Chapter 1

Dom's POV

(Sunday)

"What do you think she'll be like?" I ask my soon-to-be beta and best friend max.

"I don't know, but whoever she is she'll be an amazing Luna and mate." He assures crumpling a piece of paper and shooting it across the room. It landed just to the right of the trash bin, among many other failed attempts.

"You're never gonna make that shot max, your too far away, plus you suck at basketball," I say crossing my arms expressionless.

"Oh really? You think you can do any better?" He says throwing his arms in the air.

"I don't think, I know. I bet I make it first shot."

"Fine but when you miss I get to drive the Mustang to school tomorrow." He says tossing me a piece of paper crumpled into ball form.

"Ok and when I do make it you have to take the bus tomorrow."

"Hey wait no...."

It was too late the shot was up and landed perfectly into the bin.

"Never make a bet with a Alpha max."

"Yeah, well we didn't even shake on it so it doesn't count." He tries to get out of the hole he dug himself.

"Have fun riding the bus tomorrow max." I laugh.

"Come on Dom I can't ride the bus...I'll do anything I'll...I'll clean your room for a week."

I look around at my room to see everything in tip-top shape, except for the scattered pile of crumpled paper next to my trash can.

"I think I've got that covered pretty well already but you can pick up all your failed attempts and actually put them in the trash."

"Yeah, yeah whatever." He mumbles and go's to retrieve his retired paper basketball career.

"So who do you think your mates gonna be?" He asks placing the paper in the can.

"Honestly in have no fucking clue," I say letting out a breath I didn't know I was holding.

Stef's POV

(Monday)

*Ding*

*Ding*

*Ding*

My alarm sounds.

I open my eyes only to be blinded by the sun pouring through the windows of my room.

Covering my eyes I reach over and grab the small black remote that is sitting on my nightstand and press the red button.

This remote was like a walkie talkie between myself and anyone downstairs. All I'd do is press the red button in the middle and it would make sounds downstairs, telling anyone and everyone that I was awake and ready to get out of bed.

Why do I have to do this You ask?

Oh because I'm hooked up to a million different wires, tubes, and the machine's due to my very serious lung condition called 'CRAP LUNGS'.

When I was born shit happened and almost caused my lungs to collapse. The doctors told my parents that I had a 40 percent chance of living but here I am now almost 17 years old, with crooked lungs.

The only way that my lungs could be fixed was to complete the wolf transformation and let my lungs heal like an injury.

Wolf transformation usually happens on every female wolfs 17th birthday, and my 17th birthday just happens to be tomorrow.

I was about to press the button again when my mom opens my door and walks in.

"Good morning cupcake." She says as she begins to unhook me from all the tubes and machines.

"Good morning."

"Are you excited about your birthday?" She asks smiling at me.

"Yeah, then we won't have to go through all of this anymore." I say motioning around to all of the equipment and medicine setup in my small room.

My mom looks at me with watery eyes and then smiles.

"Do you wanna eat breakfast?" She asks when she hooks me up to my waterproof oxygen tank.

"No I'm just gonna shower then get ready for school."

"Ok, but make sure you eat lunch today, and not a salad get a pizza or something." She says as she slowly heads towards the door.

Because of all this 'lung shit' I used to be the size of a stick, but my parents insisted on me eating full meals so I would thicken out. Which I did.

I have some pretty nice curves for a girl with a crooked lung structure.

"Ok mom." I smile before she turns on her heels and walks out.

I make my way to my bathroom, take off my clothes then step into a refreshing hot shower.

After my shower I put on some clothes which consisted of:

A pair of deniem shorts, a white tank top, and some white converse.

After I checked my outfit a couple of times I finally sat down at my mirror to do my hair and makeup.

For my makeup I didn't need much today so I just put on some eyeliner, a hint of blush, and some pink lipstick.

My hair had been tightly braided last night so I just released the braid and the result being curls/waves fell to the middle of my back.

I checked my appearance a few times in my mirror then made my way towards downstairs.

Our house had a built-in elevator due to my 'life's struggle' and the fact that the pack house didn't have one but I decided to take the steps today. Not a very smart move.

By the time I made it downstairs I was winded, but every time my mom and dad see come down these steps it's like a spark of happiness or something ignites inside of them, so I just put on my best smile and try not to die.

"You look beautiful sweetie." My dad says hugging me.

"Thanks dad."

"Well I Better get to school." I say standing there awkwardly.

"Your father will take you, I'll pick you up then we'll go to the mall." She says hugging me.

