Selene sat down in front of her vanity applying the finishing touches to her make up, she's honestly excited for tonight's gala because she had hopes of meeting her mate today.

She recently turned 18 meaning she's fully ready for the mating bond, something that she has been fantasizing over almost all her life. She stared at her reflection in the mirror and muttered to herself "I hope I meet him today" a shy smile lighting up her face.

"Selene are you ready?* Her mother; Elise asks, barging into her room.

"Yes mother" she looked at herself once again in the mirror and then stood up, the yellow ball gown she's wearing hugged her like a second skin, it glowed alongside with her beautiful dark skin, showing off her curves in the right places,

"You look stunning my princess" Elise said and placed a quick kiss on her forehead "let's go" a bright smile graced her face as she watched her daughter strut out of her room, she has grown into such a beautiful young woman and she prays to the moon goddess that she is blessed with a loving mate.

"Is that my princess?" Alpha Reid said astonished as he watched his daughter walk down the stairs in her beautiful dress, he quickly walked up to her and offered his arm

"Thanks Dad" Selene said with a beautiful smile on her face.

"You look stunning princess" He complimented her and a shy smile crept on her face " I can't believe there's a chance you will meet the one for you today, it saddens me but makes me happy at the same time" he said and pulled his daughter in for a hug.

Selene gently patted her Dad's back; he has always had a soft spot for her, perks of being the only child "Don't ruin the night now Reid" Elise teased her husband as she stood in front of him.

"I didn't do anything" he immediately freed Selene from the hug, defending himself.

"Whatever you say big man, let's go darling" The three of them walked out to the white limousine packed outside for them.

Soon enough they arrived at the venue, plenty of pictures were taken before they walked into the hall. Selene went around with her parents to greet lots of people and honestly speaking she isn't fazed one bit, it is something she learnt how to deal with as an Alpha in training.

"Selene honey, you can go enjoy the party but don't wander off much okay?" Elise said walking off with her husband.

Selene sighed in relief and walked to the drinks section picking up a glass of champagne, she was used to the long introduction but that doesn't mean she doesn't get tired of it at some point. She took a sip of the drink and started looking round the hall, taking note of the happenings when a sharp pain tugged on her chest.

"Ow" she whined and dropped the glass on the table, rubbing the spot she felt the pain when she felt it again this time more painful. She felt a presence behind her as she rubbed the spot, the presence gave her an aura of peace so much so that she just wanted to fall asleep right there in the arms of the unknown person.

She turned around to meet the person, a little gasp left her lips as she stared at the person before her; Beta Drystan of Mooncrest pack.

His appearance didn't fit his reputation. He looked so soft with his silver hair packed in a pony tail and a few strands covering his brown eyes, he stood about 6'3ft tall looking down at her,his jawline was sharp enough to cut her skin and Selene could swear it's the reason for the scar that ran from underneath his eyes to the side of his straight nose.

"Mate?" Drystan muttered as he stared at the beautiful woman in front of him with disgust, she is the reason he has been feeling some type of way; a certain type of way he didn't like.

"Mate" Selene repeated after him quietly in a happier and lighter voice, staring at her fingers shyly

"How?" She quickly whipped up her face to look at him

"What do you mean how?" She asked tenderly, confusion all over her face

He stared at her for a while, he smirked evily and spoke up in a loud voice "what I mean is that I don't want or need any mate. So, I Beta Drystan of Mooncrest pack, Herby rej.." 

She quickly placed her hands on his lips and looked straight in his eye "don't finish that sentence" she said quietly but firmly
