As usual the days blur past I talk to my family about pack stuff and wind my brother Zak up teasing him about his hair and how his mate always pranks him. Zak's mate Chelsea is like family and I love her especially when we prank Zak none stop. He's pissed at first but soon calms down.

I also have to deal with school which isn't pleasant it's obviously a school for werewolves but you still get the nasty bitches who hang onto their playthings before they get bored and move on. It's disgusting they have a mate out there somewhere and they're flaunting their bodies to any male who so much as looks at them. And well, me I'm fine except for the fact I haven't found my mate I just hope he isn't a douche when I do find him...

After school I meet with the pack Warriors and Dan along with some of my more trusted inner circle like Selma she's a high ranked warrior and someone I can confide in when I need to talk. Other than Angelica who is my number one shoulder to cry on. "We should kill every rouge until they're extinct!" A male warrior wolf named Darius growls. Cheers erupt around the room and I slam my hand on the table making everyone flinch and shut up.

"We can't just kill them, unless we have reason". I state and earn a few nods of approval whilst Darius scowls silently stewing his anger. A male wolf about twenty stands whilst clearing his throat. "Yes?" I ask curiously.

"There haven't just been attacks here, Luna our neighbours the abyss pack have also been attacked and are requesting safe passage onto our territory". I mull this over a bit biting my lip. Sighing I run a hand through my burgundy hair before turning to Dan.

We should find out what they want first.

Agreed, I'll contact their beta but they probably only want to help resolve the rouge issue.

I growl at him over the link at the word rouge and he flinches. If I say they can come over here I don't want any fighting between our pack and theirs unless it's training understand?

Yes, luna.

How long until they get here if I grant them safe passage?

Three days tops the alpha's only bringing a small group with him.

Ok, head to their territory line and ask for their beta tell them I've allowed them safe passage into our territory but only temporarily.

I break the link and Dan leaves heading for the abyss pack line. "The abyss pack are coming in three days we need to set everything up I want Warriors guarding the pack line day and night, omegas you help with the welcoming prep". They nod simultaneously before I dismiss the meeting.

Two days later...

One day until the abyss pack arrive and Thomas is hyper, I've told him to calm his shit down and he does although he still teases me. "Are you ok?" He asks me. No! As quick as that thought filled my head it dissipates and I hide how I actually feel.

"Yeah, just anxious about the whole rouge thing it's worrying me and with the abyss pack coming it could draw attention to us." I say frowning.

"Yeah, but you could meet your mate! I've heard alpha Samson is hot!" Angelica says which earns a growl from Thomas. She shrugs him off and continues her rant. "Although I've heard rumours that he's heartless and he's done some bad shit. I heard he's killed an entire rouge family whilst out hunting the youngest in that family was ten". I register that information and soon start regretting my decision to give them passage onto my territory.

"I'm going for a run, I'll see you guys later". I say and abruptly leave my house and shift running into the forest.

(Samson's pov)

I run a hand through my black hair in aggravation and punch a hole in my office wall. Rouges I'll kill them all! My beta Aaron knocks on my door. "Come in". I growl and he enters and looks at my wall then takes in my bleeding knuckles.

"Alpha preparations to head into the ElderWood pack territory are complete." He says I grunt in response.

"I'm going to take a shower, get the omegas in here to clean this shit up!" I growl. He nods in obedience before his eyes gloss over and he mind links the omegas whilst I head to my bathroom to get a nice hot shower. I have to find my mate...

(Lauren's Pov)

I help clean the pack house and surrounding cabins to get my head off the rumours about Samson. The youngest in the rouge family was ten. Angelica's voice rings in my head. No I refuse to believe that he would be so heartless.

I wonder who my mate is...
