Sean told me it wouldn't be formal but I'm still going to dress up a bit. I'll still have my regular look, which is jeans, but I put on a Maroon colored crop top that goes around my lower neck and exposes my shoulders. I wouldn't be able to wear this top at school because it shows " too much skin ". Maybe I'd get the stomach part but they act like shoulders are such a big deal. Just keep your hormones to yourself and all will be well.

I also wore some cute black flats Maddie let me borrow. She said she's going to go shopping after the meeting for me so she wouldn't miss it, plus it's mandatory. Everyone's going to be there.. and so I've heard, no one knows why. I'll be a surprise!

I look in the mirror one last time and I'm satisfied with how great I look today. I took a shower yesterday and braided my hair so when I took my hair out, it was nice and curly. Everyone asks if my hair color is natural and also if my curls are natural. I always reply yes and they complement me.

That's one of the things I've always admired about myself, my hair. Sometimes it's all frizzy and blah but then if it gets to frizzy, I wash it, it always helps. Then there's my eyes, light blue that had the ability to look grey if I was sad, and green when really happy.

I go downstairs and see everyone's eyes on me. Wow, that was fast. Some people just stare while others whisper into people's ears. Now I'm really nervous.. Sean's Mom is supposed to be here too.

Madison comes down the stairs behind me and puts her hand on my shoulder, sensing my discomfort. I turn my head to her and smile and try to find Sean. I feel more comfortable when I find him in the living room talking to someone I don't know. Well, I don't know almost anyone here.

I walk up to him and put my arm around his hugging close to him. He probably senses my discomfort too so he kisses me on the forehead, " Hey Mom, I want you to meet my mate, Jessica. " OHHH this is his mom... oh shit. Not ready, abort mission!

" Hello Mrs. Knight, nice to meet you. " I say and hold out my hand for her.

She smiles sweetly and shakes my hand, " Don't be so formal, call me Caroline. "

I smile back and she pulls me into a hug, " I've been dreaming of the day I could meet my sons mate! I just didn't know she'd be so beautiful. "

I blush and smile embarrassed, " Thank you. "

She lets go and she sees me blushing, " Don't be so surprised I said that! Boys must be lining at your door. "

" They better not be, I'll shut them up real quick. " Sean says in mostly a growl.

" Yeah yeah calm down Mr. Alpha. " she pats his shoulder playfully and walks into the kitchen.

" Well I like your mom. " I laugh hugging Sean, leaning my head against his chest.

" I knew you would, I'm just glad she likes you too. " he rests his chin on my head and kisses my forehead again.

" You guys are making me wanna throw up. " Maddie says walking up to us making a fake gagging noise.

" Shut it. " I say smiling.

" Whatever, Jess wanna get snacks? " she says pointing towards the kitchen.

" I'm not really that hungry. " I tell her still hugging Sean.

" We have Cotton Candy Icecream. " she says crossing her arms and smirking.

She knows my weakness.

" Welp time for me to go into the kitchen! See ya wolfy. " I pat Sean's chest and let him go walking towards the kitchen. I'm halfway there until I feel tingles on my arm pulling me back.

" By the way, I'm the only one that should see that much skin showing my love. " he whispers in my ear lightly caressing the exposed skin on my stomach. I gasp and slap his arm, then walk into the kitchen.

Once I'm in the kitchen I get a bowl of cotton candy Icecream and start stuffing in into my mouth. I'm trying not to eat too much cause that'll make my stomach ache, and I don't want to do that, especially not when a meetings about to happen.

After a few minutes of me talking to random people that Madison introduces me to, I hear the voice of my mate calling everyone into the living room. I finished my Icecream so I threw away my plastic bowl and run into the living room.

I sit down on the couch next to Madison as the big and bad Alpha speaks to the pack, " Hello everyone, you know I only call meetings for special occasions. This one will forever burn in my memory as it is the day you will meet your future Luna. "

Everyone in the room starts gasping and looking at each other in shock as they took in the news. I felt suddenly nervous knowing I'll have to go up in front of everyone but at least Sean will be at my side.

