Chapter 2: Good Morning

*Picture of Emma Steel*

*The wolf on the hill is never as hungry as the wolf climbing the hill*

"Please don't tell me you're dead." I rolled my head to the side to see Emma leaning up on her elbows staring at me. "Cause that would be really tragic to die on your eighteenth birthday" Rolling my eyes at her I just groaned and pulled my purple sheets over my head. "Nope, I will have none of that missy!" The sound of her feet hitting the floor was the only warning I got before she flung herself at me. "You. Will. Not. Be. Mopey. Today!" She dragged out every single word as she bounced on me. Unable to take it any longer I grabbed her though the blanket and started ticking her, laughing along with her.

I was only carefree like this when I was with her, she had a way of refusing to let me crawl into my own personal hole and away from the world. "Do you give? Say mercy!" I half laughed and half growled. When she only grunted and tried to pull away. I ramped up the tickling and went for her feet. They were her weakness. Knowing my intent, she squealed like a pig and rolled.

Straight onto the floor.

Taking me with her.

We both landed with a umph and I was sure everyone in the pack house heard the racket we were making. Not that Emma cared, but I tried to crawl out from underneath before someone came into check on her. Which they always did.

Right on cue Zachary swung the door open, along with his two lackeys who followed him around like sick puppy's, and demanded to know what happened. Emma only laughed even harder at her brother's angry face.

Wiping the tears from her eyes she put on a pouty face and asked "What? Where is our happy birthday my two cute sisters, huh?" Being under the blanket still, I couldn't see his face but I was glad. I could practically still feel his eyes shooting daggers at me through the thin sheet. She must have caught a certain look of disgust on his face and started to growl loudly. "Stop that right now. Not today." Hearing the anger lacing her voice, I finally pulled myself out from under my safety net. Emma started to stand and I mocked her movement. I had to contain my laughter because she stood there in nothing but a pair of the most ugly hello kitty panties and the matching baggy shirt. She wasn't even the slightest scary looking but she damn sure thought she was. I was in the same attire, but no hello kitty for me. I preferred solid colors than anything with print on it.

Emma crossed her arms over her chest which only shortened her baggy shirt, showing all of her underwear and a little bit of stomach now. Not that nudity ever bothered the pack because it was natural for them, but I caught Zach's lackeys eyeing her lower reign and it tore a snarl from my throat. Stepping in front of her, I could feel my eyes changing and fangs starting to push through my gums. "Lift your eyes or lose them." Zach remained in place, his eyes changing to the typical golden color for wolves, while the other two took a step back. I held the larger ones eye contact for no longer than a few seconds till he caved and bowed his head.

Weak.

I smiled internally at the win but it was quickly replaced with my usual blank stare when Zachary moved to stand directly in front of me, showing his teeth. "You are NOT to challenge my wolves mutt!" he spat at me.

His wolves, god the power was going straight to his head. He's been Alpha for maybe two months and he was still on probation. At the age of twenty one, the first born male took over the pack from their father but for the first three months they were still required to report to the previous Alpha just to make sure everything was going smoothly.

Resisting the urge to roll my eyes, I dropped his eye contact. My beast mentally begging me to challenge him, she was confidant that we were more dominant then him and that wiping his ass across the floor would be a breeze. It was becoming harder and harder to hold her back, and incidences like this were not helping. His smirk made us want to rip his throat but I managed to keep it together though I could feel her very close to the surface. "You will do well to remember your place mutt. I won't be a forgiving as my parents." Of course not.

Emma squeezed in between us and pushed her brother back. "She isn't the one you should be yelling at." Pointing towards the two with their head still bowed, she started again. "You will do well to keep your pervy friends away from us unless they want they want to castrated." Pushing him completely from the room, she slammed the door in his shocked face and spun around to face me with a huge grin on her face.

She started to speak but I put my finger to my lips telling her to be silent and tapped my ear. Even though Emma was a wolf shifter and had excellent hearing, she tended to forget about heightened senses of the rest of the pack including her brothers.

Waiting until I could no longer hear them, I nodded at her letting her know they were out of range. Bouncing back and forth on the balls of her feet she laughed out loud. "Did you see their faces when your eyes went dark! I thought they were gonna piss themselves!" I only shook my head. Emma loved when my beast came forth, she found her interesting and constantly wanted to see more of her but I knew better than that. My beast was dangerous.

I chose to ignore her comment. "So what are you doing today?"

She only huffed and moved to our closet. "What are WE going to do today. You're not getting out of our birthday. Hashtag sorry not sorry." She started pulling out different outfits, trying to decided what we were going to wear. Yes, I said we. She has being in control of my outfits for as long as I can remember. Thankfully she stopped trying to put me in frilly little dresses and stuck to either a pair nice shorts or jeans with a cute top. "We are going to spend our day in town, maybe catch a movie or go on a shopping spree and blow all of daddy's money." I laughed knowing we would spend his money either way, he had truly messed up the day he gave her her own credit card. "And then, we are going to go to the cute little cafe and you will sing for me since that's my own birthday wish." Turning to me she smiled sweetly and threw a few items of clothing at me. "Get dressed. No objections."

Greaaattt...
