Alpha Aiden And His Human Mate

Chapter 1

Melanie POV

"So your birthday is on Saturday?" I happily ask my two best friends Liam and Lily. They are identical twins and we've been friends for 3 years now.

"Yeah," Lily hesitantly responds. I don't know why but since we became friends, I have never been to their home, most of the time we hang out at mine. They never invite me to their birthdays either. If the gods favor me, this would be the first.

Sometimes it gets lonely at home since mum is always traveling and working, so needing company from my two best friends isn't much to ask right?

"Am I invited to this one?" I ask, making my most vulnerable pouting face because I know they can't resist it.

"Of course" Liam agrees and it causes me to squeal in happiness.

Finally.

"Yes" I beam hugging him tight and he chuckles causing his dimple to appear. He has one on his left cheek and I always find it cute.

My two friends are gorgeous and sometimes I find it surreal that such beauty exists. They are completely different from anyone I have seen. From their physical structure to how they behave, it differs from anyone at school.

Their beauty is remarkable.

They are so lucky to have each other, I wonder how it would feel like if I had a sibling.No doubt amazing.

"Can jake come too?" I hopefully stare at them. Jake is my 6-month-old boyfriend.

We knew each other since childhood. We were great friends till late last year when he confessed he had feelings for me.

Being the soft-hearted person I am, I couldn't turn him down for fear of losing him and our long-term friendship. Also, the loneliness at home pushed me to say yes to his proposal.

Sometimes I feel guilty because he's a good person, and he deserves to be loved back. Hopefully, maybe in the future, I will learn to.

"I don't know Mel, my brother said strictly family, sorry," Liam apologetically mumbles and I nod in understanding.

I hope I won't be intruding though.

"Your brother, is he hot?" I playfully wiggle my eyebrows and they groan in unison. They are probably bored with my question because I ask them that all the time.

"Easy there Melanie you have a boyfriend, remember?" Lily lightly hits my shoulder and Liam shakes his head in amusement.

I chuckle  "What? am just asking, you know I hate surprises" I say scooping the salad into my mouth.

It's lunch break and we are in the school cafeteria. School food is generally disgusting that's why one of my guards brings me lunch every day.

Don't even ask me why I have guards because honestly, I don't know. Each time I ask my mum she brushes it off and the conversation is to never repeat itself.

My mum and I don't have a relationship at all, she's even barely at home. Being a fashion designer makes her travel a lot and each time she's around, she controls my life beyond imagination and it sucks.

The food I eat, the clothes I wear, and everything else must meet her standards. She made me start working as a model when I was 10. I started by modeling her designs and later on, I got offers from different companies. With her influence of course.

Also, my mother made me go to etiquette classes, Can you believe that?

Sometimes it's hard managing school and work, but that's not my mother's problem.
