The Path Less Traveled

VENUS P.O.V. ........   "Get the fuck out of here!" I yell as soon as I heard my door open. I knew what was coming. I knew what today was and I was dreading it.    "Venus May Moon! What did you say to us?" My mom screeches in my ear. I knew I had fucked up but I wasn't in the the mood for their crap this morning.  "You heard me mom. Take yourself and dad and get the hell out of my room. I'm not leaving this bed until tomorrow and then I'm heading straight to the airport. I'm done being here. I refuse to go to the Full Moon Bonfire and I refuse finding my mate until I'm good and ready. I'm 18 now you have no choice but to leave my fucking room and get the hell out of here!!!!"  I knew as soon as I said that I was going to regret it but I didn't give a flying fuck.   Ever since I could remember it had been drilled in me and every woman in the pack that once we turn 18 we are to find our mate and get started on making a fam

Jason's P.O.V. ......"Jason wake up""No""Jason wake up""No, go away""Jason should I remind you of what today is."At that my ass flew out of bed and straight into the shower."Goddess, Alex what didn't you start with that?" I asked my wolf"Well I didn't think you would forget that today is our mate's birthday and the day she will finally know who we are to her." Alex replied sharply."I'm sorry, but I wasn't the one pacing back and forth all night keeping me awake most of the night."" I'm sorry but it has been a long year. Especially the last few weeks." Alex replied  I knew what he ment. For most of the year we had been able to keep our longing at bay. But these last few days without getting to see or talk to Venus my head was starting to hurt.   I had told Zeus the moment I felt the bond. I remember that day like it was yesterday. The day when all my worries and fears went aw

   Later after I have made my rounds and acted the part of the happy, birthdary girl, I find my mother. I know if I were to go straight to my room she would come and chew me out later.     "Hey, mom, do you mind if I finish packing and go to bed? Since we have to get up early I want to make sure everything is ready to go and I get enough sleep" I make sure to sound tired and warn out.     " Umm, sure sweetie. But did you get enough to eat?" She asks me with a weird look in her eyes.     "Oh, yes Jason brought me a plate full of ribs at the beginning of the party and then I snacked here and there. Now I'm just tired and ready for tomorrow." I say to her trying to sound as exhausted as I can.     "So I'm guessing no sign of your mate then?" She asks me again with a weird look in her eyes.       Like she knows something I don't or they don't think I know

Zeus P.O.V. .... Same Night....    "He will come to you in time."   Those words kept playing in my head. Who is he and way was he coming to see me?    "Zeus, I think I know who is coming." Hercules my wolf said to me.   I had always thought it weird that my wolf's name was Hercules. I know why my mother named me Zeus. Her love for Greek mythology ran deep. She even took classes in college when her and dad were first mated. She went until she had me. She always said it called to her. Like she was reading her history. I knew her great grandparents came from Greece and her grandmother. It was in our blood.     " Me too Herc. It has to be Zeus himself. It's almost as if I can feel him already. " I replied. The air around us lately had been static and electric. Or perhaps I can feel them in the air. "He's coming, but, when I can't tell you."     Dre

Venus P.O.V.....       Saying goodbye to my parents and brothers was the hardest thing I have ever done. I had almost decided not to go, but the thought went away as quickly as it had come about. I was on a mission and I couldn't let the fear of leaving my family stop me. The trip from our small pack airport to Sea-Tac airport was quick and smooth. Now I was safely nestled into a first class cubby. There was alot of room. I had my own T.V. and mini bar. The flight attendant told me since I was underage they had taken any alcohol and replaced it with extra pop and water. My parents had sent notice to them ahead of time. As I looked into the mini bar I noticed that the only pop in there was Dr. Pepper and Cherry Dr. Pepper. Grabbing a cherry one I closed the door and chuckled to myself. I wonder how much they "Donated" to the airline to get this kind of treatment. Suddenly I saw a small cubby with a door. Curiously I opened the door, and to my surpris
