April 4, Nineteenth birthday

IRENE'S POV
It has been a whole week since my pig sister died and my lowlife mate got locked in the pack cells for trying to save her. The i***t thought that it could outrun a flying angel.
Everything has been going perfect. Even my wolf finally grew silent. Now and then I hear her whimpering. But she no longer threatens to crawl at the Angel Prince. That has allowed me to once more get comfortably close to him.
So far my genius brain has done a marvelous job. What I don't know is what happens after we are married and I can't get bear him children. Will he keep me as his Queen even when he can't feel our mate bond or see my wings? Hopefully he will love me enough to.
"What dress would you like to wear, My lady?!" Doreen, my personal servant, asks sorting out the dresses in my closet.
Today is my nineteenth birthday, almost every member of the pack is here for the party. The idiots expect me to get my angel wings today.
But I know the Angel Prince will still marry me even if I don't get my wings. He is not stupid, but he is overly caring and patient. He will think I will be phasing late, he will be sending maids with nutritive foods for a long time until the day he will actually realise I won't phase into his angel. Then it will be too late.
"Your Majesty? Would you like a white dress?" Doreen asks.
I hate the woman. Everytime I and my friends mocked or hit my pig sister, she always found a reason to leave the room. Sometimes she wore a sad face when Sarah got hurt. All other maids hated and mocked my sister, except her.
Lately, she has been visiting my mate in his cell, whatever they talk, I don't know. I will have to find a reason to get rid of her. But for now, there is a party downstairs waiting for me.
I know the Prince and his royal family is already there. It is the day their daughter in law is supposed to phase, after all.
"I want something more colourful." I say.
"White is a symbol of purity. I think it is the best for an angel. And you have a very well designed white dress right here. I decorated it for you." She says laying the dress on the bed beside me.
The dress is more elegant than any I have ever worn. The gold beads shimmering under the light.
"Yeah, that looks good! Where did you get it?"
"I saw it in a store downtown, asked the Prince if he would like to buy it for you." She answers.
Hmmm! Sounds like I may keep her.
I quickly shower and Doreen helps me put on the dress. She styles my hair in a complex twist before gently applying make up on my face.
"You should gulp down some of that wine I brought you, it will help ease the nervousness." She suggests pointing at a glass of wine she came with.
"I look nervous?" I ask. I am used to feeling confident, I hate looking like my sister.
"Yeah! But it's understandable, it's your nineteenth birthday and the Angel Prince and his family are in the party." Doreen says.
"I will take your wine." I reach out for the glass and quickly gulp down the contents. It tastes delicious but kind of strange. I don't have time to ask for the ingredients of the wine, I can't keep the guests waiting any longer.
I leave the room and Doreen tags behind as we head to the hall downstairs. The hall is already full to it's capacity. There are so many guests, including some from other packs.
Only this pack has an Angel Prince, other kingdom's have alphas. Most of them are allies to this pack. When Isaac phased and became an angel, every king and Prince was here to swear their loyalty to this kingdom. The pack's name was changed from crescent moon pack to Angels Land. It's ridiculous because we have only a single angel throughout the kingdom. That's how rare angels are.
The kingdom has hope of having more, when I bear the Prince children. Ha! Ha! Like that is going to happen. Werewolves don't give birth to angels.
The Angel Prince sees me and approaches, he takes me in his arms and raises me in the air. People clap and cheer. He puts me down and pecks me on the forehead. I Suddenly hear my wolf growl!
I had thought she had given up fighting the Prince, but now I am feeling like she wants to crawl out.
"What?! How did you make that sound?" The Prince asks, his mouth gaping. I smile. "I and my friends used to practice animal sounds, we thought we could make an animal choir one day." I lie.
The hunk laughs, but I still can see some skepticism in his eyes. "You must have been good at it!" He complements.
He takes my hand and pulls me to the table that holds the massive birthday cake. Members of his family and mine surround it, all clapping and smiling.
My friends stands behind them, they are in their best dresses, clapping and even jumping.
What they don't know is what I am going through right now. I am literary fighting shifting, turning into a wolf right before the crowd.
