-Jesse's POV-

'Hmm so how was the morning with the mate Ness?' I blurted out as soon as soon as she was in hearing length.

'None of your buisness, you would think I would at least get a hello?' She raised an eyebrow, waiting.

'Funny Ness, you should know me better than that by now' I smirked as she punched me in the left arm.

Goddammit why does she always sit on my left side?

I rubbed my arm in pain, frowning at her. She simply shrugged, along with an evil smirk.

Jason looked between the two of us before rolling his eyes, like he was used to it.

'So Vanessa Storm Drew, we have gathered here today to discuss a very important issue' Jason said in a announcers voice, a very good one might I add.

'There is a pack meeting tonight, which will be held at our new house, to welcome us into the pack' I said in the same tone as Jase, trying to keep the act without laughing my ass off.

It was kinda hard considering Jase was trying to hold his straight face as well, as my deep serious voice was that terrible.

'So we require your attendance. This is why we have brought you to the mall-'

'With full regret in our hearts' I interrupted.

There's the fact that I hate shopping, just cause its boring and there is usually no food involved.

Jase hates it cause he has to carry all the bags which leads me to my next point. Vanessa and shopping. You never want to be around when that takes place.

The three of us always used to always meet up in the mall, till we realised we ended up spending around $3000 every second day thanks to Vanessa. Starbucks was a good option to avoid that.

'OH MY GOD ARE WE GOING SHOPPING?!?!' She squealed, jumping up and down.

Its very rare when you find Vanessa squealing. But as I said, she's bloody crazy over shopping.

'Yes but-' I started, but she was already dragging me to the first shop.

Here we go..

I caught a quick glance at the sign before we entered. Forever 21. This is a good store, probably worth about an hour of Vanessa's time.

She ran through the store for about 15 minutes, permantly booking two of the changing rooms. One for her to change in, the other to store me and the clothes in.

'Chuck me the red Victorian dress will ya?' Ness shouted over the changing room.

I looked at the various flashes of colour infront of me, my mind racing and now confused.

'Does it have the name Victoria written on it cause I cant see-'

'You're hopeless! They're sorted out into piles by colour Jess! Get the one with the blood red bust and black lacey skirt, the red is showing through underneath'

'Uh.. can you repeat that?' I yelled back over. Its like she was speaking a different language honestly.

'The red one that costs 57.50' She said in a 'duh' tone. Oh!

'Right then' I mumbled to myself, flipping through all the red ones.

There were 10 or so, but I eventually found the one she wanted. I hope.

I threw it over the high walls built to form a cubicle.  Hopefully, this one is the one cause I'm too hungry to be in the mood to go through another 15 dresses.

There was a bit of shuffling in the room beside me, before I heard her door unlock.

'Okay how do I look?'

'Amazing' I said blankly, not bothering to turn around.

'You didn't even look' A frown was in her voice. I sighed and spun round.

Wow. She looked so pretty!

'You really look great Ness' I said truthfully, as she grinned widely.

'I think this is the one too' She smiled, twirling around cockily.

She bought the dress along with studded leather boots, some tights, new red hair dye cause according to her the colour was fading in hers, she got a bigger stretcher, and stuff I can't remember before moving on to me.

'I think I'm gonna go wait in the car' Jason groaned.

You couldn't even see his hands, they were covered with different colour plastic and paper bags.

Not to mention I was holding about 6 bags myself.

'Have fun Jase' I laughed, pressing my lips to his.

He didn't even seem to notice me dump the bags I had on him when I pulled away. Yeah I'm a conniving little girl.

'I uh.. will do' He stuttered as he walked off, making me snicker behind him.

'He's dumbstruck, that boy. Hey how come theres a pack meeting when the Alpha and Luna are out?' Vanessa brought up, while walking to the next store.

'Cause its been way too long, and since there are so many other wolves in this pack they might assume us three are rogues and attack us. Oh and there's also the fact that Theodore wants to leave Christan his first job; He's planning on stepping down as Alpha as soon as Christan finds his mate' I explained, as a smirk rose up on her face.

