Chapter 3

My mother screamed – she actually screamed! I mean I knew I looked horrible, but really that was a bit
dramatic. I rolled my eyes at her as I sat down at the dinner table. I''d woken upte, so my mother
didn''t see me before school, so it wasn''t until we sat down for dinner – a few hours after the visiting
Alpha had arrived – that she saw the bruise on my face.
"Mabel Elizabeth Thorne. What the hell happened to your face?" she screeched.
"I fell" I shrugged.
"Off that damn skateboard I bet" she growled angrily. I simply shrugged, not wanting to tell her that I''d
actually been beat up. "Alpha Zev and several of his men are in the territory as we speak. We are
supposed to be going around to the Alpha''s house in an hour, for goodness sake Mabel".
"Then just leave me here" I offered.
"I don''t think so. We''ll just try and cover it up with makeup".
"Ew no thanks" I turned my nose up, "I don''t want that orange shit all over my face".
"Mabel" she shook her head, "why can''t you just be a normal sixteen year old for once?"
"Geez thanks, love you too" I muttered in annoyance.
"If you''re not going to let me put makeup on you, please at least wear your hair down" she said. I rolled
my eyes as we began to eat dinner. Everyone talked as we ate but I silently thought of ways to get out
of going to see this other random Alpha. I couldn''t think of any good excuse.
"Right, Mabel, go get changed" my mother said, as we cleared away the tes.
"I''m changed" I replied. Once more I thought my mother was going to pass out. She opened her mouth,
closed her mouth, opened her mouth once more, before turning to my father for help. I hated when they
ganged up on me.
"Darling, just put something a bit neater on. You know what Alphas are like" my father said for her.
"You mean, you know what mothers are like" I grumbled under my breath.

"What was that?" he narrowed his eyes.
"I''ll go change now" I sighed, slipping out the kitchen. Back inside my room, I looked in the mirror and
sighed heavily. I wore a pair of ripped jeans, a white shirt, and some Nike sneakers. My hair was pulled
back and the ugly purple and yellow bruise ran up the left side of my face.
In annoyance, I changed into a pair of ck skinny jeans – the only pair without rips in them – before
pulling on a tight red shirt and my newest leather jacket. I then pulled some different sneakers on.
Frowning at myself in the mirror, I took my hair out of the ponytail. My dark curls fell around my face,
and to my mid-back, looking crazy and unruly. I didn''t dare take a hairbrush to it – it would just make it
look like a lion''s mane. So I grabbed some hair mouse, dabbed a bit on my hand, before running it
through my hair. It calmed it slightly, but it was still just a curly mess but at least it now looked like it was
supposed to be a curly mess.
"Well it ain''t going to get any better than this" I muttered to my reflection. My face was a small love
heart shape, withrge round eyes and small features. Freckles spread over practically every part of
my face – I hated those damn freckles. Even with my dark Latin skin, the freckles still stuck out. I was
cute but in a twelve year old sort of way.
"May hurry the fuck up" Rnd shouted at me.
"Watch yournguage Ro" my father hollered back at him. Rolling my eyes, I turned away from my
reflections and headed out my room. I walked with my family to the Alpha''s house, trailing slightly
behind them as they chatted about something. "Mabel, keep up" my father snapped.

