"Mate?" Emberly asks. Josh smiles softly at me. I look around confused. Me? His mate? I don't think so.... I can't possibly be the other half to an Alpha. I mean look at me! I'm a runt Omega who is broken! There is no way I'm the perfect match to him... Unless he plans on using me as a punching bag. That's all I'm good for anyway.
Josie! You found your mate! Em says in our link. He might hurt me. I don't want to be hurt anymore. The moon Goddess has made a mistake. I'm not good for him! I only serve the place of a servant. I reply. No sis. You are better than that. You mean more than that! Can't you see he's already in love with you? I know you have trust issues but give him a chance. It's been twelve years and I know it's hard. I will make you a deal. In this new pack, I will train and be your personal guard. No matter who my mate is. We are eighteen, it is time we made a difference. I will be here every step of the way sis. This time it is my turn to protect you.
I smile. My sister always says the right things, but is it really ok to depend on her for a change? No matter what my first instinct is to protect her. Suddenly a thought charges me... My mate is an Alpha, that makes me his Luna! I don't know of I an handle being a Luna and protecting my sister until she is strong... As Luna I have to protect a whole pack. I can barely protect Em! How can I handle hundreds of wolves?
"I'm taking my mate and her sister home with me. We will first go to your pack to grab their stuff. Don't argue Matthew, unless you want to challenge me." Josh says breaking me from my thoughts. "Alpha, you will honestly be better off rejecting her. She is nothing but a runt Omega!" My brother states. Josh growls. I flinch back and Em grabs my hand. Rely on me sis. Just go along with what I say. She says with an evil glint in her eyes.
"What's the matter big brother? Don't want him to see our sleeping arrangements? If you can call them that. Or are you squeamish? I never would have thought that an Alpha who punishes with no mercy could be so squeamish of a little blood." She smirks. I look at her shocked. What's with the confidence all of a sudden? I ask. She looks at me. You know that rogue we were talking to this morning? I nod. Well, he is my mate. We found out a few nights ago when he was dragged downstairs. We decided not to tell anyone until one of us found an escape.
I laugh and everyone looks to me. "Yeah. Want to go to room." I say and internally groan. My voice and words are always wrong when I say them out loud but in my head and using the mind link it comes out fine. The verbal part messes me up every time. Oh, and my mate is a mind reader. He has heard all our conversations when we talk by him. He could have joined in but it would have been suspicious.
I just stare at her in shock. My sister is good at keeping secrets. I wonder what else she is hiding. I dont know what it is but something tells me there is something else she hasn't shared. What are you hiding? I ask. That's for another time sis. Also you might want to pay attention. We are about to go down the basement stairs to our 'room' I don't even remember leaving the school.
We get to our room and Josh let's out a loud growl. Instinctively Em and I both whimper. Then you hear a growl from down in a cell. "Little mate! You have found a way out?" The rogue asks. "Uh, Leo?" She says. "Yeah?" He asks. "We've got company." She states. "I know. I recognize my older brother's growl anywhere! Hey, Josh? Wanna let me out so we can get home and I can resume my Beta duties?" He asks.
"Rogue! Be quiet." Matthew growls. "Don't growl at my brother. He is coming home with me as well. I am not leaving my family here. All three of them-" he is cut off by a kids whimper. I walk to the cell where there is a four year old. "Hi! What you name?" I ask her. "I Cammie. Or Cam or Cameron. Any works. I want out of here." She cries. "Why you in cell?" I ask softly. "Meanie Matthew put me here because I'm a runt. Mommy didn't want me. So he says I belong with all the other unwanted people. Down here in the dark cells. I no have home. Please let me out!"
I look at Josh who nods. "Ok." I say. I look at the cell door and kick it in. She runs out and I scoop her up. Josh clears his throat. "Where was I? Oh yes. All four of them are coming with me. If you ever have another runt send them to me. Each time you do I'll give you a nice car for your pack." He says knowing my brother's weakness for cars. "I'd ask you to let my brother out but I assume my mate-" he doesn't get to finish his sentence as I have already kicked his door in as well.
"We will be on our way. I hope you really start to feel bad for how you treat your pack. A good Alpha takes care of all his pack members and only punishes the ones who purposely do wrong. They dont punish for how one was born. It is even worse that you would treat your own sisters this way. Family is everything. It makes me sick knowing that you dont feel remotely guilty." Josh says.
And with that I walk away from the only home I've ever known. It is time for my new beginning.