What did Doreen give me?! A hormone stimulant? I know one can't fight shifting if they take any kind of hormone stimulant. It makes one's wolf get extremely wild. Hope Doreen didn't put one in my drink.
If she didn't, then why is my wolf getting out of control. "I want my mate!" She screams in my head. "Tell that awful angel to let go of us or I'll scratch his face!"
"Not now Gigi! Please don't do this now!" I mentally beg her.
"I have had enough of your pathetic love for the wrong man, I am going to free my mate!" She roars.
"No! Please let's talk about this after this party, don't embarrass me!" I tell her.
"f**k your party! My mate needs us." She mutters.
"Please not now!"
I didn't realise that I had stopped walking until the Prince flaps a finger in front of my face. I growl again.
He thinks I am kidding so he smiles and carries on pulling me towards the table. More guests surround us.
"Here, cut the cake, honey!" My future mother-in-law hands me the knife. My hands are shaking, I can't hold it!
"She is so nervous!" My future father-in-law, the king himself, teases.
I look at where Doreen is standing and see a smirk on her face. She did it! She put hormone stimulant in my drink!!!
My mother and father stares at me in confusion, they know I have never been nervous. They have no idea I am a werewolf and not an angel. If I had told them, they would have quit pampering me and started loving my pig sister. I had no option.
"Let me help you!" The Angel Prince says forcing the knife into my hand. His fingers and palm wrap around my hand, holding it in place. That makes Gigi snap!
She lets out a loud growl, everyone jumps back in shock. My friends cover their mouths as Doreen burst out in laughter. I will kill her!
The Angel Prince takes hold of my arm. "Irene? What are you doing?!"
I try to say a single word but my wolf is already taking control. My bornes c***k, my skin turns into fur and my fangs and claws break free! I can't control it!
The Prince jumps back, horror on his face! "I...Irene!...what is..." He is too shocked to make a complete, sensible sentence.
The tattered dress drops to the floor as Gigi stands tall in front of everyone. My parents stumble back, eyes wide and jaws on the floor.
"What have you done?!!" I hear Philly scream.
"Doreen put a hormone stimulant in my drink!!! I am so sorry!" I mind-link her.
"Oh hell! The Prince will kill us! Get the hell out of here!" She replies.
"I can't, Gigi is in control now." I tell her. I see her shake her head.
"I am going to the palace cells to free my mate, wish me good luck!" Gigi says.
"No!" I exclaim but she is already running. Everyone steps out of her way. She leaps over tables until we are out of the room. She splits into a run, guests and the Angel Prince follow us.
But we don't stop until we are standing face to face with the day's guard. "You're not supposed to walk in here in your wolf form. If you want to see anyone, you have to shift back." She woman in uniform says.
Gigi is not in the mood to let me take control once more. She jumps and crawls on the woman's face. The woman falls back, screaming.
Gigi takes the chance to run to her mates cell, bangs at the door.
"Oh! Here you are! My little, evil Irene!" Tony says from the other side of the door.
"I hate you! You and your little friend did this!" I mind link him.
"Yeah, because it is what you deserved for what you did to your little sister! Go away!" He snaps.
I feel mortified! A lowlife, good for nothing man is rejecting me. I, the future Queen. Am I going to be that anymore? Where will I even go?
Doreen really did know the worst way of punishing me. I can't still believe everything fell apart, in a classic embarrassment.
"I, Tony Roberts Rangers, hereby reject you, Irene Macron as my mate!" Tony says and I hear Gigi whipper. She is hurt.
"You did this to us! You rejected our mate first, now he doesn't want to see us!" Gigi accuses.
"He doesn't deserve us!" I tell her.
"No! You don't deserve him! And I don't want to be with you either!" Gigi roars.
"No! We need to get out of here!"
"Do it yourself!" She says and goes silent. I start shifting again to my human form. "Gigi! Get us out of here!" I scream at her but she remains queit.
The Angel Prince and my family bursts into the cell hall first, more guests follow. They all look up at me, still curled up next to Tony's door.
