"Wait up! You're going too far, Princess!" Yelled my mom. "You'll have to do better than that if you want to catch me, Mommy!" I remember running far, believing I was just playing. It was just my mom, Caleb, and I. Caleb and I have always been inseparable. He is set to be my Beta, and I a first time female Alpha. My pack, the Silver Moon Pack, is the strongest one.

"Seriously, Amara! You are leaving our grounds! Stop! Right now!" I was only six at the time, and being a future Alpha, the power of a Luna or an Alpha in this case, does not work on me. I did stop though. Right outside our border. "Caleb! Get Amara and run! It is not safe. Call Alpha, now". Caleb was eight. Neither of us had shifted yet, but Caleb could mind link my father already. "Yes, Luna."

Caleb picked me up and started to move in the opposite direction. I struggled against him, seeing my mom not moving with us. She has a force field around her as a rogue jumped out of the forest. My mom was a witch and was my father's mate. She wasn't just any witch, but a high witch. I ran back to her, wanting to help, grabbing onto her leg, with tears in my eyes. "Princess, it is not safe, please go with Caleb. Your father is coming". More rogues came out. We all slowly backed back into our territory.

The rogues didn't care. They thought we were alone, so they crossed our land. My mom never showed her fear, but I could feel it. She was worried for my safety. "Caleb. Take her now!" Caleb grabbed me and ran. He ran as fast as he could back to the pack house. The last thing I heard is my mom yelling I love you to me and how she is proud of me. I didn't understand. I heard terrible screams as the wolves in our pack sped past us.

Amara's pov:
"Wake up!" someone was shaking me. "Princess, you're having a bad dream. It's okay. You're okay. Please wake up." I slowly opened my eyes to see Caleb staring down at me. I realized I was covered in sweat. "Was it the same dream?" I shook my head as I buried myself into his embrace. We have known each other our whole lives. He was everything to me. "Well it's time to get ready. You're going to be late for school and Alpha would not be pleased." I rolled my eyes and shoved him off my bed, "whatever dude, get out of my room so I can get ready".

"Remember you have training after school." How could I forget when I had training literally everyday. I threw my pillow at him and shooed him away I really didn't want to get out of bed. I was so tired from not sleeping. I haven't had that dream in a while. Maybe it's because her anniversary is coming up. It was tomorrow... and so was my sixteenth birthday. Yay me.

After twenty minutes of staring at the ceiling, I jumped into the shower. It never really took me long to get ready. I decided on a short, summer dress with white sneakers today. Black, with pink and purple flowers spread over it. I walked down stairs, and was greater with a few members from the pack.

"Amara! You look so cute today!" Jess came running into my arms, screaming. Jess was my best friend. Her and I also grew up together, but we are the same age and our birthdays are only a month apart. "So I don't look cute all the time?" everyone in the kitchen stared, silently, with open mouths. " Yes, that's what I'm saying!" we both busted out laughing. I didn't have time for breakfast so we headed out to Jess' car to go to school.

"What took you so long this morning? You missed breakfast again." I didn't really want to answer her question. I hated having these dreams. I hated complaining about the guilt I carried. I know there wasn't anything I could have done, but if only I listened and didn't run out of our territory. I guess I was silent too long because Jess nudged me and said " Hey. It's okay. I'll be with you and so will Caleb. I know it's her anniversary and your birthday. We can celebrate her life and yours. It's what Luna would have wanted". I love Jess. She knew just what to say.

We drove the rest of the way in a comfortable silence. We only lived about twenty minutes away from school, but our actual pack house was hidden deep in the woods. I rolled the window down and let the wind blow through my hair. Something about today was telling me to already go back home.

"What's the chance we can miss this turn and keep driving straight?" I mumble to Jess. "You know I will. I would follow you anywhere, Amara." With a slight sigh, I laughed and gestured towards the school.

Well here goes nothing.
