Wonderful Life

                                        Stephanie's Point of view:

One month ago...

Today is the big day. I'm taking the line with other models. Some of the faces seem to be familiar to me, others are not.

Not that any of them seem to be friendly. Well, I wasn't expecting anything from them. Honestly, they all look totally terrifying - not judging at all.

After all, it's like competition over here, one of the girls will get the job, while the others will be thrown out like they never existed.

To be honest, it's not actually my first time doing this, but I can't deny the fact of being totally freaked out. I mean, look at all these good-looking girls; they look like Greek Goddess for the fact of just being human girls.

Even without werewolf genes, they manage to look incredibly super-hot. As you know, a female werewolf is always known for her extreme beauty thanks to the werewolf genes.

This is not the case with me, not that I'm not beautiful, but my beauty is not actually that attractive beauty that a she-wolf is supposed to have.

Lucky me, I have an adorable mate that loves me for who I am, not for how I look. He also thinks that I'm the most beautiful woman in the world.

While I was lost in my thoughts, I heard someone calling my name. That's it, it's my sign ...

A human girl moved toward me in order to lead me toward a room where there were two other guys. One of them was holding a camera. While the other one was sitting and holding a file, that I'm sure was mine.

Anyway, I moved to the spotlight and stood there. The cameraman checks me out and then breaks the silence by.

" Ok! Can you please start by introducing yourself?"

Although he was trying to act polite, believe me when I say he didn't do it right. I mean, the guy gives you the impression of The Theo from Teen Wolf not in terms of looking for sure, but only in personality.

You may wonder why would an actual werewolf like me, be here among human models. Not to mention watching a teen's unreal fiction about werewolves. Well, it's just curiosity... It's kinda funny and hilarious how humans think about us. Besides, the werewolf genes don't spread by biting humans, it gets spread by the mating process that happens between two mates who are madly in love with each other.

Anyway, I looked up to Mr. Theo look alike - and with a smile, I answered " My name is Stephanie Greene, I am 28 years ..."

I was cut off by Theo, who gave me an 'Are you serious!!!' look followed by a question

"28 likes 28 years old??!! You're seriously not kidding, because... Girl, you're looking way too young."

He was interrupted by the other one

"Do you think of what am I thinking about right now??!! The beauty that doesn't age..."

He said while giving the Theo's guy a huge smile.

Then he asked me some questions about my experiences and how I ended up as a model and other typical questions. All I did was to smile and answer.

A week later, I received a call from the guy that looks like Theo. His name turns out to be James. He was the photographer responsible for the promotion. He only called to inform me that I was chosen to be the visual that will represent their products, and also to inform me that I will have a two-year's contract.

Although I was beyond happy, I've tried my best to act professionally, which I didn't succeed at. Because I still remember myself jumping and screaming on the phone like a five-year-old kid that found the way to Wonderland.

Till now, everything in my life seems heavenly perfect. I'm actually having a wonderful life. I've been blessed since the day I was born. I have a lovely family, wonderful friends, and an amazing mate.

You might wonder about who's this mate am I talking about?

Well, let me tell you, it all started when I was twelve. One of my best friends who happened to be my crush at that time confessed his love to me. Not just he was freaking handsome, but he was also our pack's future alpha (blood moon’s pack).

With time passing by, fear starts logging into both of us. Knowing that we're going to be together soon at the age of 16, which means that we may not be each other's mates ...

Let's just say that faith was on our side, and we turned out to be mates.

Lovely, isn't it... Since Earl's father is only in his nineties, he still has at least about one hundred years as an alpha for the pack. The average age for a werewolf is about two-three hundred years. Well, not all of us - rumors say that the shadows pack are cursed by eternity. Who the hell calls such a gift by a curse? I mean, eternity is a gift, death is a curse in my personal perspective.

Well, my mate and I are still young to lead our pack, that's why my mate decided to enjoy what we have left from freedom before he becomes an alpha to do what no one before us did.

We decided to take a trip to the human city and to enjoy a fake life among them for a while. Stupid isn't.

Well!! My mate did so many things for me, and it didn't sound right to go against him for something that he truly wants.

For sure, not everyone in the pack did appreciate his idea, including his father - the alpha. But no one actually dared to say anything against it. Just because no one wants to be on his bad side.

From that time, we both moved on to the city, and I got to say it's already been ten years. We manage to find time to visit the pack every weekend since it's just a two-hour car drive away from the city. I've also made some human friends, they're not totally bad as I used to think, actually they are cool.

I mean, while a werewolf's life is actually about mating → s*x → rogues → fights and who's the strong one, humans do actually live their life enjoying every simple fact of life.

Not that they are all happy - but at least, they can be careless as much as they want, and no one will judge them for that.

On the other hand, I was supposed to be a Luna one day. I'm supposed to take care of my pack, which is something I'd love to do. I also was supposed to give birth to a new alpha, but I still didn't.

Seriously, Earl and I have been mating for more than 10 years and I still didn't get pregnant, which is totally weird.

A normal werewolf can only have kids from his mate. Once they mate with each other, the she-wolf carries her first child. For me, nothing has happened till now, and the whole thing is freaking me out.

Lucky me, Earl doesn't care about having kids, which I found odd. Every single wolf would like to have kids in their own blood, so how about an alpha? I kinda think he's hiding his true feelings about it all, and I can't help but to feel guilty about the whole thing.
