Siblings

Alex P.O.V. 

One minute we are all having a good time, laughing and joking then the next everything turns to utter shit and my sister is gone. 

What the fuck happened? 

We were sitting in my room; Jeff, Andrea, Janelle and me. We are having a little pre 18 get together before the big day tomorrow. Janelle is convinced she is my mate and has been clinging to me every second for the last week. It’s fucking annoying, but if it gets her attention away from my sister, then so be it! 

I have been playing the mean brother for the last 8 years, knowing full well nothing that happened on that day was her fault. I have been protecting her the only way I knew how, and that was to push her away. 

I can’t count how many times I’ve taken the punishment for something someone thought was her fault - telling them it was actually me, when it wasn’t. But it wasn’t her either, so that was that in my mind! 

Isa obviously doesn’t know, and I don’t plan for her to know before I am the beta of the pack. Then she’ll be under my open protection, even from my alpha and best friend. She will be untouchable unless he wants to lose his beta.

12.01 am

‘Hello Alex. It’s nice to meet you!’ A voice says in my mind. 

‘Nice to meet you too! What is your name?’ I ask my wolf. He barks a laugh. 

‘My name is Thunder.’ He replies with a proud puff of his chest. I laugh internally at his silliness. Janelle is looking at me with hearts in her eyes, but I don’t feel anything. 

I’m about to tell her as much, when my door opens and Isa is standing there looking weirdly at Jeff.. Ah fuck my life! Are they mates?! I don’t know whether to be happy, angry or all in between.  

“So, you feel it too, huh?” That fucker to Jeff asks with a smirk. Andrea is smirking as well. What the actual? HE KNEW? Oh hell no! That dimwitt knew my sister was his mate and has been parading women in her face. 

Jeff is 3 weeks older then me and Isa, so naturally he knows who his mate is. I just didn’t think he had sensed her?! He hadn’t said anything. 

I’m about to blow a gasket, when Isa opens her mouth. 

“I, Isabella Ellie Moon, reject you, Jefferson Green as my mate and alpha.” She says with no emotion at all! Jeff falls to his knees, and all I can think of is getting him to tell me what he did to get her to do this! Thunder rushes to the surface, roaring and wanting to protect his twin! 

“WHAT HAVE YOU DONE?” Me and Thunder yell together. Out of the side of my eye I see Isa’s eyes fill with hurt. She probably believes I am yelling at her. That couldn’t be farther from the truth.  

She demands him to accept her rejection, heck she even shakes the house. Damn my sister is powerful! I am so proud of her for standing up for herself like this, but right now I need everyone's attention on me and Jeff so she can leave. 

She does, and about 5 minutes later I feel the loss of a pack member, but this is all too familiar. Tears streamed down my cheeks. She left! I lost her! Lost my sister because of these fucking nincompoops. 

A couple of minutes more and my parents along with the alpha rushes into my room. Guns blazing and screaming. 

“What happened?”

“Who left?” 

“Son, what’s going on?”

“She rejected him, daddy. That little good for nothing bitch rejected my brother and just walked out of here like it was nothing.” Janelle says. I growl at her for calling Isa a bitch! She is as far from a bitch as they come. She is kind, caring and beautiful inside and out. I just didn’t think she would leave. 

“Alex, is this true? Did that girl reject our future alpha?” That girl? 

“Seriously, is this the only thing that matters? She is not just ‘that girl’, mother! She is your daughter, MY SISTER!” I yell the last part. 

“I don’t care who she is - she is to be found and dragged back here! No one rejects my son and just disappears.” The alpha growls, while looking at a still crying Jeff. 

Then Janelle, as the self centered bitch she is, has to make it all about herself again, now that she threw my sister under the bus.

“So, mate. When should we announce our relationship to the pack?” She asks with a sweet as sugar voice that makes me want to vomit. 

“We are not mates. Get away from me.” I say as I push her into the arms of her father, who stares daggers at me. 

“Son, if the alpha’s daughter thinks you are mates, who are you to turn her down?” My father says in a serious and stern voice. I look at him like he is crazy. 

“Are you serious right now?” I ask, and he nods. 

“Because my wolf wants nothing to do with her, and I am not accepting someone who is not my mate - alphas daughter or not.” I growl. 

“Well, that is not up to you now. Is it, boy?” Alpha asks. What the fuck does that mean? 

“When that backstabbing bitch to Isabella is caught, she is to accept my son as her mate. She will never be Luna, of course, that we have Andrea here for. And when that happens, you, Alex, will accept my daughter as your mate at the same time. That’s an order.” He says with finality. Janelle beams at me, but I just stare at her blankly. 

“This is a joke, right?” I ask, but Alpha shakes his head. He is serious. I look to my parents, but they are nothing but greedy fuckers who see this as an opportunity to get more power and money. 

I throw my hands up in utter despair, and a plan is slowly forming in my head. I will play along for now, getting as much information as I can before leaving myself. 

“The team for capturing the girl is getting ready as we speak.” My father exclaims calmly. What the fuck is wrong with these people? 

I need to bide my time, and then get the fuck out of here to warn my sister.
