Ice Princess (Little Alpha Book 2)

Chapter 82

All morning, Violet kept close after making Zoey get up and dressed for the day.  She would find reasons to poke at me and tease, but I knew it was to hide how much she was hurting.  When a knock came at the door she smirked and disappeared.

It didn't take long as to know why as I heard a crash and liquid spilling.  "WHAT THE FUCK, VIOLET?!"

Zoey laughed from her barstool.  "She told you, ZayZay."

I smiled as I saw my mates mischievous grin when she returned.  "What did you do?"

She giggled.  "Nothing."

I rolled my eyes and went to inspect, but there was no evidence of what happened.  "How..."

She giggled again.  "No clue what your talking about."

Zoey swung her legs, equally as pleased.  "Now, he will be late.  Poor ZayZay... poor, poor ZayZay."

Violet's eyes clouded a bit before she frowned.  "He wants to die... Zoey how would you feel about being brotherless?"

She sighed.  "Well..."

The flash of purple that followed took me off guard and I stroked her cheek.  "Tell me what you did, my love."

She pouted as her anger vanished.  "No, but I'll tell you what I'm about to do."

I raised my eyebrows.  "What?"

She stormed out of the door.  "Commit murder."

My head fell as I heard flesh on flesh contact.  "Vio-"

I slowly walked out.  "Can't just leave well enough alone, can you?"

She was on her twin's back, choking the dear life from him.  He couldn't speak under her hold and I sighed as I hugged her waist from behind.  "You can't..."

She growled as I unraveled her from him and he gasped for air.  "Tha-"

Her hand whipped out and he clutched his throat, again trying to breathe.  "Violet..."

She heaved a breath and let him go, but not before he fell to the ground.  "Always on his side.  I hate you both."

She freed herself and went back inside, slamming the door for emphasis.  Her sudden changes in mood were making my dizzy.  "I don't know what you said... let's try to avoid it next time."

Xavuer smirked as he got to his feet.  "She's fine.  I'd be more worried if she just let it slide, she'll recover.  We will see to that, we always do."

Aurora appeared and looked him over.  "Testing the waters already?"

He chuckled.  "Why not mess with her a little?"

Shw sighed.  "Well, we know what to do at least."

I looked between them.  "Wha-"

They met my gaze, serious.  "When one hurts... we all hurt."

Aurora walked past me.  "We've got this handled.  You on the other hand, well, you still have a long way to go."

I stared at the door as Violet went from enraged to annoyed.  "You can't stay."

I whipped around to her brother.  "What?"

He sighed, watching the house, blue eyes slightly glazed.  "She told me what you said.  She is my twin and we have no secrets.  You need to return home, to your pack."

My jaw tightened.  "She sai-"

He focused on me.  "You want your entire pack... the people you grew up with to die?"
