Chapter 3

Amelia's POV

Today is the ball. Everyone is in a rush wanting everything to be perfect. People are running around the town. I understand why people are in such a rush but, personally I wasn't really interested.

I wanted meet my mate in a romantic way. Not in a ball. I was also afraid that my mate was going to reject me due to me being a human. It always scared me.

I shrugged off those thoughts. "Hey princess." my dad greeted me. "Hi papa. "So I have talked to the college principal and he said you can join on Monday." my father said making me smile.

"Oh my goddess thank you papa." I said hugging him. He just chuckled at me. "No problem." "You excited for the Ball?" my dad asked me.

I just shrugged my shoulder. This made him confused. "Why not?" I sighed. "I am scared." "Scared of what exactly?" he asked confused.

"W-What if my mate reject me due to me being a human?" I asked sadly. "That will never happen. Only a fool will do such a thing."

"You are pretty, smart and such a kind person. And even if he does that, than he is not worthy of you." my dad said trying to comfort me. I smiled at him sadly.

I helped my father with some work and went to my room. Angela told me she will come over so that the both of us can get ready together.

I facetime some of my friends back in England while waiting for Angela. All of them missed me and so did I. Hopefully I get to see them again, soon.

Just when I ended the call, I heard a knock in my door. "Come in." I called the person in. Angela walked in as she closed the door behind her.

"Lets get ready shall we." she said excitedly while I chuckled at her shaking my head at her craziness. "Fine. But promise me you'll not put too much make up."

She pouted at me but I gave her the stern look. She rolled her eyes. "Fine." she huffed. We started with her first as she already had an idea of what look she wants.

She did smokey eyes look with a red lipstick. She looked absolutely stunning. We then moved on to her hair where we curled her hair and tied it into a ponytail.

After being done with everything, she went to change into her dress. After waiting for sometime, she came out wearing her burgundy dress.

When I saw her, my mouth were wide open. "You look stunning, Angela." I complimented. "I know." she said flipping her hair. We laughed at her cheekiness.

Soon she started on my make up. I closed my eyes upon her order as she did my make up and hair. It felt like hours till she finished.

Once she was done, she ushered me to my closet and asked me to wear my dress and come out. I did as she told me. Once I came out, I heard Angela gasp.

"You look hot!" she said making me blush. "T-Thank you." I said making my cheeks red. I wore my white sandals while Angela wore her red heels.

Just when we went down, Nathan came entered the house. "Wow." he said looking at Angela. I giggled at Nathan face.

Angela went towards Nathan and gave him a peck in the lips when Nathan pulled her in for a kiss. I smiled at them. Soon they pulled away and he whispered something in her ears which I couldnt hear.

"Wow baby sister. You look pretty. Now I have 2 ladies that I need to protect. Great." my borther said with a frown. Both Angela and me burst out laughing.

Once we got everything we needed we left for the Ball. We got into Nathan's car as he drove us to the Ball. Since it has only been 2 days I have been here, I am not really sure of the routes.

Hence Nathan offered me a ride which I gladly accepted. The last thing I want is getting lost. "I really hope Xavier finally finds his mate." Nathan told Angela. Who's Xavier? I thought. Maybe its one of his friends.

"I hope so too." Angela said. I shrugged it off and leaned back. I was a nervous wreck. I didn't know what to expect when we get there. Will I find my mate? Will he reject me?

So many thoughts were running throughout my mind and I didn't know what to think. Soon I heard Nathan say we have reached. I took in a few deep breathe before getting out.

I stood on the left of Nathan while Angela stood on the right. Nathan guided us inside. When I went inside, I was astonished by the look of it inside. It looked fabulous.

"Close your mouth baby sister." Nathan said as he chuckled. I blushed out of embarrassment. I have never seen the inside of the palace and it looked amazing.

As I looked around I saw so many people. I have never seen so many people in one spot. It looked massive.

"I need to go and see Alpha King. Excuse me." Nathan said as he gave Angela a peck and left. "Come on. I'll introduce you to some of the people." Angela said pulling me along towards her. Here we go.

