Caleb, the Alpha's kid, was a bit younger than I was. I didn't see him very much because he was being homeschooled as part of his training to become Alpha. However, I had issue with my mother's repeated hints that she saw the two of us as friends even if I didn't actually mind him.
Teenage years are when werewolves change. I hadn't Shifted yet, which wasn't unusual, but my brother and both of my parents had done so in their early teens. I had not Shifted even though I was sixteen. I was the smallest child in the family once more.
My mother was certain that Caleb and I were mates despite the fact that Caleb hadn't Shifted yet either but could at any moment. My mother was preoccupied with the idea that I would someday become the pack's Luna since an Alpha could only ever date another Alpha or a Beta. There is nothing worse that comes to mind.
Caleb walked to stand next to me and grinned at me. His father started talking about the planned visit from an Alpha of another Pack as I returned his smile. The Equinox Pack, the biggest Pack in the nation, was led by Alpha Levi Ethan. I was very sure that we wouldn't back Alpha Ethan in the current War he was engaged in, but he requested assistance from our Alpha. As a peaceful Pack, we made an effort to avoid altercations.
But everyone in the Pack was on edge. Although conflicts between wolf packs were uncommon, when they did happen, they were violent. If the conflict was significant enough, they may wreak havoc and kill everyone in the packs. Additionally, I was very certain that this war would be disastrous based on how my father had described the impending conflict. I struggled with listening to stuff I didn't care about, so I didn't even know what it was about.
Alpha Ethan is scheduled to arrive tomorrow night. "I know it is uncomfortable for everyone, having unknown Wolves in the Pack," Alpha Parker said to the pack. But he is here to speak for all the other Packs engaged in the impending conflict with Alpha Deeds. Although we haven't decided on a side just yet, the way things are going, we won't have an option but to join.
The Pack was buzzing with anxiety and excitement. Because it was a war, people were both anxious and enthusiastic. Werewolves had an odd way of being; they were scared of dying because they were so proud, but eager to kill and fight people for their pride. Even I struggled to understand it.
Alpha Parker then said, "However, I will not make any decisions without first consulting Howard, Joel, and Kelly," referring to my father, the third in command, and the current Luna. However, with reference to this visit, I require everyone to be inside their homes by 8:00 p.m., unless they are on patrol, working in the dungeons, or have previously spoken to me and have received my permission to be exempt from curfew. However, beginning of tonight, there is an eight-hour curfew that the entire Pack must adhere to or face punishment.
The Pack exchanged anxious eyes when there was a brief pause. "That's it for now. I anticipate having everyone home by eight o'clock tonight. You have been fired.
I figured that I had enough time to make a quick trip to the skatepark because my brother had vanished to do god knows what, and my parents had to stay behind to speak with the Alpha. "Hey, you losers, are we going skating or what?" I questioned my pals.
Chris, Dom, and Jared all turned to look at me. Dom scowled, "You heard the Alpha, May, we have a curfew now.
I rolled my eyes at him and said, "Don't be a pussy, Dom," to the amusement of the other boys.
Dom retorted, "Hey, I'm not a pussy, but some of us aren't the Beta's daughter."
Chris retaliated, "That just means she's going to get in more trouble, not less idiot," Together with Chris, I pump my fist as we make fun of Dom. Dom narrowed his eyes at us and nearly turned as red as his hair.
Okay, let's leave. He finally gave in and said, "But I'm not staying for long. Before going to the skatepark, the lads and I laughed at him. As usual, Jared had a spare board in his car, so we first stopped there so I could get it. After that, we traveled the ten minutes to the closest skatepark.
Jared pointed to a group of teenage boys hanging out on one of the ramps and said, "Oh no, looks who's here.
"Great, just what I need," I moaned. Three older males who attended my school and had bullied my friends and I since we were approximately twelve years old were sitting on one of the ramps. They teased me the most because I was the only girl at my school when they came. We were unable to accomplish anything until one of my friends' groups Shifted, and I couldn't wait to finally bash their asses.
The main jerk, Todd, sneered as he saw us, "Ah look who it is, Marty." They all came over to talk to us. Twin brothers Marty and Todd were as cruel as they were ugly. They socialized with Josh and Mac, two other guys.
Marty joked with his brother and friends, "It's the bum fun gang."
