"These are the clothes my mom bought for me even though I don't like this style at all. She thinks I'll change one day and wear the dresses she buys for me," Ruth rolled her eyes before she picked out some colorful clothes from her closet. "I don't have many clothes for you to try on. These are the only ones I think will suit you. The others are clothes that are my style. It won't suit you since you're someone who'll look best in a soft girl aesthetic."
I tilted my head as she talked. I don't understand much about style. I always thought of clothes as something worn to cover your nakedness and keep you warm. I never really looked at it as an accessory until I came to this pack.
Meeting new people really changes your whole perspective on life.
I don't understand what she meant by soft girl aesthetics. Does she think I'm some kind of defenseless soft girl? "I'm not a soft girl actually. I know how to fight. My father taught me. I can easily take down men who are double my size," I said proudly as I looked at Ruth.
Ruth paused and looked at me silently for a moment before bursting into a fit of laughter. I stared at her in confusion as I waited for her to finish laughing.
"Oh my goddess, you have a lot to learn." Ruth shook her head before she put the clothes on the bed. "Now, let's see you wear these one by one,"
I wore three dresses. A dress with purple flowers and a knitted jacket, and another two pastel colored dresses, one lavender and one soft pink. I don't know what they're made from but they were very flowy and soft.
"You look amazing!" Ruth smiled.
I squirmed on my spot as I stared in the mirror. I liked them. They made me feel pretty but it felt like I didn't belong in them. They only reached below my knees and my legs were showing. My legs weren't smooth and pretty like Ruth's and other girls. It kind of made me feel insecure.
"What is it?" Ruth raised a brow when she saw my nervous look.
"My legs…do they look…"
"Huh? What's wrong with your legs?" Ruth tilted her head.
"They're not smooth like yours…" I lowered my head.
I heard Ruth let out a snort before she laughed. "Girl, it's just hair. Everybody has body hair and that's normal. We don't stay like newborn babies all the time," she shook her head.
"But yours is smooth," I frowned.
"Yeah, well that's because I shave them. You can do it too if you want. But let me tell you, body hair is not something to be ashamed of, okay? It's totally normal." Ruth told me seriously.
I nodded my head before smiling. "I'd like to shave them,"
"That's fine. We can do that. You really need a makeover. I am so excited!" Ruth cheered as she took my hands. "Tomorrow we're going out, okay? I'll talk to Stella about it. Be ready in the morning!"

Ruth told Stella about us going out when there was everyone in the room, including my mate. He only glanced at me for a second as we talked about shopping clothes for me and stuff. Stella was excited for me and told me the names of different shops I should go to which I easily forgot because the names were really hard to pronounce and remember.
I was nervous about what he would say. I know that to buy things you need money. I was going to spend his money. I felt so bad about it. I kept wondering if it was okay to do that but he didn't say a single word.
But before he went out he handed me a small card and a piece of paper with a few numbers on it without saying anything. I was confused until Stella told me that it was a credit card and password that I could use to buy anything that I need.
I just nodded and mumbled a thank you even though I don't know how to use it. I just hope Ruth has an idea.

The first place we went to was called a salon. Ruth said I needed a makeover first. We were getting our wax treatments first. It's a treatment where they use wax to pull out the body hair. I thought it would be painful but it wasn't that bad. I'm not that sensitive to pain and they also gave me a medicine that made it bearable.
They asked if I wanted Brazilian wax. I didn't know what it was so I said yes. Lesson learned. Never say yes to something you don't know.
Ruth wasn't beside me as she went to get her own wax treatment. So I didn't know what to do when they told me to strip out of my clothes so they could…um..wax me down there.
I almost melted from embarrassment and was about to back down but the lady doing the waxing was so sweet. She told me that there was nothing to be embarrassed about.
I never felt so exposed in my whole life. I was covering my face the entire time, causing the lady to laugh. She told me her name is Nyla and she has two kids. We talked about her family for a while which made me forget about the embarrassing situation I was in.
I was so shy to even look at her face but she kept telling me that there was nothing to be ashamed of at all. She even said that I'm pretty down there so I should be confident instead of being shy which made me turn into a living tomato from embarrassment.
Ruth was laughing like a maniac when I explained the whole situation to her. She found it all funny. She said not to worry about it too much because it was a normal thing most girls did.
The next thing we did was a pedicure and manicure. That's what Ruth told me. They made our nails soft and shiny. I never thought my nails could look so pretty.
Next, they cut my hair after washing it. Ruth told me they gave me layers with wispy bangs. I don't know what that means but my hair looked gorgeous after that. I couldn't stop touching it. It felt so soft and silky. They also plucked my eyebrows to shape them. Even though it hurt a little bit, they looked amazing after.
After that, Ruth took me to a spa where they gave us a facial and a massage to relax. Ugh….it felt so good and relaxing. I had a great time there.
Ruth kept telling me that I look like a different person now and everyone back at home is going to drop their jaw after seeing me. I just shook it off as she was exaggerating things.
We had food afterward. It was delicious. Ruth said it was Italian food. I like Italian food.
The next place we went to was a mall. I was amazed to see a huge building with a lot of shops inside it. Ruth told me we could buy whatever we want from here.
We went to buy jewelry first. Ruth made me sit on a chair and put on different types of earrings and neck chains. She thinks I look better with long earrings or something. Anyways, she bought me jewelry for different occasions. I don't know how many they were but I do know how much they cost. I saw the bill with big numbers.
After seeing that, I couldn't help but get nervous. They cost too much. I don't know how much I've spent in total. It's sure going to be a big amount. Am I allowed to spend this much?
"Hey…let's stop for now," I said, causing Ruth to pause.
"What happened? Are you feeling sick?"
"I'm not…but I think we've spent enough. Everything is expensive…I don't even know if we're allowed to spend this much…" I nervously fiddled with my fingers.
Ruth chuckled before she turned to look at me. "Girl, you see this card?" She asked and I gave her a nod. "This is a black card."
I frowned and tilted my head in confusion. "What does the color of the card have to do with this?"
"Oh goddess, I sometimes forget you're from the woods. Look, a black card is something banks give to their ultra-wealthy clients. Means your mate is rich as fuck. This has no spending limit. You can buy whatever the hell you want with this. He gave it to you without even blinking. So believe me when I tell you that he wouldn't mind a few thousand dollars gone from it. You're the luna of our pack. You should look pretty and classy. Don't worry too much about the money and come with me," She flicked my forehead before dragging me to the next shop.
We bought clothes next. Different clothes for different occasions. Mostly dresses and some jeans and sweaters. She also made me buy some revealing dresses which I don't think I'll ever be wearing because I'm too shy.
"I don't think these kinds of pajamas are appropriate…" I said as I watched Ruth take different types of silk pajamas and putting them into the cart.
"What do you mean? They look amazing,"
"Look at this," I picked one and pointed at it. "The shorts are really short and I think the top will reveal too much cleavage. I can't wear this while I'm with him!"
"You should. This is the best thing to wear when you're with him." Ruth chuckled.
"What?"
"What? Did you forget? We're planning seduction. You're going to seduce your mate,"
"What? No. I don't think that's possible. He doesn't even look at me that way."
"Hey, we talked about this already. You're going to do this. There's no argument. No alpha is strong enough to resist their mate. No matter what." Ruth smirked. "Come on, let's go and buy you some sexy panties next!" She said before she walked away to the next aisle.
Oh goddess, please help me. I have no idea where this is all going…
