Percy POV
My name is Percy Haven, son of the Alpha and Luna of The Muskoka Haven Moon Pack. I'm 18 years old and it's been a week since I've been home from Alpha Training camp. I've been away from the pack for three years.I got my wolf at Alpha training camp on my 18th birthday. His name is Clover. He is amazing, smart and sometimes funny! Since I have returned, I have been training with my father to know the ins and outs of looking after the pack. I got up this morning just really happy and so was my wolf because today is a special day. Macy Jackson is coming home and it's her birthday today. My parents told me when I came back a week ago that she was returning to the pack next week. To take care of some things, experience her first shift and find her mate. Macy Jackson has been my long-time crush since high school. When we were little, I didn't see her that way, her head was always in a book. As for me, I would always hang out with Patty and the triplets and my best friends Ned (who is to become my future beta) and Gordan ( who is going to be my future gamma). As we started getting older, I started seeing Macy in a new light. When she was 12, she started volunteering at our pack hospital and started helping out at our pack daycare. She is so amazing! As for me, my father started my alpha training when I was 11. I train with my friends and the pack warriors everyday. I also got to see Macy's parents training as well. They were amazing warriors for our pack. In high school, Macy just became more lovely and more beautiful. As for me, I dated Patty on and off all through out high school. Clover really did not like Patty at all. She was so fake and stuck up, and was telling everyone that she was going to be the future Luna of the pack. Which was completely bogus because I never told her that at all. Honestly, Patty wasn't so stuck up when we were little. She was a nice and very kind girl. But as she got older, her and the triplets all became stuck up. It was because they think they are better than everyone else, because their families are high-ranked officials. I tried many times to talk to Macy, but we were both busy teens in high school. Me with sports, Patty, and my friends. Macy, the quiet girl who kept to her studies,volunteer work, and nothing else. I really think that she is going to change the supernatural world and the human world someday. I know she has a friend, Rachel Dawn, who I've seen her hang out with a couple of times at her place. How do I know that? I may, from time to time, see them walking to her house together as they sometimes eat at the pack house when her parents are on patrol. I so wish I had the courage to talk to her, but guys like me (popular with the ladies, amazing in sports, and friends with everyone I meet) don't get the girl who is smartest girl in school. It has always been in the back of my mind that I had strong feelings for Macy, because I thought that she might be my mate. On the night that her parents died, I broke up with Patty again and said it was the final straw. Patty was becoming too needed, always whining, and always asking for new stuff and asking if we could have s*x together, but I always told her no. Your probably wondering why? Patty was a very attracting girl when we were growing up. But when my feelings for Macy started to emerge, I just didn't see Patty in that way anymore. Plus, I wasn't going to give away my virginity to just any girl, only my mate. That's right, I am a virgin! I am saving myself for my mate. I know most male wolves want to fool around before they find their mate, but not me. So when I broke up with Patty, I mustered up all my courage and went to Macy's house. To tell her that I liked her and was going to ask her out. But then the rogue attack happened. There were five people who died in that attack that day. Macy's parents were among those people. I did get to say a few words to her, to give her my condolences and sorry for her loss. She looked so heartbroken and sad. It was breaking my heart that she was now all alone. Macy didn't have any other family, according to my parents. My parents even suggested that she should move into the pack house so that she wouldn't be alone, but she didn't want to leave her parents' house. The house that she grew up in with her mom and dad. The confessing that I liked her, going out with her, and making her my girlfriend plan would have to wait. I wanted to give her some time and space to grieve and mourn her parents. If I had known that she would graduate early and leave the pack to go to college/university. I would maybe have asked her after her first week of mourning. I went to her house at the beginning of her second week of mourning, only to find her gone. I found out from my parents that she left the night before. They told them before she left, that she graduated school early, got her scholarships together to pay off most of her tuition fees, got all the money that her parents put aside for her, packed up her stuff and left. It seems Macy talked with my parents in private after the funeral to tell them that she was leaving at the beginning of the second week. That she would leave