Prologue
There are often times when I wonder how I got to be where I am in my life right now. At 28, I’m the oldest unmated she-wolf in my pack by at least 5 years.
Its not through lack of trying. For over a decade my parents shipped me off to every ball, picnic and diplomatic meeting that, not just the US, no, the world had to offer. All in the hopes that I would find my mate. I think I can safely boast that there is not one pack that I have not either visited or attended some form of function with. Either my mate died young and I never got the chance to meet him, or has not yet come of age. If it is the latter I might as well shoot myself now because I’m pretty sure that would make me the definition if the word cougar.
No, I’m pretty sure my mate is just not out there. Which makes me the main focus of everyone’s sympathy in our pack. I hate it. Even widows and orphaned children don’t receive the sad looks, and “are you OK dears" that I receive on a daily basis.
There are often times when I wonder how my life would have been different if I had of met my mate. I watch my brother, now an Alpha ruling over the pack, his Luna by his side and he is happy. The love that shines on his face for his wife and children is the most wonderful thing. My heart aches to feel just a fraction of the happiness he possesses.
On the other hand, I am not bound to anyone or anything. I am free to come and go as I please. I feel blessed to have experienced the world and see things that no one else in our pack would dare to dream about seeing. I have met some amazing wolves along the way, wolves that have become lifelong friends.
So yes, I have a lot to feel sad about, but I have so much more to feel joyous about.
No, I will not meet my mate, but maybe I can still have a chance at feeling love?
It was on my 28th Birthday that I decided that I had spent too much time waiting for my mate to appear. I was going to take life into my own hands.
I know my parents are going to be so upset when I tell them, but I have to do this for me, before I’m too old that no one will want me.
