Luna. You know he is right, honey. If she really did orchestrate this, wouldn’t she have done it sooner? How can you say that, Cameron? Look, babe, all I am trying to
