I could feel the power they had, deep and strong as the Mountains they worked and lived on. Something told me I was going to be connected to them somehow. I just didn’t know how I knew that. There was also still the sense of foreboding in my gut. I still couldn’t get rid of it even with this deviation.
“We’d like to be friends, you shouldn’t have been so isolated because of your sister.” Galen said, speaking first.
“Your sister is evil incarnate, and it looks like we’ll be hanging together now anyway, with lover boy being our sister’s mate.” Kian adds.
“Plus we need someone who’ll be an outsider with us while they make googly eyes at each other” said Galen, amused.
That last comment makes me giggle. “I don’t know what’s worse, that you’re right or that a wolf as big as you said googly eyes.”
That made them laugh as we watched the couple, they’re no longer standing in the parking lot but on the lawn not that far from us. They were indeed making googly eyes at each other, the term making me giggle again. Then I hear a familiar engine sound and the blasting sound system.
My sister and her friends pull up in my sister’s cherry red convertible all singing badly and off key to the song. It was some song about brushing their teeth with a bottle of jack, which I found the thought disgusting. But that just showed you how much of a party girl she was.
As her and her cronies are getting out of the car, having parked not far from us, another vehicle races into the school’s lot. This one is another off road Jeep, it’s color red, and it belonged to Matthew, or Matt to his friends.
He is my sister’s boyfriend, the second son of the Alpha’s Beta, Beta Boris. Technically Darien and Matt should have been best of friends. But his like of Sarah and his treatment of me had made that impossible for Darien. He didn’t approve, and to Matt that, was unacceptable.
They had a big knock down, drag out fight that Darien won. They haven’t been friendly to each other since. They would outright avoid each other, if they did meet, there were no words between them. Just glares.
“I don’t like that guy” I hear Kian say. It’s funny, but now that I’ve talked to both of them I can recognize which one is talking, without having to look at them, despite their voices being nearly the same. But I’ve always been good with sound and pitches, music was something I thrived on.
I loved to be able to go to my favorite quiet place, and soak up everything around me, while allowing my music to sink into my body and soul, to rejuvenate me when things got really bad. Then I would let Xena out, so she could run and feel one with the earth and life around us. The feeling I had in my stomach is threatening to bring my breakfast back up at the sight of him.
My sister noticed Serenity’s Jeep. Being as incredibly stupid and un-observant of everything not pertaining to themselves, so they stupidly start to make comments. “Ugh, it’s that raggedy Ann wolfs Jeep.” Agatha starts. “Who get’s one in purple, it’s so gaudy.” Beatrice adds.
Like she was one to talk, she actually wore a leopard print tube dress that threatened to leave her breasts hanging out, leopard print stilettos with gold heels and big chunky gold necklace, earrings, and bracelets. A wolf in leopard print, now that was
tasteless.
“That little heifer is so ugly I feel sorry for whoever her mate will be.” Sarah said viciously.
“I’ll just have to step in and show her mate what a real she wolf is then.” Lauren said boastfully. They all let out screeching laughs.
They were like a group of hyenas, instead of a group of She-wolves. Matt is out of his Jeep and joining the group. Galen and
Kian are angry and growling. “Easy boys.” I say. “It’s not you two, who needs to defend her right now.”
They look at me in indignation, so I explain. “She has a mate now remember?” I let that sink in a second “It’s now his job to defend his mate’s honor, and put them in their place, and he will.” I gesture in Darien’s direction. “Look.”
The fury Darien felt was plain to see on his face as he held his mate in his arms, she was angry too, and had tears in her eyes. I know Darien. He’s going to make them pay for the tears in her eyes. “I wouldn’t touch a skank like you with a ten foot pole, and If you weren’t a werewolf, you’d probably be littered with diseases. You disgust me.” The anger and loathing in his tone was like a whip to the face for Lauren. He had the group’s attention, their eyes widen when they see Darien’s arms around Serenity.
Sarah’s expression is particularly vile. “You have a pig for a mate, how fitting for someone who likes to hang out with the trash.”
She spits.
Matt is trying to shush Sarah, to get her to stop, but she never stops, she’s an evil bitch and won’t be satisfied till she’s made everyone feel squashed beneath her black and pink stilettos. The wind blows his scent my way as the confrontation goes on, and I smell it, the sent of my mate.
The conversation melts into the background as I stare at Matt, and my heart instantly breaks. It couldn’t be. Why would the Moon
Goddess be so cruel as to choose him for my mate. My sister’s boyfriend, please don’t let her find out.
The wind blows back in the other direction, Matt stops trying to get Sarah to calm down and sniffs the air, he turns in my direction and my heart stops beating for a moment. The look on his face when he see who it was, is of pure disgust and disbelief.
My heart is now shattering, and I can hear Xena whimper inside from the pain she is also feeling, because we both know, we were being rejected. Our mate would never accept us. I must have made a sound, because Kian and Galen are on either side of me each touching an arm.
“What’s wrong?” it was Kian who asked first.
“You look like you are about to shatter.” Galen said in a worried tone.
There was no point in hiding it, and I know my sister will spread just how pathetic I am. So I tell them, “Matt is my mate.” my tone is low, despondent and husky. The two wolves look up at Matt and the look on his face, they both look back at me with sorrowful eyes.
“I’m so sorry.” whispers Galen,
“Yeah, you should have better then what’s coming.” said Kian.
“It’s okay.” I tell them. “Somehow I knew today was going to be a very bad day for me, I just didn’t realize how bad.” I feel the ringing in my ears as I start walking in Matt’s direction.
