Overrated Mates

Chapter 1 Responsibilities

Chapter 1

Winter's POV

"Winter. You need to look good, you are the face of this pack and I will not let you disappoint your father! Now get ready!" My mom says from the doorway of my room. I continue to lay face down on my messy bed. I don't get why I have to get dressed.

"But Mom-" I start to say lifting my face out of the pillow so she could hear me.

"Don't but me Winter Fay, you will get ready and immediately. " She shuts the door as I stare after her. Did she just use my full name? That was low.

Grumbling I get up and take a shower. Being the oldest stinks. Especially if you are the Alpha's daughter, soon to be Luna, whoo! I wish my little brother Loyde was oldest. He didn't have do any of this stuff. He got to stay in his PJ's all day, why couldn't I.

'He's also only eight.' My inner self reminded me.

'Oh, shut up!' I told her.

"Chris!!!" I shouted knowing she would hear me. That was the great thing about being a werewolf, you had super hearing.

She showed up at the doorway saluting to me. She was always being silly and childlike.

'Yes, ma'am? You called." We both fell over laughing. Me and her had been friends forever, her full name was Christine Leclaire, we nicknamed her Chris when Loyde was born so it would be easier to say.

She and I were totally different. While we were about the same height she was tan and had black hair and blue eyes which I thought were gorgeous and she thought were plain. I on the other hand was pale with blonde hair and blue eyes.

"Ya, I have to go to this stupid lunch thing. Can you pick me out an outfit while I take a shower?" I motion to my knot of hair that stuck up around my head.

"Sure, I love doing picking out your outfits it is so fun, you should be my model." She said running to my closet. She wanted to be a fashion designer and she desperately wanted me to be her model. She says I am beautiful and need to embrace it yada yada. I think it is a bunch a poo.

After a shower and am happily in my silk robe I go out and see a whole bunch of outfits layed out on my newly made bed. I know Chris did it she is such a neat freak it's not even funny. Ok, it's hilarious but don't tell her that.

"Wella!" she says raising her arms in the air and spinning around like a ballerina.

I pick up the first outfit. A sparkly shirt and a skirt. Eew. I go to the next one, a purple dress. Why did I even buy this? Oh ya, Mom did. Finally I come to something I actually might wear. It was a pink silk shirt that flows in the perfect way and a black skirt.

"This one." I tell Chris holding it up. She nodded and shoves me back into the bathroom that is thankfully connected to my bedroom. I quickly get changed and get out a pony tail from my drawer and start to french braid my hair to the side. Then leave it for Chris to do.

"Chris!!" I yell.

"Yes?" She replies sticking her head in the door.

"Can you french braid my hair?" She nods and gets to work.

After applying slight makeup I go back out.

I hear a wolf whistle and scan the room to see Roselia, Christine's identical twin sister, sitting on my bed listening to music that blares through her headphones so loud even I can hear it.

"So Elsa, what are you getting dressed up for?" Ro asked commenting on how my hair matched Elsa's from Frozen. I stuck my tongue out at her.

"Winter is going to lunch!" Chris sang dancing around me.

"No, I thought she was going to dinner." Ro says sarcastically.

"Silly, stop messing with me!" Chris sits down next to her.

"WINTER ARE YOU ALMOST DONE?" Mom shouts from downstairs.

"Ya, I'M DONE!" I scream back.

"Well, go down there." Chris says kicking me out of my own room.

"Fine!" I huff and trudge down the stairs.

"You look cute!" Denus says going to ruffle my hair, but I slap his hand away!

"Don't touch the hair!" I demand. He put both hands up in surrender and I turned away before he ruffled my hair successfully.

I yelled at him telling him not to mess with me and he just went away laughing. He was my cousin so I couldn't fully go kill him so I went up to him and kicked the back of his knee and he went down in pain.

"Ha, I said don't touch the hair." I say walking away triumphant. "Serves you right."

Making my way to the kitchen I see my mom making coffee, she hears me and turns around. "You look nice honey, let me guess Christine?"

"Ya, I am so glad she is good with this stuff!" I sit down on the stool, "Sooo, why do I have to do this?"

"Because we are having Alpha Drake and his son Zachary come over to settle some issues." She said it like it was obvious. "And hopefully Zachary is your mate!"

I spewed the water I was currently drinking. "Mom, you are so gross! And we are already dating."

"Honey that was how your dad and I met." She said and took the seat next to me. "Your going to find your mate sometime! Why not have it be now?"

"I haven't even shifted yet Mom!" I whined some more. "I'm only fifteen!"

"Nonsense, I was fifteen when I found your father." She said patting my head which was now laying in my arms on the table.

"You are impossible! Where is Dad anyway, shouldn't he be getting ready for this lunch thing to?" I ask looking around the kitchen.

"You called." My dad popped his head through the doorway. He was wearing his best suit and tie. I had gotten my blonde hair from him and with his spiked up it looked pretty cool, for an older guy. But he wasn't that old. "You both look spactacular! And I love the shirt Winney. You look gorgeous." He kisses me on the forhead before kissing my mom. He nicknamed me Winney because he didn't like the name Winter. He and my mom made a bet that whatever color my hair was was going to be my name. Blonde or white, Winter, brown or black, April. He had been hoping for April, sorry Dad.

"I told you Leroy, stop calling her that. She isn't Winney the Pooh, now go put your hair down you look like your trying to be a teenager." My mom said drinking her coffee.

"And you like it." My dad chased her around the table until Tony our beta came in.

"They're here!' He called. Ok.
