Just Accept Me

Ch. 7 Oh Man

XANDER'S POV

     " I'm sorry, sir."  My scowl deepened. Where is she? Is she safe? Why did she run! Does she not want me?

     All of these questions kept cycling through my head, giving me a head ache. It has already been days and none of my men have been able to track my mate down, or even find any sign of her existence. I was beginning to wonder if she even existed in the first place or if I had conjured her up n my mind. I sighed, suddenly feeling stressed.

Where is my beta when I need him?

Just when I thought that, a tired looking Alex came in. "Hey, man."  He said tiredly, running his hands down his face.

"Dude, what happened to you? You look like you got ran over by a truck," I said while looking at him with concern. Alex and I had grown up together, we were basically kin. 

"I don't know man. I'm worried for my little sis, you know? She' snot acting like her usual self." He sighed out, and that's when I smelled a scent that was strangely familiar with me but at the same time new. I just couldn't place a finger on it. What is that smell?

"I'm sorry for that, dude. How come I've never seen her before?" I tried to comfort him but couldn't help bit wonder. Is she too shy or something? Too scared? I don't know. But it is weird that she doesn't come out at all.  I think I have only met her a handful of times when we were very young. I pray to the goddess that she is nothing like Brittany.

"The truth?" He paused, making me furrow my eyebrows. We never hesitated to share anything with each other. "My family is jealous and afraid of her... of what she can do... so they hide her away so no one can compare her to them, so that she can never be better than them.  Well the women. My father and I have no other choice but to follow them. Girls can be so demanding and needy. The worse thing is that 'Katherine' doesn't even try to defend herself!-" at the name, my heart leaped in my chest and I felt my wolf stir for the first time in days.

Then it suddenly hit me why the scent stuck out so much... He must have been with my mate! But in what way? I fumed as I thought of another man touching my mate in an inappropriate way. Or even touching her in general. I would kill them for it. She is mine and only mine! 

I had a theory, and I pray to the goddess that I am correct. Taking deep breaths I asked my beta something I have never asked nor thought to ask before.

"Can I meet your little sister?"

You know the drill. The chapter was a bit shorter than the last but a lot longer than the original writing.
