Graduation

After graduating from high school, I moved into the pack house. I would have moved into the pack house before graduation, but we thought it would just be better to do it after graduation. That way it would be an easy transition from my parents, I only had a few months left until graduation anyway. The school learned that I had been mated to the next Alpha of the Black Moon Pack, Jackson Thorne. I can say that numerous girls were disappointed that they were not mated to him. Especially, Samantha Clark has always had her eye on him ever since he came back from the Army.

Luck would have it though that I was mated to him, thank you, moon goddess Selene. Of course, not to say that I didn't get glares from Samantha. Knowing that she wasn't mated to him made her furious. What do I care though he is mine and after graduation tonight I will be moved into the pack house, and we will be mated and marked before I start college in the fall?

Graduation came, and it was a wonderful celebration. I couldn't believe that Stephanie and I had made it through four years of high school together. Now we both will be going to college together, who would have thought? In two more years, my brother Steve will be graduating from college, then he will be the financial advisor to the Black Moon Pack. He can't wait either to provide his opinions on the pack's financial status.

There was a small graduation party at my parent's house. Then after that, I would be moving into the pack house. I've only seen the outside and the dining area where the party was for the full moon shift. Now, I'm going to get a good look at the rest of the house once I am there.

The party was in full swing, everyone danced and having a good time. I'm standing here talking to Stephanie about how I wish my Steve were here, my brother, she just smiled and said I know you wish he was here. Suddenly, two hands covered my eyes, but I smelled that familiar scent of Axe body spray that I hate, and my brother wears to torture me.

I turn around and see that it is my brother Steve. I asked him what is he doing here. He tells me that he is here for the summer to intern as a Financial Advisor for Alpha Jackson Thorne Junior. Mom and Dad mention to me that you have been mated to the next Alpha to rule the pack. Yes, I have, and tonight I'm moving into the pack house.

That is good to know because you will make an excellent Luna. Oh, I'm not going to be Luna full-time because I had already informed Jackson that I planned on going to college whether he loved it or not. Not going to put my plans on hold for some mate bond.

Oh my goodness, where are my manners? I completely forgot to introduce you to my friend. Steve, this is my friend, Stephanie. Steve takes one whiff of my friend and says mate. Mate Stephanie says I'm looking at both of them. This is wonderful, my best friend and my brother are mates. How is Mom going to react to that once she finds out? That dad's former girlfriend's daughter is mated to my brother.

Oh, boy, this will not be good for either of them. Then again, who are we to get in the way of the mate bond? While I was standing there daydreaming, these two were practically sucking faces. My goodness, if you two are going to do that, shouldn't you be doing that in private? Sorry, but we're mates, and it is in our nature to do this.

Well, can you and your nature go somewhere else? You know that you will be doing this soon enough with your mate. How do you know that I have a mate? Mother told me that you were mated to the next Alpha to the throne, Alpha Jackson Thorne. Yes, the moon goddess had mated me to Jackson. The problem is that I want to go to college full-time.

However, he is afraid that the unmated males and human males will want to be with him. Then he suggested that I go to school online. Then I told him it would be hard for me to go to school online, especially if I have projects that are assigned to the class in person. Why not mark and mate with each other? I'm convinced that if the shoe were on the other foot, you would want the same.

Remember while you're away at school that there will be other she-wolves willing and waiting to bed him the minute you leave. Think of what Samantha Clark will do once she learns that you're away for a while. Stephanie reminded me. Oh, that hussy is not getting anywhere near my mate. Then you better mark him, before she decides to get her claws into him.

Even though I know that he would not mess with the mate bond. His parents raised him better than that. That reminds me Stephanie, have you told my brother that you will be joining me at the Art Institute as well? Oh no, I did not mention that since we were in the heat of the moment.

What you're going to be there too? Yes, I will be there with Ivory. How do you feel about that? That is great, she will have someone there to look out for her. So, you don't mind if she will be far away from you? I would mind, yes, but I would also respect the fact that she wants to educate herself more. As long as both of you are here doing your breaks and holidays, I am good to go.

Jackson is heading this way, maybe you can tell him what you told us. Hello, and how is my mate doing after she has finally graduated? I'm doing fine. That is good to hear. Tell me, what were you three in in-depth discussion about? Well, we were talking about Stephanie and me going to college.

Go ahead and tell him what you said about how you don't mind if Stephanie goes to college. No, I don't mind her going to college, as long as both of them were back during their breaks and holidays, Steve replied. I was suggesting that Ivory, take classes online, but then I heard you say, Stephanie, that you would be joining Ivy at the same college in the fall. That is true Alpha Thorne, I will be joining Ivy.

In that case, I will have no problem with you going to college then. Then you can just come home during your breaks and holiday vacations. Jackson, thank you, you're the best. I will make sure that I am home during that time. Oh, you will not be taking an airplane from the airport. I won't be taking an airplane. No, you will be taking the private jet every time you're here.

This way, I get to spend more time with you before you return to your classes. Ooh, just think of it Ivy private jet, and you can join the mile-high club, my wolf Snow said to me. Snow, your horny wolf, will you stop? I can't help it, just looking at that fine specimen. Once we move into the pack house we will be able to mate with him, and you will be good, right? Oh, I most certainly will be good. Then let's just enjoy the rest of the party, I told her.

Later that night, after the party was over, I packed all of my things in the suitcase I had with me. Mom had tears running down her face seeing that I will no longer be here. It will be okay mom, please don't cry. I know, sweetie, but you are my second child and my only girl. What am I going to do without you here around the house? You know, your dad is useless occasionally. I heard that my father as my father wiggles his eyebrows at my mom.

Aww, come on I am still here, can't you two slow it down for a bit? I suppose we could, but once Jackson gets here and takes you away, all bets are off. Your mother and I will have some special time just the two of us. Please, I don't even want to know. There is no need to be embarrassed, my dear daughter. You and Jackson will be doing the mating dance soon enough.

I know that, but it doesn't mean that I have to see my parents do it. Well, if we didn't you and your brother would not be here. Speaking of, where is your brother by the way? What you two didn't see, him and Stephanie sucking face.