"Ok."

My mom hooks me up to my portable tank that's in a backpack then kisses us goodbye.

Dom's POV

(Monday)

"Dom you can't be serious about this bus thing."

Max has been whining about this bet all morning and it's starting to piss me off.

"God damn'it max you can fucking ride with me but if you fucking slip up even once today your ass is on the fucking bus for the rest of the fucking year." I say running my hand through my hair.

Max does a little happy dance then grabs some cereal and a bowl for breakfast. I take an apple.

"Dom, max I need to speak with you two." My fathers strong alpha voice booms through out the kitchen.

"Yessir." Max and I say in unison and follow him to his office on the other side of the pack house.

Max and I walk in and sit side by side with my father sitting behind his desk In front of us.

"As you both know you'll both be finding your mates very, very soon."

We look at one another then nod.

"Well it's very important that when you do find someone that you truly are mates. Not just a high school romance. Do you understand?" He looks at me then at max.

"Yessir."

"Now Dom, because you'll be alpha soon you'll be able to find your mate before she finds you but your wolf will do anything to get to hers but you can't just jump right in and mark her and complete the bond, it takes time, she will need time to fully change an cope. If your wolf takes over and goes after her I will step in, so it's best that you know now that you need to be in control." I lean forward and nod.

My father then goes on about how max will find his mate right after I find mine, and some other stuff dealing with the birds and the bee's in the werewolf world I kind of tuned out here since I had already had been given 'The Talk'.

Jay~ this is the day!

Me~ what?

Jay~ this is the day, the day we find 'her'!

When our little meeting was over it was time for me and max to leave for school, which we were already late for so my dad called the principle (he's beta) and excused us from the classes that we had already missed.

"So do you think you"ll find her today?" Max asks jumping into the passenger seat of my car.

"My wolf was going crazy in there, saying this is the day, the day we find 'her', so I guess so." I say getting into the car and putting on my shades.

~~~~

By the time we got to school we had already missed two classes, so max went to his biology class and I went to my locker to grab a few things before I go to my calculus class.

220,221...222 my locker.

I twist in my locker number and open it. Then it hit me like a ton of bricks. Her sent. It was the strongest thing I have ever smelt in my life. Maple syrup and vanilla.

I looked both ways in search of the source of the amazing sent, but there is no one in sight.

I quietly closed my locker and followed the sent all the way down the hallway towards the elevators.

Why would she be...

Jay~ there she is Dom, I can feel her wolf, ready to be awakened. Isn't she beautiful?

The source of the oh so sweet sent is standing in front of the elevator, taping her foot on the marble ground, a book and two notebooks hugged tight to her chest.

I want to get closer, I need to be closer but the little voice inside my head tells me to remember the talk with my father this morning so I kept my distance.

I take in her features:

About 5'5

Perfectly tanned skin

Long black hair

Curved to perfection

Plump pink lips

Gorgeous chocolate eyes

And is that...is that a nose ring?

I can't make it out because she steps into the elevator.

Me~ Damn jay, she is beautiful.

Jay~ follow her.

Me~jay we can't

Jay~ please just one last look.

Me~ god, fine one last look.

I run to the steps and take them by two going up to the next floor. Thank god there's only two floors here.

As soon as I open the door to the hallway I make sure the coast is clear then go and sit on a bench right in front of the elevators. I put my head in a book as if I'm reading instead of stalking.

There's a ding that comes form the elevator, then the doors open and she steps out.

Then I saw it.

'Its not a nose ring, it's an oxygen canal.' I thought to myself.

She turned left and walked down the hallway, hair bouncing up and down with each steps she takes.

Jay~ do you feel it Dom, the want you have for her?

I do, I do feel it. I place a hand on my chest feeling the fast pace of my heart, and I feel it in my...

"Shit!" I curse looking down at my pants, I could see my length taking its course of a boner.

I don't even know her name, I didn't even speak one word to her and I already have a fucking hard on for her. Fuck I need her.

Stef's POV

(Monday after school)

"So cupcake, how was school?" My mom asks as we near the mall.

"Same old, same old nothing new." I replied honestly.

Nothing did happen I went to my regular classes, ate lunch with my regular friends then some more classes then the day was over.

We talked about my birthday party she was throwing me tomorrow as we pulled into the mall parking lot.

"So where should we go first, platinum or the gallery?"

Both dress shops.

"Um platinum, I guess."

~~~

Dom's POV

(Tuesday, Stef's birthday)

"So you met her yesterday but you didn't tell me?!" Max shouts In my face.

