At the very last minute, I bumped into a man and made a marriage deal with him. I thought he was nobody, and until the day he introduced me to his family, 👀💥I knew he was not only the heir of the richest family in the world...<br /> ------<br /> In a private hospital in Sherpole.<br /> "Slap!"<br /> Thea Scott received a hard slap in the face.<br /> However, her father, Roger Scott, didn't stop. He wanted to give her another slap, but she grabbed his hand tightly, making him stop.<br /> Thea stared straight at him with angry and icy eyes. Her voice was cold as she said, "Though I was born out of wedlock, you can't trample on my dignity like that!"<br /> "Well, you're really out of line! Thea Scott! I was so kind to allow you to have my family name. Since you are a Scott, you have to obey what I said.<br /> "It's not up to you to decide whether to marry him or not." Roger's big belly trembled as he shouted in anger, which made him look so funny.<br /> Thea sneered.<br /> "Do you even need me to tell you how the country law works? Do you want me to call the police?"<br /> "Beetch!" Roger was livid with rage, and he roared furiously with an imposing manner.<br /> Clang.<br /> Thea opened the door of the ward, and some nurses happened to walk by.<br /> Roger immediately stopped shouting but just glared at Thea.<br /> "I gave you money to study abroad. Is disrespecting me what you've learned there? I would rather have spent the money on an idiot than you."<br /> "Yeah, your money indeed all went to an idiot who stirred up trouble and needed me to clean up his mess!"<br /> When Helen Scott, who had been sitting there and watching the show, heard Thea mocking her son, she couldn't help but yell, "Thea Scott, how could you be so ungrateful?<br /> "It was with our money that you could live such a good life and study abroad! Shouldn't you return our kindness?"<br /> "Can you stop flattering yourself? Have I ever spent a penny from your family in the past eight years? I was admitted to an abroad university through my own effort.<br /> "Are you sure you want to bring this up? How about I give the president of that university a call? Or you can go to the bank to check if you have transferred a penny to me."<br /> Thea calmly retorted. The Scott family didn't take her in until she was fifteen. She was aware that her mother had spent her last years to make that happen.<br /> Although Thea was hated and even abused by the Scotts, she gritted her teeth and held on.<br /> She would rather go to boarding schools than stay at the Scotts' place.<br /> She studied hard and got free tuition and scholarships to support her study and life.<br /> She had wanted to stay away from the Scott family by going abroad, but to her astonishment, the Scotts lied that her grandmother fell sick and needed her to come back.<br /> It was totally a trap.<br /> Thea's half-brother offended someone he couldn't afford to and needed her to clean up his mess by marrying that person.<br /> How ridiculous!<br /> None of them had the right to decide her fate.<br /> Her voice successfully attracted many people's attention.<br /> Seeing this, Thea raised her voice and continued, "Ryan made a mistake, yet you forced me to marry a strange man to make up for it. We are living in a law-governed society. Don't I have the right to decide on my own life?<br /> "Mrs. Helen Scott, though I'm just your stepdaughter, I'm not such an eyesore of yours that you are so eager to marry me off, right?"<br /> As soon as Thea said that, those onlookers instantly understood what was going on.<br /> At the same time, they began to defend Thea and even accused Helen of being vicious.<br /> Helen had never been treated like that before. She hurriedly stood next to Roger and stamped her feet in anger. "Hubby, look what she did"<br /> Thea looked on coldly, and before Roger could speak, she cut in, "Dad, I know you have a son and a daughter with Helen, so you don't like me anymore. I could understand that.<br /> "I don't want any property of the Scott family, and I won't step into your house again. Please don't meddle in my life. I can't agree to your request. Please forgive me."<br /> After that, Thea turned around and took the opportunity to leave.<br /> Roger glared in anger when he saw Thea running away.<br /> "Thea Scott, come back! Come back, beetch!"<br /> His cursing words provoked even stronger indignation among the onlookers. They all defended Thea and blocked the door.<br /> They pointed at Roger and Helen and swore non-stop.<br /> Roger couldn't bear it and had to close the door.<br /> Helen had never expected Thea to become so tough after the latter studied abroad.<br /> Thinking that it would be hard to explain themselves to the Raven family, Helen asked worriedly, "Hubby, what should we do now? The Raven family is pressing us to give them Thea."<br /> Roger was very annoyed, too. "I won't let anything happen to our son."<br /> In the blink of an eye, he came up with an idea.<br /> He dialed a number at once.<br /> Since Thea had returned home, she certainly would visit her mother's grave.<br /> She placed a bunch of pink roses, her mother's favorite flowers, in front of the tombstone.<br /> Staring at her mother's photo with a smile, she said, "Mom, I'm sorry that I didn't come back to visit you these years. You are not angry with me, are you?<br /> "Don't worry. I'm fine. You have to take good care of yourself, understand?"<br /> Thea had so many things to tell her mother and wanted to share her interesting abroad life with her, to find some peace of mind.<br /> She knew that she could not leave Sherpole in a short time.<br /> This time, she had to settle the things between her and the Scott family once and for all, lest something like that happened again.<br /> "Mom, I'll come and visit you in another day, okay?"<br /> Suddenly, a voice broke the silence.<br /> "Tut-tut. You resemble your mother a lot. But you are much prettier, Thea."<br /> <br /> ##2.Chapter 2 Helping Her Out<br /> Thea looked warily to the left.<br /> There, she saw three men, and the leader among them was wearing a fancy shirt with a cigarette between his lips. He looked like a thug.<br /> He didn't give the impression of being a good person.<br /> However, this was a cemetery.<br /> Who would be so bored as to come there to hit on girls?<br /> "Who are you?" Thea reached into her bag and grabbed the pepper spray, glaring at them with narrowed eyes.<br /> "Your future husband," the man said with a smile and threw the lit cigarette on the tombstone next to him.<br /> Seeing this, Thea shot him an angry stare.<br /> Even though she didn't know whose tombstone it was beside her mother's, the man's behavior was utter disrespect to the person buried there.<br /> "I don't care who you are. Please show your respect. This is a cemetery. Pick up your cigarette," Thea yelled at him.