Mates

chapter 11

I was nervous. Plain and simple. Nervous to have everything perfect, to see if ANYONE showed up cause let's face it I'm not popular. And nervous to see everyone or whoever shows up see this..side of me. I've never worn a dress or skirt before.. Well yeah okay maybe in third grade and before that, but than after that no. I hate skirts, dresses and booty shorts.. Cause tey be showing to much and making me feel useless and stuff and can't do anything.

I don't like them. But today is an exception.

Entering the hotel wasn't as bad as I thought. We had gotten there early enough before anyone arrived.

It was 8 pm and no one had arrived. This is bad I thought.

I started getting kinda sad. What if no one showed up? God this will be humiliating!

********

And hour later people started trickling in by groups of four or five. 30 minutes after that there were around 100 people inside dancing to whatever music the dj played.

Yes I hired a dj. Why? Cause I hoped that would make people stay.. And it did.

Jared's Pov

Today is her birthday. Today is the day I'll confess to her my love. Today my mate will be mine. She will know she is mine and only mine. That no one and I mean no one can touch her, look at her or even think of her more than just a friend. Because if they do.. Goddes Artemis help them for I will punish them severely.

I've been keeping my distance purposely so she'd miss me, but I dont think is has the effect I want on her. Now for her friends.. well they havent been around her much . It's not my fault... Well okay maybe I have something to do with it.

And since they are in the pack they have no choice, but to listen to an order. I gotta love my status.

Lost in thought I didnt notice I was right infront of the hotel I was staying at. Yeah I know what your thinking, Why dont I just stay in the pack house? Well for one I dont feel like returning there just yet. Opening the door I bumped into someone. Annoyed I looked up and saw the one person that will brighten my world no matter what i'm going through. Tamara. She looked up and seemed surprise to see me there.

"What are you staring at?" I asked her.

"She looked down and mumbled something I could't really catch before she stepped around me. I just stood there at the door in as state of daze. It took me a while to realize that My question might have come across as rude. Shit I messed that up.

Finally realizing that I've been standing at the door for too long I started walking to the elevator when I noticed that there was a lot of workers inside the ballroom. HMM a party. Im so there.

****

Looking at myself in the full length mirror one last time I headed out the door and into the elevator. Dialing Sam's number I stood waiting.

"Hullo" A raspy voice answered.

"Sam. you up for crashing a party at the hotel?" I asked.

"Be there in five with the usuals" I cpuld tell he was grinning.

Hanging up I left the elevator and entered the ballroom filled with people from high school. So basically all werewolves dancing. Sweet. Looking around I notice balloons everywhere and decorations, but none of which were pink like most girls do.

Walking straight to the drinks table I noticed there wasnt any alcohol. Ugh Oh well. I wont be staying here for long anyways. I got someone to surprise later on today.

Turning around to lean on the table I Lifting up my fruit punch to drink when something, or rather someone caught my eye.

She was beautiful. She had on a red dress that barely reacher her knees. Sequins decorated her waist. She had on a natural glow to her. Her face had barely any make-up. Her blonde hair was in waves and to the right side of her shoulder.

I could do her- I stopped my thoughts from going any further than that. I had a mate and here I was lusting over someone else.

Putting own my drink I dragged my hand down my face in frustration.

I need to leave. Now. I need to see her. I need to take this beautiful girls face out of my head. She isnt my mate and I cant think of her like I should be with my mate.

Heading for the exit I bumped into Sam.

"Yo Jared were you going?"

"Leaving"

"What? Naw man you gotta stay! We needa see who this chick is that is in the red. She is smokin' " Sam dragged me back inside and towards the beauty. As soon as those words left his mouth I growled.

Wait A sec.. I fucking growled at Sam for a chic I dont know? Fuck I need to leave. Like now.

"Sam I really need to-" He interrpted me by speaking to her.

"Hey babe. What's your name?" He was gonna try to seduce her. I know it.

She looked up in confusion and said "It's me Sam" This both shcoked and confused me and Sam.

"UMM who?" sam asked

"Tamara. I sit right beside you in English" She said.

"Tam? Fuck you look hot in that dress" This earned a blush from her. I on the other hand was pist at Sam. How dare he look at my mate like that.

"Fuck of Sam. She's mine" I said through gritted teeth.

He looked at me confused "What?" The it dawned on him. "Sh-she's your mate?"

Nodding I looked at her and saw her looking at me like I was crazy along with looking pist.

"Excuse me , but I am no object to be owned by you" Her face was turning a shade of pink.

This pained me. My mate doesnt want me. " Tam.." I notice she shivered a little at my mention of her name "Can we talk.. please?"

She looked at me and saw that I really needed to talked to her before nodding "Alright"
