Crescent Moon [Paused]

Two

I woke up at six am in the morning. By now my Dad had carried me to my room and covered me with some blankets.

I didn't know how but I felt better. To be honest I was completely refreshed. My nausiea was gone. My body didn't achd and to top it all off my headache had vanished.

I smiled as I got up and out of my room. Downstairs, I heard the tv on with some faint snores.

Walking into the living room, I gazed at Annabeth and Percy snoring away. I smiled at the idda of being like that with my mate. But the thought of that made me mad.

If I had my mate, I'd lise my status. Percy woukd become Beta and I . . . I'd become a Luna. I didn't want that to happen. i wanted to become the Alpha. it was the only thing I liked about becoming Beta. The hope that one day I'd become the first female Alpha in over three centuries.

Grabbing the tv remote, I cut off the tv to notice Annabeth snuggling up next to Percy. They seemed so peaceful together.

Turning around with a smile, I headed to the kitchen to make something to eat. After fixing myself a sandwich, I smiled and headed back to my beadroom. After eating a voice came ti me. Amazed I smirked.

Scarlet! I nodded. Where the tarter sauce have you been? I haven't heard from you in weeks.

In pain. She remarked sarcastically. But I'm better now.

We're better now. I corrected.

I feel like your mother was right. Scarlet continued. Our mate is close. I can smell him. My hunger calls for him.

Can you tell him not to come. I pouted. I don't want him. I want to become Alpha.

Scarlet growled. I guess she didn't share my enthusiasm. Who could blame her. She was programed to claim her mate. She was my wolf aftet all.

Lydia. I don't condone your attitude towards our mate. She assertrd. You haven't even seen him. I'm sure once you meet him you'd fall hopelessly in love with him.

I think I'll take a pass on that. I murmured burrowing ny dace into my pillow.

Just try not to reject him. Scarlet pleaded. Because we love him.

Not replying to the last comment, i shut Scar out. I couldn't deal with her thoughts. Scarlet was blinded by the Moon Goddess, while I wasn't.

Around seven thirty I decided to get dressed for school. I took a shower, brushed my teeth and got dressed. Ya know the usual stuff.

When I was ready, I went down staird and took my car keys from the dish bowl.

School was boring. All I could think about was what Scarlet told me. Just try not to reject him. Hiw could I. He was my mate. Regardless of what my mind wanted to do when I met him I'd fall hopelessly in love with him exactly how Scarlet assumed.

I went through my day on neutral. Occasionally paying attention in classes. First period was Pre Calculus. It was easy but I didn't care. Half the time I spent my days talking to Scarlet. My second period was American Government. The teacher Mr Johnson was pretty cool. He was one of the elders from a neighboring pack so he left me sleep in the class. I took naps occasionally. What can I say I love my sleep.

When lunch came around all I ate was a side of fries and a few bites out of a bacon cheeseburger.

After school, i went straight home and again Scarlet was nagging on and on about my supposed mate.
