Jordan POV.
She's moving out of our room, but why would she do that, she can't leave me, I'm leaving in four days, and now I won't even have Ashlynn with me for those four days, the pain I'm feeling was too much to be put into words, I feel betrayed and left out, hated by my own family, I swallowed my pain and looked back at Ashlynn.
"There's no need for that Ash," I say swallowing down a lump inside my throat, it felt like the whole earth is now stuck in my throat, breathing has become much harder now, but I'm a good actor, I always have been, especially when it comes to Ash.
"You're an adult now, you'll want to bring in girls, or boys...you know, I know you want some privacy if you find your mate and all of that..." she says still on ranting, but I never brought a girl or a boy to my room, I've always decided to hold it until I find my mate, I want our first kiss to be together, our first sexual anything to be together, I want to hold it until I find my true other half until I find my one and only mate."Ashlynn...just stop, listen," I order my sister, the pain was way too much, I won't throw her out of the room she's been using since she was a child, this isn't right, my sister is only nineteen, she's not going to leave for college, she'd attend classes but still live in the house.
"What?" she says opening her mouth in an oh shape, making me smile, it's one of her cute habits."Ashlynn, I'm going off for training," I say deciding to tell her I'll be gone soon."What training! Why! I'll talk mom into allowing you to stay," she says, in other words, she'd annoy mom until she allows me to stay, but I don't want to stay now."I don't want to stay, Ashlynn, I need to go for a bit, I need the training," I say holding Ashlynn, tears started to fill her tears, she's on the verge of tears too, but Jacob won't do me any good here.
"But you my kitty," Ashlynn says tears going down her face freely now, Kitty, the name she gave me when she was just a toddler, I came to this family, small, fragile, and broken kid, toddler Ashlynn decided I look like a kitty with my blond hair and green eyes, the name stuck."I know Ash, I'll always be your brother, but I need to do this, I need to go for a while," I say holding her tighter, but the tears didn't stop, she was full-on sobbing now.
"When you leaving?" she asks between sobs."Tonight, after my birthday," I answer her, mom said birthday, we're both her children, mine is just as good as Jacob's."No go..." she cries, while I held into her, I need to make her stop crying, I can't take my baby sister's tears.
"Hey, Ash, maybe I'll find over that pack," I say, I was hopeful, I was hoping to find my mate soon, I'm not as strong as Keiran or mom is, I don't want to stay alone for long."Another kitty? Would it be a he or a she?" she asks forgetting her tears, now focusing on the possibility of me getting a mate."I don't know Ash, I don't mind either," I say it was the truth, I didn't mind either, I swing both ways."Last birthday for my kitty, gotta be realllyyyyyyyy good!" she says making me smile, she's the sweetest."Okay honey, come on, I promised Kiara some chocolate cake," I say holding Ashlynn's hand and going down for dinner and cake, we both made it to the dining table, Kiara was sitting on Jacob's lap, he must has talked her into sitting and stop crying.
"Happy birthday Jordan, to my son, you've always made me proud," Mom says holding her glass up, the rest raised their glass too, only mom and Keiran drink alcohol, the rest of us prefer coke or just water, Kiara likes juice."To Jordy," Keiran and Jacob say at the same time, while Ashlynn and Kiara went with "To kitten," as a nickname for me."Thank you, everyone," I say sitting at the table, starting to eat my dinner, small chat was shared between all of us, I haven't mentioned that I plan on leaving tonight, I'm waiting until after we have our dinner.
"Any new plans?" Jacob asks me, what plans? For the four days, I'm supposed to be staying here, no need to be a jerk brother, I think to myself."Well, I'll be leaving tonight," I say looking at my brother, but his eyes went wide, he didn't know?
"Go where Jordan?" he asks me confused."The blackthorn pack, mom says I will be training with them," I say with a big fake smile, trying to show my sisters it's going to be okay."But they aren't expecting you for another day or two," Mom says, her voice losing its alpha edge, she sounds like a mother who doesn't want to send her son away, it's not like I'm leaving forever, it's just training, I'll be back by the next season.
"I'm sure they won't mind having me early," I say with another big fake smile, I need to leave."That's fine Jordan, I'll message their alpha right now," Keiran says looking at me, we shared a look, he knew something was up with me, that maybe missing my mate is hurting me, he knows the feeling, he's been an adult for years now and still searching for his mate."Thank you Kei, now where's my cake!" I say ignoring the rest of my dinner, Kiara and Ashlynn clapped happily about the idea of getting some cake, they all sang for me, as I cut down the cake, handing the girls cake first.
