Chapter 1

-Jesse's POV-

'Oh God, I look so fat!'

'No, you don't' I rolled my eyes at my mother, who was holding her breath as she watched the mirror with a frown.

'What will Theo think? What if he doesnt want to marry me Jess!?!' She exclaimed frantically, making me laugh.

'Of course he'll marry you, he loves you. Besides, look at you-' I said, putting my hands on her shoulders.

I made her face the mirror. She looked straight into her dark blue eyes, her flowing white wedding dress showing off her amazing figure.

'Your beautiful Mum' I smiled, tucking a strand of her dark brown hair behind her ear. She smiled, kissing me on the cheek.

Her cherry red lipstick left a visible mark on my cheek, making me glad to know I wasn't wearing makeup.

'If I'm supposed to be stunning, then I'm not sure what you are' My mum, Bethany Hadley laughed.

She swapped our places, so her hands were on my shoulders as I looked in the mirror. I hardly looked like my mum, with my features like my deceased father. I had golden brown eyes, far away from my mothers sharp blue ones.

The flair pale blue dress I was wearing was pretty, I admit. My brown hair was tied up in a low ponytail with a pale blue ribbon, blue flats on my feet. It was awfully simple, yet pretty. Overall, I'd say I looked like a cross between Cinderella before and during the ball.

'Thanks Mum' I smiled, someone knocking at the door.

'Girls! Its time to go!' My best friend, Vanessa poked her head through the door.

She was acting as a bridesmaid as well, although the angel look didn't work too well on her. Imagine an angel with electric red and purple hair, cut into a punk sort of style. Add some dark piercing black eyes, with an everpresent smirk on her face too.

Yeah I wouldn't imagine her as an angel either.

'Thanks Nessy' I smirked. She frowned at me, while giving me a death glare.

She hates that name and we both know it.

Ness and I have been best friends since kindergarten, and honestly I dont know how we've stuck together this long. We are completely different.  And by completely different, I mean exact OPPOSITES.

We argue over almost every topic because we both always have different opinions, different styles, a difference on everything.

But the fact is, there's no one I'd rather be my best friend than her.

I led my nervous mother downstairs, holding her train of white cloth so it wouldn't drag on the floor. I couldn't help but feel a wave of sadness wash over me as I stepped outside of the house.

This was our pack house, but since there's only four of us, we're all migrating to the "Silver Moon" pack. I've never met Theodore, my to-be-stepfather, but what better day to meet a man than on his wedding day?

The car ride was eerily silently, the only sound being mum tapping her knee nervously. Vanessa and I didn't want to talk out loud, so we decided to be quiet about it.

"What do you think he'll be like?" I asked her through mindlink.

"Hopefully not an alpha, for your sake" She replied, letting me agree silently.

In case you haven't figured it out by now, we're werewolves.

Most humans dont know about us, as we live in harmony with them. Some humans though, dont like the thought of supernatural beings and try to wipe us out. There's also the occasional pack wars and fights, meaning there always has to be warrior wolves ready and onguard around the borders of our territoried land.

The joys of being a were.

'Just dont kill me when you see him ok?' My mum pleaded as she stepped out of the car.

I almost tripped out of the car, trying to hold the train of her gown. There's also the fact that I probably have 2 left feet.

'Why would I-' I stopped my own sentence, as I poked my head inside the church.

The man standing at the altar looked nervous, yes. But even with the nervous look on his face, he reeked of authority.

'Mum how could you not tell me he's an alpha!' I exclaimed, angered with the whole situation.

She knows I loathe alpha's. Grudges are held between me and all of their kind, for reasons that do not need to be mentioned currently.

'Because you would react like this!' She screamed back in a hushed tone.

'He's not even your mate! Couldn't you have picked someone else!? Someone not an Alpha?!' I screamed,  Vanessa trying to calm me down.

I know Mum's trying to move on but... since she had a choice couldn't she have picked someone else?

