*Wyatt*The crowd roared as I entered the arena. Looking at Mason’s shocked face I held back the smirk I wanted to flash at him. I have a job to do.Beat his ass and become Abby’s beta.As much as I didn’t want this title before, my mind is made up. In order to protect my sister, I would step up and help her as much as possible. Honestly, when I finally figured out that my whole life was a lie, I just wanted to disappear... but she, Dad, and Luna Ellie brought me back to my senses. I would never be happy just being on the sidelines... I’ve been in the mix for too long.And, like Abby said, I am her brother. No stupid piece of paper is going to tell me who my family is. I growled a loud growl that made Mason’s eyes widen even more as my anger started to grow. How dare she even attempt to talk to me?! I roared in my mind as I glared at my ex. This is the third time in this tournament she has linked me. My ‘mother’ sat beside her, that
*Abby*The crowd was silent for a moment, clearly shocked by my announcement. Then the applause started, it grew louder and louder as more and more people started to stand and look at Angie in a welcoming manner. She just sat there, confused and shocked. Beside her, Stuart started to shake her gently, urging her to come onstage.Finally, Mariah nods at me and spoke softly in Angie’s ear. It seems that Angie zoned out for a moment like she does sometimes. Finally, she stood and turned to the crowd, bowing slightly.“Angie, would you come up here and join us please?” I asked calmly, glancing at Jay who looks like he swallowed a fistful of glass. Beside him, Gamma Scott is... smiling? Beaming, even? Am I in the twilight zone?As Angie makes her way on stage, I hear Wyatt chuckling from my side. I glance over at him, but he shakes his head with a smirk on his face. He replied.
*Abby*“And what happened, is the next day when you were busy doing Goddess knows what with.... Delih... well with another pack member, me and Abby snuck into your room and filled all of your underwear with itching powder!” Angie laughed as we sat around the head table at dinner.“Wait, what?!” Wyatt nearly chocked on his food. “That was you two?” He glared at me and Angie.“Not just us....” Angie smirked as Brian and Mariah started laughing as well.“I wasn’t in it.” Stuart quickly said. “I told them it was a bad idea.”“No, you were the lookout!” I laughed. “But you deserved it, Wyatt! Pushing me in the lake right after I spent all that money getting my hair straightened out!”“My balls itched for a week!” He countered. “I thought that I-” He let his voice drop and growled slightly. “I thought that I caught something!”“Well, it’s a wonder you didn’t-” Brian started before I gave him a quick kick in his shin, shutting him up.“Anyway! New topic!!!” Mariah announced as she clapped he
*Angie*What the hell just happened?! I stood there as Stuart growled at Jay who was holding his head. “Stay away from her you man whore!” He growled as Abby walked over to him, I could tell she was sending him a mind link as Stuart started to calm down.What happened? Why did he fly off the handle like that? I can take care of myself damn it! Haven’t I proved that already?! As I stood there trying to process what just happened a couple of nurses ran in and grabbed Jay and took him outside. A moment later an omega came in with a giant trash bag, looking very confused.The sounds of Abby and Mariah’s laughter finally broke me out of my stupor, and I started to giggle as well. “Alright, now where were we?” I mentioned.“Shadow’s medicine. And after-party in Abby’s suite!” Brian grinned. “Who got the snacks?!”“Hey who said everyone was invited to my suite?” Abby grinned as they all started to leave my dad’s office. I chuckled to myself as I started to follow them.“Hey. Angie, wait.” My
*Abby*“Looks like no Street Fighter tournament tonight.” I say as I toss my phone on my side table. “Angie is staying with her parents tonight, she said she has some things to talk through. But she says not to worry about her.” I flop on my couch and kick my feet up on the coffee table.“Oh, hope everything’s okay.” Brian mentions as he grabs the gaming controller and powers up Tekken. “Alright, who is ready to get their butts kicked?”Wyatt smirks as he grabs the other controller and I reach for my Switch. I have been neglecting my Pokémon lately.Mariah looks up from the floor where she was playing with Shadow as Stuart returns from the bathroom. She chuckles at him as he tries and fails to look around subtlety. “Stu, Angie’s not coming tonight.”His eyes get wide and he studders as he sits on the armchair. “Oh, okay. Um... alright.” He tries to look at the TV, but his foot is tapping and starting to drive me crazy.“Stu. She is with her parents, calm down. No one is taking her fro
*Abby* The next few weeks were nothing but stressful. We have no idea how many packs are going to be attending, so I have been going through our old treaties and cross referencing alphas and lunas with what our terms are. Around me on my desk are endless piles of notes and folders. Ugh. Another headache starts up and I grab the pill bottle with a growl. I have to be prepared, and I have no idea what I am in for. Shadow jumps up on my lap and curls up, purring softly. A tap on my office door makes me look up as Wyatt walks in with a covered plate. “You missed dinner again.” He said as he placed the container in front of me. “Look, I understand how stressed you are right now, but you need to rest, Abby.” “I’m stressed because I literally have no idea what I am in for.” I admit. “Plus, like Dad said, I should use this opportunity to reach out to other packs and gain allies. Mom was hinting again that maybe my second chance will have ties to someone there as well.” Wyatt sighed a
The next day I am sitting in my office while Wyatt, Phil, and our dad go over some finances. I am trying to focus on what they are saying and doing... something about an off shore account that seemingly disappeared overnight? I can’t focus, my mind just keeps going back to what I found last night. Going through hundreds of posts regarding the ‘Demon’ made it impossible for me to sleep. One of the latest posts described how he mangled and disfigured another alpha over a disagreement! How ruthless and horrible! And the whispers were even saying that he found his mate recently! Some of the newer pictures kept showing the same amber colored wolf close by whenever the Demon was caught on camera. The poor woman! There were also supposedly videos of the Demon in action, but I couldn’t talk myself into opening them. I don’t think I want to see some of things that were described in those posts. Goddess, if those stories are true then what am I supposed to do at this meeting? My tho
*Abby* “Oh of course!” I nearly squeaked out. “Please, sit!” I motioned to the chairs as I sat back down. Beta Violet and Jake sat beside my brother while Samantha sat beside me. Around me I couldn’t help but notice eyes watching me. Samantha seemed oblivious though as her mate helped slide her chair under the table before sitting himself. “So, tell me, Alpha Abigail.” Samantha started. “How long have you been alpha for?” My heart jumped into my throat. “Uh, um. Not long.” I admitted. “Not quite a month.” “And is this your first major meeting?” “Uh... yeah.” I blinked. She only nodded. “I see. I can tell you’re a little nervous.” She smiled warmly. “No need to be, not around me, anyway. I don’t bite.” She giggled. I go to open my mouth when a loud voice sounds close to where we were sitting. “Alpha Sam Silver!!! The Demon himself!!! What are you doing sitting with that weakling?!” Looking up another alpha in his twenties is looking at us and sneering. I can’t help the gro
