The Alphas First Choice

{Ava}

"I remember telling you that you had to wake up early, didn't I?" Mama's cold voice rang in my head and I got out of bed immediately.

"I'm so sorry. I'm coming down now." I apologized and hurriedly slipped out of my pajamas and donned a pair of loose jeans and a t-shirt.

I pulled my hair into a high bun and wiped the drill of my face with a baby wipe.

I raced down the stairs nearly colliding with the workers going up and down the stairs.

"I'm sorry, I'm so sorry." I apologized and continued on my way.

I'm Ava by the way and I'm the youngest daughter of the Woodridge family. My father is the Beta of the Whitemoon pack which makes me the Beta's daughter.

Though that didn't mean I had an easy life and it certainly didn't mean I got his genes. I have twin older brothers and one older sister.

My brothers, Caleb and Callum were pack warriors so they resided at the military base. I hadn't seen them in years but I could always feel them through our family bond and I knew they were safe.

They were the best and they treated me the nicest but I couldn't say the same thing about my older sister. For some reason Alma always despised me.

First it started from mean pranks then it graduated to name calling and rude remarks, now she's just plain evil.

The saddest thing is I actually do love and admire my older sister a lot and I just wish we could have a loving sibling relationship.

My parents are neutral though, when it comes to me I mean. Ever since Alma started dating the Crown Prince Oren, they couldn't see a wrong thing in anything she did.

At first they used to reprimand her when her pranks or meanness went too far but now they just ignored it and looked the other way.

It's funny what a taste of power can do to human beings.

My parents were already second class wolves in the whole pack but they still wanted more honor and power. Both of which Alma could give to them if her relationship with the Prince moved further and developed into mating.

And that brings us to why it's so crazy in my house today.

Today is the day Alma and Prince Oren turn eighteen and get to find out if their love was destined or not. Today they would find out if the moon goddess approved their union and made them mates or if they had different mates.

Alma had been so eager about today she hadn't once bothered me. A small part of me was relieved and happy that she might be leaving the house and finally leaving me alone but another part of me was jealous.

Yes, I said that.

"Ava! Come here and take these dresses to your sister's room." Mama yelled and I rushed to her immediately.

"Yes, mother." I took the clothes and dashed up to Alma's room.

In my hurry I forgot to knock and as I pushed the door open my breath caught at the sight in front of me.

A shirtless Oren was standing in the middle of my sister's room. I stood stunned, staring at his naked chest shamelessly.

He was everything and more. From his handsome face, his amber eyes and pink lips to his large muscular chest and arms to his washboard stomach with perfect abs.
