As the limo came to a stop, there was the black carpet. I stepped out and waved bye to the driver. She was nice after all, helping me calm down along the way to the Palace.

I walked inside slowly, looking around. Everyone was wearing black, white, or red. I guess the girls wanted the 'sexy' look. But the thing that scared me the most, I would be easily spotted. I wouldn't be able to blend in, I'll be a outcast even though I was already one. I was the sore thumb.

And of course the sore thumb got spotted. Many groups of people began talking and pointing at me.

Yea, I know. I'm ugly, I thought.

I moved through the dancing bodies. Everyone that was dancing was happy, they finally had found their mates. The people who found their mates already didn't get to attend.

I moved towards the buffet in the corner. No one was there anyways, so I wouldn't have to talk to them.

I grabbed a strawberry and shoved it into the chocolate fountain.

Where was my mate anyways? I came to this Ball so I could meet him. Unless he didn't show up. He couldn't have marked someone until he rejected our bond, but he could still be having sex. I wish I did meet my mate earlier, I heard that the mates help keep you stable.

'Mate.'

Who are you? Get out my head.

'I'm your wolf. Now go to mate.' She growled.

Suddenly I was hit with a amazing smell.

I looked around until I felt a pair of eyes staring at me. I turned around, now facing the throne. And on the throne was the Prince of the Werewolves, my mate.

He was beautiful and let me add hot. He had a muscular body I could see under his suit. His jaw were so sharp, I could freaking use them as a knife to cut the steak I eat. He had dark brown hair and a skin color between pale and tan.

He then turned over to face the King and whispered something. The King said something to the Queen.

The King had walked up to he microphone followed by his wife and son. Silence suddenly followed after they started to talk.

"It seems like my son has found his mate."

"And he shall call her up." The Queen continued.

"Her." The Prince finally spoke, pointing to me.

He chosen me! He didn't even have regret or anything in his eyes! He liked me enough to even tell everyone!

As I looked around and I saw everyone clapping except the people who didn't get to see their mate yet, which was few.

I smiled brightly for once and started moving towards my mate, until I was shoved by a girl near my age.

"OH MY GOD! I LOVE YOU TOO NICOLAS!"

She then went a hugged the Prince, apparently he was named 'Nicolas.'

'Stupid slut!'

That was rude wolf.

'The name is Ava.'

I suddenly left a pang of pain, resulting me to fall down and hit my head.

The world went dark.

The final words I heard was from Ava.

'Stupid mate, stupid slut. They caused you pain, and today was the day you could finally be happy.'

Have a Happy New Years guys! There will be downfalls this year, but also the time where we can finally accomplish our life goals. For any day can be your last, be grateful.
