This past few days have all blurred into one being the same as every day. Waking up late and going to school it’s now Friday afternoon and my birthday is tomorrow at midnight I will shift for the first time ever and I will be able to sense my mate if he is in this pack. As is tradition for ranked female wolfs when we come of age to get our wolf we have a big party inviting other surrounding packs to see if anyone is my mate it’s also used as a mate hunt for all unmated wolves. Mother has been going frantic arranging everything and trying to keep all the details a secret from me. She has picked my outfit hired someone to do my hair and makeup and got a groomer in for my wolf. When someone first shifts there wolf is matted because they have been cooped up for 16years and nobody wants to look scruffy we have a special pack groomer that will tend to my wolf when I shift later tonite. Mum will be the one helping me through my shift tonite people have said it’s extremely painful the first time and takes longer then it will in future I’m really quite nervous. As I walk in to the pack house I go to run up the stairs but I’m stopped by my mother who tells me I can’t go to training tonite I have to rest before my shift at midnight. Who am I to argue with being told to take a nap. I run up to my room on the 5th floor, we live in the pack house current alpha family is on the 5th floor then beta and gamma families are on the 4th floor previously ranked members are on the 3rd floor second floor has a few guest rooms and a few pack warriors and finally the ground floor has our tv room kitchen dining room and great hall is also has a games room and is free to use by anyone in the pack. Once I get up the 5 flights of stairs to my room I walk into the bathroom and turn the bath on I add in some galaxy bubble bath and a galaxy bath bomb as well as some muscle relaxing bath salts. Once the water is just a few inches from overflowing I turn off the taps and strip down slowly sinking into the bath tub so far down only my face is out of the water. I find the silence water brings to be extremely relaxing. I lay in the tub just thinking about the pain I will soon be in but that I get to meet my wolf and hopefully my mate before I know it it’s been a hour and half so I wash my hair shave my legs ready for tomorrow’s party and jump out of the now cool water. I adorn a large hot pink fluffy towel and wrap my hair in a smaller towel. I dash into my bedroom and throw on some baby pink sleep shorts and a white vest top and get into my lovely cozy bed as soon as my head hit the pillow sleep over come me and I was out like a light.