<br /> Unexpectedly, the man laughed out loud. "We are not married yet, and you already began to tell me what to do, honey. If I get you laid here, your mother will be happy to see that you got a man, won't she?"<br /> Hearing these disgusting words, Thea flew into a rage.<br /> "Who the hell are you!"<br /> "Hmm? Didn't Roger tell you?"<br /> Thea was confused.<br /> Associating what happened at the hospital with this thug-like man, she realized something.<br /> The man rubbed his chin with an extremely obscene expression on his face.<br /> Thea suddenly realized that it was Roger who told this man that she was there.<br /> That was why that man came there.<br /> Even an animal would not hurt its child.<br /> But Roger was so cruel to Thea.<br /> Thea would bear this hatred in her mind forever.<br /> "Sweetheart, let's have some fun together. We should be quiet at the resting place of those buried down here." The man pounced at Thea as he spoke.<br /> Thea quickly took out the pepper spray and sprayed it directly in the man's face.<br /> "Ahhhh!"<br /> The man knelt on the ground in pain and covered his face.<br /> "Mr. Raven, are you alright?"<br /> "Go get that beetch! Get her! I'll kill you if I can't fvck her!"<br /> Thea turned pale and turned to run.<br /> These two bodyguards quickly chased after her.<br /> Thea was very panicked, but she knew that she had to calm down. There had to be security guards at this cemetery, so she just needed to keep running until she found them.<br /> 'Right!<br /> Security guards,' she thought.<br /> Bang!<br /> Caught off guard, Thea bumped into a man's arms.<br /> She lost her balance, and her mind went blank. She thought she would fall to the ground.<br /> But to her surprise, the man wrapped his arm around her waist and helped her to regain her balance.<br /> "Mr. Howard."<br /> "I'm fine." Thea heard the man say in a low and pleasant voice.<br /> The next second, the man let go of her.<br /> She immediately came to her senses. When she saw the bodyguards running after her, she grabbed the man's arm subconsciously and begged him. "Sir, please help me. Please help. I will return the favor if you help me this time."<br /> "Hey, don't meddle in. Give that woman to me."<br /> Thea hid behind Mr. Howard, and smelling his woody cologne, she managed to calm down for a while.<br /> She felt helpless.<br /> All her friends were abroad, so she couldn't call any of them for help.<br /> She had no one to turn to in Sherpole.<br /> "Are you really going to return the favor?" Mr. Howard asked.<br /> His voice was so charming that Thea's heart skipped a beat at it. She raised her brows and looked at him, stunned to find that he looked so handsome with deep-set eyes. He had an air of aloofness about him and looked like a god of Greek mythology.<br /> About 6'2 feet, he was wearing a suit, his skin tanned.<br /> This moment, he gave the impression of being a dangerous and aggressive playboy.<br /> But the next second, he seemed to be a fragile intellectual.<br /> This puzzled Thea. She chilled out and replied, "Yes, you have my words."<br /> She could do anything just to get rid of Roger's control and the thug's harassment.<br /> "Deal with them," Mr. Howard said in an intimidating tone.<br /> The men behind him got rid of the two bodyguards in minutes.<br /> Thea breathed a sigh of relief. She was lucky to get help. Though she knew very well that Mr. Howard was no ordinary man, she was grateful that he helped her.<br /> "Beetch! Where are you off to?"<br /> It was the thug's voice.<br /> Thea tensed up. "How did you offend him?" Mr. Howard asked her.<br /> Thea replied through her teeth, "My half-brother offended him, and my father wanted me to clean up the mess by marrying this man."<br /> "You don't want to marry him?"<br /> "Of course I don't."<br /> "I've just done you a favor. If you want me to help you deal with this man, you will owe me another favor, but you've used up your bargaining chip."<br /> Thea was stunned by the words for a few seconds.<br /> 'What did he mean?<br /> 'Does he want to take advantage of me in this situation?' she wondered.<br /> "Wh-what do you mean?" Thea was resigned. Now that she was in a dangerous situation, she had no other choice even if she saw through the man's intention.<br /> She had just escaped from one trap and now fell into another.<br /> "Marry me, and I'll resolve the trouble for you," Mr. Howard said.<br /> He said he would do it for her, not to help her.<br /> Thea gritted her teeth and found his request ridiculous.<br /> How dare he even say that?<br /> Unexpectedly, Mr. Howard added in a casual tone, "The Raven family is very powerful in Sherpole. You will be in grave trouble since you offended them."<br /> Thea closed her eyes. Judging by how Roger was scared of the Raven family and desperate to marry her off, she knew her family had offended someone they couldn't afford to.<br /> She gritted her teeth and agreed. "Fine! I'll marry you."<br /> <br /> ##3.Chapter 3 Going Back On Her Words?<br /> As soon as Thea finished speaking, the thug who chased after her was taken down.<br /> It happened so quickly that he didn't even have a clear glance at the man standing by Thea.<br /> Seeing this, Thea couldn't help but feel worried. "Didn't you say that the Raven family was very powerful? Now that you beat him, won't you get into trouble?"<br /> "Who told you that the Ravens were the only powerful ones in Sherpole?"<br /> Thea compressed her lips.<br /> When the thug who just got beaten up was dragged to Mr. Howard, he wanted to swear but stopped with fear when he recognized him.<br /> "Mr.-Mr. Howard!"<br /> The thug had never expected to meet Derrick, the third son of the Howard family, at the cemetery!<br /> What rotten luck he had!<br /> The thug's scared face convinced Thea of Derrick's words.<br /> "I didn't know you were here, Mr. Howard. Please forgive me. This girl is my fiancee, and we had a quarrel just now. Please don't misunderstand it. What I said is true."<br /> As soon as he finished speaking, the man who grabbed him hit him in the belly with his knee.<br /> It hurt so much that he went down on his knees.<br /> "How dare you try to touch my girl?"<br /> "What? She is your girl? That's not possible. She just returned from abroad, and I never heard that you married a Scott. Or..."<br /> The thug went pale when he heard Derrick's words.<br /> He cursed Roger silently for like a thousand times.<br /> In his eyes, Roger tricked him and got him in trouble.<br /> "I really didn't know it, Mr. Howard. I didn't know she was your girl."<br /> The thug was scared out of his wits. His family was rich, but not as awesome as the Howard family.<br /> Compared with the Howard family, the Raven family was nothing.<br /> Just at this moment, someone ran down from above the hill.<br /> "Mr. Howard, the stuff in front of your parents' tombstone caught on fire, and a part of their photos was burned. We found a half cigarette there."