My Brother Is My Mate

Alexis’s POVIt is a normal tradition to celebrate the 18th birthday of any werewolf. There are quite a number of reasons why, but the most important one to me is that any wolf that turns 18 can now be considered an adult and is free to have a family and if they want to separate from their parents.Maybe that was the reason why Alexandra left without looking back, my subconscious tells me for the thousandth time ever since Alexandra left the house.I shake the thought out of my head and instead wish for something that might be near impossible at this point. It won’t happen, my subconscious tells me in my head, but I shut off her annoying voice and mutter a prayer to Selene…hopefully she’ll grant me my wish.My reflection stares back at me and I blink and smile, showing little teeth to be sure that it’s really me. My hair is in smooth waves down my back almost reaching my waist and my plain brown eyes are lined with, black eyeliner to give my eyes this cute cat-shaped outline. Thanks t

Alexandra’s POVIt was a mistake to come back….a very big stupid one.What the hell was I thinking about coming back to this damn pack? Everything is the same as I left it! Hell my wolf still gets crazy at the sight of Alexis, my sister. And I cannot stand the sweet scent that’s rolling off her body in waves.Is this a prank by the moon goddess? Did she get a kick out of making two blood-related siblings mates?"Mate isn’t sister." My wolf sneered angrily, all he wanted was to connect and mate. But he didn’t get it…he couldn’t understand it.I had been outside for close to six hours and now the sky had darkened considerably. The thing is, I want to avoid Alexis because I’m not sure if I can subdue my wolf in her presence, and I’m only left with two options. One is to go back tonight with Gena, and the other is to be a man and subdue my wolf so that I can at least stay a day with my family.In the end, I picked option number two and walked back home sullenly wondering what excuse I was

Alexis POVThe next morning, I trotted down the stairs, rubbing my sleepy eyes. I still felt sleepy, but at the same time, I couldn’t close my eyes without the image of my brother holding me flash through my mind.I didn’t want to think about it, but at the same time, I couldn’t help myself. I got into the kitchen to get water and the very image that perturbed my sleep last night was standing by the counter drinking water.Staring at where he stood. It reminded me of yesterday. He saw me and he almost choked on the water.He dropped the glass. I walked up to him bracing myself for what I was about to say. “Alex..” I began. As soon as I called his name, he walked out of the kitchen ensuring that our bodies did not touch even the slightest bit. I stared after his retreating figure in shock and annoyance. Why was the bloody hell of a brother ignoring me? Was it because of yesterday? Did he feel it too? I pondered.“No, I don’t think so. He’s been ignoring you since he came back from wh

Alexis’s POV “Since when do you bother about our whereabouts?” Mom asked me.I stared at her. Was she for real right now? “It’s almost two days now and we’ve heard nothing from you both,” I replied.Dad sighed. “Look, Lexi. Your mom and I had to go cool off after the offending words your brother said to us. Let’s not start fighting.”“I’m not fighting. It was Mom who gave me an incredible answer,” I responded, staring at her. Why was everyone harsh today?“I hope you understand. We were hurt and had to go let off some steam. We’re better now and back home. Isn’t that all that matters?” Dad said. He seemed to be more calm and collected than Mom.I shrugged. “I guess,”“Is your brother still here?” Mom asked.I nodded and walked back to the kitchen. Gena was almost done with cooking. “I heard voices. Are your parents back?” She asked.“Yeah,” I replied. ***It was dinner time when Alexander finally got out of his room. He got closer to the dining table and when he saw me; he looked aw

Alexis’s POV“Hey, you. You seem so happy this morning,” Gena said to him.He grinned. “Yeah. It’s because of you,” he replied and leaned in to kiss her lips.I coughed, which broke them apart. “I had something in my throat,” I said when all eyes were in my direction.Alex let go of Gena, took the bottle of water he came for and left the kitchen without sparing me a glance. I had expected that he would treat me indifferently after his confession, but no. Foolish of me to have thought of that. The jerk! I fumed.“Alexis?” Gena jolted me out of my thoughts. “Uh?” I looked at her.“You wanted to see me,” she said.“Oh, yeah,” I remembered the sole reason why I had came down from my room.“What for, if I may ask?” Mom asked.“Don’t worry, mom. It’s nothing an old lady should hear,” I teased her as I held Gena’s hand, leading her out of the kitchen.“Are you calling your mother old?” Mom called after me.“Yeah!” I replied, laughing.“No breakfast for you!” She yelled jokingly.I chuckled
