Aprils
pov."I Jake Currington alpha of the dark moon pack reject you April Robinson as my mate and the Luna of this pack." He said with no emotion.
" I...April Robinson .. accept your rejection.." I said through tears.
5 hours earlier:
I wake up with a huge smile on my face! Its finally here! I'm finally eighteen!
I make my way through the house and finally get to the kitchen. I am greeted with the amazing smell of pastries!
"Hey mom! " I say as I give her a kiss on the cheek.
"Hello darling." She says." Happy birthday! " she says excitedly!
"Thanks mum." I say.
"Today you might find your mate, are you excited?" She says.
"Honestly mum I'm not. What if I don't find him? I don't want to be too disappointed. I have to go now..I'm late for school." I say.
I get in my car and head to school.
Well I realize now that you don't know anything about me. Maybe I should tell you just a little bit.
My name is April Robinson and I'm a werewolf. You might be thinking " what? A werewolf?" But it's true we actually exist.
Today I have the hopes of finding my mate. A mate is a werewolfs soul mate. A significant other. Mates are supposed to love you and care for you like no other person does or ever will.
At the age of eighteen is when most werewolves find their mates.
I reach school and make my way towards my locker.
Skips to lunch time:
I have no friends in this school and hence I always eat my lunch in the library .
I haven't found my mate yet (if you were wondering!) And I don't think I will.
The bell rings and I make my way to class.
The teacher called in sick so we had a substitute today.
Just when I am about to continue reading " all the bright places" I hear a knock on the door ..
'Yes, come in!" The substitute says.
When the door opens I am hit with the most amazing scent ever, it smells woodsy and it makes my hormones turn hay wire!
"Mate! Mate! Mate!" Snow (my wolf) screams in excitement.
I am happy too but that is before I see who it is. No ! no! no! It can't be! The future Alpha of this pack can't be my mate!
The look of disgust he gives me let's me know that my mate feels the same.
"The principal wants to see April Robinson " his voice stirred something in me.
Wait what? What did I do?
I stand up and make my way to the principals office.
It is just him and I in the hallways . I start walking towards the principals office but I'm stopped when something pulls me back.
" April, I know you are my mate " he says.
" I know that too! Could this day get any better? " I say enthusiastically.
"Actually it can. I Jake Currington future alpha of the dark moon pack reject you April Robinson as my mate and future Luna of this pack.." he says with no emotion.
I feel my heart breaking and the tears start flowing on their own accord..
" w...h...y.." I stammer.
" I need a female to bear me strong alpha pups. And honestly you are not that female.." he says.
Well if my heart broke before it sure as hell is shattered now!
" I April Robinson accept your rejection." I say and walk away from my supposed mate before I break down more in front of him.

Aprils povThe second I make it to my car,I get on it and drive really fast.I try to run away from everything but the pain I feel is too much.Am I not enough? What did I do wrong? Am I not good enough to be a Luna?All my hopes of finding a mate and having a happily ever after died in that hallway.The tears start rolling on their own and it makes it hard to see the road.Suddenly, I feel a force pushing the car forward and I hit the steering wheel but before I can make out what is happening to me, the darkness envelopes me......Later in the day: I wake up to a pounding headache. It feels like I'm being hit by a hammer repeatedly.It hurts to open my eyes but I have to. The darkness is too depressing. I open m
Aprils pov."Mom? Where are you going? " I say while struggling to get out of the bed.What was that look of vengeance in her eyes?What was she planning to do?I walk out of my room and I look for my mom's scent.I go downstairs and make my way to the pack house."How dare you do this?" I can hear my mom screaming."She is your mate for gods sake, why would you reject her? "My mom continues." Son, is this true? "The alpha said."Yes it is dad!" My pathetic mate said."Why?" The alpha asks."Have you seen her? She is absolutely pathetic and she doesn't even have any ranks. My pups would be too weak and all because of the useless excuse of a mother they are going to have ! "He says with no emotion.
