Mate or not?

*Sam's POV*
I didn't sleep a wink last night. I feel terrible. And I know I look it too. I want to head to Nadia's before school to see if she's my mate, and put myself out of my misery. I take the longest , coldest shower possible. It's the only thing that's gonna help, right? I don't bother getting dressed. I have a backpack full of clothes and I walk out of the front door and quickly shift. My wolf is huge. He's chocolate brown with hazel eyes. His name is Hugo. We pick up the backpack and head to Nadia's. I know it all too well. I'll have to steer clear of her garden, if you can even call it that. 'More like a forest,' Hugo chuckles. He's right. Either way her mom would kill me. And if I'm going to take Nadia as a mate, Goddess given or chosen, I need her on my side. Before I know it we're here. I'm so nervous. 'Wolf up,' Hugo chides. I roll my eyes. 'Easy for you to say,' I retort. 'You're actually a wolf.' He shakes his head. 'Go get her Sam!' I think Hugo loves her as much as I do. I shift before chucking on my clothes and heading to the front door. I can hear her inside. I run to the side of the house losing my nerve. 'I'm going to walk today mom! I'm meeting Sam after school so don't wait up!" I hear Nadia yell. "Ok honey, be careful. Ugh, not that hoodie again!" Her mom sighs. I chuckle. Nadia loves that hoodie. It used to be mine until she declared it hers. I love that she loves it so much. She walks out the door and I freeze. I sniff the air to see if she smells any different. Praying to the moon Goddess that I smell something, anything. But nothing. I'm so heartbroken. I shift quickly ripping my clothes to shreds. Hugo lets out a painstaking howl. She's not ours. What the hell am I going to do now?
