Chapter 33
Luara's POV (Years Later)
Having to walk through the corridors of Oakville high school on my first day of senior year was the last thing I wanted to do on a Monday morning. In fact, I would prefer to never have to grace my presence in this school again. But apparently according to my mom, that is not an option.
So after scrapping that idea this morning, I forced myself out of bed not bothering to add any makeup. It's not like it would improve my appearance, after all a 5-inch scar is a permanent reminder of what happened 14 years ago between my parents and a crazed rogue.
I don't fully remember what happened and I've never asked, my mother constantly wants to talk about it to see if it can help me but I personally think it's unnecessary. Why talk about something I don't want to remember?
It still hurts my mom to think about and having it as a constant reminder on my face doesn't help. She even tries to reassure me that I'm still beautiful but that doesn't stop people from staring.
As the Alpha's daughter, I liked to keep myself to myself and I only liked to socialize with a small group of friends.
I placed all my school books that weren't needed until later into my locker when my best friend Tiannah and Elijah's daughter appeared next to me. We've been friends since we were four and have been inseparable since.
After shutting our lockers we greeted each other quickly and talked about all the crazy drama my twin brothers Kenneth and Maxwell caused over the weekend.
But just as we were about to walk to class Melinda, the most popular girl at school along with her group of followers came over to us.
Melinda stood there, her eyes glaring at mine as she scrunched her face up into disgust.
I simply rolled my eyes at her waiting for her unoriginal insult to follow, except it didn't. She instead pushed past me, her shoulder purposely bashing into mine as she shoved her way through.
We've never gotten along ever since we were children, she was obsessed with wanting an Alpha title something I had and she didn't.
"Watch it." I growled threateningly, my eyes glowing black as she turned round to give me a smug smile knowing I couldn't do anything as humans surrounded us.
I just looked at her appearance; she had gorgeous long red curly hair with light blue eyes and of course a skinny waist. She was wearing the most revealing clothing which left absolutely nothing for the imagination, not that it was a shock.
"What?" She replied sweetly, her tone innocent as she gave me a fake smile. My chest began to rumble as my wolf begged to be released only for me to push her down, we were exposed and we couldn't shift in the middle of the school corridor.
I was about to step forward, my wolf commanding control when Tiannah pulled me the other way by my arm trying to get us away from this situation.
"She's not worth it and you can't shift in the middle of school, all the humans are staring." Tiannah said through our mind link.
I knew she was right but my wolf didn't want to back down, she was an Alpha but she knew we had a responsibility to keep our kind a secret. I stared at Melinda a moment longer, a promise in my eyes to find her later to show her who was her superior.
I took in a deep breath, turning round to grab Tiannah, dragging her through the large group of people who began crowding the corridor wanting to see what was going on between Melinda and me.
I didn't stop pulling Tiannah until we were well out of range of the lockers.
"She really needs to be put in her place." Tiannah commented.
I nodded in agreement, I needed to cool off but I couldn't skip class again. My father had already reprimanded me about skipping school yesterday.
"Let's just get to class, yeah?"
"Come on then." She says shaking her head with a slight smile, she knew me and had no doubt that it would happen again.
I smiled at her before we both walked into our English class and began our assignments.
Luckily the whole day I managed to avoid Melinda and thankfully I made it through the school day with no more problems.
I made my way home quickly as the weather was scorching hot today and the heat was irritating my skin, what made it worse was how werewolves naturally radiate a lot of heat. I was even wearing a sweater; I just couldn't be bothered to take it off.
Our house is gorgeous and of course the largest in our territory, well that's if you disregard the pack house which is a large building that holds small families and teenagers including their mates. Mates - something I was hoping not to find all too soon especially if he's an Alpha.
They're over-possessive and dominant wolves and I couldn't stand it and I knew exactly what it would be like due to being an Alpha's daughter.
I wanted to be able to experience college life, travel the world, and then start my career before settling down with my mate and having kids.
Mates are also known as 'soul mates' everyone has one, even humans. It's where our souls split into two, one half belonging to you and the other for your mate. You're made for them like they're made for you. And due to being a werewolf, we have a better chance of finding our soul mate. We know who they are just by touch, smell, and the awaking of our wolf who automatically is able to identify our mate just by staring into their eyes.
I turned eighteen a month ago and got my wolf at sixteen, I'm surprised that I haven't found my mate yet since sixteen is the usual age.
My wolf is dark brown but looks slightly black and just like my dad my eyes are emerald green. My wolf is amazingly beautiful but unfortunately, you're still able to see my scar running down the side of my cheek.
When I finally made it home after a long day at school, I opened the door to the house and all I could hear was shouting and screaming coming from the kitchen. I sighed immediately knowing my brothers were probably doing something that will most likely find them in trouble.
Kenneth was always finding himself in trouble and somehow manages to bring other people into it. Unfortunately for Maxwell being his twin made him the usual victim. But I also didn't doubt that Kendrick - the future Alpha of the Black Moon Pack was also going to get an earful from our mother.
Once in the kitchen I almost wished that I never entered as before I was even able to take one step into the room, I was forced to duck from the flying food that flew my way which luckily missed me but unfortunately not for my mom's new and expensive painting.
I growled at my brothers who were laughing in hysterics.
"Your face!" Kenneth said gasping as he tries to get his breath back from laughing so hard. At the age of thirteen, he was the devil including Kendrick who just turned fourteen.
Looking around the room I mentally laughed at how my mother would react the moment she walked into the kitchen. There was food all up the walls and what looked like cake mix was dripping down from the ceiling. All the boys were covered from head to toe in food making it pretty obvious that they were having a food fight.
"Oh you're in so much trouble." I smirked at all three of them as I heard my mother's voice echo through the house. There was no way I was missing this.
But out of nowhere I felt a splash of food smack me straight on my sweater. I narrowed my eyes at Kenneth who was smirking at me.
"Oh you little shi-"
Before I could finish my sentence my mom's screeching rang through my ears. "What on earth has been going on in here? What have you done to my kitchen? Look at all this mess!" She was extremely mad and was making frantic movements with her hands.
"I didn't do it." I said immediately putting my hands up in surrender. There was no way I was getting into trouble for this. They're always getting me into trouble and I most certainly wasn't having it today.
I was in no mood to get in trouble for something I had no part in.
"Sure you weren't Luara, you're covered in cake mix and you're trying to tell me that you weren't involved? You're old enough to know that this kind of behavior is unacceptable yet you think it's okay to teach your siblings this behavior!" My mom Eva shouts as she began quickly wiping the sides down trying to clean the counter.