" It'd be a pleasure to introduce my mate, Jessica Meadows. " he gestures for me to come up with him and I get up from my comfy spot off of the couch and walk over to him. I felt everyone's eyes on me as I stood next to Sean, Sean helped me feel better by holding my hand.

Everyone cheers, happy that they have finally met who will be their future Luna. I'm doubtful on how good of a leader I'll be to them, but Sean can show me how and if it was meant to be, how hard can it be?

Sean smiles at me and I smile back, " She is a human, but I'm positive with my help she can be an excellent Luna to you. "

Everyone cheers again making all of my doubts go away, they actually like me. I thought they'd be doubtful on having a human Luna, but they're not.

I feel like I see a familiar face in the crowd but I shrug it off, I don't know any werewolves that I'm aware of.

Sean pulls me from behind into himself and I turn around and wrap my arms around him in a hug, " I was doubtful they'd accept me. "

I lift my head off of his chest to see his expression, which was confused. " Why would you think they wouldn't accept you? "

" I'm a human.." I look down at the floor, embarrassed.

He lifts my head up to make me look at him and I look into his eyes, " You'll make an excellent Luna, Jess. They also have no reason to doubt you, they don't know you yet. But that'll change. " he smiles down at me in reassurance and I smile back. He leans his face down to mine for a kiss and...

" Jessica...? "

I froze, I look towards the voice that was ruining me and Sean's moment. It was familiar..

My eyes lock on a pair that looks just like my own.

" Aunt Grace? " I look at her in horror remembering the night that my uncle tried to kill me. My legs began to feel weak and my head felt faint as the emotions from that night ran inside my brain. Sean held me up and let out a blood curdling growl towards my aunt.

My aunts eyes held confusion but most importantly, fear.

" If you are who I think you are you better start running because I'm going to rip you piece by piece until there is no more of you. No need for guards. " he stared at her with determination in his eyes but also pure anger.

" Sean please calm down, we don't know if she was even like my Uncle was. " I put a hand on Sean's shoulder and I see him visibly relax. He glares one more time at my aunt and wraps his arms around me protectively. Everyone's now looking at us.

I kiss his cheek and whisper, " I got this okay? " he nods, letting me go, " But if she makes one move I'll kill her right then and there. " he speaks in a low voice so even the others can't hear him. I nod and face my aunt.

" We have a lot to talk about. " I face her and she nods. She takes my hand avoiding the snarl that rips through Sean's lips as she leads me upstairs.

I lead her to my room, or me and Sean's room, and pat down on the bed next to me so she can sit down. She sits down and takes both of my hands in hers, " I never expected this would be the way we meet again. " she softly chuckles.

" Me neither, but you've missed a lot. " I look down at the floor remembering that night.

" Are you a werewolf too? " I look up and ask her. Her face becomes bright and she nods. " I didn't tell you a long time ago because we aren't supposed to tell anyone our secret. I didn't even tell your uncle I was one until the day he left me. "

" Wait so this doesn't make any sense, was he your mate? Why didn't he feel the mate bond then? " My head is full of questions and she has the answers I need from her, because she knows a lot more then she lets on.

Her face suddenly loses its brightness and tears fill her eyes, " He wasn't my mate... my mate was killed by rogues. It's time for you to know everything dear. "

I nod my head and let her speak. I can't believe I'm figuring a lot out today, and I'll finally get some closure. But, I'm sad for my aunt. Sean has told me about what losing a mate must feel like. Sure, he hasn't lost his, but he's been told by others who have experienced it. It's really painful and you never get over the loss.

" When I was 18, a little older than you, I found my mate. He was the most loving person you could've ever met. He treated me perfectly and of course he had his flaws but he was still perfect in my eyes. One day rogues attacked our pack and we hadn't known what was going to happen so we were unprepared. Woman and children went to the safehouse and the guards, men, and Alpha went to fight off the rogues. Three people lost their lives that day. The Alpha, this woman who didn't make it to the safehouse, and my mate. About a few years later I had accepted the fact I probably wasn't going to have a second chance mate so I married your uncle. For some reason your mom didn't have the wolf gene and you didn't become a werewolf either. "

" What was your mates name? " I ask, silently hoping it wouldn't make her upset to talk about him more.