'I love him okay? I know you miss your father and trust me, I do too, everyday since- Since-' She paused, taking a breath in.

'Since he passed away. I know you'll always hate Alpha's Jess but he brings back joy into my life other than you. I only want the best for you, you know that I wouldn't be alive if it weren't for you and I dont want to go back there Jess. I want to be there for you, not like I was the past 7 years' She explained, a single tear streaming down her cheek.

That broke me. It made me realise how selfish I was behaving. This was my mothers happiness.

'Im sorry Mum, Ill give him a chance I promise' I said, wrapping my arms around her.

'Enough with the sappy talk lets get onto it people!' Ness clapped. Mum and I laughed, forming the procession line that Ness put us in.

'Why didn't we just get her to be the wedding planner?' Mum snickered, watching Ness order us all around.

'Honestly, I think she'll do more than the actual wedding planner' I smirked.

The "actual" wedding planner was sitting in the front row on their mobile phone, playing Angry Birds.

The wedding music started to play, the flower girl and page boy starting the procession.

The first thing I saw as I walked behind the little girl and boy was the altar. The man I had seen earlier was staring behind me towards my mother, his nervousness seemingly disappeared as he grinned widely.

I didn't even notice the man who must be Theodore's hair colour, as my eyes roamed to the person next to him.

His dark brown hair swept across his forehead messily, pulling off a sexy look. His gorgeous dark brown eyes bore into mine, his tuxedo fine fitting on that amazing body. My wolf purred at the sight of him, and I couldn't move all of a sudden. I was in such a daze, melting by just looking at him.

He wasn't just hot, he was sexy as hell.

A small shove from behind me snapped my eyes away from his. I blinked twice before continuing on, getting my mind in the right head space.

I felt the boy- boy? Man? Shall we just call him boy? Yeah lets do that.

I felt the "boy's" gaze on me as I walked slowly up the altar. My gaze was held strongly on my shoes, resisting the urge to see his handsome face again. Something was happening to me, and I didn't like it. I was feeling something I didn't like.

What if he's my-

Nah. He wouldn't be my mate. He's too good looking for that.

Besides, I wouldn't find out till I turned 16 anyway. So.... four days. When we turn 16, we're able to feel the sparks when we touch our mate.

I stood up at the altar, spotting Jason in the front row.

He's one of the people I actually know here, the rest of the chruch pews filled with the Silver Moon pack most likely. Ness and I met Jason a year after the two of us met. Since then, we've been an inseparable trio.

"What's wrong with you today Missy?" Jason's teasing voice spoke in my thoughts. I internally cussed. I forgot to close my link!

"Nothing Jasey, focus on the wedding" I tried covering up, but he just kept smirking.

"You do realize I could hear you the entire time when you fantasized about the best man right?" My cheeks turned pink.

"I did not fantasize! Besides, you know I'll always love you more" I smirked, blowing him a kiss. He fake caught it as we both mentally laughed.

Suddenly a growl was heard from the other side of the altar.

Everyone in the building snapped their head up to look at the "boy", thanks to werewolf hearing. The priest even stopped talking about God being with us, and trained his eyes on the best man.

He just cleared his throat and blushed softly, looking away from me. I did as well, realizing I was pretty much eye raping him. Its not my fault he has locks of hair I just want to run my fingers through, beautiful pink lips I want to kiss..

I avoided him the rest of the mass, trying to take notice of my mother getting married. I tried so bloody hard, but I couldn't.

Its like my mind did everything in its power to use my eyes to catch glances of the best man, looking right through my mother like she was glass.

'And with saying that, I now pronounce you Mr And Mrs Drake' The priest smiled.

Theodore swept my mother off her feet like she weighed nothing, kissing her slowly. She giggled into him, making me sheild my eyes.

No matter how cute this is, its still my mother.

Everyone clapped, some wolf whistled, some even cried.

Theodore ran down the aisle with her, everyone laughing and cooing at how cute they both were.

*

'Come on, we're here' Theodore said, hopping out of the car.