'You like this Christan guy don't you?' She said out of the blue, making my eyes widen in shock.

'No I don't! Besides Ness I have a BOYFRIEND. Plus there's also the fact that's he's my FREAKING STEPBROTHER' My tone was a bit over exaggerated, like I was lying.

I wasn't lying!

'I know you do, there was that spark of happiness when you talked about him' She smiled, disappearing behind a clothes rack.

I huffed, As if!

"But what if Christan is our mate?" Rae decided to enter my thoughts.

"Hey there stranger, haven't talked to you in a while" I frowned.

She pretty much abandoned me for a few days, no idea why.

"I was busy meeting up with Tyler - oops sorry nothing " She tried covering up.

She does that ALOT. Spills half of the story accidently before trying to stop it. She's alot like me really.

"Who's Tyler?" I asked innocently.

Maybe I could slowly get it out of her rather than getting mad and demanding answers.

"Just this wolf I met, you know I get this strange feeling around him like- ARGH STOP THAT JESSE!" She huffed as she realised what I was doing. I burst out laughing internally, a smile appearing on my face.

I've missed her alot to be honest, she is always the one making side comments in my head to everything.

She was a part of me, and without her.. I guess I felt lost?

Even if it was only for like, 2 or 3 days.

"Awh Rae ya know you love me! Hey I didn't know wolves could like, talk to other wolves I guess. I just thought.. well.. I don't know explain?" I stumbled across my words.

I mean I knew wolves could communicate with others but I never really questioned how.

"Oh well sometimes, we can leave our human bodies and go into this kind of place where we can meet with other wolves and stuff, if they leave their human as well.

The Council of Elders created it, so that us as wolves actually get a chance to meet others without having to drag our human with us. Most of us only go sometimes though, cause well.. we like our humans. Without you, I kinda felt a part of me missing" Rae explained.

"Well. I did not know that. Just don't leave me too much okay? I feel like a part of me is just gone when you left as well"

"Its a deal" Her voice grinned, making me smile.

'Jess? Jesse Mary-Anne are you even listening to me!?'

Vanessa waved her hand in front of my face, a frown evident on her face. I quickly looked the way she was facing, seeing a pair of girls.

Their noses stuck up, tiniest shorts and crop tops that were smaller than a bra, strutting around like they owned the place. So I made a valid guess.

'Yup, something about how there are way too many skanks walking around these days?'

'Yeah..' She trailed off, surprised.

That's right girl, I know you that well.

'ANYWAY. I saw this dress that I think would be perfect for you!' Vanessa squealed.

My smile immediately turned into a frown, a groan leaving my body.

'I promise, no more than 3 dresses to try on this time' She swore, her hand to her heart.

'Ill believe it when I see it, come on' I rolled my eyes, walking straight into a changing room.

See this is my life.

The first two dresses were basically the maternity ward at a hospital.

The first one was a red one, the shades of red mixed together horribley, like an aumbulical cord attaching a child to its mother. It was weaved together in such a way that it looked like a messy tangle, like a mother after giving birth.

I think the designer of this dress was drawing up the design while watching her sister give birth or something.

Then there was another dress, that looked like the nurses burped the baby too hard and it vomited, making the horrid greeney yellow colour on this dress.

I was tired of maternity wards, when a dress was thrown over the dressing room walls.

This dress was "Strapless, a black pulled together bust with a dark red flow of material at the bottom"

That's how Ness deceived it anyway.

About a minute later, Ness had chucked in a pair of black ballet flats, along with a belt that fastened on the dress, on the line that seperated the two materials.

I got the ballet flats after bribing Ness with some of my sacred chocolate, or it would've been wedges for me.

I took a once over in the mirror.

It came just above my knees, and I felt a bit uncomfortable with the amount of skin I was showing. My arms and half my legs were exposed and I didn't like it. I wasn't used to it, considering my fashion sense is baggy hoodies and/or shirts and a pair of jeans.