<br /> The words immediately reminded Thea of who threw the cigarette there.<br /> The thug on the ground trembled all over in fear.<br /> Derrick was keen enough to notice the man's guilty look. He lowered his eyes and asked in an icy voice, "Why are you looking so scared?"<br /> "I-I'm not."<br /> "Was it you who set the fire?" Derrick asked, but his voice was certain.<br /> "No, no..."<br /> Derrick tilted his head and asked Thea, "What do you think?"<br /> "It's him!"<br /> The thug immediately apologized again and again. "Mr. Howard, I didn't know it was your parents' tombstone. I really didn't know that. Please forgive me, Mr. Howard."<br /> "Teach him a lesson and send him back to his family. Tell the Raven family that they owe me an explanation!" Derrick said casually.<br /> The thug knew that he was done for.<br /> Since he had offended the Howard family, his family couldn't make it up no matter how hard they tried.<br /> In the car.<br /> Thea held her breath with fixed attention. The whole thing happened so quickly, and now, when she calmed down and thought about it, she realized she had fallen into Derrick's trap.<br /> She was not familiar with those rich and powerful families in Sherpole.<br /> But she had heard a thing or two about the Howard family.<br /> She didn't understand why Derrick, who had such an extraordinary background, would use foul means to make her marry him.<br /> It was a bit absurd.<br /> She couldn't figure it out.<br /> "Where is your birth certificate?"<br /> "It's in my bag." Though Thea had moved in the Scotts' place, she had brought all her important documents with her just in case when she traveled far.<br /> However, she didn't expect she would really need to use them.<br /> "Go to the City Hall."<br /> Thea hadn't taken Derrick's words seriously before, and when she heard that they were going to the City Hall, she panicked.<br /> She looked at Derrick nervously. "You know nothing about me, Mr. Howard. Isn't it a bad idea to get married so hastily?"<br /> "Do you think I fell in love with you at first sight, so I want you to marry me?"<br /> Thea looked into his eyes, but she couldn't read the emotions in them. His voice was gentle but detached.<br /> "Why?"<br /> "Just think about your situation. You can get benefits from me. If we get married, it will do good for both of us. Do you understand?" Derrick said slowly, his long legs crossed.<br /> He talked like marriage was just a business deal, not something important that needed his careful consideration.<br /> "Are you going back on your word?" Derrick asked in a cold voice.<br /> Thea shook her head. "No."<br /> "Good."<br /> Derrick gave a bland response.<br /> The car fell into silence once more.<br /> They arrived at the City Hall, and in less than five minutes, they came out with their marriage certificates.<br /> Thea held hers tightly, only to see Derrick threw his to the driver without even looking at it.<br /> She pursed her lips. She now believed that Derrick was telling the truth.<br /> He married her just because they needed each other's help. Their marriage was all about mutual benefits.<br /> But now...<br /> The marriage certificate dazzled her.<br /> Thea never thought she would suddenly get married when she came back to handle the affairs related to the Scott family.<br /> She took a deep breath and wondered what the Scott family would think if they found out that she married a Howard.<br /> At the Begonia Manor.<br /> The manor was Derrick's personal property.<br /> Thea was not interested in the luxurious exterior of this building. She couldn't collect herself from the fact that she got married.<br /> When she followed Derrick into the house, a famous painting hanging in the entryway caught her attention.<br /> It was only natural that she had an impression of this painting.<br /> She was an auctioneer bestowed with a pair of white gloves when she worked abroad, and the painting was exactly an item she auctioned.<br /> Back then, the painting was sold for three billion dollars.<br /> And the buyer was quite mysterious.<br /> Thea never expected the mysterious buyer to be Derrick.

My brother was Jacob’s best friend and the leader of our little pack of friends. Since I was his twin, we looked very similar. Colt often got teased since I am the female version of him and extremely sought after by the guys. However, Colt was four minutes older than me so he got the Alpha’s position. Leaving me to do what I please and that happens to be tattooing. I started tattooing around 15 years old and Colt and I would be 18 here soon. I was on my last session with Jacob. “I’m excited to get this done. I have a great plan this weekend and I want it to look good.” Jacob had a new flavor every weekend, to the point that I didn’t bother learning their names. We went to a high school that was part human and part werewolves. However, three different packs attended the school so you had to be careful. There was us, the Blue Fang pack. Then the Midnight River pack and finally the Dark Moon pack. For the most part, the packs got along but there was still always a sense of authority that was tested. “Don’t worry, I’ll make sure you look good. Can’t be representing our pack badly.” “Thanks, Ice.” Ice was my nickname. I could have the pick of whoever I wanted. However, Colt usually put a stop to it. Jacob was leaning back in the chair as I finished setting everything up when my brother and the rest of his pose came in. “You skip the last hour?” Colt asked me. Rolling my eyes, I leaned over and started working on Jacob. He flinched at first and growled at me. “You are not going to want to do that,” I warned him. “I wasn’t ready.” “Ice, I asked a question.” Colt sat down in a chair. Ace was who I wanted but was forever untouchable to me. “I heard you. I didn’t want to go.” Dripping my gun into the blue ink, I kept going. “Why not? Something happens?” Colt’s voice became dangerous. These three guys and my best friend Emmy, were a group. Gang might be too much of a word but no one messed with us. We made sure of it. Thankfully, the door opened and Emmy walked in. Jacob had the hots for her but she denied him so often that he would go out with these other girls to make her jealous. However, all it did was repulse her. I gave her a grateful nod. She was the most perky person and was one of the best female warriors… under me. “How’s it going?” “Just finishing up this tattoo,” I said with a smile as I kept going. “That looks amazing.” Emmy came over and looked at it as I leaned back and cleaned it off with a paper towel. The bell rang again, this time, the person entering was someone from another pack. “Hello, I heard this was the place to go for a tattoo?” We all looked at him. It was his jeans that caught my attention. Shaking off the initial reaction, “What are you looking for?” “I was told to ask for a Chris. They were the best.” “That would be me,” I said with an edge. Most people