Josh jaunted at us, "The guys all stick their dicks up each other's ass's while they're dyke friend watches." I had my fists clinched at my sides, but I kept quiet since I was tired of these jerks beating me up. I had considered notifying my parents, but I quickly changed my mind after my brother witnessed the men harassing me and joined in their laughter.
All I had to do was wait till I shifted so I could beat the living crap out of them by myself.
Jared murmured, "We just came to skate," in irritation. I took a quick look at my friends and realized we were all losers. We were outcasts in the truest sense of the word; we were all crazy about comic books and science fiction television, and we all earned good marks, with the exception of myself. However, despite the fact that we were all werewolves, we were essentially losers. Since we were all bullied, no one was ever surprised to learn of it.
"What did you say, four-eyes?" Todd commanded while gently pushing Jared backward. I exhaled deeply to calm myself as I considered how to escape this predicament. All I wanted was to get out without being hurt. However, I didn't believe there was a great likelihood of that.
Don't refer to him as that, Dom yelled.
Marty told Dom to stop talking and pushed him to the ground. Dom stumbled and dropped his phone, which shattered on the ground. When he grabbed it, the screen was entirely cracked, which caused him to shout angrily. As Todd and the others laughed at him, his eyes began to water. Dom worked part-time for six months in a fast food restaurant to be able to afford his own phone because his parents wouldn't get him one. He attempted to switch it on, but nothing happened.
Dom murmured, "You broke my phone," as tears welled up in his eyes.
I said under my breath, "Oh fuck," knowing that something terrible was about to happen.
"What are you going to do about it, nerd?" Todd scoffed.
I tried to diffuse the situation by saying, "Look, we don't want any problems, we'll go."
In between sobs, Dom yelled, "You broke my fucking phone." Jared looked around to see if anyone could assist us while Chris and I exchanged looks. We weren't as fortunate, though.
We were all standing there one moment, then the next, several idiots started attacking us. One of them shoved me over, and I smacked my head on the concrete. They would cheerfully beat me up regardless of the fact that I was a girl. As Mac was holding me to the ground, I attempted to shove him off of me, but it was useless. Even though I was quite strong for my size, once I got pinned, it was useless.Before punching me in the face, he gave me a wicked smirk. My cheek was throbbing, and I yelled in agony. I started crying right away. I loathed sobbing, but I also loathed how pitiful and insignificant I felt. I only wanted a fair fight once, but until I Shifted, I would never be able to defeat the four jerks who were the school football players.As I lay on the ground sobbing like a helpless child, I could hear my companions' cries for help. As I sobbed, I twisted into a foetal posture in an effort to at least defend myself. However, the altercation didn't last long, and the bullies so
It won't get much better than this, I said to my mirror. My face was little and in the shape of a love heart, with big, round eyes and small features. I detested those darn freckles, which covered almost every inch of my face. The freckles were still noticeable even on my dark Latin skin. Although in a twelve-year-old way, I was cute. Roland commanded me to "hurry the fuck up."My father yelled out at him, "Watch your language, Ro." I rolled my eyes and turned away from my mirror before leaving the room. I strolled alongside my family to the Alpha's home, lagging a little behind while they talked. My dad yelled at me, "Mabella, keep going."When my parents and I got to the Alpha's house, Alpha Parker invited them to join him in his office for a drink with Alpha Ethan and his Beta. Why don't you go hang out with Caleb, my mum said, "Darling." I rolled my eyes because I didn't like that she was still trying to persuade herself that I would be Caleb's mate.I rolled my eyes when they we
The first to speak was my father, who turned to Seth, the Alpha Zev, and stated that I was his mate. My father screamed in rage, "You are incorrect.If I'm not mistaken, she is mine, Levi said to my father while narrowing his eyes.My dad countered, "She's a kid. Before he appeared to comprehend what my father was saying, Levi turned back to face me and gave me another quick glance. He asked me, appearing to come out of his protectiveness, "Damn, how old are you?" When I opened my mouth to respond, my father spoke before me.He yelled, "She's sixteen; she hasn't even Shifted. She cannot be your partner because you are old enough to be her father.Not nearly, but sure, I get your argument, snorted Seth. He let out a loud sigh and looked concerned as he ran his fingers down his face. I wasn't really sure how to approach the whole thing. I had not yet Shifted, so I had not experienced the mating link. But I couldn't help but feel a strong attraction to Seth.Levi looked at me once more
