Getting Ready.

*One month later* It was a few days before mine and Lizzy's "ball" that our family was planning. Well over 10 different Alphas are going to be in attendance, as well as their Lunas, betas, and a handful of unmated male and female wolves. We were all hoping that maybe, just maybe a bunch of us would find out mates. I just hoped that mine was within my pack. I would hate to have to leave everyone behind, but as a female wolf, it is common for females to leave their home packs to join the packs of their mates. Such a better sweet moment if you ask me. "Crystal! Time to get up and start the day!" My mother shouted from the kitchen. Our home was at the top of the packhouse. There was mom and dad's room, two offices, 4 bathrooms, and 4 other rooms which belonged to me, my brother and next in line Alpha Thomas, my sister Catie, and little toddler Bruce and Kane. "I'm up!" I hollered out as I hopped off my bed. Two days until I turn 18. I am beyond excited. I was happily dancing in my room when my phone went off. *DING* A text from Lizzy: "Hey, babes! Good morning, my sexy spunky wife. I'll be up in a few for breakfast after my mom lets me out! kisses!" "What a dork," I chuckle to myself as I respond, "lol, see you when you're able." I tossed my phone back on the back as I walked into my walk in closet. That's right, I got a goshdarn walk on closet. What a dream, aha. After grabbing a pair of black leggings and a mint green tank, I threw my hair up into a messy bun and walked out of my room towards the kitchen. "Hey sis!" Thomas called out with a piece of bacon hanging out of his mouth. Mother scolded him as if to silently say, "An alpha doesn't talk with his mouth full!" He skrunk back into his seat a bit with a hint of submission swirling in his green eyes. "Good morning, everyone!" I cheerfully say as I sit down to eat. *loud knocking on the door* "Oh, that must be Lizzy!" I say while standing up. "None of that, you sit back down, and I'll get the door. That girl knows she's allowed to walk in. That's why she was given a key," my mom says with a chuckle as she opens the door. After Lizzy came in and gave everyone a hug, she sat down next to me, and off to the races we went. Thomas and Lizzy highly enjoyed seeing who could eat the fastest for some reason. But we always just chuckled at those two. For wolves, you'd think they were raised in a barn! After breakfast was done and cleaned up, mom and dad went to their offices to make sure everything was set up for our birthday party. After all, it's not every day your little princesses turn 18 and have the chance to find the other half of their hearts! Lizzy, Catie, and I decided to go to the mall to pick out some new clothing for the occasion. Between the three of us, we could easily put a good dent in daddy dearest bank account. But we of course new better and decided we would only get three new outfits each as well as something for lunch. We were accompanied to the mall by three guards. Matthew, who was 20 with sandy blonde hair and yellow eyes. Christian, who was 19, with brown hair and purple eyes, and last but not least, Charlie. We were extremely excited when Charlie was promoted to one of the guards. The first shop in the mall we stopped at was the store Catie wanted to go to. Forever 21. With Catie only being 15, there was plenty of age appropriate clothing for her to try out. While she went off to look for things, Lizzy and I decided to check out the bras. We both picked out matching bra and panty sets because there was a sale, 2 for 5$. Amazing! Once Catie checked out, we went to a few different stores. Lizzy found a beautiful dress from a shop whose name I cannot for the life of me remember. But it was a knee length off the shoulder gray dress that looked ridiculous sexy on her. Hot topic. is where I found my outfits. I grabbed a few tanks, a few tops that were both long and short-sleeved, a few pairs of jeans and shorts, and last but not least, this beautiful black dress that had ruffles at the bottom, a slight V-neckline, and sleeves that hang slightly off the shoulder. Pure perfection in my eyes. After we left the mall, we made it back to the packhouse an hour before dinner time. "Thank you so much for letting me tag along!" Catie happily chirped while sipping on her butterbeer frap from Starbucks. "That's what big sisters are for squirt!" Lizzy started with a smile. "You're more than welcome to tag along with us for any adventure, Catie. You are our favorite little pain in the butt," I giggled while giving her a pat on the head. "Stop that, you're gonna mess up my hair!" Catie squealed as she quickly made her way out of the car. Lizzy and I looked at each other and burst out laughing. "Catie is something else," I said while grabbing my bags from the truck of the car. "That she is, but we love her." Lizzy responded. After grabbing all of our things from our shopping adventure, it was time to wash up and eat dinner with the rest of the pack. The dining hall was massive, and it was decorated beautifully with Christmas lights and little snowflakes. Lizzy and I were born a few days apart and a few days before Christmas. Most families would have lumped up the Christmas baby's birthday presents with their Christmas gifts, but our families decided that it wasn't too much of a stretch for us to celebrate the birthdays and Christmas separately. Everywhere you looked, someone or something was buzzing with excitement and activity. We wolves sure do get excited over big fests. That's for sure! "Good evening pack!" Alpha Samson said loudly. "Good evening!" Everyone loudly responded happily. "As all of you know, tomorrow we will be expecting the arrival of 10 Alphas, their Lunas and betas, along with a handful of unmated wolves." Whistles and cheers cut off the alpha. Chuckling, he held his hand up in order to quiet everyone down. "This is a special occasion since Crystal and Lizzy will be turning 18. Your Luna and I have decided to throw a massive ball in honor of both Crystal and Lizzy, in hopes that they find their mates!" More cheers erupted from the pack members. Smiling, he sat back down after stating, "Now, dig in, everyone!" Through the dining hall, all that could mainly be heard was the clanking of silverware and the sound of chewing and laughter as each table had its own conversations. I glanced around the room with a smile on my face. My family. Once dinner was finished, everyone neatly left their dishes in the kitchen for our kitchen omegas to clean up. Lizzy and I always try to offer help to our staff, but they always insist that we should not lift a finger and that they are very happy to clean up after everyone. I couldn't imagine how any pack could look at an omega and feel like they are scum. Omegas are a blessing, and when treated properly, will happily serve their packs with no complaints. It was around 10 pm when Lizzy and I made our way up to my room. We always have a tradition of having a sleepover the night before our birthday since we were 5. It made it easier for our mothers to keep track of us as well as keep our presents hidden from us. I remember this one time, Lizzy and I tried to sneak back into her living quarters to try and sniff out what we were getting. Needless to say, our dads were waiting for us to walk in. It scared the s**t out of us, but we never tried that again. They even like to bring it up all the time, joking about how loudly we screamed. "Since you're turning 18 at midnight, I am honored that I'll get to be the second person to know your wolf's name!" Lizzy purred with her hand over her heart. "Well, once she contacts me, you'll be the first to know," I said while hitting her with a pillow. "Skank!" Lizzy giggled. "Brat!" I stated back. We stayed up late that night watching shows on Hulu and Netflix. We got hooked on this show called "House broken" on Hulu. We sadly finished it within a day because of how funny and addictive it was. I grabbed my phone to check the time, "12:00am" flashed on the screen. 'Hello Crystal' I hear in my head. 'I'm Bree, your wolf," Bree purred. I smiled to myself. 'Nice to meet you, Bree. I can't wait to see how you look!' 'And I, my dear human, cannot wait to show you,' and with that, I drifted off to sleep.