He ran round to Mum's door and opened it, helping her out.

We had arrived at this lake, twilight trees surrounding the patch of grass. We were onto wedding pictures now, with the "happy" couple, the best man and I.

Before I could even unbuckle my seatbelt, someone had opened the door beside me. A hand was brought infront of me which I gladly took, softly helping me out of the car. Oh those hands..

Dont ask me how hands are gorgeous.

I looked up to say Thankyou, but were met with those enchanting brown eyes again; making me question whether I was living in reality or not.

'Thankyou' I said nervously. He smiled genuinely, melting me inside.

'What man would I be if I didn't?' He said, as I laughed softly.

His voice was amazing, not high and not too deep, the perfect balance. I seriously need to stop.

'Ok, I want you all standing infront of the lake. Yes! No!! A little to the right!' The camera guy pointed at us to different places.

If you dont angle yourself on the exact degree he wants, he makes you take the picture again. This was the first one I was in, but I was getting frustrated just watching Mum and Theodore taking pictures. I swear that man was bipolar with the amount of tones he changed in one sentence.

I pulled my mother to the side after the picture, away from the bipolar camera man.

'Could I go for a run mum? I swear that bipolar arse is going to make Rae jump out any second and rip his throat out! Plus she just wants to be let out on this happy day and not trapped, please mother?' I pleaded polietly.

'Youre ALWAYS letting Rae out' She rolled her eyes, referring to my wolf.

I pouted my lip and pulled off the saddest face I could.

'Ugh fine! But be back in 2 hours, understand?' She said sternly, as a smile grew on my face.

'Yes! Thankyou Mum! Love you!' I squealed happily, giving her a quick hug before running towards the clump of trees.

When I made sure I was in the woods deep enough, I stood behind a tree and stripped off my clothing, leaving them in a neat pile.

I let my wolf take over, jumping up and landing down on all fours. She was happy to be free, as we immediately took off dodging through trees and bushes. The feeling of the soft breeze against my chestnut brown fur, my white furred paws loving the feeling of the soft yet slightly damp grass tickling them.

I saw a small lake, smiling at the sight of it. I halted, stepping back carefully. Before I could take off and jump over, I heard a growl behind me. My ears perked up, turning my head swiftly to face a large grey wolf. He had a stern look in his brown eyes, like he was of alpha blood. Yeah, that would explain his size as well.... But he just looked so familiar...

He showed his authority, growling.

Ha. No.

I growled right back, taking a step forward. It came out with more authority that I expected it too, making me thank my father for being an alpha. I sassed him in my head, pleased with the control I had.

Then, he did something totally unexpected.

He smirked, then launched forward, howling with a teasing tone. I didn't know what I was doing, but I chased after the grey wolf, catching up to him. I looked at him, a playful glint in his eyes as he ran ahead of me.

Suddenly he leaped into the trees, disappearing from my sight. I halted to a stop, looking around. Rae, my wolf whimpering softly, missing the grey wolf's presence. I was suddenly pushed to the ground, being pinned down and unable to move. I gasped in shock, a wolfy chuckle leaving his lips.

"Jess its been two hours get your ass back here!" Mum's voice yelled in my head. That's my mum for you.

"I would if there wasn't a grey wolf pinning me down"

"Where are you!?! Are you okay!? Is he a rogue!?" She panicked, as I laughed.

"Mum I'm almost 16, I can handle myself" And with that, I closed the link watching the grey wolf infront of me. I knew exactly how to handle this.

I hid my smirk, before licking his snout and nuzzling into his neck. He purred loudly, releasing his grip on me slightly.

That purr gave me chills.

I took that advantage, although after kissing this particular wolf I didn't want to leave him at all, but still pushed him off me and took off. Works everytime.

I arrived back where my clothes were, shifting back into my human body and slipping on my dress again, making sure to fix up my messy hair. For some reason I was more happier, like nothing could ruin my mood,not even that bipolar photographer.
