His Young Mate (rewriting)

Chapter 1*

Storm's POV

I was just finishing up some paperwork when I heard footsteps bounding down the hallway followed by my door getting swung open, before I could open my mouth I felt multiple impacts. I let out a grunt hitting the floor, "we missed you!!" I heard the voice of my little sister followed by chimes of laughter from the rest of my siblings.

I heard two more pairs of foot steps walk through the door and then my mom's voice, "Get off your brother you lot!!" As annoyed as I felt, I was also happy to be see them. It's been close to 3 years since I saw them last, it's a busy job being an Alpha, a lot busier than I thought it would've been.

I finally pushed my way off the ground laughing at the sight of my siblings piled up on the ground. "Atticus aren't you a little too old to be doing things like that? Emerson I can understand but really?" I raised an eyebrow at him and he laughed. 

"I thought I could bring back the memories of how we were when we were kids." I smiled and walked over, giving them both one of my hands to pull them up off the ground. 

"Okay since that disaster is over, why the hell are you guys here? It's been forever." I said with maybe a bit too much passive aggressiveness.

My mom shot me a sad glance, "I'm sorry bubs, we've been busy back at home but we wanted to make it up to you. We came here to celebrate your birthday with you." Did I really forget about my own birthday? 

Emerson spoke up, "don't tell me you forgot your own birthday?" I pondered how to answer that question but luckily we didn't need to.

"Babe!!" I heard someone someone scream with loud footsteps followed, well someone fucked up. Atticus laughed and shot me a glance before speaking up, "I'll be right back". About 5 minutes he came back up stairs with a suitcase and a beautiful woman with red hair.

Atticus set down the luggage, "Aria, this is Storm my brother, Storm this is Aria my mate."

"It's very nice to finally meet you, I hope your stay can be enjoyable." I smiled holding out my hand. 

She grabbed my hand and shook it, "this main pack house is absolutely beautiful and everyone is so welcoming, thank you opening up your space for us." I smiled and shook my head.

Weirdly enough even though we are an Alpha family, I've noticed that most of us don't meet our mates until much later in life, even though Alpha families are usually the ones that meet their mates as soon as they gain their wolf form.

"Where is Jasper?" Atticus is the oldest, then there's me, Jasper, then Emerson. My parents had Emerson a lot later in life for only god knows why. 

"I'm not sure actually, he probably got lost honestly. I know his mate, Blair is with him though so they'll find their way around here soon enough." I nodded my head.

"I think it's time to show you all your rooms, it's getting really late and you guys have been driving all day." I started towards the door while finishing what I was saying. 

I walked through the hallways, I've always loved the way everything is decorated, the walls are an off white color with darker wood flooring. We had pictures of the past Alpha's up across the wall, plus a lot of plants and flowers to decorate more.

I opened up a door one down from my office, "Atticus and Aria, you two can have this one." It was a pretty plain room, just dark blue walls and white carpet. It had a dresser;a big bed with white sheets;and a door off to the right which lead into a bathroom. "If you two need anything, just tell me." 

I finally finished showing everyone their rooms, and just as I sat down on my bed I heard a knock on my door, "yes?" I called out. The door opened up and it was Emerson, she had a stuffed bunny that I gave to her back when she was much younger. 

"I just thought we could talk a bit, it has been years since I've actually seen you." I patted a spot next to me on the bed. 

"Is there anything in particular you want to talk about?" I asked as she sat down on the bed.

"Kind of, I was just wondering how you deal with watching everyone around you find their mates when you don't know if or when you'll find yours?" 

I thought hard before answering her question, "well, I guess you get used to it after a while. Sure it's hard at first but after a while you realize that you just aren't meant to find your mate right then and there and you have to be okay with that." 

She looked up at me with tears in her eyes, "I just see all my friends finding their mate and I don't know if I ever will." I decided words can't really help situations like this so I pulled her closer and hugged her. 

"It'll be okay, I promise."

A/N Hi I hope you liked it!

I'm basically re-doing this whole book so if you've just started reading this book, the chapters that don't have a * after them won't make much sense since those are the chapters I haven't re-wrote yet!

Thank you for your patience <3
