Wow. Just, Wow.

Where were you

Chapter 2

After the little gathering last night I was tired out of my mind. I thought of nothing but sleep, so when I got home I walk straight up stairs, into my room, and flopped on my queen sized bed. Once I hit my soft cushiony blankets I was gone. Which explained why I woke up still in my dress, surprised by the fact I wasn't uncomfortable at all.

"Naomi breakfast is ready!" my mom yelled from the kitchen.

"I'll be down in a sec!" I replied letting her know I was awake.

"Well hurry up Liz is here!"

"Alright I'll be down in 20"

I took off my dress and laid it on my bed and hopped in the shower for five minutes and hoped back out. After that I blow dried my clean hair, picked out black skinnies, a white t-shirt, and my favorite blue hoodie that matched the color of my eyes. I was ready for the day.

I walked into the kitchen and there was Liz was sitting at the marble counter top in the middle of our kitchen. Eating the breakfast my mom had made us.

She was wearing a Polo v-neck shirt with blue jeans, Converse, and big silver hoop earrings.

"Morning",

"Morning",

"So how the the little gathering go last night?",

"It was alright. Sadly my mate-to-be was nowhere to be found.",

"Aww, bummer",

"Speaking of which why didn't you go?",

"Didn't wanna go",

"You didn't want to go because of you ex, or you didn't want to because of your father?"

"Both."

I knew she was gunna say that. Her dad wasn't like mine he was more strict, serious and barely let her do anything. He was also my father's Beta and has been for ten years now.

Her mother was human and didn't really know much about the werewolf world. The "mating" part that is.

Her ex, Jason, is currently with the Black Sun Pack. They were together for about three years until he found his mate. She would say that being around him didn't bother her when it obviously did.

Liz is like a sister to me she is the only person I tell my secrets to. Things I couldn't tell my mom I told Liz.

"So did you see Jason?"

"Yea."

"Hows he doing?"

"He seems like his doing well." As I started to prepare my plate I couldn't help but look at her when she asked that question. She missed him. Her face said it all, even though she tired to hide her brown eyes behind her "wall" of jet black hair, I could see it.

"Its been three months since he found his mate. I don't know why I can't let him go"

"You'll find your mate soon and then you'll be able to let go"

"You're right" she continued to eat her breakfast.

"Hey you wanna go shopping after this?", she asked me

"Sure! Let's go"

* * * *

After we ate we jumped in my black Mustang and reached our destination with in ten minutes time.

I started to go through my list of things I needed. School was starting back up next month and I needed a whole new wardrobe.

I got through my list quite quickly I got three pairs of shoes, two dresses, five blouses, three pairs of jeans, and some accessories. Liz pretty much got the same amount. She seemed to be getting over her little depression stage. Shopping is a good let out for her. She was able to get what she wanted without complaint. We were nearly done with our shopping spree, all I need was cosmetics and hygiene products.

Right as we walked up to Bath and Body Works, a guy with two girls under each arm were exiting the store. The two girls were smiling, and laughing a lot as though he just told a really funny joke.

I didn't pay much attention because a guy with two girls at his sides, they were, was screaming player and easy. Who am I to say what that was? I didn't know them. Don't judge a book by its cover, I thought to myself. As I walked past him, shrugging off the thought, I got a whiff of his cologne. It smelt so good that my nose followed along with them. I closed my eyes and it was as though I was submerged in his scent. When I opened my eyes I realized that the guy and I were standing face to face. He looked like the younger version of Tristan, but his eyes had a hint of yellow in them. He smiled, which was absolutely gorgeous, and growled the word "Mate".

Right when he said that a sudden chill went down my spine and my wolf was starting to get excited. I wanted to jump on his perfectly fit body and be caressed in his arms.

I could see the girls he was with gave me hate filled glares, but I didn't give a damn. I was too mesmerized by the man standing in front of me. Liz was probably confused as to what was going on and I didn't need to look back to confirm it. I was confused too for a moment then I didn't care anymore.I felt my wolf trying to come out and be held by her mate.

Just when I couldn't hold her back anymore. His expression went from mesmerized to serious. I could feel his emotions change from happy,excited, and lustful into ashamed, heartbroken, and disgust. He was fighting for control. My wolf became confused at this point and stopped fighting for control. Why he was fighting his wolf and so did my wolf? Then he spoke.

"Please. Don't take this personal or anything but. I can't accept you as my mate".

Hey that's it for this chapter plz comment and let me know what you think so far :)
