Chapter 2: He's no longer the same.

"Aria!" Ares kept on calling me as I ran to open the door about to exit the house angrily.

My eyes widen as I felt my brother pulled me back into the house and pushed the door allowing it to slam hard. My ears rang from the loud sound.

"Let me go!" I shouted at him as I turned around pulling my right hand away from him not wanting him to touch me.

Ares's upper body was sweaty, and he was only within his long black pant that was not zipped up properly nor was it button.

"Aria, it's not what you think it is," he tried to explain to me.

"I don't want to hear anything from you," I got angry with my brother for the first.

"You don't even know her!" I shouted angrily at him. I was so infuriated that he did not want to spend the day with me. Lately, he had become so busy training in becoming the alpha. I barely got to see him and now when he had the time, he ditches me in ramming his dick into a maid he does not even though. I thought my brother was a decent werewolf, but he was just like any other male wolf who could not control their dick whenever they see a beautiful young, she-wolf. And being the alpha one day he had all the advantage to get into any she-wolf pants.

I screwed my face as I saw the fast-tailed maid coming downstairs fixing her dress as she got close to us.

"I'm sorry," she apologized sadly to me.

"Let me handle this Natalia there's no need to be a shame about this for what we did was not wrong," Ares said to her that made my blood started to boil within me.

"What!" I said frighteningly.

"Natalia and I have known each other for a year now and we have been secretly seeing each other," my brother told me.

I was shocked by what my brother said.

"But you are not mates," I told him.

"We know, but we love each other," Ares told me. Natalya got close to him holding Ares's right hand.

I saw within my brother's beautiful eyes that he was madly in love with her. They both were madly in love. My anger disappeared suddenly.

"What had happened to me four years ago when I had no choice but to reject my mate I have learned to move on," my brother explained as he turned to Natalia staring within her eyes lost.

Recollecting what had happened to us. I felt my wolf within me howling in pain. I was happy that my brother had moved on with his life for it was good for one day; he will need a Luna to rule by his side. I on the other hand did not have the heart to. I do not think my wolf would allow me to.

I turned my back sadly starting to think if alpha Christian did the same as my brother did. Ares gently touched me by my shoulder I turned to look at him.

"Please don't let father know about this for one of the reasons we have been hiding this is because Natalya is not my mate and as the alpha, it is wrong to steal someone else mate," my brother said sadly.

"Okay," I answered, knowing the type of person my father was, very strict.

"Just give me some time to tell dad this," my brother said.

"I will, you don't have to worry," I told him with a smile trying to hide my sadness.

Ares kissed Natalia on her cheek and went upstairs leaving us just two.

"Thank you," Natalia thank me with her harmonious voice that seemed like it could capture any man's heart.

"I love my brother and would do anything for him," I told her.

She nodded and went into the kitchen in completing her daily work. I watched her as she left, while my mind again ran on alpha Christian. Seeing my brother moving on with his life I started to think if it was easier for a male wolf to do so. I was eager to know if Christian had another, she-wolf within his life. I desperately needed to know.

My body jumped as I heard the door open.

"Aria," my baby sis ran towards me happily.

I took her up into my arms and hugged her.

"You're back already?" I inquired mom and dad.

"Your sis was dying to return home in playing with her doll," Luna Lila answered me.

"Yes!" my sis shouted excitedly and slowly pushed her body away from me wanting to come down.

I placed her down and watched her ran upstairs into her room speedily.

"Did you have a great time with your brother today?" my dad, alpha Logan inquired me while he wrapped one of his strong long arms around mom, pulling her close to his body.

"Yes," I lied to my dad.

"Okay," he said, while he and mom both passed me going upstairs still close towards each other.

I watched them sadly while my mind constantly being kept running on my mate, alpha Christian.

I need a run, I thought. It would clear my mind off him. It had helped me throughout the years in getting my mind of Christian whenever the wonderful and painful memories I had once shared with him popped up within my head. Quickly, I exit the house running at the back of my house. I took off my clothes shifting into my bright brown wolf that almost had the colour of my red hair and started to run. The cool breeze passed through my fur brushing against my skin giving me a wonderful feeling. It was what I needed in taking my mind off the painful past. I stopped within a large field from my house and looked back seeing I was far from my house which was not safe. I looked around seeing I was alone and decided to take a rest for a while lying flat on my belly. Enjoying the soothing breeze even more. I lower my head and close my eyes enjoying every moment of this peaceful place. My eyes open quickly, and I jumped up hearing heavy footsteps against the ground and there I saw two strange wolves; running to me showing their teeth as if they wanted to kill me. Frighten I quickly ran opposite from them until I found myself within the forest. I glance behind me and saw them still chasing me. Why are they chasing me? I thought with great worries as I ran deeper into the forest. Swiftly I raised my head within the air howling for my father or brother to alert them I was in trouble. I lower my head back and continued to run.

As I ran, I cried scared hoping if my father or brother had heard me and too that I was too far away from my land now. I suddenly stopped seeing there was nowhere for me to run. I was cut off by a big cliff that would be too dangerous to jump over. My wolf trembled as I stand at the edge of the cliff while the two strange light brown wolves got close to me grinning their teeth angrily. I whimper like a pup stepping backward almost falling off. I quickly got hold of myself and closed my eyes scared.

Suddenly I heard a loud growled appearing from nowhere. I opened my eyes to see if it was Ares or father, but it was not it was a dark large wolf. I widen my eyes seeing it was Alpha Christian. I quickly moved away from the cliff and watched him as he fought off the two strange wolves by himself.

The strange wolf ran crying; defeated. He watched them as they ran off. I stood behind him watching. He turned around and walked away not even looking at me. It was as if I did not exist to him. Happy I was saved by him and to see him. I made a soft sound to him and ran towards him wanting to rub my furry wolf against him thanking him. My wolf jumped frighteningly as he growled at me angrily not wanting me to touch him. I stood away from him scared. He glances at me staring within my eyes. My body shivers at his stare. Within his eyes, I only saw darkness. His eyes were no longer the same as I once remembered, it was darker and gave me a cold deadly feeling not wanting to be next to me. I lower my head and slowly walked backward as he continues to stare at me and turned around quickly running away. Petrified of being around him. My wolf cried seeing her mate was no longer the same. She was afraid of him and only sense pure darkness.
