Dean POV
I was lying on the grass near the waterfall and she was sleeping on my chest while I played with her long shiny black hair, the sun was going down and it was so peaceful.
She moves a little then her hazel eyes with green flecks looks up to meet mine and my heart skips a beat, she is breathtaking.
“hey sleepy head” I say smiling then run my fingers on her full pink lips that goes perfectly with her fair skin, she smiles putting her hands on my cheek and I lean into her touch, we move toward each other and when our lips are about to touch… I wake up startled by the banging on my door, then the door flew open.
"WHAT THE FUCK DEREK" that dick, couldn’t he wait few more minutes? I look at my phone and see that it’s 8 am, so I didn’t oversleep or anything, why is he breaking my door down and waking me up from my beautiful dream.
"Wake up; we have a meeting today remember?" Derek says, as if I forgot, it was the only damn thing he talked about since we came back from blood moon.
" Its fucking 7 hours from now, calm your shit down and stop acting like a high school teenager who can't wait to go to prom" I say chuckling which now I realize it was a huge mistake.
Derek launches towards me knocking me of the bed and putting me in a headlock all in one swift move… "What did you say?" Derek says as he tightens his hold around my neck
"Nothing, Alpha" I choke out; I know he would never really hurt me, I’m his brother but he was my alpha nonetheless.
Derek releases his hold on me and pats my head saying "Good baby brother, remember who is your alpha"
"Don't call me that” I hated that baby brother shit, I’m a full grown man, I am his beta for crying out loud,
"You'll always be my baby brother Deedee" he says smirking "Don't fucking call me that either" I say angrily.
I really hated that fucking nickname he used to call me when we were kids because I once thought it was a good idea to jump of the roof of the training building to see if I was going to land like Spiderman but instead I fell and broke my leg and I was crying too much and sounded like a girl according to him,
he could be a real asshole sometimes but he is also the greatest brother one can wish for, because when father found out about this incident he swore to give me the beating of a lifetime for my stupidity and how I embarrassed him with my childish acts, I mean I was a child I was only 11 but that never stopped father, we were beaten since we could walk.
Derek saw how enraged father was so he said that he pushed me of the roof as we were goofing off so it was an accident and it was entirely his fault.
That day father sent Derek to the hospital with serious injuries and broken bones; I believe that this was the incident that brought us on the “Guardians” radar.
You can only imagine the severity of the beaten if it sent an alpha werewolf to the hospital, although he was just 14 years old, he was strong, the strongest just by lineage never mind the amount of training father put him through.
When I went to visit him at the hospital I was consumed with guilt I was a crying mess, Derek warned me that if father saw me crying I will join him in the bed next to him and teased me about how I sounded like a girl when I cry thus came the nickname Deedee.
I hate the nickname mostly because it reminds me of that day and how Derek looked in that hospital bed all because of me.
“Okay calm down princess we don't want you to start crying" he say teasingly.
I groaned walking past him into my ensuite bathroom to start that fucking day.
-
I walk into the dining hall and it was mostly empty as everyone was either in training or on their way to work or school but the exception was Natalia as usual.
I see her staring at Derek as if he is the only person in the room with a pained smile on her face yet some hope in her eyes that my brother somehow someday will be hers.
She was a beautiful girl with short blond hair just above her shoulders and light green eyes and pale skin and a fit body as she is one of our strongest female warriors.
A lot of males desired her but she only desired one, the one she can never have.
Derek never hooked up with pack members, He was a bit of a playboy but never to the extent of being a manwhore as he likes to call me, I was a bit of a dick too to be honest.
I find my way to the ranking members table and set on Derek's right while Dylan on his left. Dylan is the gamma and our cousin.
“It’s about time you join us Deedee, what took you so long? Your morning skin routine, or something?” Derek jokes.
“No, it was my hair routine, my skin is flawless” I say shrugging and they start laughing, assholes, I like to look good so sue me.
"Good job Dylan sending us those links as fast as you did, you saved us a lot of trouble" I say as I sit down and start filling my plate with food and desperately trying to change the subject.
"Come on cous it’s me... it was nothing" he says smirking; Apparently I wasn't the only arrogant dick in the pack.
"But for real that was a close call and we got lucky because alpha douchebag got cocky and thought he had a solid plan, if those were any other pack members not kids with school cameras on them in the morning it would have been harder to prove" Dylan say, all serious now, he tends to switch like that.
“Yes, and he has someone working in the inside too, he planned this from the night before, how else did he now that those kids were going to cross borders?” I say.
“I know but we are keeping this information a secret till we figure it out, he already had the arbitrator there thinking we will be caught off guard and wouldn’t be able to defend ourselves… we are having a pack meeting tomorrow morning to discuss safety procedures, Michael is in a disparate position now after what Mr. Jones said and I won’t put anything past him ... plus I have an important announcement to make" Derek finished with a half smirk.
I gave him a pointed look; shouldn’t he tell her first before telling the pack? And he answers that question out loud.
"I'm not sleeping another day without her at least in the same house; I didn't get any sleep yesterday"
"YOU FOUND OUR LUNA?" Dylan screams with excitement like he a kid promised to go to Disneyland on his birthday.
" Shhhhhhh calm the fuck down, I'll only announce it when she is here, she is human and doesn’t know yet that she is my mate” Derek warns with a low growl.
"You are lucky that the dining hall is almost empty and hopefully no one heard or Derek would of ripped your head off" I say chuckling.