in my school called me Kris, and my close friends called me Ice. Very few people called me Kristen. The shock was clear but he managed to regain himself. “I was hoping to get a piece like this.” Pulling out a massive drawing, he walked up to me so I could look at it. “Where do you want it?” I asked. It was a whole mural of a wolf howling at the moon. “My back. I want it to cover the whole thing. I just got back from a five-year training and I want to get inked.” “What is your name?” Colt asked. The stranger looked over at him. “Name is Alec. Son of Alpha Marc from the Dark Moon Pack. He walked over to shake Colt’s hand. Colt stood up. I got a little nervous, as Colt doesn’t have the best reputation. “Colt Jefferys. Son of Alpha Brian of Blue Fang pack. That is my twin sister, Kristen Jefferys.” Colt nodded towards me. “Emmy, Future Gamma Jacob, and Future Beta Ace.” “I don’t mean to step on toes coming here. I am finishing my last year in school here before transferring.” I couldn’t stop myself. “Transferring where?” Colt shot me a look but I ignored him. Alec gave me a half smile. “More training.” “That piece will cost around $1,500 and take me a few sessions. Depends on your pain tolerance.” I said without looking at them. Instead, I started up again on Jacob. I just needed to finish the shading and I was done. “Do you have references?” Alec asked. Rolling my eyes, I pointed at the book on the stand. Most guys wanted to see my work before they agreed to anything. I was used to it but still annoyed me. Alec took a few minutes and flipped through the pages. I have always been able to read people extremely easily. Colt said it was because I was an Alpha Female. Either way, Alec was mysterious, and dangerous yes but not at the same time. “Okay, I am done,” I told Jacob. Putting some soap on the tattoo, I washed it before cleaning it off and applying a healing tape. “You know the drill. Keep the females from using fingernails this time.” I glared at him. “That was one time!” Jacob got up and looked in the mirror. In the meantime, I washed my hands and grabbed my camera to take a picture. “Hold still,” I said moving him in the light. Click! “Perfect.” I knew they had to leave but I could tell Colt didn’t want to leave me alone with Alec. “I’m fine, bro,” I said in the mind-link. Putting gloves on, I started cleaning up my mess. “I don’t trust him.” “Emmy will be with me and Dad will teach you a lesson if you are late again.” “Fine. I want to know the exact minute he is gone.” It was a command but we both knew that didn’t work on me. “Yes, sir,” I said sarcastically. The three boys got up and headed towards the door. “I shouldn’t have to tell you to treat my sister appropriately,” Colt said to Alec. Alec’s eyes narrowed at the threat but didn’t act on it. “I don’t make it a habit of disrespecting a person.” “Ice.” He looked at me and nodded before leaving. “Sorry about that. Have you made a decision?” I asked as I threw away all my used items. “Yeah, I would like to book it.” Spraying down the chair, I whipped it clean. “Are you the only artist here?” He asked as I was making my way up to the counter. “Yes. This is my shop and mine only. Maybe one day I will expand.” Flipping open my calendar, I saw I had an opening tomorrow. “I can do tomorrow at 4pm. We will see how much you can sit through and go from there and future appointments.” “Okay. I train in the morning so that will work.” “Here are the forms you need to fill out. Leave what you have sketched and come back with them filled out and the cash.” I handed him an envelope, and he handed me the picture. “What are these forms?” Alec asked. “Saying you understand who I am, what pack I am from. You are doing this freely and all the small print stuff. This is a legitimate business that I file taxes on. Just the same as the packs do.” “Okay, then. See you tomorrow.” Alec headed towards the door. “Alright,” I said walking out from behind the counter. I didn’t have any appointments this afternoon. Emmy and I were going to go for a run and hang out. As soon as he was out the door, Emmy started in. “Colt would literally take him down,” I said as I grabbed my purse. It was the beginning of summer and if it wasn’t still 80 degrees at 7pm. I had driven my motorcycle and so did Emmy. “Wouldn’t that be a dream match?” Walking out, I locked up my shop. Looking at the design, I couldn’t have been happier with what I have accomplished. Emmy walked to her bike and I stood in front of mine. My purse was a backpack style so after adding my keys and stuff to it, I grabbed my helmet and put it on. It wasn’t until my legs were straddling my bike that I noticed Alec across the street, looking directly at me. It gave me goosebumps. “Something like that,” I said. I knew he could hear us now. “Come on, I need to run off some energy.” Starting my engine, I waited till she was ready before we rode past him. His eyes stayed on me the whole time. There was something in them that I didn’t understand. Something primal. Chapter 2 “Where have you girls been?” As soon as our bikes pulled up to the pack house, my mother was already jumping down my throat. For a Luna, she was especially over bearing and always nagging on me about something I did wrong. I was never good enough in her eyes. Usually, she always believes I am wrong without even hearing my side. Thankfully, Colt can see through her. She is technically our step-mother as our mother died giving birth to us. Dad mated with her not even a year later. Colt was a spinning image of our dad. Even though we looked similar, I looked more like my mother growing up. “Just finished up at the shop. We are going to go for a run and meet some friends for supper.” I said stopping in front of her. “I don’t think so! You haven’t finished any of the work that I put on the list for you!” A little vein threatened to burst in her forehead. “I did it this morning! Before school! Did you even check before you accuse me of something?” I yelled, instantly pissed. “What is going on here?” Dad, Colt and the boys walked out of the pack house. “Once again, she is ignoring her duties I gave her and being disrespectful! This is the last time!” She raised her hand to slap me across the face. Fortunately, Colt stepped in and caught her hand before she do it. “You will not hit her.” Colt said with narrow eyes. “You little brat!” “Ann, enough. Kris, did you do your chores?” Dad asked as he folded his hands.. “Yes, sir. I did them this morning before school.” “She is lying!” Luna Ann shrieked. “No, I’m not!” I yelled back as I grabbed my phone. “See?” I held up my email to show my dad. Intentionally, walking around Ann as I didn’t want to show her. “Looks like she did it.” Dad nodded. “What are you doing this evening?” “Emmy and I were going to go for a run and then meet the guys at the pizza parlor.” “That is what I told you.” Colt stood up for me. “Okay. Have a good run.” Dad said handing me back my