Tanya from "Tanya the Evil" is one of the best book characters of all time. She has no empathy, no remorse and no expectations. She is confident in herself across the board, looks, brain, and broad. I am none of these things.
I am the second born child of one of the most feared packs in America. My father has a voice that can shake any wolf into submission. My mother is beautiful, kind hearted and a gifted doctor. My brother has unbeatable strength, impeccable good looks and is charismatic. I am none of these things.
I am an otaku who would much rather hide away in my room than train. I have no social skills there for no friends not that having social skills would benefit my case. Lastly, I have no wolf and everyone knows it.
No one makes an effort to talk to me unless they want something. I am excluded from all social events involving other wolves my age. I don't even attend the werewolf school in our territory. I attend an all girls human high school and walk home everyday.
I may not have a wolf but I do have a gift. The red strings of fate. I know who ever person is destined to be together before they do. My brother; an omega boy named Felix. His beta; the packs current power hungry whore. The future gamma; a human girl who works at the bakery in town.
Finn and I use to play with the kids of the alpha and luna from the pack next door to ours. There eldest son, Grant. My brothers best friend is my mate. I haven't seen him since his parents shipped him off to special training five years ago. Now he has finished school and is coming back to take his place as alpha of his pack. Actually him, and my brother are going to make it a joint event. Cute right?
I'm not naïve. I'm fourteen and he is nineteen. The age difference alone would force him to choose another. He needs someone who can rule by his side now. He needs someone who is willing to carry his children now. He needs someone who can defend there people. To put it simply I'm not luna material.
I have accepted that this is fate. The moon goddess messed up. I was paired with someone totally unattainable. Someone who stands above all others. He will find happiness with someone else and eventually so will I.
The strings that attach us together can't simply be cut. They have to wither away. Which means no contact or a watch him truly fall in love with another.
I will embrace my favorite book character. No empathy, no remorse, no expectations and nothing but sheer confidence.
Before he steps foot onto Dragon Blood territory and discover me I will be long gone.
