Destiny Finder (complete)

My day at school

Hello again, as you know I am Aleena, I am now 16 years old, going to my 17-birthday next month, not incredibly happy about that because of the Chosen Mate Ball. Yap, this year is our year to choose a mate, but we are eleven werewolves, and I know I am going to be left out.

Oh! My wolf is called Orianna, it was a shock when I got her to say the least. I always thought I was different, and I would not have a wolf, but she appeared on my 16 birthdays, like everyone else. She can sense the smells also but it confuses her because she knows we are only supposed to smell our mate. When she told me that, I had an idea, but before I shared it with her, I had to do some research. I spend a lot of hours in the library, they already know me, because I do a lot of herbs and plant research, so it was normal for me to be there every time I found a new herb, plant, or flower in the forest. I could even make remedies with plants, that help my family sometimes, and others from the pack that found out.

And after days of going to the library, I think, I found why I can smell the scent of everyone. I found out that to us our mate as a certain smell that is how we find them, and after that is the sparks we feel once we touch them and if I was right I could sense the mates. Because I always smell two scents but one is the same and the other is not, so that means the different smell is their unique scent, and the equal one is because they are mates. That scent changes according to their mate, a second-chance mate could smell something different than the first-choice mate.

This time I was trying to figure out something else, I was leaving the library with my thoughts and bumped against someone, the person did two steps back and I went to the floor on my butt. “I am deeply sorry I was not paying attention," I said while look at the person in front of me. My history teacher, that was coming into the library, and the smell of Jasmin and Pine was all over me. I was paralyzed by it and was looking intensely at the teacher's eyes.

“Are you fine? That was a big fall.” I shook my head. “Yes.” Trying to get up.

She gave me a hand and in no time, I was on my two feet. Everyone here at school is werewolves, we do not accept humans or any other species, and that is because of the school in inside our territory.

“Is going to hurt for a while.” While I dust my behind. "Be careful, you got lucky it was with me.” She gave a big smile. “Thank you.” I smiled back. “Your welcome! Now up to class.” She entered the library. I got my stuff from the ground and stroll back to my class. The whispers started right after that scene, by the afternoon there is going to be an awful rumor about me I bet.

Class passes by normally, the normal side-eyes every time I passed by the usual push along the corridor, the murmurs. And by lunchtime, I was the talk of all the school, easy to find out, when you enter the cafeteria, and everyone becomes quiet. “Hey, sis heard you beat a teacher up.” Alan. “That is not true.” Remember him? My big brother by a week or so. “Yeah, I know. Thought you maybe need some back up at lunch." I shoot him a playful glare. "That is going to ruin your reputation.” He shrugs. “Like anything is going to ruin that. They still stuck at me like flies.” I laugh at that, he is right, they only care about him being the next Gamma.

And talking about flies. “Alan, I know she is your sister, but you will not be chosen to be the Gamma of the pack going around the Smelly Aleena, it might get the scent on you.” Taya and the other T’s – Talia and Tory arrived.  He puts his arm around my shoulder. “And that concerns you why?” Eyebrow up at her. “Once I become Luna, I cannot have this type of weirdos in the pack.” She points at me with her lollypop.  “That is why you will not be Luna of the pack Taya, Asli will be.” I spat at her. “Still with that talk, don’t tell she smells like him.” Tory spats back. “That dead fly can’t even defend herself.” She does big gestures capturing attention from the people nearby. “I am just better than her. And I will be Luna, my parents already talked to the Alpha for the next Chosen Mate Ball.” Alan interrupts.  “Enough with that ladies, we are going to get some food. Come sis I have a table for both of us.” He picked my arm before I could talk dragging me out of there. He senses I was going to lose my temper with them. We are fake twins as they told in the hospital, but he can still feel my feelings.

“Those sl**s, already arranging things.”  Once we sit at an extremely far away table. “Little Sis just tell me if one of those is my mate, so I can reject her, please. You do that for me right, give me a warning.” Looking at me with puppy eyes. “I do not need to tell you who she is.” I smile looking at him.

My brother and my wolf are the only ones I talk about my findings, and the only ones that believe in me.” If I did not see for myself what you did for Ginny last week, I was still a little hesitant, because the Mate Bond is a Myth, for a long time we did not have anyone sensing it.” I do not know how much time I can hide this. “That is because that stupid Chosen Mate Bond is interrupting the cycle.” He puts the food on the table.  “And there comes Aleena with the capability of smelling the Mate Scent.” I glare at him. “SHHHHssshhh! You know what will happen if the Alpha finds out. I will be put in the cells.” He looks at me, hands not leaving the food. “I bet Ginny can take you out of the pack." And takes a bite of his hamburger. "This is my home." I look down at my food.  "And I will miss you.” He smiles with a little pickle in his teeth. I laugh and we quietly eat your lunch. I remember just last week.

Flashback

Everyone on the pack was busy.  Alpha Glen was coming to our pack, to have a meeting with Alpha Oscar, and early in the morning everything had to be prepared, Alphas do not stay in the territory of each other for long, only for meetings and nothing more. No lunch or dinner, those etiquettes were lost long ago, due to the constant effort of keeping the packs safe. The higher ranks could never leave the pack for too long, so the Alpha had the appointment after lunchtime. The morning was the only time for everything to be in order.

