“Mine” He growls behind me, making everyone look at each other, no one hiding their shock at his words. My brother seems to regain himself faster before turning to the Alpha.
“Let her go, she is only sixteen, you are scaring my sister” He growls, stepping forward before ripping me away from the Alpha. I run to my sister before turning around to face the man that claims I belong to him. He was very handsome with his dark hair and hypnotic emerald, green eyes. His penetrating gaze made me step back and away from him further. His eyes not leaving me. I felt nothing towards him, so how could he claim I was his mate. Arial tugs me toward the pack house door when he growls loudly, making me look back at him. My father, Damien, and my brother blocking him from me.
I find myself frozen on the spot, locked in place by his intense gaze, unable to take another step when my mother finally walks out.
“You claim my daughter is yours?” She asks, raising an eyebrow at him, her lips pursing. He straightens up before looking at her. No one can go against my mother. And if they did, it was their funeral. By the look the Alpha gave her, he knew this as he nodded to her.
“Luna Queen” He nods in respect.
“Well, come inside so we can finish this meeting quickly and we can talk, but I can assure you Alpha my daughter will not be going anywhere with you unless she agrees, understood?” She demands. He growls but nods his head before his eyes go back to me.
“No disrespect Luna but I will not be leaving without my mate” He says his eyes not leaving mine. My mother looks at me sadly and I feel Arial’s grip on my arm tighten.
“I don’t want to go with him mamma” I tell her through the mind-link.
“Go inside, your father and I will handle this” She tells me, and I let out the breath I was holding before racing inside with my sister.
“Do you think he is your mate?” Arial asks as soon as the door is shut. My younger brothers raced down the stairs toward us excitedly.
“Lana, Arial, did you hear the notorious Alpha Tate and Alpha Drake are coming today?” My brother Ace asked, he was obsessed with Alpha’s. I didn’t understand his obsession considering he would one day be one.
“Yes Ace, we know. Tate is outside with mum and Dad. Now go with Tyson and play with your cousins. They are in the games room” Arial says, giving them a stern look. They both take off. They were both identical twins and little mischief makers, always up to no good.
Storming off upstairs, I head to my room. Sitting on my bed annoyed.
“So, do you?” Asks Arial and I roll my eyes.
“No, I feel nothing towards him” I tell her, and she nods thinking.
“On the plus side he is gorgeous” Arial says, nudging me with her elbow and I roll my eyes. I chuckle, shaking my head. Of course that is all she cares about. I loved my sister, but she could be a little vain. Hearing another car pull up Arial walks to the window.
“Well damn that man is fine, come check out the eye candy” Arial says but I ignore her.
“That must be Alpha Drake, I heard stories about him. Apparently, he is a complete ass and Alpha Tate has been at war with him over land disputes” Arial says.
“Has Alpha Tate left?” I ask not wanting to get off my bed.
“Ah no, he is still here and oh that looked like it hurt” I hear my sister say as she cringes.
“What?” I ask, sitting up and rushing to the window. Ryker had Alpha Tate by the arms holding him back and my father had Alpha Drake. It looked like Alpha Drake may have punched Alpha Tate. I could hear their arguing and Tate spat blood on the ground. Both of them looked like they were about to rip each other apart.
My mother walking between them both giving them a scolding for their inappropriate behaviour. I chuckled at seeing them both drop their heads and suddenly both of them looked up at the window. Arial and I ducking down out of sight.
“Who said Alpha meetings were boring? I would love to be a fly on the wall in the meeting” Arial says, making me giggle. We both peek a glimpse out the window, but everyone is gone when we hear arguing downstairs.
“He started it” I heard Alpha Tate exclaim.
“I don’t care who started it, I will finish it, if you don’t shut up” My mother snaps at them both. The downstairs foyer goes quiet.
“Girls I know you are up there, come to the meeting room” I groan and Arial laughs.
“Don’t be so glum, at least you found your mate” She says.
Getting up, I walk to the stairs and see my mother talking to the Alpha’s from the other pack.
“I am so sorry Alpha’s for wasting your time” She says escorting them out.
“It’s fine my queen, I see you have your hands full with those two in there” The Alpha from Fire pack tells my mother, the other Alpha’s agreeing with him looking up the hallway before their eyes snap to the stairs where Arial and I are.
“Goodluck” The Alpha announces to me, great everyone heard Alpha Tate, just what I needed. They leave and my mother turns to us.
“Are you okay girls?”
“Yes ma, we are fine”
“Good come in, I will quickly sort this mess between these two. Then we will sort this whole mate issue” She sighs, and I could see how annoyed she was. They want to tread lightly, my mother was in a mood, god help them if she snaps.
“Can I wait out here?” I whine not wanting to go in.
“That would be rude besides, neither of you have met Alpha Drake yet” My mother tells us, and we reluctantly go down the stairs and follow her to the board room. Walking in, Alpha Tate smiles at me. Alpha Drake staring before his mouth falls open and my luck couldn’t get any worse.
“Mate” He growls stepping toward me, but before he could reach me Alpha Tate rips me toward him.
“Mine” He growls baring his canines at Alpha Drake. My father growls loudly, but that doesn’t stop Alpha Drake from grabbing my other arm and yanking me back toward him. I was being pulled back and forth until Drake lunged at Tate, both of them hitting the floor, trading blow for blow. While I stood frozen, shocked. My brother growls before punching the table, the table cracking down the middle from the force and goosebumps rise on my skin and the viciousness behind it.
