Second Chance.

Chapter Three.

I know graduating from high school is supposed to be this milestone in life but oh my gosh it is boring! Sitting listening to speeches and waiting through everyone's names was such torture. My parents leave after they congragulate us and take what felt like a couple hundred pictures. Turns out the errand they ran was to get us flowers and balloons. We stay behind to say goodbye and make plans for the party.

"You're driving tonight right?," I ask Zari. She is keeping me company while I'm waiting by the car for my brother. Her parents are waiting for her at their car a little ways down the parking lot. We finished talking to everyone but of course he has to take longer. I wish my parents would just let me leave him sometimes.

"Yeah sure just like always!," she tells me.

Zari doesn't drink because her father holds such an esteemed position she doesn't want to disappoint him or tarnish the legacy he built. I can understand that. At the same time I feel like she should let loose sometimes. There's nothing wrong with having fun. My dad holds a pretty high position as well but I can't be like her, I have to have fun sometimes.

"AIDEN!," I yell.

"Woah I'm right behind you," I turn to see him flinching at how loud I called his name.

"Sorry, I didn't know," I tell him while laughing.

We finally make it back home and Aiden goes straight upstairs to get ready. I go and say hey to my parents and tell them thank you for the flowers and balloons. After I finish talking to them I text Zarielle and tell her to let me know when she's ready and that if Aiden isn't we're leaving him and he can drive himself.

Why can't we walk there you ask? We all live on the same land but at the same time the territory is pretty big. Plus we'll have heels on. I feel like that says it all.

I go upstairs to pick out an outfit. I decide on a pattern crop top, black skater skirt, and a pink jacket. I pair it with black heels and some jewelry. After I pick out what I am wearing I go take a shower. I get out and get dressed, blow dry my hair, and do my make up. Just as I am putting on my heels Zari texts me.

"Hey I'm ready be outside in 10!"

"Okay I'm ready! I'll check on Aiden!"

"Kk"

I go over to my brother's room and knock on the door.

"Come in!," I hear him say from the other side.

"Hey Zari will be outside in 10 so be ready or we're leaving you and you can drive yourself," I let him know.

"Just leave without me," he says. "It's probably better if I drive myself anyway."

I just shrugg and tell him okay as I walk out of his room. Fine with me! I go downstairs and wait outside for Zari. She pulls up a couple minutes later.

"You look amazing!"

"Thanks girl! You do too!," I tell her.

"Now let's go have some fun!," she yells and laughs as she drives off towards Kellan's house.

When we get there some people are already drunk and acting stupid. So we do our best to avoid them as we walk up to the house. We walk in and it's unbelievably crowded. I'm not much of a crowd person but once I get some drinks in my system I should be fine. "I'm going to get a drink!," I yell to Zari and she nods okay as she heads to the dance floor to dance.

After successfully weaving through the crowd in the kitchen I get my drink then head back to dance with Zari. I am swaying and feeling the beat for awhile when I realize my drink is empty so I go and get another after another. About 8 cups later I am pretty drunk. I know what you're thinking 'there's no way she drank 8 cups and is still okay'.... but I did. Me being a werewolf and everything it takes longer for me to get drunk.

I have a few more cups to make sure I stay that way and continue to dance. That's when I feel this magentic pull so I look up and find a pair of amazing green eyes and I just know I found my mate. Let's just say I finally understand what my mom meant and I will no longer roll my eyes at her. This feeling is beyond what words can explain and with the look in his eyes I know he feels it too. When I realize who's eyes I am looking into I instantly freeze.

My mate is the next Alpha, Kellan Moon.