Xavier's POV

"Stupid tie." I cursed as I tried to tie my tie. I tried over and over again but I couldn't do it. "Having trouble?" a voice I knew too well asked. I rolled my eyes.

Nathan, my beta came helped me with it. To my surprise he was done with it within seconds. "I can't believe The Alpha King isn't able to tie his tie." he said chuckling.

I growl at him. If it was any other person, I would have had their head in platter by now. But its Nathan. He has always stuck by me no matter what.

"Shut up." I rolled my eyes at him again. Once I checked that everything was ok, I turned to Nathan. "Everyone is here." he said nodding at me.

"Lets get this done with." I said walking past him when he stopped me. "You will find your mate. Don't worry." he said encouraging me.

"I better or else we are doomed. We need a strong and smart Luna if we are going to win the upcoming war." I said nonchalantly.

"Look, a mate is not just for the pack. You need her too." he said sighing. I just rolled my eyes. A mate just makes you weak.

That's what happened to my parents. After my father died, my mum became weak and she is all by herself, locked herself up in the far east wing, all to herself.

A mate will just make me weak. I am not weak. I am the Alpha King. The most powerful and ruthless Alpha. I will not allow my mate become my weakness.

However the Kingdom and my pack needs a Luna or they'll become weak. That is the only reason I am looking for my mate.

"Whatever." I said as I walked past him. I head him sigh, but still follow. "Well, I just would like to inform you, my sister is back." he said. I nodded at him.

I have heard about his sister but have never seen her. She is apparently a human. I scoffed at that. How is that even possible. I will never understand.

The moment I came to the ball room, everyone went silent. After looking around, I nodded my head as everyone continued whatever they were doing.

"We might find mate today." my wolf said in excitement. Even though I wasn't looking forward to seeing my mate, my wolf was.

I internally rolled my eyes at him.

Here we go.

Chapter 4

Amelia's POV

Everyone seemed to be so nice. So many of them has already found their mate. I was so happy for them. Everyone looked happy having to find their mate.

I have been walking around for sometime before going out to take some air. I looked around and saw a garden it was so beautiful. As I was about to go and see, I heard my name being called.

"Hey what are you doing outside? Come on in." Angela called me in. I nodded my head and went inside. The moment I went inside, I smelled vaguely an intoxicating smell. It smelt of chocolate and the forest.

It was too vague for me to put my finger on it. I wanted to go after the smell but I couldn't pin point it. So I shrugged it off. I went towards Angela and saw she was talking to some girls.

"Angela I am going to the washroom." I said as I excused myself. Luckily I was able to find the washroom. After doing my business, I came out only to smell the same scent as just now.

It was mouth watering. I followed the scent and hit something that seemed to be a wall. I stubbled back a bit before holding myself off.

When I looked up, I almost gasped. I saw the most beautiful eyes ever. Then I knew who it was. My mate. But what I realised was the power that was radiating off of him.

He held power like no other Alpha before. He's the Alpha King. I gulped when I realised that. No way. When I looked into his eyes, my heart broke.

It held embarrassment and disappointment. He let out a threatening growl before turning back on his heels and walking away.

I fall down in the floor, tears threatening to spill. I knew this is what was going to happen. He is going to reject me. Tears spill down my cheeks.

I sat down there for sometime before going back to the ball room, knowing Angela will be looking for me. When I went inside, I saw Angela looking for me.

I went towards her before masking a smile. "You ok? You were gone for some time. I was worried." she said looking worried.

"Its nothing. Just was feeling overwhelmed that's all." I lied. She nodded her head slowly. Just then I heard a thunderous roar.

When we looked towards the sound, it was the Alpha King. "EVERYONE LEAVE. NOW." he roared making all of us submit to him.

Without waiting another second, all of us left. I wanted to look back at him. But I fought that urge and left the place without saying another word.

Angela drove me back home, before going to the pack house. All the while I kept silent not wanting to say anything. Angela seemed worried about me but I told her it was nothing.

