The Small Whisperer (BoyxBoy)

CHAPTER SEVEN

POV: JACKSON

I can't count the amount of times JJ has cursed me out for making him cry. I didn't mean to make him cry though, I just had to tell him the truth. I'll admit I felt a certain way when I saw his tears but it still had to be done. We can't be like normal mates, ever.

I blame the moon goddess for this.

Chris came inside with a slight frown. "Jackson what happened?. I saw Saint before he left" he asked.

I could hear faint sounds of the kids, they were back. "I just told him the truth" I said flatly.

"The truth, being?" He questioned.

"The truth, Chris. I can't love him like a mate would. I can't replace Anto, Tom and I are okay with it just being us. I don't want a mate" I said getting up, half sitting and half standing on my desk, facing the window.

"No wonder he cried. Who wouldn't cry if their mate told them that? Jackson you didn't have to tell him that." Chris said.

I scoffed. "So I should just forget about Anto and move on because I didn't want to see him cry?"

He sighed. "You know that's not what I meant Jackson. I would never say you should forget about Anto. Never. She was the Luna of this pack, she was my friend."

He walked towards me and stood beside me. "All I'm saying is don't push him away completely. Who knows if you're his first mate? Try to be friends with him first" He told me.

It was quiet for some minutes as I thought about what he said. Being friends with him wouldn't hurt. I can do both; not forget about Anto and still be friends with him.

"I'll leave you to your thoughts man. I've got to check up on the kids, they've been too quiet" he said walking out. I'll have to talk to Saint again later.

And apologize for being a dick while at it. And you wonder why I call you Jackass. Thanks to Chris for knocking some sense into you. Jj said.

I rolled my eyes and ignored him. I don't have time for his bullshit. I'll speak to him later today, to clarify things. With that, I go downstairs to see the kids.

********** (DAYS SKIP)

It's been three days since I last spoke to Saint. I have been postponing speaking to him. I don't know if I just don't care or I was busy.

I looked at the time, it was 4 in the evening. Well, it's too late to go today. I'll go tomorrow.

Just take your lazy ass and go speak to him. You've been postponing this shit for ages. Jj said with frustration.

Fine, I'll go now. I wasn't looking forward to this at all.

And be fast about it. I don't know why but I can feel Alex's distress. I don't know if they're in danger.

I wanted to ask what danger when Chris mind-linked me "There's an attack at the apartment ground. I'm heading there right now"

"Okay, I'll meet you there" I replied rushing out of the house.

POV: SAINT

20 MINUTES AGO

It's been three days since the Alpha invited me to his house. Three days since he told me he would never love me like a mate would. Three days since I last spoke to him. I had cried my eyes out and was tired of crying. I didn't know what I did wrong to deserve this.

I thought back to what my former pack members said. Were they right? Was this my punishment for not being  like an omega should? A mate who won't love me?

I was doing the dishes when a knock at the door brought me out of my thoughts. Mateo and my mom were out looking for jobs and they left an hour ago so that couldn't be them. Wondering who that could be, I dried my hands with the kitchen towel and went to check.

I opened the door to see a woman. She was a bit shorter than me and judging based off her look, she would be in her early forties. I've never seen her before so I was confused on why she was here. She entered the house as if being controlled. That confused me the more.

Or was she friends with my mom and came to see her? "Um excuse me ma'am, are you looking for my mom? She isn't at home right now" I told her.

She turned around, looking at me from head to toe before speaking, "I'm looking for Saint". Her eyes held different emotions. Fear and anger stood out.

"Yeah that's me" I said. Her eyes turned full on  black before she changed into her wolf and lunged at me. I didn't get over the shock quickly causing her to dig into my flesh with her claws, bringing out blood. I fell on the floor with pain and fear in my eyes.

I changed into my wolf, barely escaping her second attempt to kill me. She snarled and charged at me again. I doged, used my paws to grab her from behind and flinged her into a table, causing it to break. The loud noise made the opposite door open, a young man peeking from inside.

I didn't get a chance to see what he did next before the she lunged at me, catching me off guard and pininig my down. Pain surged through me as she scratched my face, attempting to bite my neck before I pushed her off of me.

In anger and pain, I charged at her. I didn't get to her before another wolf slammed me into a wall. My back hurts so much. Three other wolf came in, pinning her down while the one who slammed into me attempted to do the same thing. I didn't know who they were and backed into the wall. They could be here to attack me as well.

I sneeked a glance and saw the woman had been forced to shift back into human. Her hands were held back by a man now. Two wolves were in front of me now, snarling, telling me to shift back. I didn't, I don't trust them. Irritation seeped off them and one try to lunged at me.

"Stop" a voice shouted behind them. They halted immediately. Then it hit me, that scent I had come to love and hate.

He walked towards us and stood in front of them, staring at me intently. "Shift" he commanded. I shifted back immediately, panting, with my hands and knees on the floor. My body ached, my arms were bleeding and I was sure my face bled a little form the  scratches.

He turned towards the woman then she started to talk. "I- I didn't mean to alpha. They told me t-to" she pleaded, her voice scratchy.

"Who told you to?" His deep voice bellowed through the walls of the apartment.

"T-the voices Alpha, the v-voices told me to" she replied. I didn't need to see the look on his face as well as others to know they were confused. What is she talking about?

"What? What voices?" He asked.

"T-the small voices Alpha, t-they keep telling me to k-kill saint" she said and fell forwards, loosing consciousness.

What in the moon goddess is happening?