phone. “I also emailed you the report from today. I should let you know that Alpha Marc’s son came in and asked for a full back tattoo. I gave him the papers and he is coming in tomorrow to get it started.” Dad looked at me for a minute. “What time?” “4pm, sir.” “Okay, I will swing by sometime.” Dad nodded and turned to leave. “That’s it? No punishment for being disrespectful?” Ann chased after Dad. “What did you do to get her fired up like that?” Colt asked. “We literally just pulled up. She was waiting here when we got here. I can’t wait to get out of this place. Come our 18th birthday, I am gone.” I said to Colt as Emmy and I headed to our rooms to change. “Running away isn’t the answer.” “What is going to change? You won’t be Alpha for another seven years. Dad already said you will get it once you are 25 and not sooner. I’m not waiting around for seven more years of this.” “What if your mate is here?” Colt asked. “I hope he will like to travel, I will be traveling the world for seven years.” When I got out, I grabbed a hair tie and loosely tied it back into a pony tail. “Look, I know you don’t like it but what else do you want me to do? A girl can only handle so much with no one in her corner.” “I’m in your corner.” Colt said. “And I admire you for it but you know you can only do so much. You aren’t there to stop the physical hits.” “I hate that.” Colt looked down at his shoes. “It’s fine. You have hit me harder than that.” I joked as I grabbed my phone and ear buds. “Not that same thing.” Colt’s eyes narrowed. “I don’t have any options.” “Ready?” Emmy bounced in my room. “Yes!” I was happy she was here. “See you boys!” “We will be at the pizza parlor in an hour!” Jacob yelled after us. “Got it!” As we ran out of the packhouse, I could still hear Ann going off to my dad about me when we passed his office. His door wasn’t fully shut but I didn’t want to risk getting into trouble, so we kept going. “What path?” Emmy asked as she fixed her air-pods. “Let’s run down town today. We can take the long way to the parlor.” Center was the name of the town that all of the packs used. It wasn’t part of anyone’s territory and it’s where our school is located. “Sounds good.” We took off running at the same speed. Our long legs stride out. With each step, my worries and anxiety fade away. Everything that was stressing me out was gone. Just the sound of my feet pounding on the hard Earth. Even the music playing in my ear drifted to the background. It was a total of ten miles until we hit the town. Once our feet hit the old brick road, we stopped running to catch our breath. “That felt like it lasted forever.” Emmy was really winded. I was winded but not near as bad. “Eating too much candy?” I teased. The pizza parlor was only three blocks in town. It was a popular hangout for high school age kids. Even the humans gathered around. So it was no surprise when we got there that it was packed. Looking around, I saw Jacob with his arm around a girl in the far corner. Weaving between people, we made our way over to our group. “About time you girls show up!” The girl on Jacob’s arm looked us up and down. She was human and already annoyed me. “Gotta keep this figure up. Where is my drink?” I looked around and didn’t see anything. “Colt hasn’t gotten here yet.” Ace was sitting across from Jacob. There was a girl trying to get his attention. I smirked at him and lifted an eyebrow. He shook his head at me, telling me he wasn’t feeling it. “I think there is a seat over there, why don’t you girls go over there?” The human girl under Jacob’s arm bravely said. Jacob and Ace shared a look. “Excuse me?” I said like I didn’t hear her. “Whoa! Just go get some drinks and order three large pizzas for us. I’ll handle it.” Jacob answered quickly. “Yes, please do.” I said before turning around. Emmy stayed behind as I walked up to the counter. I wasn’t paying attention to who was in front of me when when they stepped back and landed on my foot. I wasn’t happy. “The fu-” He looked back and looked down at me holding my toe before looking at my body. I felt butterflies in my stomach. “My apolog-” “Watch where you are walking!” A girl came up to us and wrapped her arm around Alec’s waist. “He stepped on me!” I said standing up. She was a wolf and I had no problem putting her in her place. “Angela, this is Alpha Brian’s daughter, Kris.” Her voice changed but not her attitude or the hatred in her eyes. “Nice to meet you.” She said through her teeth. Not even sticking her hand out. “Yeah.” I said. The counter was clear so I walked around them. “Hey, Kris! Usual?” The cashier was from our pack and in my grade. Her name is Wendy. “Yes, please!” “Alpha Colt’s tab?” “That would be great.” “She thinks she owns the place.” I heard whispered behind me. Wendy’s eyes got wide as I turned around. “Let’s try this again.” I pushed my aura out on her. I kept it light since there are humans around. “My name is Kris and as the daughter of Alpha Brian, I would expect some respect. If that is too hard for you, feel free to step outside and we can handle it.” “No need for that. I will handle her disrespect. Please accept my apologizes on her behalf.” Alec looked murderous as he held her upper arm like a child. She was still bending her neck in submission. Pulling back my aura, I stepped back so the audience we had gained, looked away. “I don’t give second changes.” I said looking directly in Alec’s eyes. “Noted.” “Um, Kris?” Wendy softly called behind me. “Thank you for the glasses.” I said with a smile. Taking them, I went to fill them up. Most people know me and know of my reputation so it’s not often I am messed with. “Need help?” Turning, I saw Colt walking up behind me with his mate, Kara. “Please.” I said as I handed them the glasses. “What is up with Alpha Alec?” Colt asked. “She was being disrespectful. I told her to step outside and he said he would handle it so I let him handle it.” We were walking back to the table. The round table that Jacob picked was a little tight so we were sitting shoulder to shoulder. Somehow, I got pushed against Ace. He lifted his arm and rested on the boot behind me. It wasn’t a romantic gesture but more of a necessity so we could eat. “How was your run?” The girl on Jacob’s arm asked me, shyly. “It was good. Helps me clear my head.” I said, making nice. I could clearly see Jacob relax at my tone. “I wish I enjoyed running but it’s never been for me.” She took a sip of her drink. “So, Kris, how is business?” Kara asked me. We aren’t super close since I don’t think she will last either. Colt gets bored and honestly, until he finds his mate or tells me he actually loves them, I don’t get too attached. “Great. Already ahead of last year.” The pizza arrived then. “I said three larges!” Jacob said looking at it all. “You three men will eat a large to yourself.” Colt usually orders five larges and they will always get ate fully. Not sure why Jacob only wanted three. The gang started