the night before when everyone was in bed. My parents tried to convince her to stay, but she was adamant about leaving. She was only staying because of her parents. Now she doesn't need to stay anymore because they were gone. She said she did get into the college/university of her choice last year, she was just holding off because she wanted to stay with her parents just a little longer. When I found out that she had left, I went to Rachel Dawn's house and asked if she knew, but she didn't know? "We are good friends. How could she not tell me that she was leaving"? said Rachel. Then she gave me a weird look and asked, Alpha Percy, why do you care if she is gone, do you like her or something?" she said, looking at Percy curiously. Percy didn't want anyone to know about his major crush on Macy, and that she could possibly be his mate. Giving Rachel a stern look and releasing just a little bit of his aura, she bent her head down in submission. He wanted to make sure if he was blushing he didn't want her to see, or spread gossip about the future Alpha having a crush on a certain she-wolf that a lot of people called her the book nerd. He needed to get his thoughts about Macy under control. "No, I am worried about a pack member who just lost her parents two weeks ago , and has now gone alone into the human world for school? How dare you ask me this, never bring up me having a crush on Macy ever again. Do I make myself clear?"Percy said in a stern Alpha toned voice. "Ye..yes..yes Alpha I'm sorry Alpha, I won't ask that question again, said Rachel's voice, a little scared and still bowing her head to her future Alpha. "Good", said Percy and pulled back his aura and told Rachel he could look at him. Rachel looks up at her future Alpha. "You can go back to work, Rachel, and have a good day", said Percy. Rachel bowed and said, "thank you Alpha, I will take my leave now", and she hurriedly walked away.
That was 3 years ago. These past 3 years I have always wondered how she was doing, where she was, would she ever come back to the pack? After 3 years and in 3 days, I will finally see her again, and find out if she is in fact my mate. After I had breakfast, I decided to go to the training grounds to do some training and to take my mind off Macy.While I was training with the warriors of the pack, my wolf Clover was quiet as I took a short break after 2 hours of non-stop training. He usually isn't that quiet. He loves giving me pointers on how to fight in battle and loves to speak his mind. "Hey Clover, is everything okay, you're not usually this quiet?" I ask." I feel like something is gonna happen soon", says Clover. "Is it something bad , is there going to be an attack?" I asked my wolf. No, nothing bad, something wonderful, said Clover. Before I could ask anymore questions, Clover retreated to the back of my mind. When training was over, I got my stuff and headed over to the training exit door. As I was about to open the door that led outside. I wondered what was going to happen soon, and why had it made Clover so happy?"
3 days later
Macy POV
After sleeping in a motel for one night, having a few red bulls to keep myself awake for another night and then sleeping in another motel a few hours away from the pack. I was finally close to home. The trees that I pass by I recognize as I then turn on to a dirt road to a private property. Then I arrived at the pack gates. The pack gates were 20 feet high and there was an aluminum dual swing gate. I saw 2 warriors at the gate that I recognized to be some of my parents' friends. I stopped a few feet away from the gate as one of the warriors(I think his name is Jet) came to see who was in the car. I pressed the automated button to get my window to go down. (Jet) "As I live and breathe Macy is that you?", he said. "Hey Jet", I said (I didn't really get to know my parents' friends cause I was either studying or my head was in a book) " Its been a while, its good to see you. How have you been?", he asked. "I'm okay," I said a little shyly. I really didn't want to go into details about what I've been doing in the past 3 years. I just wanted to go to my home. (Jet)"So what brings you back home, are you here to stay?" (Macy)"Not sure yet? I just have a few things to take care of while I'm here". (Jet) "Okay sweet girl, I'll let the Alpha know you're here". Then Jet's eyes look so far away, and that is how I know he is mind-linking someone, who I know is the Alpha. After a few minutes, Jet looked back at me. "You can go right on in Macy. The Alpha says that he will stop by at your parents' place later", said Jet."Thanks Jet", I said politely. The other warrior took a small remote out of his pocket and pressed a button on the remote. Soon, the doors automatically opened. I said goodbye to Jet as I drove into the pack. As I was passing by the gate, I nodded my head to the other warrior. He nodded back, and I drove on. It seems I had come back to the pack during dinner time because no one was outside, so everyone must be in the pack dining hall for dinner. I drove for about 5 minutes to my house, which was the last house that led straight into the forest area of our pack.
