"This is stupid and pointless " I wined. My father is trying to help me find my mate. A werewolf's mate is usually in their pack but we have looked everywhere and that's not the case. My dad has called a meeting with all of our surrounding packs for tonight. "not at all sweetie. You will find your mate tonight. Now go get ready " he ordered. I rolled my eyes and headed to my upstairs bedroom. I already had a new dress with matching shoes that we bought last night. This meeting is supposed to be formal and everyone is dressing up. That's not really my style though. There was a knock at the door "miss Amber. Your father sent me to help you get ready " our house maid Anna said. Our family is pretty rich, all of the packs are. We have our own schools and each pack has a pack house. "come in" I called moving to my vanity. When she opened the door she walked in holding a handful of stuff. "I assume my dad requested all of this? " I asked rolling my eyes. "yes miss" she nodded. I shook my head and we were quiet while she set up her materials.

After about two hours I was ready. I looked in the mirror and the person I saw sure as hell wasn't me. My usually straight hair was now a sea of black curls, my usually pale face was now more tan and my eyes had so much make up. Don't get me wrong I look pretty but I'm just not used to it. My skinny jeans and T-shirt was replaced by a beautiful, short, black dress. (picture up top). I had on black heels to match it. Anna smiled "you look beautiful miss" then nodded and left the room. I checked my phone and it was 5:00 pm. It starts in an hour. I should hurry up because my dad wants to be there early. I walked quickly down the stairs and seen my parents all dressed up waiting for me. Their mouths dropped. They aren't used to seeing me all dressed up. "you look beautiful darling " my mom complimented and my father agreed. "thanks" I replied. Then we got into our car and left. Our pack house has many rooms and one of those rooms is a ball room. This is where the meeting will occur.
When a werewolf finds their mate they have an overwhelming feeling of wanting to be with their significant other. This never goes away but in fact grows after the male marks the female to show that she is taken. Upon first meeting your mate it will feel like you have known then forever, well at least this is what I have been told. I'm kinda doubting that I will feel this strongly about a man whom I have never met, but you never know. The car comes to a stop and my door is opened for me. Only our pack is here yet. I'm honestly kinda nervous about this whole thing. "hey uncle Jay" I smiled. My dad is alpha and Jayson is beta but I call him uncle Jay. "hey Amber. Good luck with finding your mate. Rose is in the house". Rose is his daughter and my best friend. I smiled and rushed in side. "Amber!" Rose said jumping into my arms. She is 16, the same as me. We started laughing "hey" I said. We spent a few minutes together but then people started arriving and I had to take my seat. There are four main seats: one for my dad, uncle Jay, my mom, and one for me. I was anxious but that was the only feeling I had when all of the guests were walking in. I was greeted and complimented my many before I needed some fresh air. I excused myself and quickly walked outside. To many people for my liking. I walked along side the woods and took in the view of the beautiful moon. Then I had a weird feeling. Not of fear but of excitement. I knew my mate was near. Then I heard rustling in the trees. "come out so that I can see you " I demanded. A man walked out of the shadows and my jay dropped. This was the single most attractive man I have ever seen and I do believe that he is my mate. He walked closer and walked a circle around me. "your my mate? " he sounded confused. Was I not good enough for him? "what is that supposed to mean? " I asked and I let my sadness show a little to much. "its not a bad thing " he reassured me "your beautiful and all but our packs hate each other. That's why I was in the shadows. I wasn't invited " he shrugged. "oh" I said "so you are my mate? " I asked. He chuckled then took my hand and placed his hand on my heart "can't you feel it? " he leaned down and whispered into my ear "yes. You are my mate. You are mine" he growled the word mine and it sent butterflies to my stomach. "my name is Jackson. From the pack blood moon" he smirked "and you are Amber from the silver crescent pack". "how did you-" I started in confusion as to how he knows me. "I have known about you for a while princess " he said taking my hand "now. Let's go". He started walking to the woods. "I have to go tell my parents " I stated pulling towards the pack house. He sighed "fine. But let's make this quick "
