-Fifteen minutes earlier~

I didn’t understand why my sister thought she could act however she wanted. We were the future of the pack, and instead of growing up and doing what needed to be done, she continuously acted like a child. Watching her make her way towards her friend Melissa with her hot pink hair swinging behind her, I groaned.

She would be the death of me if I didn’t get her under control.

“Lux! Baby, I missed you!” Ashley’s high pitch voice met my ears the moment I opened my truck door. The girl was gorgeous for sure, and in bed she got the job done, but other than that, she honestly had nothing going for her.

 

“Hey, Ashley,” I replied flatly, watching the disappointment on her face surface at my greeting. It didn’t matter what she did, I couldn’t get behind the overly affectionate shit she was into. It just wasn’t me, and honestly, the last few weeks I had been second guessing why I even had her around in the first place.

Closing my truck door, her slender figure wrapped around my bicep, pulling me closer towards her. She wasn’t the only one to come flocking towards me the moment I arrived at school, but she was the only one to cling to me like a child clinging to its mother.

Something I found to be rather annoying.

“So, I was thinking about the party and I thought maybe we can go shopping after school to pick out our matching outfits. It’s going to be a very big night when the pack is introduced to their future Alpha and Luna together.”

“What?” I muttered, furrowing my gaze at her with confusion. “What are you talking about?”

Giving me a dumbfounded look, she shrugged her shoulders with a small laugh. “Uh-us, being proclaimed the Luna and Alpha of the pack. Did you hit your head this morning or something?”

“No.” I sighed, moving towards the school. “Just don’t get overexcited when there is a chance we may not be mates.”

Gripping my upper arm, she stopped me in my tracks and turned me to face her. “How could you say something like that? Mate or not, we are going to be together. We are good together and you know it.”

Disgust filled me hearing what she said. Mates were a precious thing, and I would only be with my mate in the end. Sure, Ashley and I had hooked up many times. Shit, she wasn’t the only girl I had hooked up with, but at the end of the day my Luna would only be my mate and I didn’t care what Ashley or any of the others had to say about that. “Let’s go. I don’t want to be late for class.”

With the nod of her head, we continued towards the large brick school building in front of us. Ashley and her friends talked about Cassie and my birthday party this weekend as if it was the highlight event of the year.

Which, in the past, it always had been. This year, however, felt

much different.

There was something in the air that felt wrong, and the closer and closer it got to the big day, the more on edge I was with everything. Almost as if my wolf could feel something big was going to happen.

“I’m so excited. I wonder what Cassie is wearing this year.” One of the girls giggled. “I’m sure something sexy for Lucas…”

Ashley quickly hushed the girl as they stifled their laughter, trying not to draw attention to themselves, but I had heard the words the girl spoke and my sister’s and Lucas’ name in the same sentence wasn’t something I was happy about.