Patty POV
No one knows that Macy is back except the two guards at the gate, and the Alpha and Luna. Dinner has just finished.
I was looking for my ex-boyfriend Percy Haven, future Alpha of the pack, to beg him that we should get back together. I want to be the Luna of this pack. I was humming because I was in a great mood, because I knew we were going to be back together. It's our thing. I was going to find him and ask him to take me back. We always break up for a couple of weeks, then get back together. I knew after dinner he would probably be in the gaming room with his best friends, his future beta Eddie and his future gamma Gordan (since the current Beta and Gamma had only girls, Percy was able to choose his own Beta and Gamma). I got to the game room and there he was playing pool with his best friends. I knew it, I thought. Before I got to the game room, I made sure to have my game face on. I redid my makeup in the bathroom. Made sure my hair was in a nice ponytail with some lose strands beside my face. I was wearing a black sequined tank top and was wearing black jogging pants that had the words bootylicious in gold sparking letters on the butt of the pants. I went over with my hips swinging back and forth in a seductive way to the pool table, and in my sweet cute voice I said "Hey Percy, can I talk to you for a second pleaseeee"? Percy looked a bit annoyed, but I didn't care. He grabbed my hand and led me out of the game room. Right beside the gaming room was the washrooms and in the middle there was a little empty space, so we went there. As we got there, he let go of my hand, and let out an annoying breath and said, "what do you want Patty"? (Patty) I want us to get back together, come on were good together Percy. (Percy) Are you for real? (Patty) Oh come on Percy baby were good together, you know we are. No we are not good together. We were never good together.(Percy)You know what happens when we get back together? It's great and then you start complaining, Patty? You complain, asking me why I don't want to lose my virginity with you? Then I keep telling you that I am saving myself for my mate. Plus, we both know you're not my mate because your birthday was a couple of weeks ago. That's when I also remember how I gave you a gift card to your favorite shopping mall in town. I didn't feel the mate bond and neither did you, but somehow you said that you wanted to lose your virginity to me as a birthday present, he sighed. We started fighting after the party, then after that we broke up, Percy finished just looking really tired and annoyed. (Patty)sighing, "Okay fine, I'm sorry, even though we are not mates we can be chosen mates? Percy looked at me wide-eyed looking at me like I was nuts and said, "No I do not want a chosen mate, only my fated mate Patty!" (Patty) "Come on Percy, seriously it's been 3 years and you still haven't found her yet? Maybe she died or got killed or.. Before I could finish my sentence, Percy grabbed me by the throat. When I saw his eyes, they were all black, which meant Clover his wolf had taken over. (Clover) "Listen to me you s**t! I don't want you as my mate, nor do I like you at all. The only mate I want is my fated mate that was promised to me by the moon goddess. So get it through your thick skull, we are done. I never want to see you trying to get back with Percy ever again. Do I make myself clear girl?", said Clover in angerliy gruff voice. "Ye.ss Al..ph.a !", I tried to say with his hand still wrapped around my throat. (Clover) "Good!" Then Clover released me and I saw Percy's eyes turn back to normal. Tears started to form in my eyes and I turned around and ran away. The game room was a separate building, so I ran out the front door. I was walking and wiping my tears. I was so angry. How dare he tell me to leave me alone and that we were done! Damn his dumb wolf! I wasn't seeing where I was going, when I accidently bumped into the Luna and the Alpha. "ofo" I said as I fell to the ground. Luna Joy went to help me back up, "Oh my dear I'm so sorry are you all right", she asked. "Yes I'm fine Luna. It was my fault I was not paying attention to where I was going.", I told her. Alpha Philip was behind Luna Joy holding a couple of packages in one hand, and he grabbed her by the waist with the other hand to hold on to her. I wonder