The Lonely Rogue

Chapter 47 Junie

"You know, Mack is from the original families." Ally said as we sat in the living room watching TV. Mack, Nikki, and Cole were on duty today.

"Really?" I turned around to look at Mack who was standing off in the corner.

"Yes, Luna. I'm from Alpha Noah Landry's bloodline out of Blood Moon. My grandparents were Meredith and Jack Landry." Mack explained in a quiet voice.

"Hm." I said thoughtfully.

"We're very proud of our family lineage around here." Ally laughed

"Don't you hate always being compared to your family's accomplishments and failures?" I asked Mack and he perked up at my question,

"It can make it hard to be your own person, Luna." Mack said,

"I understand that all too well." I replied before turning back around on the couch.

Ally gave me a strange look but I just shrugged. She went back to flipping through the channels and settled on a Christmas movie.

"Christmas in June?" I asked and Ally laughed,

"It's never too early to start watching Christmas movies." She said.

"They all seem exactly the same toe." Nikki mumbled.

"That's because they literally have the same exact plot." Cole agreed

"Oh, bah humbug!" Ally complained loudly.

"Ally, you in here?" A voice I didn't recognize called through the castle.

Ally turned towards the door just as a young boy walked in. He stuttered to a stop when he saw me, his face immediately turning red. He was clearly Ally's age, no more than 16 years old, with black hair and blue eyes. He was dressed finely in khaki pants and a silky red, button down shirt.

"Austin!" Ally giggled, jumping up from the couch and running towards the boy. Nikki, Mack, and Cole watched her with smug expressions. I seemed to be the only one confused.

"You didn't tell me you weren't alone." I heard him mumble as he hesitantly hugged Ally.

"Oh, this is my new sister, Caspian's mate, Junie." She grinned, pointing at me. I stood up and smiled at Austin, moving towards the pair.

"Queen Luna." Austin quickly detangled himself from Ally and bowed his head.

"It's okay, Austin, you can just call me Junie." I waved off his politeness and shook his hand.

"Oh, it's nice to meet you." Austin said, rubbing the back of his neck with an embarrassed expression.

"Are you two....friends?" I asked and Austin's face actually got redder.

"Sure." Ally smirked at me and I knew immediately that they were not just friends.

"Does your brother know about this?" I cocked an eyebrow and Ally's smirk turned down in a frown, "I'll take that as a no."

"Please don't tell him." Ally begged me.

"He's gonna find out eventually, you know?" I said, shaking my head in disapproval.

"You'd be surprised." Ally huffed and I couldn't help but laugh.

"Just don't do anything stupid or we'll all be in big trouble." I said, giving her a stern expression.

"You're the best!" Ally squealed, throwing her arms around my neck.

"Yeah, yeah, yeah." I scoffed sarcastically as she kissed my ass.
