••• Arabella’s POV •••
“Happy twentieth birthday, Bella!” one of my childhood friends, who had arrived early for my birthday party, wished me all the happiness in the world.
”Thank you,” I replied with a bright smile.
My childhood friends would all gather to celebrate my birthday and… my wedding!
Though they didn't know about the latter yet.
“Bella, you and Shawn are such a perfect couple,” she sighed dreamily.
I was annoyed by how she was sighing because I knew she was thinking of Shawn, but I couldn't feel any happier after receiving her praise.
“You came too early, and I still need to get ready,” I complained playfully at her.
“Go and get ready!” She laughed and shooed me away.
I laughed and went to my bedroom to change and get ready as I thought about my husband-to-be.
Shawn Evander, the Alpha of the Battleclaw Banes Pack, one of the most eligible bachelors at the moment, was my destined mate!
