Brella POV
I sat on my bed, my eyes locked on the two shaking sticks in my hand, both telling me I was pregnant, I thought about my mother, my useless mate... I thought about how it happened.
***
"Are you coming to my house for the party tonight?" My best friend, Lily asks. It is the last day of our senior year and Lily decided to throw a big party at her house. Especially since her parents are away, it’s going to be a pretty crazy and wild party. I would really much prefer staying home watching my favourite movie. I open my mouth to turn her down but She cut me off short.
"Bree please come." She begged, using my nickname. "I already asked your mom, plus my cousin's coming to visit and I want you to meet him." She added. I stared at her observing her short brown hair, her big brown eyes and her pointed nose and full lips, her pale complexion similar to mine looked so smooth. To say Lily is a beauty is an understatement. She’s the most beautiful girl I’ve ever met before and trust me, I’ve met a lot of girls.
"Fine, Lil' I'll come but only because you asked my mom," I said. She smiles excitedly, I roll my eyes and link my arm with hers.
"Come on then, let's go and get ready." She said dragging me to her house. Heaven help me.
The party was in full swing, kids were dancing to the music while others were making out all over the place. I wouldn't have been surprised if I saw anyone having s*x, what with hormonal teen werewolves all over the place.
I looked around the room trying to find Lily with no such luck and I couldn't single out her scent properly with all these wolves here. I was getting annoyed at guys touching my butt. I was getting too much attention in this outfit, Lily actually made me wear a short black pleated skirt with a white linen top with white pumps. Although I actually liked the outfit when I looked at myself in the mirror, now though, I just want to tear the clothing off and put on something different, that's why I wanted to find Lily.
Sighing I gave up and went into the kitchen to get something to drink. I didn't know why, but I felt my wolf getting excited and anxious as I felt someone's presence behind me.
''Hey beautiful, could you help me find my cousin?''
A deep voice asks behind me, I then felt his hand on my butt. I spun around already tired of people grabbing my butt, I look up to tell the j******f but I found myself staring into the most beautiful hazel eyes.
My wolf kept shouting ''Mate, mate!'' in my head as his hazel eyes glistened, he too realized what was happening. A smile crept onto my face as I took in the way he looks, his husky blonde hair made him look like a bad boy, he was wearing black jeans and a white fitted t-shirt, which made me drool. I love guys in white t-shirts and he looked just so damn yummy. I can’t believe I actually found my mate.
After staring at his chest I found my way back to his gorgeous face and blushed when I saw him smirking knowingly at me. We stood there staring at each other like there was no tomorrow. After a while, he asked me to dance to which I said yes all too willingly.
''Hmm, you smell so good, babe.'' He said breathing down my neck making me shiver in anticipation, my wolf was going crazy with want. I took a deep breath and his scent was toxic to me “Hmm it's getting hot in here let's go upstairs for a while.'' I said and in less than ten minutes we were upstairs in one of the guest rooms, making out aggressively. That night we made love exploring each other bodies and getting to know each other.
I woke up the next morning to find no mate. Jumping out of bed I wasn’t worried, I figure he probably left to use the bathroom or maybe get breakfast until saw a letter on the pillow and I picked it up. What I read in the letter broke my heart into pieces.
I'm sorry but I don't want you as my mate. What we did was a mistake.......
My hands tremble as I felt my heart breaking with every word written on the paper. I don't know what hurt the most; the fact that he said he didn’t want me or when he said what we did was a mistake. I left Lily’s house after finally gathering myself. I was too ashamed to tell her anything even though she was my best friend. I haven’t spoken to her in weeks.
I heard a soft knock on my door breaking me from my thoughts. I look up to find my mother’s head poking through my door: she had a look of concern. “Is everything ok honey? You’ve been up here for a while and I thought I smelled something fun-” My mom was cut short as her eyes landed on the two pregnancy tests. s**t!! I was so caught up in my thoughts I forgot to put them away. My mom pushed the door open more widely as she takes a sniff of the air, her face changed from concern to realization. The funny smell was coming from me now that I'm pregnant
''Brella is there something you should tell me?'' She asks eyeing me suspiciously. I knew she already figured it out but just wanted to hear the words from out my mouth. I looked at my mom she was smaller than me, I got my height from my father and also his green eyes while my mother has brown eyes. The only thing I got from her was her midnight black hair. My big brother Max looks more like my mother.
“Mom I can explain.” I started before she starts freaking out. Her eyes turn to slits as she looks me in my eyes. I knew this was going to be hard telling her what happened, but I know I had to do it, taking a deep breath.” I met my mate a few nights ago.” I quickly said. I saw her eyes register with understanding. When you met your mate it's almost impossible to resist the urge to mate.
There was a long pause and the air felt thin.
“Does he know about the pregnancy?” My mom eventually asks. I looked at her with sad eyes and shook my head. '' And why is that? He needs to take responsibility.” She added. A tear slipped from my eyes as I answer her question.
“He... he doesn't know because he rejected me the next day after we mated.” The tears were flowing freely down my face now. My mom rushed to my side comforting me like when I was a child. I happily lean into her. “I don’t know his name or which pack he’s from. Mom, I don’t know what to do.” I said between sobs.
''It’s ok honey, everything will be alright.'' She said. I was glad I told my mother everything but I knew If I stayed it would bring shame to my father’s name as Alpha. After a while listening to my mother soothing words I fell asleep in her arms............................................................................