"You can't blame me for being excited that Sophia will finally find someone else to complain about you boys with, I mean I love my mate to death but I'm tired of defending you assholes " he says standing up and heading out of the dining hall .
Dylan is our cousin so he gets away with talking with us like that actually that’s one of the nicest ways he talks to us with... Yup he is a dick.
Derek POV“You son of bitch” Alexandria yells at me“You call yourself the alpha slayer?” Alexandria continue her scolding “No, I don’t call myself that…people call me that” I answer smirking which seems to enrage her even more “I don’t care what you are called, you are still a coward” Alexandria screams at me, okay, now she is taking it too far, as she usually does, and I won’t take it“Listen here mate, call me whatever names you want to call me, I’m still not going to do it, and I hate to sound like a dick, but that’s what the omegas are for” I say firmly “So you are still not going to do it… you are backing out of this?” she says with a fake disappointed look“I’m not backing out of anything since I’m not the one who volunteered in the first place” I say throwing my hands in the air.“It doesn’t matter we are in it together, you are supposed to have my back” she starts yelling again “Love, I’ll always have your back, but I’m not changing that stinky diaper” I say trying to cal
Three years agoAdam POVI was sitting in the office with Max discussing something unimportant or maybe it was then Carter comes rushing in without even knocking“We found her” Carter says with a glint in his eyes, he always had a thing for my Lexi and he actually thought he might have a chance in being the one I’d marry her off to,Don’t get me wrong, carter is smart and ambitious but he is one of the weaker lineages , I had much bigger plans for her than just another pure hunter,. Mason Venatores , Max’s older brother, they’re the only other family as strong as ours, they will have the strongest offspring, unfortunately the fool only sees her as a little sister like he says, Max is the one following her like a lost puppy but he doesn’t have a say in this neither do Lexi.“Let’s go get her back then” I say standing up and getting ready to leave the office“We already have the pack surrounded, we think the whole pack is in on it” carter says following me as do Max,All the way to the
Alexandria POV It’s been a couple of days since the guardians’ ball, Sophia is getting released from the hospital today , Derek still refuses to read the letter his mother left , I don’t know if it’s denial or is he mad at her for leaving them yet again.Dean on the other hand, is taking it harder than I anticipated, he never showed any emotions for the woman or that he cared about her, it was quite the opposite, but now, I guess he feels sorry for her, for what she’s been through, maybe the letter made him understand her more… and eventually forgive her.As for Dylan, he didn’t leave Louis’s cell until the day after, there were hardly anything for us to bury, not that it mattered anyway, Derek ordered for his remains to be scattered somewhere far away outside the pack borders for vultures to feed on… fitting end if you ask me.The pack is somewhat accepting me, it’s either because I’m the guardians’ sister or because I defended them during the attack, or maybe both, I don’t care as
warning, the following might be triggering to some, please be careful Elizabeth POVPain… all I feel is pain, like my heart is being ripped out of my chest, my neck is burning like someone poured acid on it, one moment I was sitting in our house’s basement till the attack is over, the second I was curled on the floor screaming , what is happening?“He is marking another” my wolf says whimpering, no, not after all what I did for him, it can’t be true.The pain somehow gets even worse, my vision is blurring and I can hardly breath, is this how I die? Alone in a basement betrayed by my mate. I faintly hear the basement’s door break “Luna Elizabeth, it’s okay, the beta sent us for you” is the last thing I hear before the pain takes over me and I go unconscious - “Wake up, it’s okay, the pain is gone”“What do you mean? How?”“I don’t know but it just did”“What the hell is going on?” I hear Derek shouting from across the hall and I open my eyes“ANSWER ME” I hear Derek command and I j
Derek POV“They are my brothers” My mate answers“The guardians are hunters?” Dean asks stunned“Yes, we are the shunned ones” both guardians answer simultaneously in a very haunting way and i could swear that their grey eyes glowed a little “I thought you said your twin brothers were dead” I ask narrowing my eyes … she turns to face me again still in my arms, yes, I’m literally not letting her go again.“no, I said we lost my brothers, never said they were dead” she says, avoiding my gaze“The guardians are our Luna’s brothers, how special” one of the pack members says too excited for the situation we are in“If the guardians are hunters and they are the Luna’s brothers… does that mean the Luna is a hunter?” another one asksI feel Alexandria’s hand tighten on my arm, I look at her and she looks like she is about to faint“Let’s get you back to the hospital love” I tell her as I pick her up bridal style“We’ll take her” guardian … let’s call him guardian 1 says“We’ll make sure she
Alexandria POVI wake up by the river shore, the beautiful spot where Derek took me before the rejection, wait… the last time something like that happened I saw Luke, am I going to see him again? But this is me and Derek’s special place … or it was meant to be at least, why am I meeting Luke in Derek’s place, or am I meeting Derek? Does that mean Derek is… no, no, that’s not right, I was the one who got hurt… does this mean that I’m the dead one?“Well fuck you Moon goddess for giving me everything and just ripping it away” I start yelling out loud to the open space hoping the bitch can hear me“You are a sick asshole, you know that?... tormenting your children as you call them, giving them hope and love then just like that… it all disappears… you are a cold fucking bitch” I keep yelling“You do have a filthy mouth child” What the fuck? Who said that? Then a woman appears from … I really don’t know, she just appearedHer skin is the color of the midnight sky, her hair is the color of