'Come on out Jess! You've been in for ages!' Vanessa yelled, banging on the changing room door.

'I don't like it! I feel so exposed!' I yelled back over.

'Oh just come out and show me what you look like' She almost snapped.

I sighed, opening the door with a sour face. Her eyes widened, and I immediately felt self conscious. I knew it was too much.

'I know! I look awful!' I almost whined.

I tucked my hands across my chest, pulling my knees together. I have never felt so self conscious in my life.

'No! You look fricking amazing! I'm just in awe Jess!' She exclaimed, picking up my arms and throwing them away from my chest.

When she signaled a twirl, I narrowed my eyes in a glare.

No way Storm.

'Back straight!' She laughed as I slumped towards the changing room.

I gave her the special finger, not giving her a second glance before getting the "thing" off me.

I put it back neatly on the hanger, knowing I was not going to buy it. My eyes caught sight of the price tag, double taking at the figure.

200 pounds! Should clothing even be that expensive??

Thank God I'm not buying that.

I snuck out of the changing room, but I was stopped halfway to the dress rack. The dress and its belt was snatched out of my hands, with a flash of red and purple.

Vanessa was sprinting to the counter like a mad woman,faster than me by miles. By the time I reached the counter, Ness was smiling and holding out a bag.

'Vanessa Storm Drew that dress costs 200 pounds are you mad!?!?' I almost screamed.

I know she likes waste her money but I dont.

'Hey, I earn 200 a day at my job so shut it Jess, its on me' She said cockily.

The smell of meat and sausages sizzling captured my smelling senses, my mouth reacting with an almost druel. Person after person kept piling into the backyard, meeting up with another person to make light conversation.

I was wearing the dress Ness had bought me earlier. And after a whole lot of trouble, I finally locked myself in my room so I could change my ballet flats to my usual pair of shoes.

They were the ones I wore almost everywhere, a combat boot type of style with dark ripped jean material making up the covering.

They were so darn comfortable! At least I have one comfy piece of clothing on me.

To say I was nervous was a huge understatement.

There were more pack members here than at the wedding.

Uncertainty rushed through my head, making me think of the impossible coming true.

What if they didn't like me and disowned me?

What if they make me leave the pack and be a rogue on my own!

I did watch this movie once about a wolf whose pack didn't like him so he started this journey across the world trying to find love somewhere. But everyone rejected him, turned him down.

Then he did find his true love, but not noticing the train coming closer on the tracks he ran across them, trying to meet the girl wolf but the train hit him.

I really, really don't want to be hit by a train anytime soon.

'Jesse?' A foreign voice spoke from the door, interrupting my thoughts.

I spun my head round from the window, to face the figure.

It was a girl, long blonde hair that was somehow brown as well, dip dyed electric blue ends. Her eyes were a mixture of blue and sea green, small petite frame and was stunningly pretty.

'Uh.. yeah?' The socially awkward part of me showed up, not knowing how to reply to this girl.

'Hey don't you go all awkward on me! I'm Kaitlyn, Christan told me to come get you' She smiled.

Her introduction made me loosen up a little, knowing she was a genuinely nice person.

We immediately became friends, as she led me down to the rest of the pack. I learnt a bit about her on the way due to the house being so massive.

Her full name was Kaitlyn Marceline Barnes, 17 years old. Has a mate called Luke, part of the Silver Moon pack which I'm about to join, and has a YouTube Channel where she does stupid things, yet they're funny like the cinnamon challenge and stuff.

As soon as I mentioned I hate scary movies she started planning a reaction video that I would be in, but overall she really was a great person.

'You nervous?' She asked, just before we walked through the backyard door.

'I'm pretty close to wetting my pants if that's what you're asking' I said with a faint smile.

I'm pretty sure my face turned pale at that moment.

'Come on Jess, they'll love you I promise' She smiled, wrapping her arms around me tightly.

I stood there in shock of this current affection, but kind of went along with it.

Kaitlyn pulled back with a smile, opening the door.

Gulp.

