Lycan Princess Fated Luna

Soma’s POV

Moving to a new city was never in my plans but staying in the small town where I was raised wasn’t either. Packing up my small jeep I wiped the tears from my cheeks and said goodbye to my family and headed out. Finally, off to find the true meaning of life, and finally open the tea store I talked about as a little girl.

My name is Soma, I am from a rundown town in Colorado heading East, hoping the grass is greener, which is the saying at least. My mother was from New York, my father jumped around Colorado, never left.

Getting on the highway made my heart skipped a few times, this was a sure thing I was making my waves away from the state and making my dream a reality. I didn’t have much, but I knew what I wanted and would make things happen. I had a good head on my shoulder and I had enough money in the bank.

I had a good friend in New York already put a payment down on a building so I had a place for the tea shop; he already set my apartment up, now the drive and the excitement of setting up. I didn’t know much about the state and how everyone would be, excited yes, scared even more.

Two days later.

Exhausted from the drive, Nick met me at the apartment, he didn’t stay long, he showed me where my apartment was, kissed me on the cheek, and let me carry my bags in and I barely made it to my bed before I crashed for about twelve hours.

Waking up the next morning, I felt refreshed and ready to tackle the next day, I took a shower and unpacked my stuff, and looked around the apartment, it was small but it was all I could afford since New York was pricey and I wasn’t sure how I would do with the tea shop. My parents weren’t rich but they would help me out if things weren’t that good here, but I had faith I would be okay here.

I noticed a package sitting on my dining table.

“Soma, here’s everything for your shop, some new teas I know you’d love -Nick.”

I smiled, Nick was a good friend of mine, he was going to London, and so I knew he would be sending me more tea when he found it. He would help me keep the store stocked with other teas. We go back to grade school, he’s always supported me and my dreams of being the tea lady, he wanted to be this world traveler, I would have gone with him had it not been my dream to be in New York.

Grabbing the box, I was excited to see what the store looked like; I needed to make arrangements for how much product I would need to order. I was scared about the cost of how much it would put me back, but I knew, in the end, it would be worth it. I wondered how many people drank tea in this part of New York. Nick said there were a lot of interesting people around here when he did a walk around and asked people about it. I was hoping he wasn’t just being nice about this whole thing.

Putting the address to the store into the GPS, I had butterflies all over again; I was like a little girl on Christmas morning. I couldn’t wait to see what this place looked like. Driving only took about twenty minutes, the traffic was horrible but I couldn’t ask for less right. The constant honking and the yelling from people made me chuckle a little.
