Brother’s Best Friends Are My Mates 36.Medicine
LiaI was getting closer and closer to starting college soon. It was going to be such a change and I was nervous. What were Simone and I going to do when we headed onto campus that first day? It was beyond anything we had ever attended before.Imagine going from our medium-sized high school to a large local college campus. But I was looking forward to this next step.Whenever I brought it up around the guys, I did notice they tensed a little. It was as if they didn’t want to see me go to college or were nervous about me being on the campus surrounded by all those alphas and betas.There were omegas too, but why would they be worried about omegas?I wasn’t going to have it if they started in with their jealousy again. One part of me said at least they weren’t getting jealous of one another, but I didn’t want to see any of it! It was stressful enough starting college and I didn’t need added stress.But, life is full of stressors. No matter how much you try to avoid stress, something wil

RainI can’t believe I’m graduating today.How can that even be possible? It doesn’t seem possible. Something is wrong with me because I’m not as excited as I thought I would be. I’m more nervous, wondering what the hell I’m going to do with my life.None of us had gotten any responses from the scouts. I knew something like this could take time, but it didn’t help my anxiety.What if I didn’t get on any team? Rugby was all I knew. Matt liked to keep pointing out that we had our backup plans but I wanted to respond that I didn’t want my backup plan. I wanted my first choice!It was immature of me to think this so I didn’t say anything.I should be focused on graduation, on this next phase of my life. Look at Lia who had graduated and was thrilled with starting college soon.Speaking of college, the thought of her being there with all those alphas was enough to make me growl with frustration. I didn’t want to think of her on campus with older alphas but what was I going to do? Prevent h

LiaIt was my first day of college and the guys were hovering. I looked over at Colby who leaned against the doorframe, frowning deeply.Try as I might, I couldn’t ignore him. He was persistent, standing there and gazing at me with this worried expression on his face. Then the other guys showed up, all of them looking at me.“Are you okay?”“Why wouldn’t I be?” I shot back, stuffing my water bottle into the side pocket of my bag.He sighed softly, obviously exasperated by my comment, but I didn’t care. I was frustrated with this line of questioning. Why did they even have to question me about this anyway?It was my first day of college. I wanted to enjoy it, to experience my first day on campus without worrying about my future mates being so overprotective and super involved in my life. They should calm down and let me live my life.This is what they got to do!“Because it’s your first day,” he said. “At college. Without us.”“I went to high school without you.”Colby frowned. “But As

LiaAdjusting to college was something that took a little time. But, I was determined to enjoy my newfound freedom on the college campus.Today was no different. Simone picked me up and together we drove to school. We were in the same major so the two of us were constantly together. I don’t know what motivated Simone to become a teacher, but sometimes I feared she was going along with it simply because I was.It would break my heart to know she wasn’t as taken with it as I was. But I didn’t ask, not wanting to rock the boat.Simone and I didn’t have the last class on our schedule together so we split up. I stopped by the library before heading to the car. Alex happened to bump into me as I was leaving, wanting to give me the book I let him borrow.It was a completely innocent thing, but I knew they were going to read more into it. I could hear it in their voices and actual words!When I glanced over Alex’s shoulder, I saw the expression on Colby’s face. Even Rain looked annoyed, much

LiaAfter that awkward pick-up from college, the guys had been on their best behavior. I was pleased to see that they weren’t falling into bad behavior again. It would’ve been a shame, knowing that we had come so far.But then things got complicated again. I was in the process of going off my suppressants and getting a new one. With the old ones still in my system, I was going to be all right for the time being but I needed the new ones.It was all I could think about as I got closer and closer to the time I might start showing symptoms of my heat. What if I broke into heat at school? It wasn’t unheard of and still happens, but it is a rarity in our modern society.Most times people were on suspensions successfully for years until they decided to go off them and not the day before then.However, my medication had been discontinued, leading me to find a new one.

LiaThe lunch I packed for myself remained mostly untouched. I picked up part of the sandwich, took a bite, and struggled to swallow. It felt like ash in my mouth, making me want to spit it out.Folded and shoved into my pocket was the invitation for my coming-of-age ceremony that was delivered to me two weeks ago. With trembling hands, I pulled it out and read it word by word.Official InvitationDear Lia Brown,It is with boundless joy and honor that we invite you to attend your Coming-of-Age Ceremony, a momentous occasion marking this significant milestone in your life.