" Jared. " she smiles and her face lights up a little from the memory of him.

" Awww I'm so sorry... I just don't get how I'm not a wolf. " I look down at my hands.

" Me either, but when Jared died I abandoned the pack and went off on my own. Not a rouge, I still came back once and a while, the pack understood my actions. Once I told your uncle about me being a werewolf he became frightened of me and he became really angry. I had to get away and join my pack again. So I'm here. " she smiles slightly trying to brighten the mood.

" You don't know do you? " I ask quietly remembering I have to tell her my uncle died...

" Know what? " she asks with concern written on her face, seeing my mood change.

" Uncle Kenny is dead... " I look off into the window not wanting to see her reaction. I didn't want to tell her another person she loved died of murder but I had to, she had to know the truth.

" Figures. " she rolled her eyes like it was nothing new.

" Did you know, what's with that reaction? " I looked away from the window and at her face trying to read it. But it had no expression.

" He was crazy Jessica, don't think I didn't know that. I thought he had moved past his ways and became a better person, but the night I told him about me, he lost it. I couldn't deal with him anymore so I left. "

Anger bubbled inside of me and I couldn't help raising my voice at her, " You knew he was crazy and left him but you didn't take me with you?! Do you know how much pain he caused me?! " I yelled. She could've warned me. She left me there for myself, to defend myself not knowing what was going on. I was stuck in that house afraid of my own uncle because of her. Even though it wasn't her fault, it was most definitely her fault that everything happened the way they did.

" I know, and I'm sorry sweetie, I shouldn't have-... " I cut her off, " No! You don't get to say your sorry, if you really cared you would've taken me with you the second you knew he was a threat. " I yelled with fury dripping from my voice. But all that anger disappeared suddenly and I felt betrayed. I started sobbing right after I said that and stood up quickly making me dizzy.

Sean came rushing in the room and caught me right as I was about to fall, " Hey baby, it's okay breathe baby please. " he wrapped his arms around me and I wrapped my arms around his neck in need of him. I cried into his chest and quietly apologizing that I had ruined his shirt. My aunt left the room while he was trying to comfort me and that made me even more upset, she didn't care I was crying.

" S-She knew about my uncle being crazy a-and left me with him. " I sobbed into his chest trying to pull him impossibly closer.

" I know, I heard the entire conversation but I wanted to give you you're privacy. As soon as I heard everything I came upstairs wanting to rip her apart. Everything changed when I saw you in here, you needed me, and I needed to comfort my mate. " he started rubbing my back soothingly and kissed my cheek.

" I'm sorry I ruined today. " I choked out, trying to wipe my tears, but he beat me to it. His hand glided over my face leaving me feeling tingles, I smiled and leaned into his touch. I love how he affects me.

" No Princess it wasn't your fault, it was hers and trust me she won't get away with this. " he lightly growled mentioning my aunt. I leaned my forehead on his looking him into his beautiful eyes.

" Hey Sean? " I whispered.

" Yes baby? " his breath fanned my face and our eyes connected.

" I love you. " the words came out of my mouth as I thought it in my head. I spoke from my heart, I know I love him. It's time to tell him.

" I've loved you since I met you babygirl. " I shivered at his choice of nickname and slammed my lips onto his. He immediately responded as his lips moved against mine roughly. He licked the bottom of my lip for entrance and I obliged as I sat on his lap, moving impossibly closer to him.

His arms moved to my back and I felt a million sparks move throughout my body as we kissed. Butterflies in my stomach fluttered everywhere and I ended the kiss to breathe. I was panting a little and he looked almost out of breath too.

" Now that was-... " a shout from the living room caught our attention. I looked at Sean confused and he took my hand as we moved downstairs.

" Jessica?! I know your here! " Yells a voice I haven't heard in a long time.

" No... it can't be. " I whisper but Sean hears me, now it's his turn to me confused.

I let go of his hand and run to where the voice was, the living room.

My mouth hung open as my eyes saw who called my name.

" Kylie? " Were my eyes playing tricks on me?
