When I finally got to my room, I rummaged through my closet looking for a suitable and decent dress I could wear, but none was fine enough. “Wait!” Suddenly, I remembered my mom sew me a gown for my coming of age ceremony.its ceremony held once we were reach fifteen years. It was a white gown. I refused to wear it though. A dress like that would have made me the center of attention, something I don't like. I put on the white dress my mom made for me for the first time, and I couldnt help but gasp at how fitting the dress was on my body. I admired myself in a mirror for a few more minutes, something I wasn't really accustomed to doing. But today I had to look perfect, I just had a tinge that my fated mate will be from the Star Raiders pack and will carry me back to his pack so we can live our life. Just as I was admiring myself in the mirror, Crystal barged into my room. Does she not knock? My heart twitched in rage seeing her standing across me. She was really dressed for this. She wore a very high silhouette. And a tight dress, that exposed part of her breasts, and her fine shape. She used some heavy lipsticks on her face, and some intense make up as well. For a second I couldn't recognize her. “Why are you dressing up?” My heart sank at Crystal's question. She really hates me. “What are you doing here Crystal?” I asked, my tone laced with disgust. “Oh! I just wanted to see your face and diss at you one last time!” “What do you mean?” I asked visibly confused. Was she going somewhere? “Oh your dad didn't tell you… I'm the reason the Alpha from the Star raiders pack will be here today. He is looking for a wife, and your Dad handpicked the best, which is me!!” Crystal said. For a moment, I couldn't believe her words. “What? Doesn't he have a fated mate and you too?” I asked still struggling to understand. “NO, he's tired of waiting. And as for me, to hell with my fated mate, he can die for all I care!” Crystal dissed. “Well today I get to leave here and never see your disgusting face again!” And with those stern words, Crystal marched out of my room. I stood frozen for a second. My heart sank in despair. I really didn't care much about Crystal wedding the Alpha, in fact I should be happy, as long as she's far away from me. But what I couldn't believe was that, my father chose his step daughter over his own daughter as Luna to the Alpha. Surely, I must have been adopted or something. No father could treat his own daughter like this. The pain remained fresh in my heart, as I sat for a few hours in my room thinking to myself. “They're here!!!” A loud voice thundered through the whole pack. I heard the loud steps of many horses marching towards our gates. I immediately reached to my window to take a peep. They're they were! Star Raiders pack. They rode on their horses with such elegance. I was left in awe seeing their incredible phisique and their god like faces. I was praying deeply to myself, that my mate would be one of them. I opened the door slightly to see what was going on around. I saw our pack workers in a haste to entertain the guests. I finally decided to step out. The air outside was fresh, the feeling of my finding my mate was still lingering in me. I walked elegantly to the gathering. My high silhouettes making a disturbing noise. The moon hung high above the pack's gathering, casting a silver glow over the clearing. The air was thick with anticipation, a charged energy that always came with the full moon and the seasonal alpha meeting. I was glancing around from one member of the Star Raiders pack to the other hoping one of them could turn out to be my mate. My eyes soon locked on Crystal, she stood beside… The famous Alpha Ryan. Wow! I couldn't believe my eyes. He was so handsome and young. His muscles were a thing of beauty and his jet black hair complimented his incredible figure. They seemed like the perfect couple after all. Wait, what is happening to me? Suddenly I felt a surge of jealousy and envy seeing the. I want them together so Crystal can finally leave me, but then, why do I feel a bit strange seeing them? As Ryan's gaze lingered on Crystal , my chest tightened. I wasn’t sure why, but I couldn’t tear my eyes away from him either. Why is this happening?! My heart thudded erratically in my chest, an unfamiliar sensation creeping through my body. I could inhale the warm scent of fresh roses around me. No! No! This can't be!! Could it? Could he be my mate? But this wasn’t supposed to be my moment. This wasn’t supposed to be my connection. Ryan turned towards me with a confused frown. His golden eyes met mine , and for a breathless second, time seemed to stretch. Everything seemed to go quiet, just a realm with the two of us. A wave of heat surged through me, pulling at my chest, making my stomach flip with a strange, magnetic pull. Alpha Ryan is my mate!!
