*BEEP BEEP BEEP*

I reach for the clock but it's on Hunter's side.

*BEEP BEEP BEEP*

"Hunter shut it off.", I whisper groggily. He just groans turning the other away.

*BEEP BEEP BEEP*

I shove him off the bed making him fall right on top of the plug.  Giggling quietly I roll over to lay flat on my stomach.

"Thank you Hunter.", I say smirking shoving my face into the pillow. Next thing I know i'm eating floor.

"Your welcome Amaya.", I hear him walk out and I just lay there ready to fall asleep again.

"GET READY AMAYA THE BUS COMES AT 11 O'CLOCK.", I jump up from the floor seeing it's 9:30. I grab my towel running to my shower completely nervous.

'Be easy my child. We will find your mate. He'll protect us and our family.', Arctic says calming me down. I get out the shower realizing

"OMG I didn't pick out a dress !", I yell to myself. I put on my underwear set. I go back into the bathroom putting on my makeup not knowing what to match it with. I straighten my hair then go back to my room taking all the accessories from my bag. Laying it out on my bed my mom walks in.

"Hey Maya how's it coming.",Shes asks me hold her hands behind her back. She's calm today meaning she took her meds. I wrap my towel tightly around me hugging her with my free arm.

"Mom i'm so dumb. I thought I had an outfit for today but I spaced in the store only getting these stuff.",I say pointing to my bed.

"Well Amaya guess what I have.", She pulls a beautiful black layered dress causing me to gasp.

"Mom this is beautiful where did you get this from ?",I ask grabbing it genitally.  Mom smiles sitting down on the edge of my bed.

"It was the outfit I wore when I first went to mate ball. The outfit I wore when I met your father.", I sit next to her handing it back.

"Mom I can't wear this it means way too much to you."

"Amaya you mean way much more to me. This dress deserves another chance at love.",She says sliding her hand down my face. "It deserves a fresh start.", a tear sliding down her face.

"We all deserve a fresh start.", I hug her then she gets up.

"Now get dressed it's 10:55 you don't want to keep that lucky man waiting.", I giggle dropping my towel. I slide one foot then the next into the dress and it fits me perfectly. Mom zips me up and I bend putting on my shoes. I put my hat, then my rings, bracelets, lastly my choker. I look in the mirror gasping at what I see. I look amazing.

"Mom this dress is unbelievable.", I say turning to her.

"You look beautiful baby.", she says quietly. I go to hug her. "I'm not leaving you behind.", I whisper in her ear.

"Amaya it's time to go-
Hunter walks going in us turning it into a group hug. "I love you mom.".  I feel her wolf purring with joy, something that hasn't happened in a while.

"Okay my pup's you're all going to be late now.", a car horn blows from outside and I jump up with joy and nervousness. I grab my duffle bag running down the stairs grabbing Hunter with my other hand. We get in the school bus we sit in the back as everyone watches us. I get glares at me while Hunter gets looks of admiration. It's actually frustrating. All these people has at one point beaten me and left bruises even Arctic can't heal. But with him he had it easy. Never had to look behind his shoulder to see if he was being followed. Never had to flinch when a person raised their hand. Never got hit by mom when she was off her meds. I know he loves me, but he's nothing like me.  We sit down and I take the window seat. I lean my head against his shoulders making the rest of the eyes wander away from us.