We all had lunch as normal since the packhouse was with a lot of people because of the preparation everybody eats there. It was easier, one of the Omegas that was making the dinner is Ginny, she was 37 years old, and her Chosen Mate died trying to protect her from a rogue attack when they were having a picnic in the woods, the pack patrol came in time to save Ginny from being r***d by them. Her Chosen Mate was dead.

She became quiet because of that, the link with a chosen mate is not the same as the link with a destined Mate, 80% of werewolves live, because the pack tries to find another for them, but she was too much traumatized to deal with a werewolf after almost being r***d.

The packhouse was quiet as everyone left soon as the pack warrior's mind linked telling Alpha Glen was arriving. The only remaining for the reception was the Alpha, Luna, and son, Beta, Beta wife, and son, Gamma in command and her wife, and my brother and me.

Once we saw the three SUVs park in front of the Packhouse, we stand in front of the door, Alpha and Luna in the middle. The 3 doors opened, and it hit me. A scent I have smelled before, Orange and Musk, I know that smell. I froze and my brother sense that he already knew that when I froze is because I smell something. When the introductions began, he poked me so that I would wake up from it.

Everyone was introduced and we got inside.” Sis, you are being weird, why are you sniffing the air?” I tried to figure out who had that scent. “I sense a scent I know, Orange and Musk.” He sniffs the air. “I don't smell a thing.” I push him down do I can speak in his ear. “Alan do you know if anyone from the Alpha committee is Un-Mated?” My brother was a gossiper. “That will be a wild chance. But I will try to figure out.”

He got close to dad and asked if anyone was un-mated. “Son, I thought you liked girls.” Looking at him weirdly. “Is just curiosity dad, and I do like girls.” He fought for his dignity. I laugh internally. “Hmm, last I heard the Beta lost is Chosen Mate a month ago.” Father looks at the staircase.  “Thanks, dad.” He came back to my side with me looking everywhere beside him and dad, that was still looking at him with an eyebrow up. When he saw Alan next to me, he sighs and went on up to the meeting. “Sooooo?” I nudge Alan to speak.  “The Beta lost is Chosen Mate a month ago.” I clap my hands. “That must be it.” I rush off to the back where the kitchen is and sniffed the air. “I knew it.” Alan appears behind me. “You know what?" I turn back to him and pick up his arm.  "Come on.” I run to the back door and follow her scent, dragging my brother with me.  “Aleena where are we going? You know we must be there once the reunion it’s over.” I did not look back at him.  “We are almost there.” Running with him following me.

I sudden stop at a little cottage with a garden all over it, and a lot of different flowers, Alan almost bumps me. I knock on the door and Ginny opened it, I sniff her out, Roses and Oranges, and she looks at me strangely. “Is anything wrong miss, did I leave the kitchen dirty?” She starts to fidget with her fingers.  “No, everything is fine," I said with the biggest smile I could have. “Then why are you here?" She asks shyly. "Yes, sis why are we here?” My brother looks at me eyebrow up. “Ginny, please don’t think I am crazy, but if I told you that I found your Destined Mate.” And I take a deep breath waiting for her response. “Miss, that is not possible. I already had my Chosen Mate.” She looks down at her hands.  “I’m not talking about that. I am talking about Moon Goddess designated Mate only for you, your happiness, your world, your new life." I look at her with the hope that she understands." Is not possible, a Moon Goddess Mate is a Myth.” She looks at me tilting her head a little to the right.  “Well then, I found your Myth! Please Ginny come with me to the packhouse." I was excited talking fast, I just wanted her to come with me.  "Miss, even if that was true. He will not want someone broken like me." Her eyes expressed deep sadness. "Ginny you have every right to be happy, please, believe me, he will not reject you," I speak with the sweetest voice I can do. "Miss!” I stump my foot down. “No Miss. You are coming with me." My brother grabs me before I can grab Ginny. "Allena, wait! How are you going to do that, are you going to barge in the Pack House and say, ‘hey this is your Mate’ everyone will think you are crazy.” I shoot glares at him.  “Why? Is true, they are destined.” He was making me angry. “Sis, think, they will never let you speak, and you will end in the cell and Ginny too." The poor girl started shaking. "Miss, I do not want to go to the cells.” I look at her and back at my brother. “Perfect, now you scared her.” I started passing.  “Sis, think, it cannot be on the packhouse.” I stop. “OK, ok so where?” After a few seconds of thinking.  “Why don’t we cross their path when they are leaving. You and I will stop the cars, Ginny will stay hidden until we tell her to come out.” Alan speaks making me smile.  “Ok that is a plan, but where?” He starts to think again. “The place that tree fell last year because she was old, they must slow down because of depression it caused on the road.” That is why my brother is the perfect gamma. He finds a solution, always.  “OK” I turn to her. “Ginny, are you up to being happy, do you trust me?” She is still shaking but her eyes go to mine. “Yes, Miss I do.” Her wolf is giving her courage. “When I mind link you, you run in your wolf form to that place. Bring a pack of clothes, and wait for us.”
