You Started it, Brother

Chapter 6

Brian's P.O.V

I saw Nic and Elliot coming into the clearing. There face red with anger, obviously towards each other. "Ready to began?" I asked Nic, smirking.

"If you can keep up," she replied, smugly.

"Please. Like a runt can beat me." Okay. That was low. But hey! she started it.

She grinned challengingly. "Elliot, please release her." Elliot nodded and obediently took off the cuffs.

Nicole rubbed her wrists. Turning to the group, I announced, "2 laps around the lake in wolf form." Turning to Nic, I asked with fake concern, "is that okay? Because if you need to do less, I understand."

Nic thought for a moment, than asked, "what is that, 12 miles?"

"Yeah, is there a problem?"

"Yes, actually. Do you mind if I do 4? I actually want a good workout."

"4? Really? yeah sure. Just don't slack." She nodded and went behind a tree to change.

Nicole's P.OV

2 laps? Come on! I trained with the best werewolf warriors there is and was on top with them at that. I changed and bolted from the tree. Flying past a very shocked Brian, I ran around the lake passing wolf after wolf. Lapping Brian and everyone else, I finished my 4 at the same time as everyone else did there 2.

Brian came out from around a tree after he changed and told me to change too. Jogging back from the tree, I saw that everyone had finished there change and was doing push ups. Brian jogged towards me and informed me to do 400 push ups and 500 sit ups. I looked at him confused, "just 400 and 500?"

"You can add a hundred to each of those, if you need too." I nodded and got down on the ground to get started.

I finished before everyone else so I started to do stretches. Brian and Elliot both finished next. "I think that's all for you today, Nicole," Brian told me. Honestly, I was a little sad. "Elliot, would you mind taking Nicole back to the house? You have patrol tonight so that will make up for what you miss." Elliot nodded and took out a pair of hand cuffs (seriously, where do they get those?!)

The walk back to the house was a awkward silence. When we reached my bedroom, the door locked and the handcuffs removed once again, I showered and changed into sweats and a sweatshirt. I was looking in the mirror when Elliot came in behind me. "What's wrong?" He asked.

I pointed at my neck where 5 little bruises lay. "I think Brian needs anger management," I told him.

He chuckled. I turned around and asked, "what are you laughing about? you right up there with him!" shocked my accusation, he questioned me asking, how.

I pulled up my sweatshirt reveling a bruise that went straight across my rib cage from falling on the railing earlier that morning.

Elliot's far was now filled with shock. "Oh my gosh, Nic! I am so sorry!" he cried.

I turned away from him, closing my eyes to the mirror. "Nic?" he whispered, resting his hand on my shoulder.

"Don't." I growl, my golden eyes shooting open, meeting his in the mirror. He sighs and walks from the bathroom.

Brian's P.O.V

I was shocked when Nicole asked to run twice the laps as the rest of us, even more shocked when she questioned the amount of sit ups and push ups, added a hundred to each and still finished before everyone else.

Sick of seeing my sister beat me at my own game, I sent her back to the pack house. I mind linked Elliot a hour later after I sent everyone else home after training, 'find out where she went when she left, someone had to have trained her.'

'Yeah, that won't work right now. Give me a hour, though. Maybe she'll come out by then.'

'What do you mean, come out?!'

'I may or may not have completely ticked her off..'

I sighed. My sister can hold one heck of a grudge. 'If only we knew her mate. He could talk sense into her' I joked.

'Yeah about that...I meant tell you earlier but, I'm Nicki's mate.'
