Chapter 0012
“Not sure why I have to wait till I’m 18. I’m smarter than everyone.” I said stubbornly.
Colt smiled at me. “Although I agree with you, we made a deal.”
“Whatever.”
“Besides, dad asked what we wanted to do for our 18th birthday. I think he wants to have a massive party.” Colt folded his arms.
“Do I have to go to it?” It sounded like a terrible idea.
“You do and you have to wear a dress.”
“Not much of a birthday party for me, then.”
“What do you want to do for your birthday?” Alec asked.
“Hmm.” I had to think about it. “Maybe go on a hike up a mountain or lay on the beach or even a pool. Something small and
intimate.”
“Why not tell your dad that is what you want?” Alec asked.
“It is expected we find our mate as soon as we turn 18. To start a full training on whatever job we are doing. In Colts case, they
need to train a Luna.” I frowned.
“I think dad expects you to be mated to Ace so your are a beta female.” Colt frowned.
“Which is a step down plus I already do more work the An n does in a year.”
“A big party increases our chances of finding a mate.” Colt continued.
“What will a mate do for me? Even if it was Ace, that just means I am stuck here for the rest of my life.”
“But once I take over, no one will ever lay a hand on you again.” Colt promised.
“Sorry, I guess this is family drama you don’t care about. Poor alpha female whining about being disciplined.”
“Every pack has family drama. I’m not going to tell anyone yours.” Alec promised.
“Have you found your mate?” Colt asked Alec.
“Nope. Not in a hurry.” Alec shrugged.
“That’s right. The chick that attacked Kris is your girl.” Colt got annoyed,
“Was, after the disrespect she showed in the pizza parlor, I dumped her.” He acted like it was no big deal.
“I’m hungry and tired. You boys can stay here and talk but I want food.”
“! promised Kara I would take her out. I just wanted to come here and check on you.” Colt frowned.
“Enjoy your date. I’ll grab my car and get something.”
Colt looked at his watch. “I have time to run you home…”
“I got it dude. I had already planned on it.” Alec spoke up.
“Alright.” Colt looked at me. “Text me when you get home.”
“Yes, sir.” Rolling my eyes, I said it extremely sarcastic. Colt smiled, k*ssed my forehead and walked out.
“When you are ready, we can go.” Alec looked at his watch too.
“If I’m keeping you, I can walk.”
“Nope, I’m good.”
After finishing a few entries, I was ready to go. “Ready.”
“Good, let’s go.” Alec all but pushed me out the door. I guess he was in a hurry too.
“What’s the rush? I thought you didn’t have plans?”
“I just made some.” Alec smiled as he started the engine.
Rolling the window down, I let the wind flow in my face as he raced down the road. It wasn’t until he
missed the turn that I looked at him. “Um, you missed the turn!”
“No I didn’t.”
“Yes.. You did. You can’t go to my pack house this way.”
“We aren’t going to your pack house.”
“But your plans…?” I was so confused.
“My plans are with you.”
“With me? Why?”
“Do you have a curfew?” Alec smirked at me.
“Well, no.”
“What’s wrong? Do I make you nervous?”
“S hit, no you don’t.” Deciding I wasn’t going to get answers, I turned my attention back to the window. The wind was warm as it
hit my face. The starts were shinning brightly, illuminating the world around me. It really was a perfect night. 2
When Alex turned, I realized his plans. “Really?” I sounded way too excited for this.
“Never come here?”
