My bullies, My Step Brothers, My Mates?

Lexi Mitchell’s povThe first day of spring break I was free from school for an entire week. Stretching in my bed I smiled seeing the sun shining through the window in my small room.My 18th birthday was just a couple of months away. I was debating on whether to stay with my mom or leave the pack and bullying behind me.Living with my mom in a trailer on our pack's land was delightful and much better than the crowded pack house. I wasn't bullied by my classmates here and it helped with my sanity. It wasn't my fault that I excelled in my classes and had a 4.0 average.I wasn't interested in flirting or sleeping around with the other pack boys, not that I was innocent. I had already been intimate with an old boyfriend I had in my freshman year but he dumped me soon after finding his actual mate. At eighteen we would be able to find our mates and that was exactly what had happened to Marcus. It was heartbreaking for me so I kept myself away from the opposite sex.Since then it has been

Lexi's pov“YOU?!” They both proclaimed in blatant disgust. I wasn't pleased either but ignored them both as Lilly shooed them from my room by waving the feather duster at them and closed both doors.Clenching my fists, my jaw twitched as I turned to the housekeeper.“Sorry Miss, those two can be obnoxious and rude,” she commented.Nodding, I told her that I was very much aware.Lilly continued strolling through my room and pointed out the ensuite along with the door to my closet.“The Alpha had all your clothes pressed and hung for you when they arrived in boxes. All your bathing necessities are in the cabinet in the facilities. Dinner is at six each day and you are expected to be dressed appropriately. The Alpha is a stickler for promptness and etiquette,” she muttered and I raised my blonde brow.“So no elbows on the table and make sure to use the correct fork, that's what you are implying,” I asked in humor.Nodding briskly she told me, “ Oh yes, dear, you don't want to get on th

Lexi's povI spent the school morning with Mini and found her companionship refreshing. I also noticed that Sloan and I were in all of the same classes as well and the three of us were on our way to lunch when the shit hit the fan.Sitting at the table with my new friends Nathan came into the lunch room and spied me laughing with the Beta's son. Hearing growls coming from across the room I glanced up to see Nathan storming toward us with his fists clenched. When he grabbed Sloan by his shirt and jerked him to his feet I scrambled up and wedged myself between the pair.“What is wrong with you,” I snapped and glared at him seething with anger.He was panting heavily and stepped back releasing his hold on Sloan.“You will know exactly what is wrong once your birthday comes, little step-sister,” he snarled in response and I looked at him like he had gone rabid.“Well it's not for two months so back off me and my friends,” I warned and the entire room grew quiet. Glaring at me with his s

Lexi's povWaking up before Lilly invaded my domain I wiped the drool from my chin and sat up.Raising my hand to my hair I cringed.“I slept with damp air and have a rat nest on my head,” I groaned and hurried to take another shower.Drying off I heard Lilly calling out for me.“I'm just getting out of the shower,” I called back and heard her say, “Okay, miss.”Blow drying my hair I made a mental note of what I was going to wear. Once I finished I ran my naked self to my dresser to grab my panties and bra then headed to my closet. Choosing a pair of denim jeans and a plain t-shirt I dressed quickly and rushed down to the kitchen.Seeing the room empty I frowned but wasn't concerned. I often didn't have my mom home to greet me so it was nothing new. I just grabbed an apple from the bowl on the counter.Munching on the apple I tilted my head hearing laughter heading into the kitchen and raised my brow watching Nathan with that Courtney chick coming in.Nathan glared at me, turned her

Lexi's povNolan intercepted me and handed me a glass.“Drink this,” he offered.Furrowing my brow at him I tipped the glass and swallowed the contents then hissed from the burn.“What was that,” I sputtered as he laughed.“A hundred and twenty proof Moonshine,” he chuckled and I sneered.“I don't want to get wasted!”Still grinning at me he took the empty glass from my hand and placed it on a tray of a passing waiter.“Let's dance, Lexi,” he offered, lifting his hand out to me.Feeling the alcohol already dulling my senses my lip curled as I gave him my hand.“You did that on purpose,” I accused him.Pulling me against himself as he swayed he grinned.“What do you mean?”“Getting me buzzed,” I muttered.Instead of denying it it twirled me around and pulled me closer still.“I only meant to help you loosen up,” he smiled, causing my eyes to narrow.Feeling his fingers splayed out on my lower bare right hip I growled low as I pushed him away.“I'm going to find Sloan, he is not my step
