Chapter 3:
I don't remember falling asleep, but I guess I did. The lights in my room were off, and weirdly, I was in my bed and my covers on top of me. I don't remember going to sleep in my bed, all I remember is falling asleep in my desk while I was doing all the homework.
I sat up and rubbed my eyes.
What time was it?
I got up and walked over to my phone which I left next to my textbook. It was nearly midnight. I opened the door to my room and there was light from the living room on. That's weird. Harry is usually the one to sleep early.
I walked out of my room and walked to the kitchen. I served myself a glass of water and took a sip of it. I heard voices coming from the living room.
Did Harry have company over?
This late at night?
Is it that Harrison guy again?
I slightly opened the door to the living room as I heard the front door slam shut and I heard glass shattering. I jumped and gasped. My heart started to beat fast. The voices immediately got quiet.
Oh crap!
I looked down at my feet and it was me that dropped the glass. I opened the door to the living room and I see different pairs of eyes on me.
"Uh-," I started but I was cut off by Harry.
"Aileen!" Harry said from the corner. "What happened?"
I looked down at myself to see the glass shattered on the floor. "I woke up and came for a glass of water." I said quietly as I looked around at the strangers in my room. "And then some door slamming caused me to drop this." I said as I motioned at the ruined glass.
Harry got up and came towards me. "Excuse me everyone." He said. As soon as he got to the kitchen he closed the door and went to go get the broom and dust pan.
"What's going on Harry?"
"A new job that I may get." He muttered.
"New?"
"Yes, for the town. It's a small meeting about it."
"What was the door slamming?"
Harry sighed and he threw the pieces of glass on the trash. "I thought you were sleeping. I went to check up on you and well I found you passed out on your desk."
So was Harry the one that put me in my bed? I nodded. "I was thirsty and now I'm hungry." Okay the last part was a total lie.
"Fine, but stay here, please, and there may be leftovers on the-,"
The living room door opened and someone walked in into the kitchen as I went to the fridge to look for left overs. I skimmed over the fridge and I couldn't find anything.
"Harry-," The most beautiful deep voice of an angel rang through my ears. I wanted to stop, to turn around and just look at the god himself who was talking.
"Yes . . .?" Harry said.
I swallowed and continued to look for food. I could feel my face turning red just at the sound of his voice.
"I-I-I . . . mat-ma-," The guy said.
I stopped doing what I was doing and turned around to face him. I didn't make eye contact but I could see that he was taller than Harry, and he was wearing khakis and a black polo.
"Oh Zander, this is my sister," Harry said slowly and he swallowed.
I looked at Harry. "I'm not your sister."
I heard a faint growl.
I looked at Zander, oh my god! His face was perfect. As if he was made only for me. Jawline, pink plump lips, dark brown eyes that matched mine, a pair of hoops sat on his ears, and he looked about two or three years younger than Harry.
Wait what am I saying?
"I'm his step sister." I said as I snapped out of what was going on with me.
As soon as I said that, Harrison walked in and looked at me and smiled. "Oh hey, you're back, hun."
Zander's face snapped at his and gave Harrison the dirtiest glare.
Okay? That was super weird. "Yes," I said.
Harrison came up to me and hugged me sideways. Okay? "I thought you weren't going to come back." He said as he pulled me to the way of where my room was.
"I need another moment." I heard Zander say in a rough and deeper voice.
"Alpha Zander," Harry just stood there and froze all of a sudden, as I gave him a confused look.
"I heard a glass breaking and as soon as you opened the door I saw it all over your legs and your feet. Are you okay?" Harrison told me.
I nodded and tried to take in of what just happened.
"Are you sleepy?" He yawned; a fake yawn. "Well I don't know about you but I am, and wow! Look at the time, it's late for you and Harry told me you two always go to school early, so go on . . ." He said.
I gave him a confused look. "What?"
"Go to sleep."
I furrowed my eyebrows. Where did Zander go? I want to see him.
"Do you want me to read you a bed time story?"
I shook my head and furrowed my eyebrows.
"Well go on, good night, hun." Harrison said as he winked at me and left to go to the living room. I felt my eyes widening and I entered my room and I locked my door. I sighed and fell my back to my bed.
What a crazy eventful night this has been.
*Zander's POV:*
I growled and mind linked Harrison to go the living room in the Richards' house. I calmed down and take deep breaths. Once I knew that I was calmed down, I go back inside the Richards' house and go to the living room to see everyone looking back at me with confused looks plastered on their faces.
"Listen up," I said in my Alpha tone. "That girl right there is my mate," I like the way in sounded. Harry's step sister is my mate.
"My step sister is your mate?" Harry said in a surprise tone.
I nodded at him and looked at the guys sitting on the living room. "She's going to be your future Luna. I don't want you all to be flirting with her. She's mine."
Harrison looked at me and smiled. "I knew she was your mate that is why I purposely flirted with her."
"Hello?" My new third in command/Gamma spoke up. "Is everyone going to ignore the fact that her step brother, Harry, me, is here in the room also?"
We all chuckled at him.
Finally found my mate. I heard Magnus in the back of my head. I knew he was ecstatic and wanted to go over to her and meet her. I wanted to, but I knew if I wanted to keep her and meet her, then I would have to do it the way humans did it, which means taking time and patience.
"But, seriously talking, she's my mate and the future Luna so no one looks at her but me." I established proudly but as also gave a look to Tyler who had a small smirk on his face.
***So here's chapter 3! We've now seen and met our dearest Alpha Zander. Now, the original story that I wrote when I was younger didn't include Zander's POV, so I was just nice enough and wrote one 😄, because why not? Also yes his wolf's name is Magnus. Haha when I wrote this book, I believe I was reading Cassandra Claire's The Immortal Instruments (I don't remember which book I was reading at the time lol) and I became obsessed with the character of Magnus Bane.
It's almost 1 in the morning and I have class tomorrow, ugh, I'm tired . . . and hungry lol. Anyways, I hope you guys enjoyed this chapter! Please comment, vote, & follow! Thanks!!!***