chatting and I stared off into space. “I need to get out for a second.” I said. Colt, Kara and Emmy slide out so I could get out too. “Do you need me to go?” Ace asked in my mind-link. “No. Probably wants to make sure I don’t take her down.” I felt this disapproval from him. It never went past that but he always had a slight jealousy when it came to me. Walking out, I spotted Alec sitting on his bike. “Wasn’t sure if you were going to come out or not.” He said. The hairs on my arms were instantly raised. Chapter 3 I chose to ignore that comment. “What can I do for you?” “Angela can be silly but she is transferring too and I don’t want there to be problems at school.” I almost felt disappointed...almost. “As long as she knows her place. If not, I’m sure she will find it soon enough.” It was not a threat but a promise. Alex nodded his head in understanding. “Why did your brother call you Ice?” “That name is reserved for close friends.” “That didn’t answer my question.” “I’m not exactly the warm and fuzzy type.” I kept it vague. “Ice?” I guess Ace was done waiting. Alex didn’t bristle up, merely glanced over and studied his body language. “No. See you tomorrow.” I said before turning back around. Ace held the door open for me. Alec’s bike peeled out as Ace shut the door. “What was that about?” Colt asked, clearly unhappy. “She is transferring to and he doesn’t want a scene.” I shrugged. “What did you tell him?” Jacob asked in a not so friendly tone. “As long as she knows her place, we are good. That I would hate to remind her of it.” “Your reputation should be enough to keep her away.” Emmy laughed. “One little fight and I am the school bad girl.” I sighed. “It wasn’t one fight and you put her into a coma.” Colt smirked. “She needed to know her place.” I was not hungry but I didn’t want to go home. “Let’s head out.” Jacob drank the last of his soda. “You girls need a ride?” Colt offered. “No, I want to walk home.” “Its getting dark out..” Ace looked out the window. “Thanks, dad. I wasn’t aware.” Annoyed, I got up and started out the door. Emmy was quick to follow me. “You know you will be in trouble if you are late.” Emmy frowned. She was right but I hated Ann. “I’ll be in trouble even if I am early.” I hear the boy’s bikes come up behind us. “Come on, sis. Get on.” Colt held out a hand for me. Sighing, I gave in and got on. Emmy got on Ace’s bike and we took off for the pack house. Colt dropped us off at the front and he went around to the garage. As soon as we walked in the front door, something moved from the side. SLAP! The sting of a hand slapping across my face caused my head to whip to the right. I was caught so off guard that I staggered a little. “How dare you disrespect me!” Luna Ann shrieked. Pure hatred filled my eyes as I looked at her. I wasn’t sure what came over me as I walked up to her and returned the slap. However, mine was more powerful and she fell to the floor crying. “WHAT IS GOING IN HERE?” dad roared. I knew I was in trouble but I didn’t regret it. “I literally walked in the door and she slapped me! I can’t take this anymore dad! I am done being disrespected by someone who isn’t even my mother! I hate it here! Come my birthday, I am gone and you won’t ever see me again. So punish me as you want but I don’t care anymore!” The boys came in the room as I ranted. Tears ran down my face. Not even waiting for a response, I ran up to my room, slamming the door shut. My body was buzzing and I needed to hit something. Thankfully, Colt installed a punching bag to help me focus my anger on it. My mind went dark as I punched it over and over again. It wasn’t until two massive arms wrapped around me and pinned me against him that I came back. My knuckles were bloody and my arms ached. “Ice! Calm down!” Colt had me tight against him “I’m so sorry, sis.” My breathing leveled out and my eye sight focused. Jacob and Ace where here too. “Emmy went home.” Ace read my mind. “Take a shower and have a rest.” Colt said, letting me go. Ace came up and took my chin in his hand. He moved it to look at my lip. “It’s nothing.” I said, jerking my head out of his hand. “I convinced dad to let you cool down. You need to see him in the morning.” “Okay.” I was grateful for that. “Thanks.” The boys nodded as they left my room. My phone dinged. Not even looking at it. The warm water burned against my knuckles but I welcomed the pain. The water eventually ran cold and I got out. Drying off, and putting jammies on. My phone dinged again. This time, I looked at it. Emmy: You okay? Me: Yeah, I’m okay. Emmy: don’t believe you but we can talk tomorrow. Maybe Ace can ease your mind?! Me: goodnight.... She did get me to smile as I fell asleep instantly. The next morning, I woke up early to get ready. Ann slept in so I knew dad would be alone in his office. Braiding my hair to the side, I applied a light layer of makeup to try to hide the light bruise on my chin. Knock! Knock! Knock! “Come in” dad’s voice boomed “Hi dad.” I said as I walked in and took a seat. Since it was just him and I, I didn’t have to show all the respectful practices. “Kris, what’s going on?” “She ruins my life. Just because I look like mom. All I did was walk in the door and she attacked me. I know I shouldn’t have hit her but I’m done being a doormat.” My voice cracked but I held firm. “Colt said you are leaving when you turned 18.” “Yes. I can’t live with her anymore.” “You know you can’t go around and disrespect Ann.” Dad started. “For once, can you just be my dad? Actually hear me and listen to me?” I interrupted. “Kris, you know I am always here for you.” Standing up, “Alpha, can you please just give me my punishment and let me get to school?” If he wasn’t going to be the dad I needed, I wasn’t going to address him as such. “Don’t do that.” He shook his head in disappointment. A knock saved me from answering. The door opened without dad answering. It was Beta Andrew. “Sorry, I can come back...” “I need to get to school.” I said looking at dad. “We aren’t done talking.” He said as I turned to leave. “Yes, sir.” Rushing out of the office, I went straight to the garage. Getting on my bike, I took off. Not waiting for anyone else. I felt free with the wind in my hair. In my hast to leave, I forgot my helmet. Not like I don’t heal quickly. My knuckled were scabbed over but still looked angry. Since I left so early, there weren’t many cars in the school parking lot. Parking my bike, I got off and went to the picnic table and sat down. Plugging my ear phones in, I blasted some old rock songs and got lost in my drawings. Since I was a tattoo artist, I liked to have a bunch of my own work available for people to chose from. This one was of a Phoenix. The wings were spread wide with fire around him. I was so lost in the shadowing that I didn’t see or feel Ace approaching. “No!” I yelled as he tapped my shoulder, causing me to jump. He sat down across from me. I saw his eyes examine my lip and my