The rain fell down across my clammy skin, making my breaths come just a little easier. The forest around me was quiet from its usual critters, all hiding in their homes from the downpour. I could feel the weight on my chest lessen with each inhale of the earthy forest surrounding me, calming my inner termoil.
After learning that Alpha Xander was my mate, I rushed out of the packhouse, telling the other omegas I wasn’t feeling well, and ran directly outside. I had felt the familiar panic coming over me, the air in my lungs getting thinner with each second spent inside knowing the mate I wasn't ready for was just a room away.
Goddess, why me?
“I’m sorry,” apologized Weather for the millionth time. “I shouldn’t have sprung that on you like that.”
“It’s fine Weather. I would have found out eventually.”
I normally would console my wolf better, but I just didn’t have it in me right now. I never imagined I would meet him yet considering my current position and standings, but apparently the Goddess had other plans for me. What those plans were, I didn't have the smallest idea of what to expect. The only good thing that came out of this was that he hadn’t recognized me as his mate.
My life was one giant storm of a mess, but the longer I sat in the rain, the more clear my thoughts became. I was able to really think about my life and where it was taking me.
I was an eighteen year old shifter princess hiding away in a random pack, pretending to be nothing more than a wolf less omega.
