“Walk it off, Myles,” dad tells him.
“She hit me in the balls,” he chokes.
“And you punched me in my lady nuts,” I argue, kicking him in the leg. Brothers, I love having them, but I wanna kill them sometimes. I think when I feel someone try to mindlink me.
Jasmine’s voice flits through my head. “Meet me at Kat’s. I have something I want to tell you both,” Jasmine orders.
“Aren’t you coming here tonight?” I ask her,
“Yes, but I wanna tell my besties first, please meet me at Kat’s in like half an hour,” Jasmine begs. I groan, but tell her yes.
I don’t want to go to Kat’s, the Alpha still hasn’t forgiven me, but I do miss her. Both her and Jasmine have shown me what real friends are. I just hope I can fix mine and Kat’s now strained relationship.
“We will, it will just take some time,” Alia, my wolf, tells me. She has been a little off since yesterday when we saw Kat. I don’t know why but something was different about her, and she smelt amazing mouth-watering even. Hurrying inside, I quickly race to all the rooms, grab everyone’s dirty laundry, dump it in the washing machine, and turn it on before quickly getting changed. A shower will have to wait. I want to find out what news Jasmine wants to share.
My father steps into my path as I am rushing out the door. “Where are you going?”
“To see Kat and Jasmine.”
“You did your chores?” he asks, and I nod.
“I will hang it out when I get home,” I assure him.
“Not too late, Missy, you are still on punishment,” my father warns me.
“Ok, dad,” I answer with a kiss to his cheek before escaping past him and heading for my car.
The drive to the Packhouse is long and boring, but pulling up I spot Jasmine’s car already there and Kat at the door talking to her. Good, I arrived just in time, and I don’t have to worry about Ezra opening the door to yell at me more. Alia was excitedly jumping around in my head for some unknown reason, urging me to get out of the car.
I park next to Jasmine’s and get out, knowing that both girls are waiting for me by the door.
“What is this news you want to share?” I call out to Jasmine as I lock my car. She happily bounced up and down, and I can tell Kat is just as confused as I am.
Making my way to them, Alia presses beneath my skin. “See if she smells the same, sniff her!”
“I am not sniffing her, you were embarrassing yesterday,” I scold her when she forces control, making me embrace a startled Kat.
“Nice to see you too,” Kat chuckles as I throw my arms around her. My face heats at what Alia made me do, before she suddenly sulks, Kat smells like Kat again, the weird scent is no longer around her from yesterday, I can feel Alia’s disappointment but shove it aside.
“Ah, what about me? Just barge past and steal hugs, leaving me behind?” Jasmine scolds, and I smile before quickly hugging her.
I step back, and she has a mischievous grin on her face, her eyes sparkling brightly with her excitement. “So you’re going to tell us?” I ask her as we make our way through the house and into the kitchen.
“Tell you what?” Questions Mateo through a mouthful of cereal, from the table.
Jasmine reaches into her back pocket before handing me something. I realize instantly it is a pregnancy test. A little plus sign is in the window. “No! You are pregnant? I’m going to be an aunty?” I squeal, jumping up and down with her. “Gross, that means you had sex with my brother,” I tell her, pulling a face.
“I would be less worried about her screwing your brother and more worried by the fact you are holding something she peed on,” Mateo observes, wrinkling his nose. “Congrats, Jas, happy for you,” Mateo congratulates, getting up and hugging her shoulders before dropping his bowl in the sink. He kisses Kat’s cheek before walking out, leaving us by ourselves.
“Do you know how far along? Ooh, we can go baby shopping!” Kat squeals, also just as excited.
Katya
“About 8 weeks!” Jasmine giggles excitedly.
I furrow my brows at her, looking down at her stomach. “But, you haven’t been with your mate that long, and shouldn’t you be massive, seeing as werewolf babies are born in half the time?” I ask. Jasmine chuckles, finding what I said rather funny. I don’t get what is so amusing, I can’t tear my eyes away from the non-existent baby bump.
“No, Kat. The baby is 8 weeks along in foetal development, I am only like a week or two pregnant, but scans are still done with human technology,”
Even Angie laughs at my idiocy. “Hello Kat? Did you not pay attention in your child studies class?”
“In my defence, I have hardly been at school,” I tell them with a sniff and fold arms, besides, babies are the last thing on my mind. Though I am happy and excited for Jasmine.
“I am surprised Ezra, and Mateo haven’t knocked you up yet, though,” Angie muses.
“Not like we are exactly careful either,” Ezra agrees, joining us in the kitchen. It had been the most he had spoken to either Mateo or me since the incident, and it wasn’t even to us, but the girls. Strolling over he grabs a beer out of the fridge before sitting at the dining table watching us. Angie grows nervous beneath his gaze, but Ezra pays her no attention instead looking out the double glass doors out to the treeline.
“Too bad you haven’t found your mate, it would be nice not to be the only one getting fat and pregnant,” Jasmine jokes, glancing at Angie.
“Sure, I will get right onto that,” she chuckles, the pressure of being in the same room as a grumpy Alpha being taken away for a few minutes.
“Yep, just jump him on sight so we can be fat together,” Jasmine adds with a grin.
Angie’s face glows bright red at her words. “Gotta find him first,” Angie laughs nervously. But her blush doesn’t go unnoticed by either of us.
“What are you all embarrassed about? Look at how bright red she is! Not getting any, Angie?” Jasmine ribs, and I also stare at her blushing face, finding it odd. She has boys hanging off her all the time at school, yet mention sex, and she turns into this?.
“She is a virgin,” Ezra remarks, making both me and Jasmine stare at him like he just grew two heads.
“Bullshit, she dated half the football team,” Jasmine accuses, looking at Angie, whose face just grows redder before she processes what Jasmine said.
“That doesn’t mean I am a whore Jas!”
I chuckle at their bickering, but even I thought Angie was far from being a virgin.
“Hey, not my fault. I heard the rumors going around the school. I assumed some of them had to be correct.”
“Yeah, thanks for thinking so little of me. Just because I dated them doesn’t mean I slept with them!”
“Sorry, my judgment was wrong, wait how do you know she is a virgin?” Jasmine questions, twisting around to stare at Ezra.
He taps his nose before looking at his phone screen. “Everyone should leave soon, Kat, Andrei will be here in twenty minutes,” Ezra announces.
“Who, that Alpha from the next pack over?” Jasmine asks with her head cocked to the side, and he nods.
“Yeah, turns out he is my brother,” I answer her, making both their heads whip back to me.
“You have a brother?” Angie gasps.
“Yeah, I will fill you in later. Just another hidden bit that has come out of my box of family secrets.”
“Well, make sure you ring us later. I will be heading to Angie’s tonight anyway. I want to hear about this alleged brother you have,” Jasmine grins, and I nod.