Not wanting to pester me, she let it be. As soon as she dropped me, I quickly went inside my house and ran to my room. Lucky for me, my parents were already asleep.

The moment I reached my room, I let out all the tears that were threatening to spill. My worst nightmare came true. My own mate rejected me.

It was an horrible pain. I can't believe this is actually happening. He is after all the Alpha King and would want a strong she wolf by his side and instead he got me.

A mere human. I was angry at myself. Why did I have to be human. Why? I was crying for hours before exhaustion took over me.

The next morning

I woke up with pain all over my body. I open my eyes to see I was lying in the floor. I didn't understand why before everything from yesterday came flooding back to me.

Tears threaten to spill again but I did not have the energy to cry anymore. So I wiped my tear stain face and went to my bathroom. I took a quick shower before, putting on a tank top and shorts as I put a baby blue jacket.

I went down to see my mum and dad doing breakfast. They looked so happy giggling and laughing. Looking at them made me sad immediately.

I erased those thoughts and went inside the kitchen. "Good morning princess. What time did you come yesterday? I didn't hear you come in." My father told me.

"A little after 12." I said trying not to show my emotions. He nodded his head before placing my plate in front of me.

"So princess, college is tomorrow. Are you ready?" My mum asked me. My eyes went as wide as saucers. I totally forgot.

"I need to go and get some stuffs." I said to my dad frantically. My parents laughed at my frantic face. "Don't worry. We have informed Angela about it and she said she'll come and bring you to get them."

I nodded my head. I wondered what happen after everyone left. Did he tell about me? Or did hide about it. I shuddered at the last thought.

I sighed not really wanting to think about it. I really wish he doesn't reject me. But I knew that is what's gonna happen.

Hopefully I could avoid him. I am not ready for the rejection. As I washed my plate, I heard a car pull up. Knowing its Angela, I opened the door for her.

"You ready?" she asked me. "Give me a moment. I'll grab my stuff." I said as I quickly went up and put my wallet and phone in a bag pack and ran down.

"I am ready." I said lowly. We went to her car as she drove us to town. The college has emailed me the booklist and everything I'll be needing.

I had most of the things and needed to get some books. "Can we go to a book store please. I need to get some books."

she nodded her head in silence. I know she wants to ask me something. "What happen yesterday? And don't day nothing." she said sternly.

How am I supposed to say. What am I supposed to say? I tried to come up with a lie. "Its nothing really. I was just disappointed that I couldn't find my mate. That's all."

"You sure?" She asked me questioningly. I nodded my head in assurance. Soon we reached the book store. I looked for the books I need and collected them.

I paid for my stuff and started to look for Angela when I saw her speaking to someone in the phone in a hushed tone. As soon as I came, she put down the phone.

"Shall we go?" I asked her. "Hey I am so sorry. I need to go to the palace urgently. The Alpha King is in rage and tearing everything apart. I need to go there."

"Can you drive yourself home. Thank you so much." She said hurriedly without letting me talk. Before I can say anything she left towards the woods, probably to shift.

I sighed. I didn't know how to drive. The car is parked in a corner luckily. I sighed as I walked. Its not that much of a long distance anyway.

I slowly walked along the road carrying my books in my bag pack. Suddenly I heard the thunder making me scream, and realise its gonna rain soon.

I then decided its faster to walk through the woods. I didn't want my books to get wet. So quickly I went through the woods and walked as fast I can.

That's when I heard a branch snap. My head quickly snapped towards the sound. When I smelt the air, I realised it was a rogue.

I let out a threatening growl. I may not be a wolf, but I still had my wolf instincts. I saw a dirty red wolf emerge from behind the tree.

I was scared when I saw it. But I am not going to show my fear to it. I let out a threatening growl. I saw the wolf smirk. It knows that I am a human.

Nevertheless, I am not going to show it my weakness. It lunged at me as I quickly dodged it. It hit the tree and fell down.

It quickly recover and searched for me. When it saw me, it ran towards me. I side kicked before it when banging into the trees.

Without wasting much time I started to run as it followed me.