"I didn't know what to do max, I had to leave."

"There's more to this, tell my the whole story now."

I told max the story of how I saw my mate and how incredibly beautiful she is, and how I kinda got a boner right after seeing her and how I just left school then.

"Well now we have to go to that party tonight." Max says more to himself then to me.

"What party?"

"What's her name um...oh Stefanie Moore, she turns 17 today. So if we go you'll probably run into your mate then I'll meet mine!"

'Hum...Stefanie Moore, doesn't ring a bell'

Jay~ come on Dom this could be the night.

I sigh.

"We'll go to the party."

"I think your dad is going too should we car..." I cut max off.

"Just go get ready, and wear something nice."

I get ready myself showering and putting on a white button down, black dress pants, and a tux and bow tie.

~~~

Stef's POV

(Tuesday Stef's birthday)

"Cupcake are you almost ready? Everyone is here." My mom calls for me.

I'm in my bathroom trying to shake these nerves.

I didn't know my mom would invite the whole damn moonlight pack.

"Yeah, I'm ready."

I open the bathroom door and my mom is in tears.

"Mom what's wrong?" I begin to panic.

"Oh nothing cupcake it's just...your so beautiful and your growing up so fast."

"Uww...mom, your gonna make me cry." I say patting my waterline.

"I'm sorry sweetie, come here let's look at you."

I walk over to my mom and stand I front of my full body mirror.

I have to admit the dress is perfect it has a white body with black floral studded beads that starts at my left shoulder and ends almost at the middle of the dress.

The dress stops just at mid-thigh and tightens like a corset in the back making my breast appear perkier.

"I love you mom." I say looking at her through the mirror.

"I love you too cupcake, now let's see how we're gonna get this tank together."Her smile beams.

"Actually mom I think I can go without the tank, at least until the transformation." Another tear rolls from her eye. She just nods ok.

"Your father is waiting outside the door to take you down the steps, unless you want to take the elevator?"

"No, no... The stairs are fine."

My mom grabs the door knob and twists it open, revealing my dad at the top of the steps with his hand outstretched ready to take mine. And literally hundreds of people at the bottom of the staircase looking directly at me.

I take a deep breath, well a deep enough breath I can manage and take to the stairs with my dad's hand in mine.

~~~

Dom's POV

(At the party)

"No I shouldn't have a..." I was cut off by max.

"Look here she comes." Max says pointing to the top of the staircase.

As soon as she took the first step it hit me again. Maple syrup and vanilla.

I can feel my breath hitch up in my throat. I try to clear my throat.

Jay~ there she is Dom.

"Mm...max that's...that's her, that's my mate."

"What? That's her?" He asks motioning to her.

I can feel my eyes changing color and my wolf growing inside me.

"Yes max that's fucking her, I...I can't do this I need her now, right now." I say trying to make my way towards her.

"No Dom, stop you know what the alpha said, you have to keep control. If you let your wolf take over you'll hurt her, let me take care of this." Max grabs me and drags me outside.

Just thinking about someone or something hurting her makes me angry. I don't think I could handle it if I hurt her.

"Stay here. Dom promise me you will stay here." This is probably the most serious I've seen max in a while.

"I promise max, but please hurry I don't know how long I'm gonna be able to hold him back." I promise honestly.

Max nods and runs back into the house.

Jay~ Did you see what she was wearing, that dress looks amazing on her. The way it pushes those perfectly tanned, flawless breasts up. And how it stops just above her mid-thigh. You want her Dom, you need her now!

'I need her'

'I need her'

I start to pace.

'I need her'

'I want her'

Jay~ Go get her Dom.

"Dom!" I hear my father's voice sound over my thoughts.

I look up at him.

"Stefanie Moore, bright young lady, beautiful too."

My wolf growls at him for calling my mate beautiful.

"Take it easy son I know there's a lot of emotion's and feeling going through your body right now but you just have to do one thing before you can settle this." He says walking towards me and putting a hand on my shoulder.

"And what's that?"

"Get the blessing." He smiles then looks back at the door.

Standing there is my mates father.

"I'll go and tell Mrs. Moore the news." My dad pats my back then disappears back into the house of people.

"Walk with me Dom." Mr.Moore says then starts walking towards what looks like a garden.

