Chapter 2: First Encounter
Chapter 2: First Encounter
I was staring at my phone beside a mall's escalator when I heard a loud thud more like someone landing beside me. My phone slip out of my hold landing on the floor.
"I'm sorry"
He apologize and I help him up to his feet. The kid was barely a man himself he was like a skeleton with his big glasses and he was shaking badly. I really do feel bad about him, 'those kids are surely bully.'
"Hey are you okay?" he adjusted his glasses nodding his head yes and run away immediately.
I pick up my phone from the ground shoving it inside my skinny Jean left pocket taking a step on the escalator.
Looking up I met with those green eyes, thanks to my werewolf vision. Oh not forgetting his jet black hair and his face perfectly carved. Disappointedly he wasn't interested in me as he rather turn his attention to the model beside him after meeting my gaze.
I didn't know I was staring when I saw one of his friend whisper in his ear and someone tackling me from behind the back. I turn to hiss at the person but my friend Gia grins at me.
"You're lucky and I swear if you ever do that while we're on this shit I'll skrill you" I refer to the escalator and her.
She laughs at me "sorry bae but you can't do that."
"OMG" she suddenly straighten her stand "what's gotten in to you" "shhhh" she hushed me up.
"The future alpha is coming down opposite our way" her voice you could barely hear and she tighten her grip gritting her teeth at me.
The thing is I never met our Alpha or luna, even his children in person. So this would be my first time meeting one of them. My whole life cycle was going to school and back home. My parents never force me to join any pack activities or meet with other people.
"Show some respect when he near us"
Gia put on a smile as I sigh biting my bottom lip. Pretending to look away while tapping my hands on the rail wishing for this thing to go up faster any sooner.
"Matteo" Gia smile widely at the green eyes demi god almost breaking my arm with her hold.
I gaze in their way to see one of his friends smirking at me and those pair of green eyes settled on mine this time. He looks contemplating as if he wanted to say something to me instead he just stare back at me.
Anyone would basket in that moment swooning over him and fanning over his looks. Me internally wanting to run my fingers along that jaw line. Yet I ruin the moment for the both of us, more like for me alone when I held his stare. Then tardily I turn away from him with a glare. I make sure that his presence doesn't faze me but really my body is sluggishly melting to the ground.
They pass us and I heard his friends howling some of them whistles aloud that everyone eyes turn to their direction. How do I know this, well basically everyone from the top were looking down at their way not us.
I took one last peek back down to their way but only to be met with his wink and damn those dimples when he smirk at me. I quickly turn back to the front.
"How dare!" my friend smack me on the head brushing off my now heated pinkish cheeks.
"What the hell?" she stomps her foot when we reach the stairs.
"You're lucky he didn't mind us" I roll my eyes pushing my way towards the stores for a dress to wear to our family dinner as I'm turning 18 tomorrow.
Also I just can't wait for my wolf Alera to be mature and receive her full werewolf senses. I may have shifted at the age 16 which is rare but I can't sense our mate or even have a strong connection with my wolf, everything else is good.
Gia keeps on whining while fanning herself "you should seen him and his friends when they have no shirt on" my mind screaming at Gia's fantasy.
"Gross G, stop being a perv" another voice chirp in coming from behind us.
"Cora, finally please knock some sense in her."
Cora and Gia are my only best friends. The only two people I am close to, Gia is a daughter of our Delta Mr. Cavrillo and Cora well she's from another pack. Her brother the Alpha of Crimson Pack send her to Boulevard High, that's where we all met and now we're in our senior year.
An all girls school and the only school for girls run by the damn Council. We're known as the Moon Stone pack, fourth in the werewolves race when it comes to ranking. Cora is staying with us but constantly visit her brother during summer and school breaks.
"I swear our future Alpha is a hunk I don't care who his Mate is but I will make sure to bang him" she keeps on whining.
"If only there are boys in our school and he's a head boy. Damn! And if only he's in our age but who cares he's just 3 years older than us."
Cora squint her brow then unexpectedly shut her up by clamping her hand on Gia's mouth and drag her to another fashion and jewellery store.
"Well dear I hate to burst your bubble but that hunk isn't here and pretty sure won't be buying you a bra and a panty. So stop dreaming" and we all burst out in to laughter.
Cora always knew how to make oblivious come backs.
"Oh Gosh is Jem buying you one"
"every damn day dear and he send it through mail or even better fb. Didn't you check your message" she says with sarcastic and we laugh again.
"You two still keep it on low key" I ask her and she smile. She's two months older to us, Gia is the youngest of us three.
"Yeah don't want Dante to find out about us"
"cheeky"
she playfully pushes me to the other side. We search through every stores in the mall for clothes until we find a perfect dress.
Thinking of tomorrow makes me want to stay seventeen forever and I try to shook it out of my poor thoughts as the girls cheers me up.
It's funny I should be thinking of my mate and my life afterwards but I didn't want to dwell on it. Might as well wait for tomorrow to come and see where it goes.
