Forgive & Forget

Marcus POV

" You need to find your mate son."

Another pointless fight with the alpha.

" I don't want one, dad, it's hard enough to prepare to become alpha with out worrying about my mate following me around like a lost puppy."

Ever since my dad had decided he was going to retire and hand me down the title in 3 months, he has been pestering me into finding my mate.

" Non sense, no son of mine will lead my pack with out a luna!"

I could tell he was mad by the way his light blue eyes were now black as coal.

" You know how hard it was for me after your mother di-"

"Dad stop it please."

My mom had been murdered by a couple of rogues 3 years ago. It was a dark time for the pack after that, but we were able to get through it since we are the strongest pack in the U.S.

" Marcus you have to get over it; it was 3 years ago, son. "

Now it was my turn to get angry. My normally blue and green eyes were now dark as night.

" I'm sorry I'm the only one in this room who cared about her," I said.

I knew it was mean, but I was too mad at him to care right now.

" Are you asking me if I loved your mother, pup?" he growled.

I could tell that it wasn't him talking that his wolf was now in control.

"No," I said. " I just really miss her dad."

His anger passed and he looked at me with a sympathetic look.

" Me too son, but we have to try harder to get over her, ok?"

I looked at him for a moment before I said," Ok."

After that he dismissed me from our meeting, but not before he made a point to shout," Remember son, you need a mate soon!"

Marcus POV

" So what did the alpha want?" asked my best friend and soon to be beta Trevor.

We were on our way to the mall.

" Nothing just bothering me about the mate thing, like always."

Trevor looked at me from the passenger seat in my 2012 Porsche I got for my birthday, and said,

" You know he has a point, you need a mate marcus. It will make everything easier on you."

I looked at him. He never had to worry about his mate. His childhood love Lizzy turned out to be his mate at the age of 16, when most people found there mates. His parents never pestered him. I wish it was that easy for me.

" I know Trevor, let's not talk about this. I need a new pair of sunglasses, because Becky broke mine after I dumped her friday. "

Becky and I had been off and on through out high school and since I'm a junior it has been about 2 years. She hasn't realized that I'm only with her to satisfy me. She is what you would call the schools bimbo. She's just been tossed around by everyone.

" You'd think she'd get the hint by now, Marcus." Trevor muttered.

Now we had already picked my sunglasses and were sitting in the food court when Lizzy, Trevors mate, walks in and joins us.

" Hey babe." she says and plants one on Trevors lips.

He smiles at her before saying, " What are you doing here?" she laughs and says, " Well I called you and you didn't answer so I called Emily and she said you were here, so I decided to surprise you."

Emily is my sister; she's one year younger than me and she was probably the only person I trusted, besides Trevor.

After that we just walked around and shopped. I ended up buying a pair of Vans and some Jordans. Lizzy was the one who pulled us back to reality when she said," Guys we should get back; it's 9:30 and we have school tomorrow."

After that wake up call we made our way back to the mansion, or the pack house where people in the pack lived. Least to say, it had at least 50 rooms with a dining room big enough to fit 300+ people in. That's actually around how many people lived in the house. Like I said we are the biggest pack on the continent and we need a big house.

My mom designed it a couple years before she died. By now I was in my room laying on my king size bed. With a black silk comforter, it was easily the softest thing I had ever laid on. My mom had spent an extra long time designing my room. But that was my mom: the nicest person I knew. She helped before she asked for it. My mom....

**************

School was extra boring; I don't know if it was the fact that it was the third week since summer ended or the fact that I had a test in every period. I was just walking out of my 3rd period class when I noticed two of my fellow pack members fighting a bunch of the football jocks. I pushed my way through the crowd who was of course chanting " fight".

I knew my pack mates could easily kill the humans, which is why I was trying to get to them before anything got out of hand. I finally got through the crowd and had just enough time to catch a punch thrown from a pack mate at a human.

" Stop," I growled at them using my alpha tone.

Even though I wasn't the alpha yet, it still had power over them. They quickly stopped and made their way out of the crowd who had already started to dissolve since their was no longer a fight.

" Go to class, we will talk about this later," I growled.

6th period was the last period of the day and it was, to say the least, the worst class of the day. Becky was in that class and today I just didn't have the patience with her. Luckily she didn't say anything to me since our seats were a couple rows away. I plugged my earphones into my iPhone 5 and zoned out to my teacher yapping about something called biogeochemical cycle.

I was on my way to the sweet sanctuary called my porsche when the annoying voice of Becky shrilled through the air. What now......
