We walk in silence for a few minutes, I could tell something was bothering her but I didn't know what, I don't think I've done anything to annoy her, maybe she's just got a hangover I mean I do. 

"I would never leave you," she says randomly snapping me out of my thoughts, I just stare at her confused. 

"What?" I question but she just stops abruptly crossing her arms. 

"Last night, you just left me and was in the kitchen with your mate," she says well nearly shouts at me, I give her an even more confused look. 

"Okay, why are you saying it like that? The guy that you wanted to flirt with me actually put something in my drinks" I say losing my temper "I was drugged! And all you seem to care about is I left you, if I didn't go to Ryan I don't know would have happened" I shout this time, she doesn't have the right to speak about Ryan like that, no one does. 

"Finally you're thinking about mate, it took you long enough" sky chimes in snapping at me a little   

"All you talk about is him, last week you thought he was your brother" she shouts which was the last straw for me, I can't believe she'd even think to say that. 

"Yeah well at least I've actually found my mate" I shout ripping the bracelet that she got me off my wrist and at her face. 

I storm off leaving her standing there alone, I was beyond angry at this point my wolf for reasons I don't know was also growling. I came to a corner where a few very smart looking people were standing, I tried walking down there but was stopped. 

"Miss you can't go through there," a man in a suit says holding his arm out preventing me from walking down the pavement. 

"I need to get home I'm not gonna do anything, I don't even know who they are," I say trying to keep my anger at bay but it wasn't working while he shook his head. 

"You know what, I am not in the mood to deal with people like you! Either you move out of my way before I do something that you're not gonna like very much" I say in a tone that I'd never used before. 

He for some reason bows his head at me moving out of my way, once he did I saw the two important people staring at me in shock, hope and maybe even happiness, but I didn't know why or gave it much thought. 

I walk past the man and towards them to get home, I was about to pass but they looked so shocked. 

"You look like you've seen a ghost" I smile kindly at them before I went on my way still angry. 

Not even two minutes into my journey I was stopped by the important-looking people again.  

"Excuse me, Miss, can we ask you something?" The man asks he had power in his voice that made the people around him bow but it didn't affect me, I smile saying okay as the women wraps her arm around his tears in her eyes.  

"If you don't mind us asking, how old are you?" He asks, I thought there was like an unspoken rule where you don't ask random strangers how old there are. 

"I turned 16 yesterday" I smile, I didn't have the best birthday though. 

This made the women well up, even more, the man started to have a few tears in his eyes too.

"Are you guys okay?" I ask looking between them, I don't know why me turning 16 is upsetting them.  

"We've just had a rough couple of years" the man smiles wiping a few tears away. 

"Join the club! But I wouldn't worry we all go through hard times, I better be going" I smile turning around to walk away.

"What's your name?" The women finally speak making me turn around. 

"Savannah !" I shout back before I turn the final corner. 

I finally arrive at home calmer than I thought I would be, before I could walk through the door my father opened it. 

"I've just got a call from Gabbie's mother, she ran home crying saying that you had a go at her," he says clearly very angry, I roll my eyes as he spoke. 

"Maybe I did, "I say walking passed him and in the house where my mum stood with Ryan. 

"This isn't on Savannah taking your problems out on poor Gabbie," she says which just made anger boil inside me. 

"Poor Gabbie, how about poor me! I've been lied to my whole life! You know what I'm happy I'm adopted, it means I'm not related to you!" I shout making her look hurt but I didn't care much, I run up the stairs slamming my bedroom door. 

I put my back to the wall sliding down until I hit the floor tears just running down my face, the feelings about everything that I've been holding in just coming out. A few minutes go by my door slowly opens Ryan popping his head in, he closes the door joining me on the floor he slowly wraps his arm around me but I just cry on his chest. 

"Nobody wanted me even as a baby, there must be something wrong with me"  I cry making him hold me tighter.  

"That's not true sweetheart," he says but I just continued to cry more than I've ever done.

I wake up in my bed, alone my throat hurt probably from the amount I cried last night, I get up and make my way downstairs to see my mum sitting in the kitchen alone.  

"Ryan's gone out to help your dad with something," she says looking towards me, I just  nod walking to the cupboard to look for something to make my throat feel better. 

"I know you're angry with me Savannah but we just didn't know how we were meant to tell you, then Ryan found out you were mates which made it even harder for us to explain," she says as I pull some throat medicine out but it was empty making me sigh in frustration. 