I follow him.

~~~

Stef's POV

"Mom I...I can smell his sent."

"And, what does it smell like?!?" She questions with excitement.

"Cologne and peppermint."

I take in air trying to find the sent.

Michelle~ smells amazing doesn't it?

"Wait, who said that?" I ask out loud.

Michelle~ It's me, your wolf, and jay's mate.

Me~ oh, do you have a name, and who is jay?

Michelle~ my name is Michelle and jay is my mate, your mates wolf.

Me~ oh, Michelle am I ever going to make the transformation?

Michelle~ anxious aren't we, and yes you will when the time comes you'll know.

Me~ ok, so who is Dom?

Michelle~ your mate is the soo-to-be alpha of the moonlight pack, and you will be the luna.

Me~ wow.

Michelle~ I know right, well go find our mates there somewhere around here.

Me~ ok

'That was amazing' I think to myself.

I shuffle my way around my house in search for me and Michelle's mates, stopping occasionally to catch my breath and to thank people for wishing me a happy birthday.

"Hey Stef, how are you liking the party?" My dad asks.

"Dad I have to tell you something."

My dad takes my wrist and pulls me into the kitchen.

"What is it sweetie?" He asks, concern full in his eyes.

"I found my mate, we'll not exactly found, because I haven't seen him yet but he's here and..." His laugh cuts me off.

"Oh sweetie, I already know. I've talked to him and his father, he's looking for you." He laughs as he pulls me into a warm hug.

"Um ok, well since you've seen him is he cute?" I jokingly ask looking up at him.

"That one you'll have to answer for yourself."

We laugh.

"Go get him." He says nodding towards the kitchen door.

"I love you dad." I say and squeeze him tight in a hug then leave the kitchen.

"Where are you?" I think out loud.

Michelle~ check outside by the garden.

Me~ ok

I head towards the back door leading to the garden.

The closer I get to the door the stronger his sent becomes.

I finally reach the door and open it to go outside. When I step outside a sharp cold wind blows against my exposed skin.

I shiver and wrap my arms around myself.

"Cold?" A deep sexy voice sounds from behind me.

I turn around to face the voice.

"If you don't already know I'm Dom wright, your mate." He says taking off his tux and placing it over my shoulders.

"Thank you, and I'm Stefanie Moore." I say holding me hand out for him to shake. Very mate like Stef.

"I know who you are." He says taking my hand and slowly turning it over to place a warm kiss on my cold skin.

I know I'm blushing like hell so I look down at my feet.

He placed his finger under my chin to lift my blush-filled face.

"Is there some place we can go and, talk?" He asks still holding my chin.

"Follow me." He takes my hand in his, and follows me into the house.

Honestly I don't want him to see my hospital if a room, I don't want him to think I'm some broken, ticking-time-bomb.

I take him up the back steps so no one knows we ditched the party.

"You don't wanna see my room, it's...its a hospital." I blurt as we pass my room.

"Your dad kind of told me everything, so you wouldn't have to. I hope that's ok with you?" He says stopping me In my tracks to turn around and face him.

"It's ok with me, it'll all be gone when I complete the transformation anyways."

I take him into one of the guest rooms and he closes the door behind him.

I sit down on the bed. He sits next to me.

"You look absolutely stunning tonight by the way."

"Thanks."

"So have you talked to your wolf yet?" He asks rolling up the cuffs of his button down.

"Yes I have, her name is Michelle."

"Michelle, I like that name. My wolf's name is jay."

"So Is jay talking to you now?" I ask out of curiosity.

"Yeah, he is."

"What is he saying?" I ask turning to face him.

I see a hit of red creep onto Dom's face along with the sexiest smirk I have ever seen in my life.

"He's telling me to kiss you." He bites his lip.

"And what are you saying to him?" I say playing with my fingers.

" I told him that I would only kiss you with you and Michelle's permission." He takes both of my hands and intertwined them with his.

"You have both of our permission." I smile.

He then places one of his hands on my cheek and the other on the small of my back then leans in brushing his lips against mine and then pressing them against me.

A moan slipped from my lips as I laid both of my hands on both of his shoulders.

(Pop)

What was...

(Crack)

(Pop pop)

Ouch!

"Dom...I think I'm...making the... transformation."

(Crack)

(Crack)

"Just focus on me it'll ease the pain." He says out of breath.

I nod ok and continue to kiss him. He flips me over on my back and kisses me quickly but passionately.

(Pop pop pop)

(Crack)

(Snap)

That one didn't hurt as much as the first one.

(Crack)

The pain of my bones rearranging themselves lessens as the kiss with Dom deepens.

The room is starting to spin, and Dom is becoming blurrier and blurrier. Eventually darkness takes over me and I'm out.
