an arm around Taylor.
“Alright girls, run around the track 4 times, then come back here for some drill exercises, got it!?” Coach Morrison directed the girls towards the track.
“Ready girl?” “You bet” And with that, Natasha and Taylor both ran off like cheetahs, or rather, wolves. They quickly finished the four laps without breaking a sweat. Being werewolves was an advantage. Taylor could smell the werewolf on Natasha.
‘She must be from Leo’s pack’ Taylor thought.
“Hey, Natasha, you’re from Leo’s pack right?”
“Yup! I can’t believe you’re the new luna. You’re gonna be great!” she exclaimed and pulled Taylor into a hug. She liked the bubbly energy that Natasha had. She was sweet and fun. But something in her eyes said she was hiding something painful. Natasha looked at something behind Taylor. Taylor turned around to see Leo and another guy from the football team, Josh. Leo saw her staring, and waved at the two of them. Josh smiled friendly at Taylor but glanced quickly at Natasha before turning his gaze back to Leo. Taylor could feel something off about him. She turned around to find Natasha staring at Josh with-longing-in her eyes? That’s when it clicked. Natasha was Josh’s mate. But why did Josh barely look at her?
“Natasha, is Josh your mate?” spoke Taylor softly. Natasha looked at Taylor briefly before looking down.
“Y-yes, h-he’s my mate, b-but, h-he r-r-rejected me,” she whispered the last part. Taylor looked fumed. Leo had explained to her everything about wolves the day before. She knew everything, including the painfulness of rejection if your mate rejected you. She couldn’t imagine her life without Leo, as weird as it sounded; she needed him just as much as he needed her. Natasha brushed a few tears aside.
“Why doesn’t he want you Nat?” Taylor asked, patting her shoulder comfortably.
“I’m, I’m not that p-popular or b-b-beautiful. He’d r-rather just s-screw a-around with some w-whore t-than be with his mate,” she whispered. Taylor was beyond aggravated. This jerk didn’t deserve some slutty bimbo, much less his caring, beautiful, and sweet mate.
“Nat, I have a plan,” Taylor grinned with a mischievous glint in her eyes. She was going to get Josh to beg on his knees for her after Taylor was through with him.
*********
After the long and exhausting tryouts, the gears in Taylor's head began to spin with ideas on how to get Josh back with Natasha. She grabbed Natasha’s hand and dragged her out of the locker rooms. Matt and Leo stood in the parking lot waiting for the girls.
“Hey guys, can we go to the mall? Me and Nat need some clothes for the party tonight,” Taylor begged.
Both guys looked at each other and groaned. The idea of spending hours in a huge building while the girls ran off to buy more things they had to carry was just too unbearable. Taylor, however, used her puppy dog eyes and Leo just couldn’t say no. Even Matt was trying hard to resist but his cute little sister was too hard to fight with when using the puppy face.
“Ugh, alright. But we’re not carrying your bags!” Matt warned, earning himself a slap on the back of his head. “Ow, come on Tay! That’s not fair!” Taylor grinned.
They pulled up to the mall, which was a 20 minute drive from the small town. Grabbing Natasha’s hand, she pulled her into dozens of stores. They tried on tons of dresses until they both found ones that looked perfect on them. Taylor got a beautiful purple one shoulder dress with silver sequined rhinestones that covered the length of the dress. The right shoulder strap was in a bow. Natasha’s dress was stunning. Her dress was strapless and black with gold/silver sparkly thick sections across it. The dress was a little too short for Natasha’s liking, but she agreed that it did look the best on her compared to the other dresses. They decided to pair Natasha’s dress up with some black and silver peep-toe pumps they bought from the store. Taylor bought some light purple heels to match with her dress. Finally deciding they were done with shopping, they met up with the boys at the food court.
“Hey girls, looks like you bought a lot!” Matt teased, looking at the shopping bags filled with clothing.
“Well, it’s mostly for Natasha. Let’s just say, revenge is sweet,” Taylor smiled, an evil glint in her eye.
“Uh-oh, what are you planning now Taylor?” Leo questioned as he pulled her into his lap.
“Nothing” she giggled. Leo just kissed her forehead, while she continued eating her Ben and Jerry’s ice cream.
She looked up to see Matt staring at something behind her. He seemed lost, a dazed yet love-filled look filled eyes. Leo and Natasha had noticed too, and turned to stare behind. They saw a beautiful girl with long blonde hair and beautiful baby blue eyes. She seemed shy and quiet, but nonetheless, beautiful. Wearing a pair of skinny jeans and a sweatshirt, she looked like a timid girl but Taylor could tell she was beautiful, inside and out. Apparently, Matt thought so as well, as his gaze was still locked on her.

Matt’s POV (new POV!)

