Finding Myself

Unexpected

Chapter 2

Remembering the past can not be through looking at the photographs or remembering the things that happened to you. Remembering the past is all about the people which life brings to you and takes away from you. When I think about the past all I can remember is how amazing a person Gabriel was. He would play with me and help me get up when I fall. We used to talk all the time and he would tell me how hard it was being the Alpha heir.

He would tell me that the only thing he wanted was to be a doctor and heal people. Not just to be a person who orders around but to be someone that actually means something. Of course he always loved the power of being the alpha heir but at the same time he wanted more. Like I said he was someone different when we were friends. But then everything literally fell apart. It all started when we began high school.

People started to be around him more, asking for his affection or some kind of recognition. They not only respected him but also praised him in every way. I remember very well, on the first day of school I was late because I was going to congratulate him for finally starting high school and reaching a new treshold in our lives but then I overheard some people talking to him about me. They were telling him how badly his image could be damaged if he continued to be around me because he was the alpha heir and people would laugh at him if I was with him. I never thought he would actually listen to them. I mean come on! We were best friends, right?

But that was exactly what happened. He stopped talking to me and found new friends. He went as far as acting like I never even existed. That was what hurt me the most. Then everyone started to change. Girls started to wear revealing clothes and do make up while boys started to discuss who can be easy enough to hook up. They disgusted me! Not only were or are  they shallow but they were also all after power. All the female werewolves wanted to be with Gabriel because they wanted to be the Luna.

God this was and still is so frustrating!

When I saw the concrete building of our school, I let out a sigh. Finally I arrived, my legs were burning from all the walk. Thank god there's something called music otherwise I would have died from boredom. When I walked inside the school I was listening The Box Tops - The letter and ignoring all the pitiful glances. I stood in front of my locker and took out my English homework. Yeah I'm a nerd sue me. That's when I heard him, Gabriel... He walked into the school with a girl in his arms, laughing. He was talking to her and not looking anywhere but her. Out of nowhere, he raised his head and looked around the hall like he was searching for something, the girl was forgotten.

He smelled the air and snapped his head towards me and his eyes widened. I didn't know what was going on until I took a deep breath. I didn't even realize that I wasn't breathing until I was almost choking. When I took a breath I smelled a magnificent scent. It was an odor of a MAN. It smelled like earth right after the rain on a warm summer night mixed with burning autumn leaves. It may sound weird but it was one of the most manly and intoxicating scent I've ever smelled.

That moment I realized that Gabriel was mine. He was my mate and only mine. But I guess he had other thoughts because he turned his head angrily and left the building hastily. I felt anxious and heartbroken. I never thought I would feel this way, this hurt but at the same time this angry. I walked out of the doors right after him to ask what was going on.

When I arrived at the parking lot, I looked around but he was nowhere to be found. Then I caught his scent near the woods surrounding our school. I found my way easily because I was a girl on a mission. I found him punching a tree. He looked really pissed off.

"What that tree ever do to you?" I asked smiling nervously. I was nervous because of his reaction but he was my mate after all.

He turned to me and his eyes looked like he was ready to kill. At first I didn't think that his anger was directed at me but he was breathing hard and shaking then I realized that he didn't want me as his mate. He was ashamed of me...