knuckles. It made me slightly uncomfortable but loved as well. “You okay?” “Always am.” I said as I out my music away. “Kristen.” Anytime someone uses my full name, I know they are serious. Setting my pencil down, I looked at him in the eyes. “What do you want me to say? I’m lovely? Couldn’t be better? I’m flat out miserable? Is it too much to ask to ask for a dad who will take my side for once?” I was starting to get worked up again. Ace reached over and took my hand. “It’s okay. I wish I could take your pain away.” It sounded so intimate. “Seven more years till Colt takes over.” I sighed, steering the conversation away from us. “Your birthday is coming up. What if your mate is in this pack?” We had talked about us being mates but it didn’t feel right. “School will be over in a few months. Maybe he will want a vacation.” “What if he can’t take one?” He was talking about himself and he was right. Once Colt turned 18, his alpha training would sore and I’d barely see him. That meant Jacob and Ace too. “I’ll send postcards.” I hadn’t realized the school yard was filling up. The first bell rang, telling us we had five minutes before class started. Ace frowned as we stood up and made our way in. I felt eyes on me, as I looked back and saw Alec looking at me. Angela was clinging to him. I wanted to punch her in the face but instead, I turned around and went to class. The morning went by slowly. The teachers lectures were boring. I’m in all the advanced classes so I really needed to pay attention but I couldn’t. My last class, Advanced Calculus, was all I had left before lunch. The door opened and Alec walked in with another guy I didn’t recognize. Alec looked around and saw me before taking a seat on the other side of the room. His friend sat beside him. I sat towards the back as I had a hard time focusing in the front. It bothered me not knowing what was happening behind me so I would sit in the back. Occasionally, I would feel his eyes in me but I tried to focus. The teacher was going over last semesters progress so I pulled out my sketch pad and kept working on the Phoenix. Most people didn’t know my IQ was that of a genius. Three years ago, I tested out of high school but I didn’t want to be a freak so I chose to stay and go year by year. All the teachers knew that so they didn’t call on me and didn’t worry when I skipped class. Not to mention they were all wolves and knew who I was. Dad and the other alphas commanded them to not tell a soul about my IQ. It wasn’t something I wanted to share. When the bell finally rang, the teacher called on me. “Miss Kris. Can you come see me for a second?” Everyone but Alec and his friend left. “Hello, Miss Simpson. I am Alec and this is Jasper. I wanted to introduce myself to you.” “That’s right. Alpha Marc’s son?” She looked at him “Yes, ma’am” “Nice to meet you. I will say that being the Alphas son doesn’t excuse missed homework.” She glared at him. I stood awkwardly off to the side. “Understood.” He was clearly annoyed but didn’t push it. “Miss Kris. Can I count of you again this year?” I had to smirk, “Yes, ma’am. Looking forward to it.” “Perfect. I’ll send you an email with details.” “Sounds good!” I said and left. “Wait!” Alec jogged to catch up with me. “Kris, this is Jasper. He will be my beta. Jasper, this is Alpha Brian’s daughter.” “Nice to meet you.” He said politely. I raised my eyebrow at his level of professionalism. “You too. If you would excuse me...” I turned to leave. My stomach was rumbling. “Still in for this afternoon?” Alec called out. “Yes, sir.” I said without looking back. I knew they were following me but I didn’t care. I wanted food. Chapter 4 The line wasn’t long so I was able to get my tray and find a seat rather quickly. The cafeteria was like all the rest. Each pack sat in their own corner and humans filled in the rest. “Ice!” Jacob called out and waved me over. “Girl, you don’t look too bad.” Emmy said looking at my lip. “I’ve had worse.” I shrugged. I felt safe here with them all. My own personal body guards. “Did you talk to dad?” Colt asked. “A little before Andrew came in” “What punishment did he give you?” Emmy asked looking nervous. “Nothing... yet.” The hamburger tasted bland but I welcomed the food. The conversation filtered to something else as my mind went to all the things I needed to do. “Kris, you in?” Ace asked, snapping me out if my thoughts. “What?” “Going to the club tomorrow.” Today was Friday and usually we go out on Saturday’s. “I don’t have a dress. You guys keep spilling your drinks in them!” Narrowing my eyes at them. “We can go shopping today!” Emmy clapped her hands together. “Can’t, I have a tattoo.” “It’s okay, I’ll go for us both. I know your size!” “Don’t you dare get me anything pink.” I warned as I pointed my knife at her. Everyone laughed and I actually felt myself relax a little. Going out always helped me relax and ignore my problems. All too soon, lunch was over. Standing up, I emptied my trap and went to my next class. None of my friends were in my classes. So I always sat by myself. This was a college level accounting class. In total, one three other students qualified to be in here. Until today. Alec walked in right as I sat down with Jasper in tow. Since class still had a few minutes, they sat next to me. “Are you in all the advanced classes?” Alec asked. “Yes.” “Why this one?” He pushed “I own my own shop and you wonder why I am in accounting?” Lifting an eyebrow at him. “What happened to your lip?” Jasper asked. Alec’s eyes instantly went to it and the anger in his eyes was clear. “Nothing.” “And your knuckles?” Jasper pushed. “Let’s get started!” Mr. Engle started taking, saving me from answering. “Before we begin, Ms. Kris, can I count on you this year?” He asked me. “It’s on my to-do list.” I confirmed. I felt Alec give me a sideways glance but otherwise, they left me alone. Thankfully, when class was over, the teacher wanted to speak with Alec so I was able to slip away undetected. That is, until 4pm when he will be in my shop. Which is in thirty minutes. Currently, I was sitting on my front desk chair. I had to take his drawing and move it to transfer paper. The guys hadn’t shown up yet and neither has my dad. I was just printing it out when the door opened. “Hello.” Alec and Jasper walked in the front door. I didn’t really uncomfortable about them. Maybe I should but I didn’t. “Hey, use the bathroom if you need to. Do you have the paperwork and money?” “Right here.” Alec placed the paperwork and the cash on the desk. “Perfect.” Taking the paperwork out, I looked it over to make sure his signature is where I needed it. Alec went to the restroom. “This place is yours?” Jasper asked as I finish counting the money. “Yup. Those are all my work.” Jasper was flipping through my book. “Impressive.” The door open and the guys walked in. “Colt, this is Jasper, Alec’s future beta. Jasper, this is my twin brother Colt. We are Alpha Brian’s kids. Then