The White Lycan

Her white hair reaches below her waiste as she gently brushes her fingers through the soft waves, her bright emerald green eyes look forward as she returns her mothers gentle smile. Her mother keans forward and curresess her pale white skin in a loving embrace "child, try not to worry so much, it's a simple ball and for all we know perhaps your mate will be there" Auora signs looking away, mate. . A mate. a wolfless she wolf like herself doesn't have a mate. Her mother has always been adament she has an other half waiting for her somewhere. could she dream of such things ? no.. she would be rejected in a heart beat anyway. she might be alphas daughter but without an actual wolf she is practically human. another deep voice breaks her from her thoughts. "Auora ! my sweet girl !" a big smile brands her face as she runs and jumps into her father's arms. . "I've missed my sweet girls! are you all packed and ready for tomorrow?" her fathers pack, white moon has been working close with the royal blue moon pack supplying the best warriors and training for his majesty and his pack. her father travels there for weeks at a time with her older brother and future Alpha to her pack Aiden. "Aiden has stayed behind this time we shall meet him when we arrive."I smile brightly up to my father, he knows how close me and Aiden are, hes been my rock for years since I turned 16 and never shifted. 3 years later with my 19th birthday just around the corner I couldn't imagine spending it without him. I hope hes home in time. . I adore my family, even being such a strong pack they still love me without having a wolf. I turned 18 last month and the pack even held a party for me, my best friend River, Betas daughter suddenly barges in breaking up our little family hug. "River, atleast bloody knock !" my father half heartedly scolds her. with a cheeky grin on her face she bows slightly "Yes Alpha." dad let's out a hearty laught before grabbing my mother by the waist. "That's my que, let's go River. mom, dad, I'm staying with River tonight to give you both... some space. I'll be over and ready at 7am to leave to the royal pack." one last quick cuddle and a kiss planted firmly on both my cheeks making me giggle. . River grabs my arm and excitedly pulls me out the house to the forest edge where we usually sit and hangout. uft, tomorrows going to be a busy day, hopefully I manage to find my brother before the ball and his future beta will probably be with him, Ryan. Ryan always had a crush on me, never even tried to hide it. he often said we would be mates but neither of us ever did feel the pull towards one another. River just turned 18 last week while everyone was away at the royal pack so let's hope her mate will be there. shes convinced she'll find him tomorrow night and I'll find mine. dont get me wrong I'm all for love story's and happy endings but that's exactly what they are, story's. they belong between the pages of books not real life. with a sigh I lie back into the grass looking towards the fleeting sun "We'll see River. Mate or no mate I'm happy." am I thought?