After dinner, cake, and some gifts exchanged, I went up to my room to get packed, Ashlynn won't have to move out, I'm the one who'd be leaving now, I got some exercise clothes packed, some better-looking clothes, and finally a few hoodies since it's freezing cold outside, all my toiletries, I got dressed and was ready to leave."I'm ready," I say going downstairs, ready to get in my car and leave, but first I had to hug everyone, I didn't want to leave, but I need to leave now.
"Drive safe, it's a good whole night drive," Mom says, hugging me tighter than anyone else."Their alpha would message me directly, please don't get in trouble," Keiran warns me making me giggle, I'll try, no promises.Jordan POV. Driving is a skill I was taught by mom, she started to give me lessons back when I was fifteen, she said it's better to learn early, I agreed with her, I wanted to learn how to drive, I was really interested in learning new skills, I loved spending time with my mom. Back then, I wasn't as pissed as I'm full time, I was a happy person, I loved my mom, my sister, my brothers, my pack, but when did things start to change. A year ago, I was starting to change a year ago, but why would I start changing, I was almost an adult, I shouldn't have turned this way, I should have started to take my place in the pack, just like Keiran and Jacob were doing, but I couldn't, I was changing, toward the worse, I scared myself. After school, I went to university with Jacob, it was fun to get to college, I had the chance to meet new people, humans, other wolves, some of our pack, some of the other packs, it was a good friendly meeting overall, I graduated earlier this year, a big party was
Jordan POV. I yawned again, staying up the whole night watching movies with Ashlynn was something different than driving the whole night, the movies were fun, this is just annoying, the snow made the roads more dangerous, harder to drive. But I managed to drive through, I drove through most of the night, especially with my wolf small detour to have a late-night run, but I'm almost there. "Mom," I answer the phone annoyed, I'm tired, and annoyed, pissed truly, my wolf wasn't giving me any rest, I'm going to stop and get a coffee and some breakfast. "Where are you Jordan, you were supposed to be there two hours ago," she says over the phone, she was just worried about me, but that only made me angry. "I'm here now mother, I'm getting some food," I say skipping the coffee part, she'd lose it on my ass about me having coffee before food, but I'm twenty-one years old now, I'm an adult. "Jordy, the alpha isn't always the nicest person, to be honest, he's a bitch, but it's good training
Micah POV. Trust is something that's not given but earned, a baby would always trust his mother, he trusts her to feed him, keep him warm, take care of him. Trust is blind, every kid would follow his mother to hell knowing she'd keep him safe, but then we as grow up, the trust shifts, we meet friends, one we trust with our deepest secret, one we share things with. Then we become teenagers, we trust our lovers, the ones who we fell in love with to honor our love, our relationship, to be there for us as we are there for them. But then comes the biggest trust of them all, we trust our families, we trust our mommy, daddy, we trust the people who should have worked hard to get us the childhood we deserved, to get us to live happily, but what happens when that trust is broken, what about the small child who got burned in hell, about the friend who told everyone your secret or the lover who betrayed you. Let me tell you my story, when I was born, my mother didn't want to take care of me,
Micah POV. My name is the boy with trust issues, I mean Micah, Micah Blackthorn, I'm the alpha's only son, I'm his heir and the one in charge after him, I'm twenty-one years old, my birthday was last week, I just turned of age, the one where you're an adult, where more responsibilities get thrown your way and you're left to figure it out. I've been taking my father's place little by little, after the physical exercises and practice I have to endure, I now have to take on even more responsibilities, not ones that I enjoy, those are a pain in my bruised bum, today isn't any better, today is one of the worse days yet, today is another I have to spend with my father. I woke up with a groan, my whole body was aching, and in pain, I didn't want to wake up this early, I hardly slept last night, but now it's time to wake up, better get up on my own than to be woken up by my father or one of his minions, I got up and moved to the bathroom. I turned my shower on, not bothering to wait for th
Micah POV. The run was long, I had to keep pushing myself, Joshua wasn't taking it easy on me, he was taunting me with his moves, showing off how strong he is compared to me, we both spend most of our life training, but him trying to show off never gets old, he'll always try to over-speed me, to win the fight, although he knows it never ends well for me. After the run we all went back to the house, I needed a second shower, only this time, I waited for the water to get hot, I couldn't take any more coldness, the world was cold enough, I couldn't take any more coldness, it's over, I can't take any more of that, the hot water fell over my body. My burned shoulders hurt a lot, I gritted my teeth in pain, the hot water hurt, but it did well warming my soul, I didn't want to leave the hot water, I was enjoying the water way too much, but then there was a knock on my door, interrupting my only happiness, I turned the water off and sighed, it's time to come out. "Yes?" I answer whoever i
