Isabelle's POV

It was the next morning and I was awoken by a large growl. I hadn't realized that I stayed at the pack house until I saw Alpha Zander looking like he was about to rip my brother to shreds.

I know I should hate my brother for the abuse he's put me through all these years, but I can't stop myself from protecting him.

Even though I couldn't shift, I sure as hell could growl. And that's exactly what I did. I growled at my Alpha.

Zander immediately ripped me away from the scene roughly, "I-I'm sorry b-but he's my brother.." I whimpered. I was scared.. scared of the Alpha pulling me away from everyone.

"Don't ever do that again!" he growled, causing me to yelp. "You dare disrespect me?! I could turn you into a filthy rogue right now." he said with disgust laced in his voice. Before I knew it he walked away.

It's been a couple hours since our little 'incident' and I've been occupying myself with work around the pack house. I don't understand why he hates me so much, I mean I just met the guy. But I guess it can't be helped.

It's now 6pm, my best friend Caitlyn came over to help me get ready for the mating ceremony. I was nervous, but I prayed to the moon goddess that she gave me a good mate so I could escape my family.

"Stop moving!" Caitlyn playfully growled, she was trying to do my makeup but the brushes were tickling my eyelids so I couldn't help but laugh. "I'm— I'm..- sorry" I said between wheezes, "I swear if you were anybody else I'd rip your throat out right now" she scowled "Awe Lynny it's okay!" I said before quickly bursting into laughter.

Caitlyn took an hour to finish my makeup, hair, and clothing. She refused to let me see the outcome until she was 100% finished.

"Alright!" she said with an ear to ear smile. "Turn around!" she squealed.

I did as she said and turned around. I didn't even recognize myself. I gasped at the sight. My dark brown hair was loosely curled and was all resting on one shoulder, my makeup wasn't too heavy. By that I mean I didn't look like a caked mess. And my dress... Oh my. It was a gorgeous long red gown with sparkly white flowers fading into the bottom. It hugged my curves perfectly, I smiled as I saw my hourglass figure that I adored pop out. The dress puffed out just a tiny bit from the waist down, which I assumed it was like that so I could walk easier. Caitlyn had me wear white heels, and hold a white clutch. I was still in complete awe with my looks.

I turned to Caitlyn who was strapping on her heels, and I wrapped my arms around her before she could even stand up. "Thank you" I whispered.

The drive to the pack house was the longest 10 minutes of my life. I wanted to die of nervousness right then and there. I closed my eyes hoping it would stop time... but then I felt the car make a turn. And that's when I knew it, the moment I'd been dreading was here.

My palms were sweaty but I managed to keep myself looking non-nervous I guess. I latched onto Caitlyn as we walked through the large double doors. My body was feeling weirder than normal, but i shrugged it off and grabbed a glass of champagne off a tray from a waiter passing by.

Caitlyn had sniffed out her mate and left me 20 minutes ago, so I took it upon myself to move my body upstairs to get away from everyone.

I had been leaning on the balcony for a couple minutes before I felt a presence behind me. The scent coming off this person was intoxicating, it was like a drug. I quickly turned around only to be met by Alpha Zander himself. His wide eyes stared at me with so many emotions inside them. The only ones I could make out were confusion, and disgust. "Alpha." I bowed my head in respect. He sniffed me one more time and automatically said the words "mine."

We stood there for a couple minutes staring at each other, but then he decided to break the silence with the most hurtful words I've ever heard. "You can't be my mate!" he said with disgust. My heart hurt, I felt a tear try and escape my eye but I quickly blinked it away. "I-I'm sorry?" I whispered. "Let me make myself clear Isabelle." He said my name with disgust and hatred, and it hurt. "I will NOT have a WEAK Luna" he yelled. "I, Zander Reigh. Reject, Isabelle Collins as my packs Luna, and as my mate." Zander said with a glare. I couldn't help but runaway.