When we reached the Alpha''s house, Alpha Parker invited my parents into his office where he was
having a drink with Alpha Zev and his Beta. "Darling, why don''t you go hang out with David" my mother
suggested. I rolled my eyes, hating that she was still trying to convince herself that I was going to be
David''s mate.
They disappeared into the study and I rolled my eyes when I was left alone. "Hey Mabel" David said, as
he came down the stairs.
"My name is May" I corrected him. He nodded before walking into the lounge, I reluctantly followed him.
Inside was three Wolves I didn''t know. David smiled at them as he sat down in the lounge. The three
men were obviously from the Equinox Pack.
"Hey kid is this your girlfriend?" one of them asked, smiling in my direction.
"No" I snorted.
"May is the Beta''s daughter" David exined. "But we''re probably going to be mates. We''ll see when
we Shift" he shrugged.
"Unlikely dick" I muttered under my breath.
"What?" David asked.
"I want a drink" I said allowed, and I saw the three men smirking as they''d actually heard what I said.
"I''m going to get a drink". Turning my back to David and three unknown Wolves, I headed into the
kitchen.
As I stood there in the kitchen, I nced out the window. Outside on the porch stood a man on his
phone. He was beautiful – there was no other words to describe him. He was tall with dark hair and
bright blue eyes. Hisrge arms bulged out of his tight ck t-shirt and his blue jeans hung low on his
lips. He wasrger than most men; with muscles on every part of his body. "Wow" I whispered.
I''d never had a crush before, but I had one right then.
"That''s Seth" a voice behind me said. I screamed in shock as I spun around, turning away from the hot
man, and to one of the unknown Wolves.
"I...um...what?" I asked, blushing as red as a tomato. The Wolf smirked at me in amusement. His ash
coloured hair was pulled back in a small bun at the back of his head, as his golden skin shone. He was
attractive but nothingpared with the guy outside.
"I said that guy you were eye raping is called Seth" he teased. "He''s my Alpha".
"That''s Alpha Zev?" I asked in shock.
"Yep, that''s him" heughed. I nced back out the window, but he was gone. The unknown Wolf
before he opened the fridge and had a look inside. "You want a coke?"
"Sure" I shrugged. He pulled out a second can and handed it to me, before kicking the fridge shut.
"What''s your name?"
"Dean" he smiled, "I''m the third inmand".
"Cool" I muttered.
"You don''t really find that cool do you?" he smirked at me, hearing my sarcasm even though I didn''t
actually say it sarcastically.
"No I don''t really give a shit" I told him bluntly. He spluttered augh at me.
"You got badnguage kid, I dig that" Dean winked at me. I just gave me a look before walking past
him. He followed me back into the lounge, where I sat down next to David. "Right kid, this is Jenson
and Ollie" Dean introduced me to the other Wolves – Jenson a blonde with nice eyes and Ollie a dark
skinned man who was very attractive. Not as attractive as his Alpha, but pretty attractive.
"Guys this is May. She''s a mouthy kid who has a thing for Seth".
"I do not have ''a thing'' for your Alpha" I snapped at Dean, as I blushed and the menughed at me.
"So why else were you staring at him like a stalker?" he mused. I knew he was trying to get a rise out of
me, but I was embarrassed so I rose to the bait.
"Because I saw a strange Wolf in my territory and I was curious who he was" I snapped back – a
tant lie.
"Sure" Deanmented sarcastically.
"Mabel" David began and I rolled my eyes.
"May" I corrected him through gritted teeth. "My name is fucking May". At mynguage, Jenson and
Ollie raised their eyebrows in shock – Dean justughed in amusement.
"Well it''s not" David retorted, "your name is Mabel, you just like to go by May".
"David, shut up" I rolled my eyes at him. I didn''t understand why the fourteen year old future Alpha
annoyed me so much, but there was just something about him.
"Mabel" a familiar voice boomed. "I will not tolerate thatnguage" my father snapped. With my back to
him I rolled my eyes, before turning back and smiling softly at him.
"Sorry Dad" I simply said. I stood up, as everyone else in the room did, when I noticed that my parents
hade in with everyone else. Among the other people were two more unknown Wolves – well one
of them was known to me because I had seen him outside.
Alpha Seth Zev was even better in person; with both strength and dominance. His bright blue eyes
looked over the room before theynded on me. I blushed slightly as he caught me staring at him. But
he didn''t instantly look away, instead he looked me up and down – checking me out I realised.
Alpha Parker opened his mouth to say something but Alpha Zev interrupted him. A growl ripped
through the room as he looked at me. "Mate" he snapped, and everyone in the room gasped in shock.
