CHAPTER 2

Susie's POV

"Remember the red wolf story?" say's my mother with a nervous voice as she plays with her fingers in her lap, she seems a bit more nervous then she was when I hugged her downstairs.

I smile at her knowing of that story, "everyone knows of that story, we all heard it at school when we were pups mom." I tell her with a small snicker, Samie sighs and rolls her eyes like I'm missing the point of something, 'what' I mouth at her surprised she is actually reacting like that what gives.

Samie looks up and shakes her head, I roll my eyes at her "If you know it mind telling me, kinda wanna know your version, pleeeease?" Samie tells me with a big sarcastic grin and holding her hands together like a drama girl, mom giggles at her response with drama and shakes her head.

I close my eyes and take a breather "Okay? Well there once was a wolf, a big red colored wolf, who did no harm to anyone, he met different creatures, lived in different places, but he liked being with humans more than any other, one day he became friends with the humans, he even fell in love with one, turns out she was his fated mate." I say, remembering when my mom used to make the voices for the creatures, like the goblin, the vampire and I think an elf too, made me giggle.

I breath a bit more feeling my head hurt a little "one day his mate had a baby, after the baby was born, his mate got sick and he prayed to The Moon Goddess so she can heal her, The Moon Goddess saw how much he loved her, how good he was to all the creatures, so she blessed him with the power to heal any wound she had, when he was blessed he was turned into a big red wold."

I reenacted my mom's version because it was the only one that got stuck "but it came with a price." I stopped for a moment because my cell vibrated. I was going to get it but my mom put her hand to have my cell, I sigh heavily and I passed it to her, after I sat back down, I continued.

"Each time he would heal her, a year of his life was taken away, so he could only use it when it was really necessary. Before he died The Moon Goddess said that his gift of healing others would be passed on to all his children, every last one of them. The end." I say as I put my hands on the sides like taking a bow, remembering how my mom used to tell it, I felt kinda silly saying an old kids story.

We laugh a little at my drama, but it's the story every child knows apart from the hunters and other creatures, why was she getting me to think about that when all I want is to meet my wolf and mate, guess it was sorta cute to get my head out of the nerves, or am I missing something here, my mom puts my cell down the small coffee table in between us.

I pick it up as she goes on to talk, "Sue, when tonight you get your wolf, please don't run with the pack, as a mother and Luna I ask you don't, I know my pack is very far from here but I need to make sure you and Samie are well with your first shift, hopefully you get your wolf tonight honey, if you don't it's okay. We can always wait for the full moon or just live as it is."

All this she says with a trembling voice, but what has me really nervous is my mom doesn't look at me and I feel a pang of fear. Does she know something I don't? Won't Samie also go thru this, I need Mykel, I start to reply to Mykel, when my mom stands up.

So I stop typing the text I was just about to send, "Mom what do you mean if I don't get my wolf? Of course I am going to get my wolf, why are you asking me about a kids story and then saying I won't have a wolf, is this some kind of mean joke?" she doesn't answer me instead my cell starts vibrating and I see Mykel is calling me.

I pick it up to talk to him but my mom tries to stop me instead. I look at her confused and a bit angry, wondering what she was hiding from me on my birthday. And I was really annoyed at how Samie is just there like nothing is bothering her, seriously.

"Hello? Baby are you there? I was getting worried that you took off without telling me anything, do you need me for something? Sue?" he sounds a bit worried that I never replied to him, guess he missed me a lot.

I smile at how worried he is for me, "Hi, no I haven't left just having some girl time with mom, how did things go?'' I look at how my mom sighs heavily, she is worried for me too but with what? After this small story telling and telling me what not to do. I give it no real importance, I go and hug her with my cell still in my ear.

I hear him breathing a bit faster,"Lame wants me to help him build some wall and stuff, but I have my own pack to take care of, he is just being a brat, hopefully after today I do not have to come back here. I don't mind saying hi to your dad or Kia you know it's just…. Ugh it's" He says with one big irritated groan, mom and me giggle.

I let go of her so she can go in her room as Sam follows her, "yup on the lame part, I totally agree, he needs to get his s**t together, listen baby would you mind if I stay with mom and Sam? They want to hang out with me and get ready together, meet me at 7:30?" bit my lips hoping he is okay with it, Mykel is a little possessive with me and I like it but he can get pretty scary sometimes.

He breathed a bit heavy, "I will pass by with your dress, shoes and get the makeup bag from your dad's with some fast food, sounds good? Get Kia to take the stuff when I drop them up front or I will drop them myself.", I smiled at his reply. I hope he does drop by so I can see you for a small bit, please?" I cross my fingers, "Sure see you soon Sue."

He hung up like nothing, no good bye babe, no I can't wait to see you. Maybe I asked too much of him today, I will make it up to him later, my mom walks back looking at my cell, she looks at me worried after I spoke to him like he owns me, it makes him happy to hear I belong to him. I like it, sorta, I hang up and Sam hugs me.

Over her shoulders she asks "Mom, why are we not allowed to run with Alpha Jaime's pack? I mean aren't we going to get in trouble if we do that?" Samie asks my unspoken question. But my mom just hugs us both tight.

"Samie, our pack has other rules that help us more than they help the ones of this pack. I have my reasons, just do as I ask and nothing bad will happen, okay Sue and Sam?" are her words, they get me more confused, it's like she has to hide whatever she really wants to say, we both nod, someone knocks on the door, when I open it I get a flying Kia on me with two more omegas that are bringing my moms bag and dinner.

"I can't wait to find my mate tonight! Aren't you excited!" she says jumping up and down like a little bunny, making me giggle at her cute jumps.

"Yea, I am dying to find my hunk, do you have any idea who it might be for you Kia? I hear the Beta has no mate yet, what if it's you?" I say as I help the other Omegas set the food, for her to leave, once the omega leaves the door is stopped by someone's foot.
