From a Vampire's Brother to a Human's Mate (Book 2: Completed)

Chapter 12

 

Anthony’s POV

I took a deep breath and then entered into Travis’s room.

Travis was awake and his bruises and such on his face were healed just as mine were. He was looking out his window and Julie was asleep, curled up on his chest. He had an arm wrapped around her.

When I stepped into view his head snapped to me.

He put his finger to his lips signaling me to be quiet and I nodded. He smiled down at Julie and I again couldn’t help but be jealous of what they had. This time, though, I replayed what Felix had said after I apologized to him. You’ll have it too . . . one day. And that day you will be the Alpha you are supposed to be.

I smiled at him.

He looked up to me and I lipped, I’m sorry.

He nodded and then replied with, I understand.

I really smiled then. Travis was my Beta and best friend. The last thing I need was him thinking I couldn’t be an Alpha also . . . then I might just refuse the position.

“Are you good?” I whispered.

And he instantly flinched as Julie let out a low growl in her sleep. Well, at least I thought she was a sleep.

“Now you’ve done it,” He shook his head.

Julie instantly sat up and glared at me, “How dare you come in here!” She growled jumping off the bed so that she was in front of me.

“Julie . . .” Travis warned as he sat up.

“No! If he thinks just because he is my future Alpha that I am going to just sit back then he’s wrong!” She snapped at Travis and he sat back with his hands in the air in a surrender.

I instantly looked to Julie getting ready to protect myself without hurting her.

“Julie, I’m so . . .” That was when her hand collided with the side of my face.

“Ouch!” I stumbled back  with my hand to my cheek, “Son of a bitch,” I mumbled looking at my hand to check for blood.

“Yes, you are,” She growled threateningly.

I took a step back to try and sneak away, but a warning growl left her lips and I stopped instantly.

Damn, she’s a strong mate. My wolf approved.

Umm, yeah . . . She scares me more than Dad. She’s like Mom.

“I am not done with you, you piece of Shit!” She snapped.

“I really . . .”

“No!” She cut me off poking a finger at my chest, “You beat Travis unconscious! He is your damn Beta! What the hell is wrong with you! What kind of Alpha does that make you?”

Umm . . . ouch!

“Julie, really . . .”

“Not. Done.” She growled.

“Right,” I nodded and she glared. I stepped back again.

“Do you know what you even turned into out there? God damn it, Anthony, I know Dawn is your mate and I should have told you, but that is no reason to attack me or Travis. I didn’t tell you because I knew you would react like this and you would either get her into trouble or get yourself into trouble. I was protecting you both!” She snapped.