"I'll make you some warm honey if you've got a bad throat," she says as I take a seat at the counter sending her a nod.

"Thank you," I say as she gets up to make some, my voice sounded really rough. 

We don't talk for a few minutes which gave me time to think, I mean I am angry that they haven't told me until I'm 16, they had like my whole life too. But on the other hand, they did take me in and raise me just like I was their blood-related daughter when they didn't have too, I could have got sent to a horrible family but I didn't, I should be grateful for them. 

"I'm sorry about the way I've been acting,  I should be thankful that you did decide to look after me," I say making her turn to smile at me stirring my warm honey with a spoon.  

"It's fine hunny I completely understand, now drink your honey hunny" she smiles placing the cup in front of me making me laugh a little. 

"You're always gonna be my mum, it doesn't matter if it's not by blood" I smile making her smile holding my hand. 

I finish drinking the honey my throat feeling a little better as Ryan walks in the kitchen smiling towards me my, dad behind him. 

"I spoke with Gabbie's father and he explained everything to me," he says making me look at him confused, "Gabbie told him what she said to you and what happened the night of your birthday, with you being drugged," he says sitting at the counter in front of me sending me worried eyes, my mother gasps taking a seat right next to me. 

"You were drugged let's take her to the hospital!" She says pancaking but I stop her grabbing her hand.  

"No I don't need to go to the hospital I'm fine now, Ryan helped me out" I smile looking at him for a second to see he was also smiling. 

"We still should get you checked out," my dad says I look up to Ryan, saying help with my eyes. 

"No she's fine dad, honestly if she wasn't she would already be at the hospital," he says walking over to me placing his hand on my shoulder, making a huge smile filled my mum's face. 

"You two are too cute" she smiles rising to her feet placing my empty cup in the sink "now out I want to clean the house before we leave on Monday," She says pulling me off the seat walking Ryan and me towards the front door. 

"You two can have some mate bonding time while I clean," she says as Ryan opens the front door walking out, I had to follow my mum still pushing me towards it. 

"What are we meant to do?" I ask just as she was about to close the door. 

"Go to a cafe or something, just stay out the house for a couple of hours, have a nice time" she smiles actually closing the door locking it behind her, wow she really doesn't want us to go back in. 

"We have a weird mother" I smile as I follow him out the garden gate and towards the town.  

We were just chatting when I felt something touch my hand, I look down to see it was Ryan's hand, I smile interlocking our fingers together. We walk a little further down the road, some people sending us weird looks, oh right news hasn't spread around yet I thought it would by now, as we were about to turn the corner to the restaurant someone behind us calling my name stops us, I turn to see the same two people from yesterday, Ryan gasp bowing his head towards them while I just send him a weird look. 

"You're here again" I smile Ryan just had a confused expression standing next to me our hands still interlocked,  at least I'm not the only confused one right now. 

"We were just passing through and recognised you" the man smiles the women quickly speaks up from beside him. 

"Who's this?" The women asked straight after before I could even answer the man. 

"Oh, this is Ryan my...." I say but paused not knowing how to address him, my mate or my brother. 

"I'm Ryan, her mate," he says holding his other hand out to shake their hands. 

The women seemed to well up again like yesterday, it seems like she does that a lot, I can't say much it feels like all I've done these last few days is cry. 

"It's lovely to meet you too" the women smiles shaking his hand but looks to me. 

We just stand there in silence I didn't really know what to say, I look to Ryan who just looked back at me, I mentally tell him to speak which he seems to get. 

"We were just on our way to eat, our mum kicked us out the house," Ryan says breaking the silence, thankfully giving me the chance to speak. 

"She's cleaning the whole house and said we needed to take a walk for a couple of hours, do you want to join us?" I smile making them nod and start to follow us to the little restaurant, as we walk by other people bow their heads towards them, okay I'm growing even more confused! 

"How's your throat?"Ryan asks me, the two people that I haven't actually learnt their names yet walk beside me looking over worried. 

"It's better than it was this morning, mum gave me this weird honey drink it actually did help" I smile as the restaurant came into view and from the looks it was empty.  

"We've been coming here for years now it's the best restaurant around here" I smile to them as Ryan opens the door letting them walk in first. 

"After you" he smiles to me, I smile following the others in.  

We sat down and ordered our food, as the two important people started asking us questions. 

"You two keep saying your mum, but if you're mates you're gonna have different mums," the women asks making me tense a little but Ryan held my hand under the table, I really thought I wouldn't have to think about this for a while. 