LiaWhen I came home I was looking forward to being in a quiet house where I could clear my thoughts. But the moment I walked through the door I heard multiple, loud voices coming from the kitchen, the spot my brother and his friends liked to haunt with their imposing presence.Taking a shaky breath, I closed the door as quietly as I could behind me, but not quite enough. Michael, my brother, popped his head into the room, a smirk playing on his lips.“Trying to sneak away without saying hello, little sister?”“I live with you. Why do I have to say hello?” I countered.A deeper voice chuckled, and Colby came to stand on the left side of Michael. He was a little taller than Michael who was already six feet so that was saying something. Colby’s piercing jade green eyes locked onto my tense form, pearly white tease exposed as he smirked.“Lia are you going to go all the way upstairs without saying hello?” he asked.Rain popped up on the other side of Michael. He was the same height as my

LiaWhen I was called to the administrative office the next day, I was a bundle of nerves. I didn’t understand why they called me here. Wasn’t it enough that I handed in the form?With a shaky sigh, I tucked an ebony lock behind my ear. My blue eyes darted around the room, waiting for the staff member to come into the room and talk to me.“Thank you for coming here, Lia Brown.”I resisted the urge to squirm in my seat, even though the urge was great.“I signed the paper and returned it. Why am I here?”She blinked. “Miss Brown you're not in trouble. We just have to move your ceremony to next week to accommodate a speaking guest we booked at the last minute. The staff will be busy with preparations so I hope you can understand.”“What?” I blurted out. “I want to get this over with; not wait another few days!”“Miss Brown please calm down,” the woman muttered, glaring at me from across the desk. “I understand you are eager to find your mates—”“No, you don’t understand because that’s no

LiaI woke up with a pounding headache. The liquor I drank last night had gone right through me, making me act more carefree than I usually did. Normally, I was a more reserved person but last night… I feel like I made a fool of myself.But I had a great time with my pack. I blushed thinking about dancing with the guys, my body pressed against theirs. Parts of their body had started to respond… and I was almost disappointed that nothing came of it.Groaning, I buried my bright red face in the soft pillow below me. How was I going to get through this?I was convinced that the next morning I was going to be embarrassed when I saw them but when I headed downstairs, no one said a thing to me.“Hey guys,” I greeted, blinking when they all turned to me, looking rose for wear. “Are you all okay?”“Depends on what you mean by okay,” Jesse stated, voice flat.“Jesse, even you drank too much?” I asked, gasping softly. “I expected it from say Rain and Colby but not you.”He smirked. “Blame it on
Brother’s Best Friends Are My Mates 34.Teacher
LiaI was unsure of what to do with myself now that I wasn’t in school. In a matter of weeks, I would be starting college soon and I was thrilled. In a few years I would be on my way to becoming a teacher, a profession I always wanted to go into.The guys were on their way to graduating. With their big game this weekend followed by a graduation a week after, they would be moving on to their careers. I know they all hoped they were going to be drafted. It’s all they had talked about for years. A day didn’t go by they didn’t bring it up.Sighing softly, I looked around at the guys who had joined me for a movie. There was a bit of an argument over who would sit with me, but we worked it out. I made it clear no possessive crap around me or that there was going to be problems.Rain asked me point blank if I would be coming to the game. I gave him a look, causing him to blink.“What, why are you looking at me like that? I just want to know if you're coming.”“Rain, of course, I’m going. Thi
Brother’s Best Friends Are My Mates 33.Team
“What do you guys think of adding to the pack?” I asked one morning.The table went silent, everyone pausing in mid-bite or drinking. I shifted uncomfortably, wishing they would say something. It was so quiet you could hear a pin drop!Matt cleared his throat, tone gruff and bordering on a growl. “Who do you want to add?”“Matt, my dude, which sounds a little possessive,” Rain whispered to him, giving him a sharp elbow to the ribs.“You were thinking it too!” Matt accused Rain who shook his head desperately.“I did not!” Rain muttered, casting a glance at Colby. “Colby were you?”Colby rolled his eyes. “I wasn’t thinking it. Jesse?”“I figured she meant Michael and Simone.”My eyes flickered over to Jesse. “Thank you Jesse for injecting some sanity back into the conversation.”“That’s what I am here for.”I giggled. “Anyway, that was what I was thinking. Simone, her mates, Michael, and Gabi have yet to join a pack. Simone still has some time but Michael has only about a month left.”T
Brother’s Best Friends Are My Mates 32.Graduation
ColbyLia’s graduation was almost upon us. It was this weekend and I wanted to do something special for her. All the guys wanted to do something special for her. She was going to be finishing high school and heading into college.It was a shame we all wouldn’t be able to attend the same school together. Me and the guys were going to be graduating from college, hopefully moving onto the next phase of our lives, professional rugby players.Imagine if all of us were scouted to the same team. This would be a dream if I could work beside them all the time. But I was realistic, knowing that I might be drafted by another team. It was always an option when it came to these sorts of things.Once all of us were downstairs, we decided to have a discussion.I leaned back in my chair, tapping my fingers against the table. The others sat around me, waiting for some grand idea. The truth? I had one. It wasn’t grand, though."Okay, listen," I said, glancing at Rain, who was already smirking like he h
