Life as a Werewolf called Danielle.

Chapter 5- The Party.

Me and Chloe spent the day shopping and after what felt like forever and 200 dresses later, I found the perfect pale blue dress to wear for my party, I choose blue to honour my mum it was like my way of bringing her with me. After lunch Selene worked her magic on us, she did our hair, eyebrows, and nails before sending us off to Stacey’s for our makeup. They both refused to take any money from us, and I’d been saving up, so I slipped some into their tip jars while Chloe distracted them. We stopped at the café on the way home and I bought dad a drink to take back.

Back at the house dad had ordered enough pizza to feed a small village but I couldn’t fault his enthusiasm, and Chloe was happily eating away, once we’d stuffed our faces there was still 2 pizzas left so we decided to be nice and take them to Chloe’s house for her brothers, Jack, and Nathan. I swear they were like a pack of hyenas; they were at the table before we even set the pizzas down. Jack always joked that when we both turn 18, we’ll be mates and then he’d get to have my cinnamon buns all to himself. While I loved the sentiment I kind of wanted a mate from another pack or at least another street so I could explore a little, you know live a bit more of life. Every pack is different and maybe I’d find a mate in another pack that was amazing? Who knows? 

Eventually 8pm rolled around and guests were due to arrive, the alpha allowed us to use the packhouse as it allowed parents to carry on as normal and it had enough rooms for anybody who needed to stay over without worry and just get home the next morning. My dad had strongly suggested that I stay even though our house wasn’t that far away, and it’d be easy for me to get home, but he was adamant and if I’m honest I stopped listening to him.

I packed up my stuff, pjs for the night, toothbrush, my squishy teddy and eye mask so I might sleep, I always found it weird sleeping out, as a kid I’d end up ringing to come home at like 3am. Oh, and I packed a bikini for the hot tub. I popped my backpack into one of the rooms on the top floor that Beta had showed me too and headed back downstairs. I don’t know why but I felt nervous, what if no body showed or what if everybody thought the theme was lame and left? I had organised an under the sea theme, I just loved the ocean. My dad said I was too immature for a fish tank, so I just had to keep waiting.

Fast forward to 11pm and the pack house is packed…excuse the word play. Everybody I had invited turned up and then some. Everyone seemed to love the theme and the food, and the drinks were flowing well. It takes a lot for a were wolf to get drunk so most people would reach tipsy and give up. Me and Chloe were in the hot tub enjoying life when Tom and James from college joined us. I’d never really been a fan of Tom, he always seemed off to me or stared like he was undressing me, in short, he gave me the creeps. I was about to ask them to leave when Chloe gave me that ‘ignore them look’ so I decided to ignore them and try and chill. Chloe had a crush on James, so I was doing it for her anyway, eventually it was 2am and alpha started asking people to head home or to bed. Thank God, Tom had spent the last hour talking about all the girls he’d “impressed” with his moves and how they moaned his name, while James and Chloe were all cosy in the hammock. I could still hear her snore though, so god knows what James thought.

With the Alpha’s queue we all began to tidy up and head out, I said my final goodbyes to Chloe and promised to call her in the morning. Then went back to tidying, slowly picking up all the empty bottles, cans and general mess from outside when I looked up and noticed Alpha doing the same at the other side of the pool. “Tell me birthday girl, why are you tidying up?” I looked up at him as I tried to fish a bottle form the hot tub, “oh well you know I’m the main reason for the mess and I won’t fall asleep for a while yet so why not…why are you tidying?” he laughed as he tied up his full bag “Well you see, mess drives me crazy so I wouldn’t be able to sleep until it was at least a little tidy” I nodded and laughed, then motioned for him to pass me his full bag and tied mine up, as I picked them up to carry them inside he grabbed another bag and continued to pick up mess.

I took the bags inside and placed them next to the bin, deciding I may as well go out to the main bins once we’ve picked everything up, as I turned to head back outside.

Then I felt hands on my hips and jumped. I turned around to see Tom staring back at me “what’s up princess, did I make you jump” I scrunched up my nose and let out a laugh “who are you calling princess, and I thought you left anyway?” he leaned his head in closer “no I went up to your room, after all you spent most of the night flirting with me, I guessed you wanted me” I laughed again but before I could say anything more his lips were on me, I tried to push him away but he just gripped me sides harder. I panicked. I pushed and pushed but he wasn’t moving. My dad always said it was last resort, but I had to…I kicked him in the family jewels and tried to run but he gripped my wrist so tight I let out a squeal.

I turned to try and pull my arm from his grip but as I did, he pulled my bikini top off and I was exposed. If I turned now, he would see everything from the waist up, but if I didn’t turn and get myself free then what else would he do. I froze unsure how to proceed but then he sealed his fate, he pulled my body towards his and tried to untie my bikini bottoms. I smacked my elbow into his side and as he loosened his grip, looking to hold his side from the sharp pain, I pulled myself forward, forcing myself to run.

Suddenly I felt woozy and then I heard a voice “Danielle! Tom? WHAT DID YOU DO” and *thud* I was out cold.
