 “Do you ever wonder why things turn out the way they do?”-A Walk to Remember

 

Megan Rosse’s P.O.V:-

Sometimes in life you have face obstacles that you never expected to face and just accept your destiny as it is. And as for me at this certain point in my life, I don’t know what I’m doing, nor do I know where I’m going, but as I’ve been told my entire life I have to do the right thing. But is this the only solution to my problem, is there no other way? As I stared at my father, still shocked at what he was proposing, I knew that I had no other option.

“Megan.” My dad said snapping me out of my thoughts. He gave me an annoyed glance, still waiting for my reply.

“Dad, I can’t do this. I-I’m only 18.” I said looking at my hands. I’ve been trying to avoid this conversation for a month now, but he won’t have it.

“Most wolves find their mate when their 16, and I this is a great opportunity, I mean the guys great and-“he was about to continue but I cut him off. I’ve been hearing the same lines for the past week now and I was sick and tired of it.

“Fine, I’ll do it.” I said sighing. I got up and left without a single word. I needed to get my thoughts straight.

I ran out of the house and shifted into my white wolf and took off towards the lake. I know in 18 and haven’t found my mate but is marriage the best resort? Being the strongest alphas daughter had its perks but it also had its downsides, one being I was the most sought after she-wolf at the moment. I have never had a guy come up to me just to get to know me, or be friends with me, no they came up to me hoping I would give them a chance and mate with them.

Protection, that was the reason for me getting married, or mated to the neighboring pack’s alpha. What was the best way to get to the fearless alpha? Get to his daughter, yippee. As I lay on the grass I couldn’t help but wonder what life would be like if I didn’t have the heritage or the alpha blood. I was brought out of my thoughts when I heard my grandma’s voice behind me.

“What’s wrong darling? You only come here when you’re upset.” She said in a motherly tone. It’s true, I usually came here when I wanted to clear my head, and my grandma’s house is even here so it’s the perfect escape. Who doesn’t like visiting their grandparents?

“Dad wants me to get married.” I said looking up at her.

She sighed. “Your father only wants what’s best for you my dear. It’s a cruel world, all people want is power and they’ll do anything for it.” She said lying down next to me.

“Then hire more guards, I don’t want this. It’s not something small, its marriage!” I exclaimed turning to face her. She gave me a warm smile in return.

“There’s something else bothering you, it’s not marriage that scares you, what is?” I sighed, she knew me too well.

“The love you have for another man will never outstand the love of a mate.” I said sighing. “I’m not scared of marriage; I’m just scared of never falling in love. Call me a hopeless romantic, but I want what all those other mates have.” It was true, my whole life mom would read me stories about how amazing the feeling of finding your mate and how magical it is.

“You never know what fate has in store for you.” She said wrapping her arms around me soothingly.

“I’m cursed!” I sighed dramatically falling onto the grass. She laughed and played along. “Well then we must cure this curse! How about I fix up my magic cupcakes to help?” she said in a serious tone.