"Growing up we thought we were brother and sister but it turns out........they're not my real parents" I smile a little making Ryan smile over at me. 

"But it means we've grown up with each other, so it's made us stronger as mates," he says smiling as the food arrives ending the conversation,  Ryan's hand didn't leave mine the whole time after that.

We make our way out of the restaurant after an hour of sitting and talking, the two people say they need to get going but they were very reluctant in doing so. 

"If you don't mind me asking, what are your names?" I ask that's something I should have asked through dinner but it never got brought up in conversation. 

"I'm Lukas and this is my wife Melissa" Lukas smiles as Melissa opens up her arms I think for a hug, okay weird.  

I smile and walk over accepting the hug, I thought it would feel weird to hug a woman that I've only met twice but in a weird way it didn't. It felt like we already had a bond I don't know where that bond came from but I pull away smiling, Lukas does the same thing as Melissa hugs Ryan, again with him it felt like I had this bond with him from somewhere. 

"It's been lovely talking with you again" I smile as we pull away Ryan interlocking our fingers again. 

"It has indeed, we should definitely do it again soon" Melissa smiles holding onto Lukas. 

"Definitely, but we should get going our mothers probably wondering where we are" Ryan smiles walking us back slowly as Lukas and Melissa stood still in place. 

"Goodbye Ryan and Ya-Savannah" Lukas smiles nearly calling me a different name, I didn't think much of it before we turn and start walking away towards our home.   

Once we were far enough away Ryan seems to stop tensing and speaks.

"I can't believe we got the chance to sit and have lunch with them," he says shocked but happy, I give him a confused look which he catches onto. 

"What do you mean?" I ask confused they seem like normal people, maybe posh but still normal.  

"Savannah don't you know who they are?" He asks I try to think but I always drew a blank I had no idea who they were 

"They're the werewolf King and Queen," he says like I was dumb for not knowing, which I probably was, why the heck did they want to have lunch with us?

Before I could respond our house came into view our mother just standing outside looking like she was waiting for us with her hands on her hips. 

"What took you two so long?" She asks a hint of annoyance in her voice. 

"You told us to stay out the house for a few hours," Ryan says, she quickly nods rubbing her hands on the apron she was wearing kind of nervously. 

"Just go upstairs and pack we're leaving tonight," she says turning to walk into the house but stops when I speak.  

"But I thought we were leaving on Monday," I say, that's what she even told us before she started cleaning.  

"Change of plan" is all she says walking in leaving the door open Ryan and I just stare at each other shocked. 

"We have a weird mother," we both say in unison with a smile. 

I start packing my things as my bedroom door knocked, I walk over opening it to see Gabbie standing there, I leave the door open but walk over to continue packing.  

"Do you need any help?" She asks, I could hear her slowly making her way into the room but I had my back to her.  

"I can manage" is all I say continuing to fold my clothes placing them into my bags neatly, she doesn't talk for a while.  

"Savannah I'm sorry, I didn't mean what I said," she says walking over to stand next to me but I still don't look up keeping my eyes on the clothes I was folding.  

"Then why say it?" I ask zipping up my bags after packing them until they were basically full,  I need options, I don't know what the weathers gonna be like. 

"I don't know why I said it, I was in the heat of the moment, I guess I was jealous that you've found your mate and I'm still looking for mine," she says sitting on my bed placing her hands in her lap. 

"I've found out that the person I thought was my brother is really my mate, there's not much to be jealous about," I say moving my bag so it was by the door, I still refuse to look at her. 

"I know that now, I'm so sorry Savannah," she says which finally makes me look over at her, she's starting to make me feel bad. 

"Come here," I say opening my arms, she immediately gets up and runs into my arms beat hugging me.

"I'm sorry Savannah," she says crying holding onto me tightly. 

"I know I'm sorry too, "I say hugging back as she continued to cry. 

Once we pull away she holds something up, I soon realise it was the bracelet she got me that I threw in her face, I smile taking it from her saying thanks. 

"My dad was able to fix it" she smiles I put it on as my mum shouts up the stairs rather loudly. 

"We're leaving!" She shouts, I pick my bags out walking out my room Gabbie following behind. 

Once I get out Ryan takes them off me putting it in the back I give Gabbie a final wave before I get in the back of the car with Ryan, my mum locks the front door running over to the car climbing in, she's really in a rush to leave.  

"Let's go," my dad says as he starts the car driving us away.
