How can he know we're his mate if we aren't even eighteen yet?! I run my hands through my hair as I stare at the beautiful lilacs in front of me.

I don't know! I only know as much as you do, so basically nothing.

Shut up!

Jeez just kidding.

This is no time to kid!

Currently I'm in the garden behind the pack house having a conversation with my wolf. Madam hasn't yelled at me once since Jason came by earlier. It's all very strange, how can I be sure he's my mate? Well, someone probably wouldn't joke about a mate. Or would they? I can't tell, things that seem the cruelest are the things that usually happen to me. It would be nice for Jason to be my mate, he's the only one who hasn't abused me. Sure, he never stopped it but he never joined in.

Would he leave me like in my dreams? It's almost impossible to bear a rejection or give one, but it's me. My mate will probably reject me in a heartbeat. I mean, who would want an ugly, broken, idiot, coward, and worthless mate?! No one, that's who. The rejection will kill me, even though I know it's coming. I'll just become even more pathetic, if possible.

Alexandra! Don't think like that!

Why? It's true.

It is NOT true! Our mate will love us unconditionally! He will take our flaws and fix them. I mean, didn't you see how he wasn't afraid to show affection towards us in front of another person?

He pulled away as soon as Madam came....

To intimidate her for insulting us! He loves us, we're his mate.

You know what? You're right! He loves us! Goddess, I can't wait to see him again!

YOU can't wait?! I'm going crazy doing nothing but sitting in the back of your head!

Do you think Madam would allow us to get a little food?

ALLOW?! She can't control us anymore! Our mate is an alpha, her alpha to be exact.

Well, he's not an alpha yet.

Whatever, point is you are her future Luna!

I suppose you're right....

Am I ever wrong?

Yes, all the time.

Hey!

I chuckle as I stand from the bench and walk inside the pack house. I get glares from other members but it's to be expected. No one besides Madam knows I'm Jason's mate. I just ignore their harsh glares and their name calling as I make my way towards the kitchen. I take one deep breath before I enter and find Madam fixing lasagna for the pack's lunch. I step closer and she looks up before quickly looking down.

"Is there something I can do for you?" Madam asks after swallowing audibly.

"I-I-I was just hungry and I was wondering if I could have an apple to eat?" I close my eyes and prepare to be hit and name called for my request.

"No need to ask, Luna. Help yourself," my eyes shoot open and go wide as she returns to her task.

"T-t-thank you," as if on cue my stomach grumbles and Madam's head whips around to look at me.

"What can I make you Luna?" Madam wipes her hands off on her apron as a worried look settles on her face.

"I don't want to inconvenience you, I can just eat an apple Madam," Madam's face then turns into a frown.
