Fated to the Female Alpha

My last day

I shake my head and begin to dress I find some jeans that hug my hips just right and a black v neck with a necklace my dad gave me as an early birthday gift. An L in pink and a J in green for Jayce. My fathers been so sweet this whole year. He always asks questions about Jayce and says he wants to get to know his soon to be daughter in law. I can’t help but smile while I touch the necklace. I put my converse on and head to the restroom to do my hair and make up. I use a curling iron for some large curls and apply some clear lipgloss and eyeliner with a little mascara. I give myself a once over and am satisfied with my look today. Glancing at the bedside table my alarm says 9:15 I’ve got some time to kill my last class for the semester doesn’t start until 12. I call Ethan and he picks up after the second ring. “Hey Lex what’s up?” He sounds okay but I can tell he’s sad and tired. “Just checking in how is patrol going? You coming home today?” I ask hoping to sound casual. “I don’t know Lex I’ll try I’m so close I can feel it I can feel her. I feel her pain and her fear and I…” he stops and is just silent on the other end. “We will find her E. We will I know it.” I try to sound confident but it’s been two years since we have seen her. “Yeah.. ill see you later Lex be safe.” The line clicks and he’s gone. We have been at war with the humans for years. We pass very well and can blend in but someone saw her heal too quickly while out one day and a week later she was gone. Snatched from a parking lot. Witnesses say they saw a black van with the plates missing and some big guys in masks jumped out and grabbed her. She tried to fight one off but the second guy picked her up and threw her in the open van. This has been happening more and more often. They started taking women and children mostly thinking we were easier targets. Now most women and children train with our warriors preparing for combat. There’s some rogues that will help out once in a while selling anyone they can catch outside the borders. Despicable ass people. How can you sell your own kind? I shake my head and open my messages. I see one from my mom, rolling my eyes I click on it so she can see I read it. It reads: Dont forget to grab the cake on your way in tonight! 7 sharp!

Who makes the birthday person get their own cake! I shake my head. I still have some time left before I need to leave and knowing the coast is clear I head downstairs. I all but run right into my dad. “Hey!” He says with a big grin. I smile back “Hey dad! How was patrol? Did you see Ethan?“ his smile falls but only a little. He hurts for my brother too. “It was okay kid. I saw him for a bit he said he will be here but might be a little late he’s got an errand. You heading out?” He asks trying to distract me. “Yeah I’ve got my last class and then I’m going to pick up my dress and cake for tonight. Just going to have a quick bite.” I say and grab the cereal box. “Breakfast of champs. Im going to grab a shower and nap I’ll see you tonight baby.” He kisses my head and heads upstairs
