Chapter 6- What makes the difference?

Elizabeth set the table and glanced up at at the boys. The television was on but no one watched it. Both Victor and Lucas, whom sat close to each other, glared at Christian, whom was on the other end. Christian was glaring back, unwavering under the other two alphas. She really admired that in Christian. He was always so.. she frowned, unable to think of the word. He was a great person and she was glad he was here. That was that. Sighing, she placed food on the table and studied them a moment longer. "Alright guys, lunch is ready." None of them moved, not even flinched at the sound of her voice. Elizabeth growled lowly. How dare they ignore her! They maybe trying to assert their alpha dominance but that gave them no right to ignore her! She walked over to them and placed her hands on her hips.

     "I don't care how much you hate each other," she began quite angrily. "But don't ever ignore me. Now, get in the dining room for lunch!" The three males finally looked up staring at her. All of there eyes were vibrant, signifying their wolves were at the surface. "Well?!"she pointed harshly at the food filled table and the men whined. Detestedly, they all stood and walked to the table. However, once they began to eat, they ate as if they have never eaten before in their life. Elizabeth rolled her eyes and sat between her mates and Christian. "So, Christian," she began, glaring at her mates when they growled lowly. "When is your ceremony?" Christian perked up at the topic and grinned widely. "In a week and a half. Dad said it is time I take over. He wants more... time with mom." Both Christian and Elizabeth shivered at the thought. Sure, they were adults and were very comfortable with the topic of sex, they still found it unnerving when it came to her parents and his. They were like family, so yeah.

   Elizabeth and Christian spoke throughout lunch while her mates were silent, huffing at certain points. "Well, thank you, Elizabeth." Christian said after the dishes had been done, him helping her. "Was very delicious but Dad is calling me back." He grinned and tapped his head. "Of course! You are welcome here any time!" Christian smiled and hugged the small female. "Good. I'll see you soon. Be careful, yeah? And keep in contact." Elizabeth grinned and laughed when he booped her nose. "I will." Christian glanced at the two men and then walked out. Once alone, Elizabeth turned to face Lucas and Victor. "And you two," she began, her brows furrowing. "You will treat him like a welcomed guest!" She yelled and both men whined. She felt... invigorating. Here were two incredibly strong(both physically and mentally) alphas, whining to her! 

     She giggled internally and watched as her men stood and sandwiched her between them. They both began to apologize and say it was because he still was aroused by her and Elizabeth was just not having it! Besides, she already decided on a punishment for them still acting like they did with Chris. "That's fine." She murmured, shivering as they peppered her with light kisses wherever they could. But, she resisted and pulled away. "But, no sex for two days." They gawked at her. "Excuse me?" Lucas growled, staring her down. Victor, however, was silent but, he was shocked no doubt. "Yes, Lucas." She replied, jabbing her index finger into his hard, muscled chest. God he was sexy... both of them were but, they did treat her best friend like crap AFTER she told them not too. "But why?" Lucas whined, his gorgeous eyes boring into hers. "Well, I will allow you to ponder on that. Now, I am sure you have duties to attend to. I'm going to go introduce myself." Lucas snarled and went to snatch her but Victor placed a hand on his brother's arm to stop him.

    Elizabeth grinned and walked out of the door, walking through the pack. She was quite pleased with her self. Maybe they will learn to not treat her friends like that. She huffed and watched as a pup ran across the grass to run away from his friends who were not too far behind him. Elizabeth smiled and subconsciously rubbed her belly. "It gets worse when your body is closer to heat." A voice piped up. Elizabeth looked beside her to see a girl roughly her age and height with beautiful cascades of brown hair. She looked like what you would expect a werewolf to be. Her features were Native American. Which type? Elizabeth had no idea but this woman definitely had beautiful tan skin and accented features. "Oh, I'm Ariabella." Elizabeth grinned. This woman was seemingly perfect with perfect features and a beautiful name to match. "And who are you? I don't think I've ever seen you before... let alone caught your scent before this." Elizabeth frowned. Surely she knew, right?

