Every Year our Alpha would host a dinner for all the Alphas and Betas and Gammas who would be staying till the end of the mating season in hopes of finding a mate.
The dinner had happened last week Saturday, however one Alpha hadn't been present and because Alpha Logan was way too nice if you asked me, he insisted that the Alpha had dinner with him, his beta and Gammas family, that included my dad and well, all of us.
I hated the fact that I had to pinup myself up for a man who may not egg en show up for this dinner.
Don't get me wrong, we eat with the Alpha and his family every other day, but the thought of a stranger being among us rattled me, I wasn't a big fan of people. Especially Aphas who I didn't know about.
We arrived at the Alphas house right on time. There wasn't any need to knock as the Alpha already knew it was us.
We walked through the door, my brothers heading for the living room, where they would stay till our mothers would call for us to bring our asses to the dining hall.
I however headed upstairs for Ariel's room. Ariel was the Alphas daughter and my best friend and also my elder brothers mate.
Yeah we were tied to each other for life, she wasn't getting rid of me.
I barge into her room just the way my mom did, I find her by her vanity table her head buried in her phone and by the wide smile on her face I knew she was talking to my brother.
I let out a gag before flopping on her big pink bed. Her room looked like a fairy had puked in it. It was so pink.
But I had gotten used to it.
Rolling her eyes she looks at me through the mirror.
"Would you like my attention you big baby?" She questions turning around to look at me her big blue eyes going round at the sight of me in my dress.
Before she says anything I beat her to it.
"Not a word about the dress, you know my mama made me wear it" I snap burying my head in her mountain of pillows.
"You look beautiful Charlie, it suits you… and how is your mom?" She questions and a shiver rolls down my spine.
"Still scary, the pregnancy hormones are really getting to her, on Wednesday she chased Liam around with a kitchen knife and when my dad tried to take it from her, she turned around and chased him with it. He slept downstairs that night." I reply and she lets out a giggle.
"Yeah your mom is scary, but her and your dad are so cute". She says and I already know where the topic was going.
Ariel knew I wasn't excited to find my mate, hell I couldn't be bothered any less, but still she found a way to bring up the topic to make me feel a little bit excited about it.
I'm not, she thinks it's an anomaly, she says it's the human in me talking, I disagree.
"Are you about to start talking about mates again? Because I would rather drown myself." I deadpan giving her a deadpanned look.
She shakes her head, "All I'm saying is be open minded about it, I mean look at me and your brother." She states with a harmless shrug.
Once more I gag, "No thank you, I would rather not watch you and my brother suck faces." I shudder.
"You know that's not what I meant." She sighs looking up at the ceiling a tired look on her face.
I let out a sigh before getting up from the bed and walking to her vanity. She looks at me an unsure look on her face.
I take her hands in mine "Ari, I am more than happy that you and Ryan are mates and that you got your fairytale dnd, I just don't think that's how it's going to be for me."
I say reminiscing about the times when she used to have a big crush on Ryan and follow him around like a lost puppy, Ryan refused all of her advances then because well she was a minor and he was four years older than her.
But a few months ago she clocked eighteen, and it clicked for them, they discovered they were mates and have been in love with each other ever since.
"I know that Char, I just want you to be excited about this, you turn eighteen soon, and a few weeks after that is the mating season, something could happen, just keep an open mind." I feel the weight of her words settle on my chest, but I push past those sad feelings and give her a smile.
"You would make a fantastic Luna" I state running a hand down her blonde almost white hair, that gets her smiling.
She lets out a giggle swatting my hand away before talking about something else.
I might have said that to Chang the subject, but I didn't doubt that she would infact make a beautiful Luna, she was everything a Luna should be and even tho she looked fragile she was one of the strongest she wolves I knew.
My brother was lucky to have her.
She changed into her dress for the evening a thin strapped baby pink dress, that molded her figure.
We lay down in her bed talking for about fifteen minutes, before a knock sounds from the outside of her room,and from the way her face brightens I know it's my brother.
Ugh couples.
The door open and there stands the man of the hour. His barely looks at me as he stares at her like she hung the moon.
They stay like that for a minute, a giddy look on her face as she stares back at my brother with equal love and affection in her face.
Ugh couples.
"Can we help you?" I snap, breaking them out of their day dream.
He looks at me a scowl taking over his face and I give him my best innocent look.
"Alpha Zachariah will not be making it for dinner, but mom said to get your asses downstairs." He finishes, his eyes going back to her.
I groan getting up from the bed before walking past him, making sure my shoulder hits his own.
They were definitely going to make out.