future beta Ace and gamma Jacob.” Jasper shook their hands when Alec walked back in. “Colt.” Alec greeted and shook their hands again. “Ready?” I asked Alec. “Yeah.” “Take your shirt off and lay face down.” He did as I asked and I started opening my tools. “How do you guys like it so far?” Colt was trying to make small talk. “Different but nice.” Jasper said. “Relax and take a seat.” I eyed all four of them. Alec snorted but his head was in the hole. Taking the stencil, I positioned it and pressed it down. Slowly peeling it back, I made sure it looked centered. “Go look in the mirror and see how you like it.” Alec got up and walked over to the 360 mirrors I had installed. “Looks good.” He laid back down and I got to work. To his credit, he barely flinched as I started. “Ice, did you get the emails from the teachers?” Colt asked me. “Yeah, two of them even asked me in class.” “Yeah, what was that about?” Jasper asked. I barely glanced up at him. “Miss Perfect over here has been in charge of organizing the school events for the last five years now.” Jacob always was bitter I was smarter than him. “Five years? You’re only a senior.” Jasper was confused. “Its really not a big deal. I excelled at school so I took over the events. I don’t do all the planning but most of it. I have assistants who do the leg work. I write the test, do the spelling bees, prom.” I shrugged. It was really me telling a handful of students what to do. “You have done this since 8th grade?” Alec asked. “Yeah. One of my many talents. Anyway. There is a spelling bee in a month that I needed to pick out words and prom is coming up. Plus our end of the school year prep rally.” “Ice, we need to head out, are you okay?” Colt asked in the mind link. “Yeah, I’m good.” I responded. They all stood up, “see you at supper.” Colt waved goodbye before leaving. Ace gave me one last look before he took off too. “I’ve known all those guys since we were born. Actually our birthdays are within a week of each others.” “So, how smart are you?” Jasper pried. “Excuse me?” I gave him a look that said how ridiculous he was for asking. “You are in all the advanced classes and do all that work...” “I’m a mysterious person.” The door opened and my dad walked in. “Hey, dad.” Jasper immediately stood up and Alec made a move to do the same. “Stay where you are.” Dad waved Alec off. He lowered himself back down but his body was stiff. Dad shook Jaspers hand. “Nice to meet you, Alpha Brian.” Jasper’s demeanor changed. “Relax boys. Just came to check on my daughter.” Dad walked up and looked at my work. “Nice piece. Who drew it?” “I did, sir.” Alec said with his head turned to the side. “How much longer you working today?” “Not sure. I’d like to get all the line work done before we call it.” I had most of it anyway. “Maybe some shading depending on his pain level.” “Okay. I brought you supper.” Dad lifted a bag and set it on my desk. “Thanks.” I said and kept working. “Don’t worry about coming to my office.” I stopped and looked up. Really? No punishment? “I shouldn’t have to tell you boys to be respectful.” “No sir.” Jasper answered. Dad nodded and walked out. “Can I order pizza to be delivered here?” Jasper asked. “Sure, address is on my business card but go outside and order. Shitty service in here.” Jasper nodded, taking a card, he went outside. As soon as he was gone, Alec turned to his side and touched my lip. It was both sexual and full of concern. “ Who did that?” I wasn’t going to spill family drama. “Nothing for you to worry about.” “I asked around and learned about your reputation.” I lifted an eyebrow at him. “Rumor is your dad hits you.” That honestly surprised me. Enough that my jaw dropped. “My dad has never once laid a hand on me in that manner.” I said it so with much conviction that Alec must have believed me. “Then your mom?” “She isn’t my mom. My mom died when I was little.” Grabbing his shoulder I tried to lay him down. He refused. “Do you need help?” “I’m fine. In case you haven’t noticed, my brother and his posse are protective enough.” Alec laid down after that. “That I did notice. So, are you with Ace?” “Like I said, no but not sure why you care.” “Just like to make sure I don’t step on toes” “Is Angela not your girl?” “A wanna be girl but not by me.” Alec grumbled. “So you allow girls to hang off you? Must like to play around. Let me guess, different flavor each week?” I said unimpressed. “No, actually. I am very picky in who I take on dates.” “How old are you?” “Turned 18 last month.” “No mate yet?” “Nope. Still looking.” “Are you though? Sounds like you are busy with training.” “This last training is only for a week and then I’ll be home for good.” Jasper walked back in. “Pizza is ordered. What are you guys talking about?” “When is your 18th birthday?” “Tomorrow, actually.” “Oh, happy early birthday then.” “Thanks, still trying to decide on what we are going to do.” Right on cue, Emmy walked in. “Look what I bought you!” She held up the skimpiest bubblegum pink dress I’ve ever seen. Alec turned to look and Jasper’s eyes about popped out of his head. “You better be kidding. I am not wearing that!” “Ha! Just the reaction I wanted. No, that’s my dress. This is yours.” “Much better.” I approved. “Where are you ladies going wearing those dresses?” Jasper asked. Maybe he is the play boy of the group. “To the club. Actually, I changed my mind, I want to go today, too.” Emmy said. “Okay.” I shrugged “Really, just like that?” “I didn’t get punished so yeah, lets go” “Seriously?” Emmy looked shocked. “Punished for what?” Jasper asked, his eyes narrowed “She slapped her...” “Emmy! Shut up!” I yelled. “Tell me.” Jasper walked up to Emmy and grabbed her chin softly and made her look at him. She was powerless at that moment. “Luna Ann.” “You did not!” Jasper asked, shocked. “She hit me first.” I muttered as I resumed working. Alec placed his hand on my knee and squeezed it. His thumb rubbed my thigh. This was all behind the table so Jasper and Emmy couldn’t see. “Pizza is here!” Jasper went outside to get it. Emmy went to the bathroom. As Jasper came back in, he looked weirdly at the bathroom door. “What’s wrong?” I asked. Alec raised up and looked at Jasper. “Dude, what is it?” “How old is Emmy?” “She is 18.” He frowned and sat his pizza down. “Dude?” Alec said again. “I think maybe she is my mate.” Alec and I looked at each other. “Why do you say that?” I asked. “Just the feeling I have. Alec, I think we are going out today.” Alec looked at me and back at him. “Girl, I brought makeup so we can get ready here and not go back to the pack house.” Emmy popped her head out. “Did you call Colt and tell him?” I asked. “Yeah, and they are meeting us since we have our bikes and that isn’t good with these dresses.” “You bring me shoes?” “I got it all, babe.” I opened a mind-link to my dad. “We are going out today.” “That’s what Colt said. Stay with him, be safe.” “Thanks, dad.” I said and cut the link.