Aprils povI'm dragged to the dungeons by the guards and I hear people murmuring a few " you don't deserve this" and " I'm sorry.However,their words are inadequate because they cannot free me from the silver chains!Once upon a time I used to believe that I had the best pack and one of the best alphas but all that went to hell today.We enter the dungeons and I'm instantly hit with the smell of rotten blood and dead bodies.Is this where they torture people? Or were these people sentenced to stay in this wretched place till their last breath?One guard escorts me to the cell and throws me in it.Its dark but I can still make out my surrounding using night vision.The walls are stained with blood and there is only one small window in the cell. There are two people huddled over each other. They look weak and oddly
How could that be? If it's true then that would mean that they have been lying to me for eighteen years!"Mom please tell me it's not true! " I plead" I would be lying if I did that April." She says.I scream at the top of my lungs but the pain only increases. I feel abandoned, betrayed and broken.What did I do to deserve all this?First, I'm rejected.Second,I am to be made an omega.Third,I am losing my parents, sorry my adoptive parents.And now I find out that my parents abondoned me!Could this get any worse?" April, we love you and you will always be our daughter! Just because you don't have our blood running in your veins doesn't change the fact that you are out baby! " my dad says while pulling me into a hug." tell me about my parents dad." I say." I really dont know much. All I know
Aprils povI feel a pair of hands dragging me backwards and I'm instantly snapped out of my daze.I turn back to see the guard who was assigned to me pulling my hand.Was I the only one who saw the moon goddess?If so then how and why?We reach my cell and I'm thrown into it, I make contact with the wall and if I were human, I'm pretty sure I would've broken my spinal cord.I sit down on the blood stained floor and hug my knees and start moving back and forth.The tears begin flowing on their own accord and I can't do anything to stop them.My parents are dead! All because of the Alpha and his son,my mate.What on earth did I do to deserve all this?My heart feels empty....it's feels colder than ice.My wolf hasn't talked to me for a while and I'm starting to wonder if sh
April's pov." April! " I hear a voice calling my name.I try to wake up but I'm still sleepy." April! Wake up! " I hear only now it's louder.Damn! Is a girl not allowed to rest?Suddenly, I wake up and a sharp pain shoots through my arm.I take in my surroundings and that's when I remember everything that happened yesterday.Did it actually happen yesterday? "April,look at me! " the voice urges.It is then that I notice a figure standing just outside my cell."What do you want?" I say but my voice sounds like sand paper. " I'm here to give you some food!" The guard says." I don't want anything!" I reply." April, please just eat! You've been asleep for two days and you haven't eaten anything!" He pleads.Did he just say two days? S
Aprils pov."Snow" I call my wolf."Yes April." She says and she sounds better than the last time we talked." are you okay?" I ask."I'm better now " she says.I'm glad she's better. Snow is the only one I have left and if it weren't for her I don't know what I would have done." I'm glad." .. " Snow, do you think we should trust the guard?" I ask.She is silent for way too long and I begin getting worried." Snow?" I call out." yes April. You should trust him" she says and a sight escapes her." Snow, are you sure you're okay?" I ask getting worried." don't worry about me! Its nothing I can't handle. " she says and I trust her on that . So, I stop asking questions." okay! I can give it a shot but trust is a strong word
It's been almost a week now since Dylan told me about the plan and I have a feeling that it's not gonna work out.I don't mean to be negative or anything but have you ever had a bad feeling about something, then it actually happens?I put that thought away and started chanting a few "positive energy " "it will work out well" "nothing will go wrong"" April? " I hear snow calling me. " I have a bad feeling about today! " she continues and my worry comes back. " why? " I ask." I don't know I just do but it's probably nothing. " she says and cuts me off. She leaves my mind and blocks me.Before I can make out what that was all about, I hear footsteps and I smell the familiar scent of Dylan."Dylan! Hey! " I say excitedly." did