     "I just got back from India. My parents moved there a few years ago. They're.. well, culture enthusiasts. " Nodding, Elizabeth grinned and shook Ariabella's hand. "I'm Elizabeth. Lucas and Victor's mate." Something switched in Ariabella in that instant. Elizabeth saw a flicker of of.. something in her eyes. "Oh? Well, how fun." Elizabeth nodded. "How come yo-" Ariabella put a hand up. "It's touchy.. but, I can't shift. So, I don't have as strong of a nose as the others." There was silence save for the wind in the trees around them and the laughing of children. It was definitely an awkward silence. "Well, I hope we can get to know each other better!" Elizabeth said to break the silence. "Yeah, me too." Ariabella muttered, her smile wide but obviously faked before she turned and left. Had she said something wrong? Elizabeth was thoroughly confused but, might as well as shrug it off. So with that, she walked to the kids and grinned at them. "Who wants to play hide and seek?" They all squealed and scrambled out to hide. With a giggle, Elizabeth closed her eyes and began her count to ten.  As she was, she thought that maybe, to keep up on her punishment, she would sleep in one of the guest rooms. Of course, her wolf absolutely hated the idea but, her mates deserved it for being a*ses to her best friend!

       She could feel Victor lingering in the back of her mind and she sighed softly, pleased with the thought. She was glad he was checking up on her. But, her thoughts came to an end as she began to 'search' for the hidden pups. Of course, they had begun to giggle and she chased them around, allowing her wolf to growl playfully at them. After god knows how long, their mothers began to come gather them, thanking their Luna for entertaining their pups. Elizabeth was glad to do so. They were her family now. Her pack. She beamed at the thought. Sure, Beta was a huge role and they usually did have alpha blood in their veins but, being an alpha was different. It allowed a different feeling go through your body. A hand brushed along her arm and she leaned back into the hard chest. "Lucas," she mumbled and glanced up to see her mate gazing at her. "I'm sorry for how we acted with your friend." He murmured and held her closer. "It's ok, Lucas." She smiled and turned to face him. His eyes searched hers before cupping her cheek and kissing her gently, passionately.

     Elizabeth mentally groaned. This man was not going to help with her resolve to punish them... a moan escaped her lips and her head tilted back. Fine, maybe just a little tease. His hands gripped her hips tightly, bringing her to his. "Careful, Alpha." She purred and thread her fingers into the curly ends of his hair. "There are pups around." She giggled and he nipped at the other side of her neck which was bare. Goose-bumps began to rise on her arms at the feel of his lips and a shudder ran down her spine at the thought of both her mate's marks on either side of her neck. D*mnit.. with all her will and much of her(and her wolf's) dismay, she pulled away, placing a finger on his lips. "Uh uh, Alpha," she whispered and kissed his jaw bone. "You still aren't getting anything from me." He groaned and sighed. "Fine." He stiffened and she could see the walls go up in his mind....figuratively of course. However, she could see those wheels of his spinning like clock work. This man was definitely planning something...

      "I'll see you at dinner." His hand wrapped around her hair and he tugged, exposing he neck. Elizabeth gasped and shivered. "And my lovely little mate? Don't be late." He winked, sucked on her neck a second, causing her to gasp and moan before he left, walking in the direction of the center pack meeting house. She growled softly and immediately shifted before running into the forest. Did she know these wood? No. But, that would not stop a frustrated she-wolf. No, not this one. Her claws dug into the soft dirt as she pushed her self into the air for a long lunge. She landed on a large rock, nearly slipping but still, she made it. The crisp smell of pine and oak filled her lungs and she sighed contentedly. It was heaven. The smell of nature was perfect, especially as a wolf. She shook her brown fur and lied on the large boulder, looking out with her head on her paws. Now this, she could definitely get comfortable with.
