My Alpha Mate

Chapter 21

Tomorrow.

Tomorrow is the mating games and I'm freaking out.

Yesterday after breakfast with Isabel I went back to the pack house at watched tv all day long. I guess it was my day off.

The warm breeze blew my white fur as I ran, dodging large trees. My wolf felt free. Running kept my mind off of things that bothered me. It was my escape from reality. Yet right now, it's what I need to keep my mind on if I want a plan.

Plan one bradley:
I don't know what to do about this one. Why is he even coming for me? I have nothing to do with him, like move on! Isabel also had a point, why would Clair out of all people help me?
Hmm.. something weird is going on.

Plan two mating games:
If I go to the mating games and a war is about to happen, That's just putting even more people in danger and that's the last thing I need. Do I go?
Wait.. of course I have to go the Alpha King makes EVERYONE go. Not even joking. Okay well I guess I could go, meet my mate, and when a war comes I'll surrender myself so that nobody gets hurt.

'Our mate would be hurt' my wolf spoke.

My mate.. he might be crushed..
I whimpered and stopped running at the thought of our mate being hurt in anyway.

I don't know what to do.

I turned around and started my running again while trying o shake away reality.

The warm breeze calmed me and the sound of wind blowing by as I ran as fast as I could through the woods. I was running so fast it felt as if I was flying. I could feel a smile tug on my lips as I ran.

I could see the pack house come into view as I got closer. I slowed my pace all the way to a stop before walking behind a large tree where I know nobody was watching and I shifted to change into my clothes that I left by the tree.

"Hey Harper I was looking for you!" I heard a girls voice say behind me. I quickly turn around and see Emma standing there.

"Hey Emma." I say and smile to her.

"So I was wondering if you wanted to go to the mall?" She asks smiling hopefully.

"What for."

"The mating games of course!" She exclaimed.

"You already found your mate and why would we go shopping for that?" I ask clearly confused. What on earth is this girl thinking?

"Do you know what your wearing for it? And.. um." she said; not finishing her sentence as she rocked on feet and her face turning red.

"I think Cole and I are ready to be mated." She said biting her lip and looking at her feet and so quietly to where even when having werewolf hearing, I still almost didn't hear it.

"Oh! Uh.. Congrats!" I say startled.
To be honest that really wasn't what I was expected to hear.

"Mhm. So will you come?"

I thought about it for a moment, staring into her eyes that were filled with hope. What would it hurt if I did a little shopping?

"Okay..?" I said still unsure if I was choosing the right answer.

[...]

Oh my god. I look nasty.

Emma had me try on this black and gold dress that was the tightest, smallest, cloth of a dress that I had ever seen.

People always had told me I'm really skinny and I literally have no fat or whatever but.. I don't see it that way at all.

It looked like my curves sticked out to much and where my stomach was, there was a little bump. It made my thighs look fat and it looked like I had armpit fat.

I almost puked at the sight of me, and to top it off my face was naturally ugly without needing anything to make it worse.

"Whoah! Girl you look hot!" Emma said as she looked at the dress.

I heard a whistle from behind me as I whipped my long brown hair over my shoulder to see who it came from.

Two little boys who look... 10? Were standing there nodding their heads and looking me up and down.

"You look hot." the one said that had red hair that was down to his shoulders and braces and pale skin.
The other one that had shaggy blond hair with big glasses and lots of acne just nodded, agreeing with his buddy.

"Go away little kids!" Emma scolded as she shoved them out of the view while I stood there is shock.

"We're 12!" I heard one of them shout.

I sighed and shook my head in disgust but laughed a little remembering how when j was their age I would HATE it if I was considered a little kid.

I walked into the dressing room and grabbed the clothes that I wanted and thought looked cute and tried it on, walking out to see was Emma thinks.

I was wearing blue jeans with a black and red flannel. I'm kind of more casual then fancy if you haven't noticed.

"What? You didn't like the dress?" She asked standing up from the chair and looking lost and confused.

"I didn't look good in it and remember I'm going to have to hide in the woods with a ton of girls in hope that my mate finds me. I can't really be dressed up for that one." I say smiling in amusement.

"Fine, whatever but that only means I'm going to buy the dress."

"Okay." I laugh as I walk back into the dressing room, changing into my normal clothes, and buying my outfit.