Immediately I got lifted in the air and twirled around in someone's arms. I almost let out a small squeal, but laughter escaped my lips instead. I knew this had to be someone I know.

He set me down, holding me close to him, grinning.

'There you are! You look-' Christan paused as he pulled away slightly, looking at me properly.

His jaw fell to the floor and his eyes widened a bit. A blush set themselves on my cheeks, dropping my head down till my hair covered all I could see.

Crap. I really did look horrid.

'Amazing' A voice said behind me.

I pulled myself out of Christan's arms, making the mistake of looking at him before turning around.

He looked like he was having a mental battle with his wolf, his eyes flickering from dark to his usual chocolate brown.

I looked in his eyes, confused for a second. I snapped myself out of it, telling myself it didn't matter before turning to face Jason.

He looked well dressed, straying away from his usual ripped up tank and jeans. He actually had a shirt on without holes in it, dark jeans, his hair styled up compared to his usual rugged style.

'You dressed up a bit didn't you?' I smirked, as he shrugged.

'Its a special day, its not everyday you join a new pack ya know. Good impression and stuff' He shrugged, smiling.

'So I see. Well done I must day' I said matter-of-factly.

'Well done to you too. You look absolutely amazing' He smoothly, his hands on my back.

He leaned forward, pressing his lips against mine. He moved his lips with mine slowly and softly, so it was a sweet and simple kiss. I moved my hands up to place them around his neck, when I felt something hard against his side hip.

I immediately pulled back, gasping.

'Youre wearing a belt!' I stared at him wide eyed.

This was insane.

Jason hated belts. Alot.

'Yeah, Ness made me wear it' He frowned, looking down at it with disgust.

I laughed, no longer in his arms.

My eyes spun round to see where Christan was, just cause uh... I wanted to see if he was okay and not choking on some air particles or anything.

But I didnt see him. My eyes immediately started scanning the area, catching his faint frame walking round to the other side of the house.

'Ill be back okay?' I directed quickly at Jason, dogdging through the crowd to find him. I dont know why but I felt like I should.

I finally found him, standing near the outside pool. His fists were clenched by his sides, muscles tense as he looked at the water.

I wasn't quite sure what to say, but I ignored my social awkwardness and went towards him.

'Chris, are you okay?' I said softly, placing my hand on his shoulder.

I half expected him to throw my hand off, considering how angry he looked, but he didn't. His muscles relaxed, fists unclenching as he turned to look at me.

His eyes shone with a glint of moonlight, his emotions wiped clean.

'I'm better now' He said, his eyes still locked on mine.

I bowed my head a little with a blush, my hair falling on my face. Christan's hand ran itself through the large locks of hair that had fallen on my face, brushing them backwards till I had to look back up at him.

'Beautiful is an understatement for how you look tonight' He whispered softly.

He looked gorgeous, his brown locks carefully floating in the soft breeze, the moonlight reflecting into his chocolate brown eyes, the tux he was wearing fitting extremely well, his lips.. oh God his lips..

Was it just me who was feeling his lips closer to mine? Surely I couldn't feel his warm breath teasing my lips before.

If it wasn't for Nicholas announcing it was time to gather for the ceremony, one can only assume what might've occured there.

*

*

The ceremony wasnt as long as I thought it would be, and certainly wasn't what I expected.

The moment I stepped on that stage to say my pledge my loyalty to the pack, noone booed me off stage. They accepted me.

And good lord was I happy about that.

'So with that, I, Christan Issac Drake accept you Jesse Mary-Anne Drake to the Silver Moon Pack' Christan announced with authority.

Immediately something changed inside me. A bond broke, and was made all at the same time.

A wave rushed over me, dozens of voices speaking in my head, thoughts not directed at me as they weren't loud and clear messages.

"Guess who's gonna be stuck in your head all day babe?" Christan's playful voice appeared loud and clear in my head.

It was quite weird hearing him actually, but it felt good.

"Not you, that's for sure" I sassed him, putting up my block and walking off the stage.
