CHAPTER 8

ETHAN'S POV

I'm sitting in my family's private jet waiting for my two dumb best friends to join me. They are always late and I hate it. I'm the future Alpha after my dad retires and they are my future Beta And Gamma. We need to be on time. I really want to go to this mating camp and make a fool out of Edward.

Edward is the future Alpha of the Black Water pack. We have a treaty with them but they are smug assholes and I don't like them. Edward and I are very competitive and he already texted me telling me how he was going to beat me at all the events and how he is the better Alpha. Every other Alpha fears me except him.

I was given the name Killer Ethan after a rrouge attack on my pack and I took out fifteen rouges by myself when I was fifteen. Unlike others, I kill first and ask questions later. At first, I hated the nickname I mean I did not want to be known as a monster or killer but seeing people cower around me puts my wolf at ease.

Alpha Edward doesn't cower around me but he also happens to be my cousin. I would beat Edward senselessly when I see him but I promised my father I will be on my best behavior at camp. I tend to get angry easily and always have. Recently at training,I broke a few warrior's arms and that's why my dad pushed me to go on vacation.

I wanted to go to Germany or Sweden but my dumb friends convinced me to go to the mating camp with them. I'll be eighteen in a few days and my friends want me to find my mate. They think once I find her,it will calm me down but nothing will as I have darkness in me. A feeling that half my soul has already been ripped away from me.

All I feel is rage now, I am now violent and temperamental but I do hope that if I do find my mate,she can handle me. I haven't felt happiness in a long time not since she left...

She was my best friend,Mia. We have been friends since we were toddlers and we did everything together. From hanging out at the park together to eating lunch and dinner at the pack house and staying up late watching movies.

But one day, she was just gone. I don't even remember her saying goodbye. I just went to knock on her door to ask her if she wanted to go get ice cream when I found her bedrooms door open and the room was empty. All her stuffs was gone and her scent has been wiped away. I was so distraught I had a full meltdown and I went to my room and destroyed everything.

No one could stop me. I was on a war path. My father finally showed up and used his Alpha command to calm me down. He explained that Mia and her family had moved away and they did not want to be a part of our pack anymore and I wasn't allowed to contact them.

Her leaving hurt and I decided then not to get another girl get close to me.

Running my hand through my wavy black hair, my golden brown eyes spot my two best friends finally entering the cabin. "Where the hell have you idiots been,I told you I wanted to arrive early". I yell and they bow their heads in submission.

"Sorry Ethan,Liam here had to say goodbye to Lia or was it Linda? I had to wait in my car for him to finish". Brian laughs and sits in the seat across from me.

"Why are you still hooking up with all this shewolves Liam? You could find your mate at the camp and then you will have to explain why you've been with another girl". I shake my head in disgust.

Liam sits beside Brian and starts laughing. "Sorry bro we can't all be perfect like you and wait for our mate. Some of us want to have some fun first. Plus her name is Brittany". he punches Liam in the shoulder and receives a hit in response.

"Hey I have needs also man but I just have this feeling I should wait, plus my wolf gets turned away from other shewolves". I admit even though it's embarrassing. Most Alphas don't wait as we do what we want with no consequences. Not to mention all girls want to be Luna and throw themselves at us but I just can't do it.

"Maybe your mate is a man". Liam laughs and Brian punches his shoulder.

"I like women asshole, I just want that special one". I bite my lip and try to think of the perfect mate.

"She is special if she puts up with you". Brian laughs and Liam joins him.

My best friends are so immature. Smiling in satisfaction I lay my head back and think of my mate.
