(Caleb's birthday after the title of being alpha was given to him)
Caleb's POV
Xavier, my wolf, hasn't stopped bugging me, telling me to go to our supposed-to-be mate.
"Stop it!" I told him in my head. He, in return, snarled at me.
"Why won't you go to mate?" He said angrily.
"Because I've already chosen my mate, Regina, she's my mate," I told him. I greeted the pack, who wished and congratulated me. I try to avoid looking at her table and her friends.
Xavier was scratching my head, causing a little headache. "Well, she is MY MATE!" He screamed.
I shut my eyes firmly and breathed. Xavier was really causing trouble. "Well, I DON'T WANT HER!" I shouted at him. "And I already rejected her," I informed him.
"You what?!" He screamed. "Why?! How could you do that to our mate?!" His circling in my head. "When?" He asked. "When did you reject her?"
I round every table to ask every pack if everything is okay with the food and drink. As I keep on talking with my angry wolf inside my head.
"Five years," I told Xavier. "I rejected her five years ago." I went to the buffet table to pick up some food and drinks. "When I was fifteen."
"Five years ago?! You met our mate five years ago and you rejected her?!" He was surely surprised.
I sipped on the drink I got. "Yeah," I said to him, "why would I want an ugly girl as my mate? She doesn't fit to be Luna of the pack." And I gazed at her. She laughed innocently with her friends.
A guy beside her put his arm on her shoulder. The gesture made me almost growl. I shake my head.
"I want my mate!" He continues. "Let me go to mate!"
Irritated, I blocked him and put a wall between us. I'll deal with him later. "Do not block me up!" He screamed angrily. But I ignore him and continue with my social life.
A few minutes later, I feel my head getting heavy and suddenly everything turns black. I had a blackout.

Quincy's POV
The party starts again after the alpha apologizes for his sudden growling.
Everyone's enjoying the party. The food and drink are great. Especially alcohol. Oh yeah! Werewolves don't get drunk that easily!
"Guys!" Wayne called to us. Behind him is a man, older than us, and with his build, I can say that he is a warrior. "I'd like you to meet someone." He said and was grabbed the man by his shoulder.
"Who's the guy, Wayne?" Emily asked.
"This is my cousin, Winston" he introduced the guy. "Hi," said Winston. "And these are," he started pointing to us, "Alicia and Emily" our friend, who is near him. "That guy," he pointed at Garret, "is Garret and beside him is his mate Heather" the couple smiled at him, and lastly he looks at me. "And that girl, who you've been staring at this whole night," he teased the guy, and boy, the poor guy blushed through his ear, "is Icy."
The group starts teasing me, Alicia and Emily being the leaders of the cheers.
Winston extended his hands to me for a shaking hand. "Winston, but you can call me Win," he introduced himself.
My friends continued their teasing as I extended my hand to shake his hands, "nice to meet you," I said. "Wanna sit with us?"
He smiled and said, " Yes, thank you." He sat beside me and the teasing grew louder and with laugher.
Wayne and Garret bump their fists. He sits back in his chair.
We started chatting lively when, suddenly, we all felt a sudden heavy pressure in the air.
"Do you feel that?" Emily asked. She has difficulty breathing.
Garret embraced his mate, his protective instinct kicked in as he felt like there was a danger in his surroundings.
They all gasped and looked behind me. I heard a growl from behind. They all bear their necks to that person.
"Hurts!" Willow said inside. "Something's coming and it's hurting us."
"Will you be alright?" I asked her.
"Yes, I will be." She assures me.
My arm was suddenly grabbed and I was forced to stand up. That person turned from me and my jaw dropped open when I saw who it was.
"Alpha Caleb," I said.
His eyes were black, "come with me" he said.
Heather suddenly stands up, "NO!" She shouts, "don't come with him." She said.
This angers Alpha Caleb and growls at her. My friend cowers back, Garret stands in front of his mate, bearing his neck to the alpha.
"Caleb" he calls him, but he was growled at by Caleb, "Alpha Caleb," he corrected, "it's Garret, your cousin."
Alpha Caleb just looks at him. His eyes are flashing back from black and brown. He growled louder and everyone lowered their heads in submission.
"COME!" He said and dragged me with him.
Tear-eyed Heather tried to come for me but her mate held her tightly. "Icy" was the only thing she could say as she watched me being taken, dragged by my alpha to god knows where.
Everyone was shocked. Everyone was wondering what was happening.