There was some movement when Dean rapped on the door. The third in charge was standing in front of me outside the spare house's bedroom where Levi was staying. Seth, of course, had the largest room in the home even though all of the Equinox Wolves were staying there.Levi yelled out, "What?" and I trembled within in response to his husky, male voice.Dean called and said, "It's me."Levi screamed, "Good, pack your crap. We're going today. I want to go before I have to see her again." I whimpered inconsolably in my head, but my face was expressionless. Before attempting to open the door, Dean gave me a sympathetic look. It was secure. Dean, it's locked, said Seth.You need to speak to your mate, so open it up, man.Levi stormed across the room while growling. My partner is. When the door was opened, Dean and I were in his direct line of sight."Your mate is right here," I said, frowning. Levi gave me another quick glance, his face as expressionless as mine. In all honesty, he was the m
Dean yelled, "levi, dude, Alpha Peters is here." As my hand immediately rose to cover my neck, levi pulled away from me with blood covering his face.levi responded by calling back, appearing both anxious and out of breath. "I'll be down in a minute." I got out of bed as we heard Dean go. levi and I were both still shirtless, but I didn't feel exposed. levi murmured, "I'm sorry, I should have asked before claiming you.I sighed, "It's okay...I'm glad you claimed me, but...did you really want to claim me? Do you really want me to be your mate?" My neck was no longer bleeding, but it was still hurting. levi frowned when I withdrew my hand since it was covered in blood.He ignored my query and said, "Wait there." He entered the en suite bathroom and emerged moments later carrying a damp towel. Before wiping his own lips and neck, he cleansed the blood from my hand, neck, and shoulders. I made a self-conscious remark like, "You didn't answer my question."He frankly stated, "Because I do
is your mate and you are now a Luna.Roland snorted, "Luna my ass."I said angrily at him, "You're just jealous that I'll be a higher ranking than you'll ever be."You are only a Luna because you are selling yourself to an Alpha who wants to start a war and exterminate half the people.Roland, stop talking about your sister in such a way, my father yelled.He pointed to my claim mark and said, "It's the truth. She's only known the guy for a day and she's already got her tramp stamp.My dad gave him a stern "Roland" look.I snorted, "I don't know why you care, dick, it seems like you'll have me off your hands by tomorrow."True, I'm eager to never see your unattractive face again.My father yelled, "Roland, I will not tell you again," and slammed his fist onto the table; the drinks sloshed but didn't spill. He turned to me while still appearing irate. "You'll be traveling with Alpha Ethan tomorrow evening as he returns to the Equinox territory."I cried, "I don't want to leave, I have
levi growled "Fuck" in his sleep. As we traveled to the Equinox region, he sat next to me in the SUV's back seat. After five hours of travel, levi had passed out next to me. I was squeezed in between the two big men with Dean on the opposite side of me, which only made me feel smaller. The Beta, whose name I later learned to be Josh, was driving, and Oli were both seated in the front.I cast a quick peek at levi, who was snoring. He moaned in his sleep, "Don't...fuck." His fingers slid into his pants as he shifted in his seat. My eyes widened as I became aware of the expanding bulge in his pants. I soon understood the subject of his dream. "Faster...fuck...mabella".I blushed and uncomfortably glanced into my lap as Dean snorted. From the driver's seat, Josh observed, "Someone's having a nice sleep." levi groused once again as Dean and Oli chuckled. levi said in his sleep, "Yes, mabella...fuck more". I clumsily nudged my partner as I could feel the heat spreading throughout my entire
That night, I had trouble sleeping, although it had nothing to do with the bed. The bed was gorgeous and big, with soft white cushions and a dark purple blanket. But I slept restlessly that entire night as I laid there. I couldn't fall asleep, and the jerk down the hall was to blame. I wanted desperately for him to like me, want me, and fall in love with me, but I didn't dislike him at all. I really wanted to blame him for it because he had made it plain that he wouldn't, but instead, it only made me more needy for his desire for me. I desired levi's desire for me.I got out of bed and went downstairs when it was three in the morning and I still couldn't sleep due to tension. I didn't switch on any of the lights while I took in the lovely inside of the house.I went to the kitchen and got a glass of water, then I sat at the breakfast bar and looked out into the pitch-black night forest. Chris had sent me a couple texts, which I saw on my phone, but I chose to ignore them because I di
