The Stripper Luna (1-15 Rewritten)

Chapter 4

I stood there in shock trying to figure out how to deal with this situation.

"Your mate is my brother?" He asked again.

My inner wolf wanted to scream yes and attack Vin but I didn't want him.

"Yeah.."

I said while lowering my head. Jack was fuming about this situation and began to walk away. I tried to run after him but an arm caught me.

"Don't chase after him, and never put your head down for a man."

I looked at Vin in disgust. Everything wants him but my heart knows better.

"I don't want you." I snapped back.

Before snatching my arms from his grasp... I took off in hopes of finding Jack. But when I got outside I saw shredded clothes. "Fuck" was all I could think. His wolf was mad and it's not a good idea to try to intervene. I tried linking him but he had shut me out too. My wolf was whining in heartache as I publicly told my mate I didn't want him and ran for his brother. Isn't that something for the books? I walked back inside and went to my office to change my clothes. Quickly changing into my sweats and grabbed my keys.

"Carla, I am leaving. You know how to close down so close up for me, thank you."

I walked to my car where I was met with Vin. Great, just what I needed.

"You didn't wait for me?" He said. Which earned him an eye roll.

"I am 28 years old, don't be ridiculous. And if I am mistaken this is the first time you've been here since you became of age. So blame yourself for this."

I unlocked my car to get in when the passenger side was opened and he sat in. This man has the fucking audacity. Can he take a fucking hint seriously? If I am running after Jack shouldn't he know that's who I want?

"Get out, I don't want you here."

Vin had placed his hand on the back of my neck to where we were a few cm away. My body was at full speed knowing we were this close.

"You know you really don't want that. I've waited so long for you."

We were so close but this was wrong. I am not the type to fall for someone without an emotional connection. But this mate pull was strong and eager.

"I stopped waiting for you. Get a clue."

With that, he locked his lips on mine and sadly I couldn't pull away. My wolf was aching for him and needed him. He reached over, pulling me onto his lap. His hands roamed my body causing me to melt like butter. It was this dying force that made your inside want to crawl their way out so they could get a look.

But my senses came back, which was strong enough to release him and climb back over.

"No. I don't want this. I don't want you, what part of that don't you understand?"

But he rolled his eyes at me. Like it didn't mean anything or like I was going to change my mind.

"The "I don't want you" part. No matter how hard you try to fight it you won't be able to. You had your fun with my brother babe. I can forgive that but you're my mate. My Luna, and your pack needs you." Anger built up inside me where my hand met the side of his cheek. The sound seemed to be scarier than the hit. It was done with intent to hurt him or maybe just to make him aware that I was serious.

"This is my pack. I own this club. I am not leaving and you can't make me do that, mate or no mate. You want to take advantage of this mate thing fine. But I don't have to do anything. I can choose Jack any day and right now I hurt him. Get out!"

I started shoving him to where he finally got out of the car. I needed to get as far as possible away from him.

"Don't fight it, Athena."

I slowly pulled out from the parking lot and headed back to my apartment. I watched as he stood there until he became a spec in my rearview mirror. How was I going to fight this when I knew I couldn't? By law, should it be reported then and I'd be forced to go regardless. When I got home I was completely drained. This was way too much to handle and how was it that he showed up a week after I made that promise with Jack.? Something just didn't seem right. After settling into my bed I found myself struggling to sleep. I wanted to know where Jack was. This isn't what I planned or wanted, but I knew I wanted him with me. When Jack is here it's like everything makes sense. There are no questions or jealousy, it's all written clearly. I know he blocked me out but I wanted to say something before tomorrow comes.

"I know you're mad, and you have every right. But I don't want him even though everything in me does. My heart wants you. Please don't ignore me." I sent a last mind-link to him.

The sun crept up as I still had no reply from Jack. If I was him I'd probably do the same thing. He had to choose his brother but I chose me. I wasn't going to melt into my mate's arms because the moon goddess was playing some sick game like we are her puppets. I hear a knock at my door. My nose went off knowing it was Jack. I ran to the door and pulled it open before I wrapped my arms around him.

"Please don't avoid me."

His arms had slowly wrapped around my waist before a cough interrupted us. I retracted my arms, noticing it was Vincent.

"I set a meeting with your council today."

I knew this wasn't going to be good so I slipped on my sandals as I felt a hand grab mine as it led me down. Vin wasn't happy with us but he was calming my wolf and I down. A meeting with the council wasn't good. I never had to encounter it but it was a matter of time. Vin made me ride with him just so I wasn't with Jack. What a fucking mess I am in. Where I am in love with one brother by choice but automatically in love with my mate.

"You love my brother, don't you?" He asked me.

I looked over to him to see the pain in his face.

"I thought I'd never find you." was my reply which was just a way of sugar-coating things.

"That's not what I asked."

I tugged at the lip skin on my lips where I didn't want to seem like some hussy either.

"I think so."

A part of me was reaching for him to change my mind, but we didn't know each other.

"You know you can't love him, especially since I exist."

We pulled into the parking lot where Jack had opened my door for me.

"What is this for?" I asked him.

He didn't say anything except he began walking in the building, but I had a good idea of what it was about. When we all entered we were led to a large room with the counsel who was probably not excited to see me.

"Are you Athena Sadar?" Councilman Rick had asked.

"I am sir."

Vincent had moved ahead of me to speak. He was really not going to let this go. I don't know why he is trying so hard if he knew where I stood on this? He is forcing something that wasn't wanted. I should've mated with Jack when he confessed his feelings.

"Vincent, what is the reason for this meeting that you called.?" He was asked.

"Sir, last night I was pleased to have found my mate. My mate had found relations with another Alpha who is my brother. I want to propose something."

"I am requesting that my mate spends the next 6 months with me in my pack without my brother. Should she not be able to love me back in that timeframe, I will accept her rejection and allow her to mate with my brother." My mouth dropped after hearing this. 6 months with him in his pack? No this can't happen!
