Chapter 4

The Alpha's Promise:

A little info: (Turning of age is when you shift for the first time, therefore meeting your mate and being 16.)

Chapter 4: Celina

Two months it has been, two months and I still haven't found him. It's like he's hiding from me.

No one seemed to be worried, but I had panic attacks everyday. Well, maybe I was exaggerating that a little bit. Thinking about how he would look, wishing to feel warmth in my hands and my heart, it made my wolf and I go nuts. The pain would increase when I would witness other mates, cuddling with their other halves. Looking at each other with loving eyes, holding hands that would stay that way for eternity.

Rena, my best friend, being one of them. She never failed to flaunt him around, her warrior mate named Tanner. He was handsome, and as much as I could tell, very loving. She had already met him before she turned of age. She was one of the lucky ones; this my mother told me when I asked her about it.

I found myself downstairs in the kitchen, eating my breakfast with no expression on my face, looking bored to death. My hand moved monotonously, slowly scooping cereal out of my bowl and into my mouth until there was nothing left. Just an empty bowl that my spoon kept on scraping against when I still thought I was eating. The spoon had nothing on it as it went back and forth into and out of my mouth.

"Celina." I heard my father clear his throat, which snapped me out of my daze. How long have I been sitting here? I glanced at the clock and saw that it's been a whole hour. When I caught the look in my Dad's eye, I knew that we were carrying on the conversation that we had earlier this morning inside of his office.

"Please tell me that I don't have to go to school." I whimpered, not liking the idea of having homework, but then finishing it late because of my training lessons at home. My father didn't seem be having it with my whines today and glared at me. The one time he was actually being serious.

How I hated still being 16. I thought with a pout, while rubbing my ring. I looked down at it,trying to ignore what my father was trying to say. I gasped when I saw that the ring had a new addition to it. A sun! Intricately carved into the small ring on my finger.

How strange, that wasn't there yesterday, or the day I scooped it up out of the pool of water below the waterfall two months ago.

My father didn't seem to notice as he continued to babble on about there was no whining, blah blah blah, school.

"The answer is still no Celina, I mean it. It just isn't possible home-schooling you and full training the rest of the pack at the same time. Plus, I'm handling a lot of paperwork right now that will take a while to finish. With new pack members entering, it's easier this way. Your friends are joining too, don't worry." My dad responded, his arms were crossed, telling me this was not something I could beg my way out of.

"You're forcing them to go too?!" I shouted, but lowered my voice quickly at the look on his face.

"Of course not Lina, they had suggested coming themselves." He said, but in my mind I knew exactly what they did. Those traitors, falling for my dad's tricks and schemes. He was the Alpha after all.
