Chapter 6

• Carla's POV
• The car took off and drove into the street. I watched the movement going on outside through the car window. Most of them look happy and free. I want to be like them. Maybe after getting out of that hell, I will be like them, free and independent.
• But what of my mate or mates as I had seen in that dream? If I found one in real life after exhausting my period of servitude here, I would have started a new phase in my life. What if they loved me? What if they didn't love me? Let me just believe in what I saw or pretend to believe in it because of the impact it has had on me after that encounter. It didn't seem real after I witnessed it but it left a real-time effect.
• Since that moment, there has been this connection between me and those evil monsters at the pack estate, hate is only one of the feelings we have for each other but I can't deny the attraction, the way they have begun looking at me each time we met. I hit my head several times.
• "Let me not live in fantasy, these people are clear haters. I see no way they will become my mates! Besides they are beasts, the only thing hiding this from the world is their charmingly handsome looks." I say to myself, wiping the thoughts off and denying it never happened.
• They are the ideal mates every girl would love to have, they have the physique, the charm and the grace and they are set to be Alphas, to take up the administration of the pack from their father. Aside from all these, their character can't be related. Anyone below their rank, most especially when not of Beta and Gamma stock are trash, while Nessian is cold and has no compassion, Sebastian is arrogant, flirty with girls and foul-mouthed.
• I haven't fancied them as mates before, I didn't even before now fancy two persons as my mates but just one as occurring in most cases. With my fragile nature, I'm not sure, I'd be able to handle two men at least before having to choose one to spend the rest of your life with as the law of the Phoenix detects.
• Then I remembered I was in the car with the Luna and we were heading to the boutique. My thoughts drove me pretty faraway. "So, are you going back to your Aunt?" The Luna asked after a long silence. I just wished she hadn't said or asked anything before now, while I was lost in thoughts.
• "No Luna. I will move out and stay on my own if I don't find a mate soon". I replied. I was giving myself an alternative plan as not all werewolves do find their mates on their eighteenth birthday, some actually found on or before their twenty-first birthday but I didn't pray to fall under this category of those who found their mate late. My aunt has never visited me since she dropped me, that's eight years ago. And I don't know where she is. Why will I go back to someone who made it clear that she doesn't want me?
• "It's not easy out there but I wish you luck." She said.
• "Thanks Luna." I bowed slightly and averted my gaze back to the window. The car drove into the biggest boutique in town. I helped her carry her bag as I followed her behind.
• "Wow!" I exclaimed as I looked all over the place. The dresses there were fashionable and expensive.
• "Good afternoon Luna." One of the attendants rushed to pay her respect entitled to her position. The rest greeted bowing from where they stood.
• "I want to get a special dress for my maid alongside other stuff. Can you show me the way?"
• "Sure, right away Luna." The attendant said, collected her handbag from me and led us towards tons of dresses on the wardrobes.
• "You can pick the ones you like and try it out." She said.
• I picked out so many dresses and tried it out. At the end, we settled on a long floral pink dress which was sexy and expensive. It was what I was planning to wear to my birthday party. I needed to look attractive on the first day I'd be meeting with my mate. We moved ahead to buy several other dresses, of good quality but not as expensive as this one. Then shoes came next, Georgia bought shoes for me I've never worn before. I felt like a princess, bags, purses and jewelries, perfumes and roll-ons were included. She also bought a large and expensive pink rolling box I would use in packing my things out of the estate.
• I thanked her profusely after we were done. I couldn't thank her enough, she had done so much. I also thanked the attendant who assisted us in getting what we needed. Carrying the stuff by myself in the four designer bags, I headed outside with her, my heart full of delight.
• We arrived at the estate after some minutes. I rushed over to my room to try out the dress while checking myself in the mirror in front of me. I look great! I recall the luna complimenting that I have a sexy, flawless body at the boutique while I was testing the clothes abs shoes on. This boosted my confidence to a greater height. The staff there appreciate my body too.
• Luna Georgia told me that they were going to host a party for my birthday. All these just because I am going. They never appreciated me when I was here and now, when I am about to go, they are showering me with gifts. Well, I will enjoy it while it lasts.

• Sebastian and Nessian were pissed that their parents were spending on Carla who was leaving soon. Were they going to miss her? Why are they acting like they were? They hate it that they are acting like she is an important person.