if I would ever get that, I thought. No no, no, the end game is Percy. You want to be Luna. That is the end goal. There is no other guy for me but him. My wolf, Wendy, whimpers in my mind, but I ignore her. I know she wants us to wait patiently for our mate, but I don't want to. What if he's a simple warrior or worse, an omega? I parish the thought of that. I cleared my thoughts and asked them where they were heading off to. "We are heading to the Jacksons' house", said Alpha Philip. I looked at both of them confused and asked,"Oh, why are you both heading over there? The place has been abandoned since Macy left 3 years ago". (Luna Joy) "Oh dear you haven't heard, oh of course you haven't heard only the patrol guards and the Alpha and myself know? (Patty) " "Know what?" Well, Macy Jackson has come back home". I stood there wide-eyed for a few seconds, then got my composure back. Then in my sweetest voice I said,"Macy is back, well that is just so wonderful". (Luna Joy) "Yes it is, I do hope she stays", said the Luna with a big smile on her face. "Well then you have a goodnight Patty", said the Alpha. I bowed my head and said "thank you Alpha and Luna, you both have a nice night as well". When they left, I was so mad that I had my hands balled up in fists. I was sped walking home. When I got home, my parents were watching TV on the couch in the living room. They both said hi, but I didn't respond. I just hurried up to my room and closed the door. I was walking back and forth. I was seething mad. Macy Jackson was back in the pack. What in the actual f**k was she doing back in the pack, I thought?
Patty POV continues (talking about the past)
Back in high school, I was the Queen Bee with my girlfriends May,Tay,and Kay, the gamma of the pack triplets. Everyone in the school respected me and feared me , except for one person, Macy Jackson. Her face was always in a book. She didn't really have any friends except for Rachel Dawn. Who I think was only her friend because she helped her with her homework, but I don't think Macy knew that. Me and my girls always made fun of her, not fight her. Why? Because me and my friends always wore famous designer clothing and had our nails and hair done to perfection. My dad is the Beta of the pack. My dad gets me whatever I want, I am his little princess after all. He can't deny me anything. I did get some other girls who would do anything for me to push her around a bit, give her a few scraps here and there. But no matter what I did, she would brush herself off and just get back to learning something new in her book. She liked that girl, Belle from Beauty and the Beast, UGHH! I hate her so much, and that's not even the worst part. I suspected that Percy had a little crush on her before she left, and that did not sit well with me. When Macy's parents died and she graduated early and left the pack, I was relieved, overjoyed in fact. Now she's back?
Back in the present.
I was pacing around my room wondering about something that got me a little on edge. Percy has shown signs that he likes Macy and wants to be more than just a friend, when we were in high school. Macy on the other hand, did not give him the time of day because her head was always in a book, but I have seen her on some occasions when I saw her glance at Percy for a few seconds and then go back to her book. I think she was hoping no one had seen her catching a glance at Percy. But I did notice. This was racking my brain as I was pacing in my room. Then I stopped pacing and my eyes widened and then I had a thought: could it be possible that Macy and Percy are mates? She left before her wolf manifested, and she would only be able to sense her mate on her birthday. I went to my bed and lay down face first on my bed and just screamed in my pillow. No it can't be, it f**king can't be, they can not be mates! I thought. If they are mates, this is going to ruin all my plans of becoming Luna, and I can not have that. I need to find Macy and ask her straight out what she thinks about Percy. Nobody, and I mean nobody, is gonna steal the Luna title from me. Not even the bookworm Macy Jackson. It was pretty late and it was 5 minutes before midnight, but I didn't care, I had to know if Macy and Percy were mates. If they were, I would use all my dirty and unhanded tricks to break them apart.