He was staring at this gorgeous girl across from the shoe store. She looked different than her friends, who were all sporting shorts and blouses while she wore a simple pair of skinny jeans and a college hoodie. ‘She looks so simple, yet so...breathtakingly beautiful’ Matt thought, grinning.
‘Mate! Mate! My wolf screamed inside of me. She was my mate, and she was gorgeous. From what her hoodie said, I could tell she was a freshman in college. She was only a year younger than I was. She's mine, only mine.’
Matt was finally able to tear his gaze away from his mate. He turned to find an amused looking Leo and Natasha and a confused Taylor.
“What?” He questioned, hoping they didn’t notice the lovesick puppy face he made at her.
“Nothing man, oh and by the way, congrats on your mate!” Leo laughed followed by the two girls who giggled.
“Go talk to her Matt! She smells like werewolf, I think she might be from another pack. She looks nervous too. Other Were’s will consider her a rogue. You better help her or they’ll turn your mate in!” Taylor giggled as Matt’s face turned from lovesick to worried in the span of a few seconds. He wooshed past them and towards the girl.
“H-hi, I’m Matt and you’re my...mate,” he said awkwardly, while brushing the back of his head with his right hand, and tucking his left hand into the pocket of his jeans. Any other girl, and he would have charmed his way through, but his mate left him speechless. Her blue eyes met his brown ones, and she gasped and looked down.
“H-hi. I’m Ashley,” She blushed before looking back at her feet. Matt was just floored. Her beautiful voice rang out like a melody, causing him to feel an ultimate high that drugs couldn’t even do. Not that he would do any drugs, just listening to her voice was plenty enough for him to not resist the urge to kiss her.
“I’m Matt. Would you like to come with me to the pack house? My alpha is there, and I know he’ll accept you into my pack”
“Really? Because I just transferred to a college here, and I didn’t want to be considered a rogue and all...” Matt just couldn’t resist the urge, and put a hand on her cheek, stroking it softly.
“Don’t worry, you’re safe with me. We even go to the same college. I’m a sophomore there. And don’t worry about being a rogue, my alpha is kind, he will accept you immediately. I’m his son and beta to the pack,” Matt grabbed her hand and they headed off towards the others. Leo, Taylor, and Natasha waited impatiently for Matt to come.
“Ashley, this is my soon to be alpha Leo, his mate and my sister, Taylor, and her friend and one of my pack members, Natasha.” He introduced them all, and Ashley shook each of their hands.
“Nice to meet you guys,” she smiled at them. Her smile made Matt’s heart leap into summersaults.
“Come on guys, we better head back,” Matt began, but Taylor stopped him.
“Wait Matt! Ashley is part of our pack now, and she needs a dress for the party tonight!” Taylor cried out.
“Okay, but I’m coming with you guys,” Matt said before grabbing Ashley’s hand. She blushed furiously. “I like it when you blush,” he whispered into her ear, making her shiver and blush more.

(Taylor’s POV)

After what seemed like forever, Taylor and the others were back to the packhouse. They had bought Matt’s mate Ashley a new dress for the party tonight. Her dress was strapless and black, that was tight at the bust and flared out after. It was simple, yet elegant, just like Ashley. Taylor loved her new sister in law. She was smart, funny, shy, sweet, kind, everything her brother was but even better! Taylor shook her thoughts aside. ‘Time to focus on Natasha and the plan!’ She was planning on getting Josh to see his gorgeous mate and accepting her. Natasha, Ashley, and Taylor all rushed into Taylor and Leo’s room and got ready. After curling her hair, Taylor quickly pulled on the dress and put on some eyeshadow, mascara, and eyeliner. Ashley did the same.
Taylor began to curl Natasha’s light brown hair into soft waves. She pinned up half and used a sparkly pin to keep it in place. After doing her hair, she put on some gold and silver eyeshadow and Natasha put on her mascara and eyeliner. The three checked themselves one last time before pulling on their heels and heading downstairs. Leo’s mouth dropped open at the sight of Taylor. She just giggled and walked towards him. Ashley came out and Matt had the same reaction Leo had before. Lastly, Natasha came out. Walking like a graceful, confident girl, she walked down and walked towards Taylor.
Here's the pics of all three dresses: (first one's Taylor's, then Natasha's, then Ashley's)



(A/N: Personally, my fav's is natasha's dress!(the second one) Ahh it's too cute! LOL ok now back to the story!)

Natasha’s POV (Another new POV!)

Natasha walked down towards Taylor and Leo, keeping herself graceful as a swan. She could almost trace the burning holes on her back that seemed to be coming from Josh's harsh stare. Taylor seemed to notice as well, and began grinning triumphantly; First part of the plan: complete.
“Now for the second part of the plan,” Taylor smiled mischievously and walked over towards the others. Zane, Leo’s brother walked over to Natasha and asked her to dance. Although, Zane was pretty hot, she felt bad for using him; however, he kept reassuring her it was fine. He was in on the plan as well, and he didn’t mind as long as he got to dance with a girl as beautiful as Natasha.
“So Natasha, I’m still puzzled as to why a gorgeous girl like you would ever be rejected by her own mate?” Zane whispered into her ear, fully aware of the roomful of werewolves that surrounded them. Not that it mattered anyway, considering most of them were too buzzed out to actually hear him.
“Well, I wouldn’t call myself that beautiful. Maybe that’s why he rejected me,” Natasha said, trying to keep herself composed, but her whisper just came out shaky.
“Well if it makes you feel any better, I think you’re beautiful. With the evil glares he’s giving me