Micah POV. The alpha, of the boy, as dad put it, is really nice guy, he's not that old either, he's taking over his pack responsibilities just like me, for once I did not mind having to endure a long meeting. "Alpha Keiran, we'd be happy to host your brother over," I say with a smile, if dad wasn't here, I'd be happy to host many other wolves, I'd be happy to open our doors and let people in, let other wolves get involved with ours to change from our dull life to a more interstate one. Why push everyone out when you can have a full-on community, if I'm alpha, I would allow humans in too, they did us no harm, but maybe it's better that dad kept them out, they are liabilities, innocents who'd be hurt by the cruelty of father and our pack. "I'm glad to hear that alpha Micah," Keiran answers me, I flinched, I looked up, is this a test? He can't call me alpha, I'm the alpha's son, the supposed to be the next alpha, but I don't hold the title, father would whip me for hearing someone usi
Micah POV. Hide, stay quiet, keep down, my wolf is blond, he's sensitive to the winter sun just as much as my human form is, we went to our secret hiding place, staying away from all the other wolves, the one ordered to hurt us. 'Why they're doing that! Let me fight!' my wolf begs me, but I didn't want to fight them or get away, he's ready to go rogue to escape the pain we're going through every day and night, my wolf and the human form are both struggling with the miserable life we call ours, we want to get away, but we can't trust anyone, not my father either, he'd hunt us down and kill us. 'Stay down,' I order my wolf, ordering him to stay down to keep quiet while letting this day pass, it's better to be alone, it's better to be banned that going back and getting hurt again, although wolves can heal themselves, with how often I get injured, my body is filled with bruises, ones don't get enough time to heal before two others show instead. I closed my eyes and went to sleep, enjoy
Micah POV. The training was terrible, father joined us, he kept going for my neck, wanting to kill me maybe or just show his dominance over me, over and over again, it was getting old, but I couldn't submit to him every time, I couldn't let him win all the time, sometimes I want to win too. I was exhausted, but he wasn't going easy on us, he kept pushing us, I wanted to give in and fall on my back calling all of this off. "Push it you lazy arses," He yells, push it? I could hardly move anymore, but I had to move it, I kept moving until the day ended until I was too exhausted to stay up, finally allowed to leave back inside, we all had our dinner, the food we were allowed to eat around here, meet we hunt, our hard work, although burgers are always yummier. After dinner, a quick meal was shared between us, the betas, my mother, and Joshua, the rest of us just wanted to eat and run away, to go and hide in our rooms, while Joshua was enjoying the meal, talking with the others, talking
Micah POV. Our visit was over, sadly I don't want to go, I don't want to leave, I want to stay over this pack, over with my new sisters, and family, maybe cause some more chaos. Ashlynn wasn't in the mood for chaos, she was really sad, Jordy explained how Ashlynn is his little sister and he'd helped raise her since day one. I shared his lap and hugs with her until she felt better, once she was feeling better, we both got to Jordan's old pictures, their childhood albums. Ashlynn and Jordan were together in ninety per cent of the pictures, she's really special to him, I felt the need to get her blessing, before stealing her brother, but she didn't mind, she said I can have kitty, as long as I'm taking good care of him and giving him catnips. "Deal!" I shake hands with Ashlynn, Jordan who heard us talking, slapped my bum and hers, but the slap didn't hurt at all, I fell on the ground laughing, it's fun. "You two are troubles," Jordy scolds us but he was laughing too, I could hear it
Jordan POV. "Louis called, Kiara is crying, Ashlynn asked to stay in prison, and his best guess is that Micah is too stunned to even talk," Keiran tells us both, he's angry, I could tell how pissed my brother is right now. "Keiran," Jacob starts, he's the bravest one here. "Don't Keiran me! I don't care how you two deal with your mates, but Ashlynn is where I draw the line, you should be taking care of her! Keep an eye on our sister! Not getting all three of them to sneak away!" he yells at us both, I knew this would happen, I only nodded my head yes, I might have become a mate, a beta, I might have survived Alpha Blade, but I'm too scared of my brother. "We're sorry Kei, we'll go get them," I say pulling Jacob away, he's not good with being scolded when it comes to his mate, but he'll have to suck it up, he's the one who left the keys on the table. "I'm coming with you," Keiran says, we all moved toward our cars, we're taking two cars, we're going to need private once we get the
Micah POV. "Kiara, promise to stay here?" Jacob asks his little mate, my eyes were travelling after Jordan, keeping an eye on him, I saw him sit over the bar, talking to the other guy, I wasn't paying attention to my companions until Kiara started to pull on my sleeve. "Yeah? Kiki?" I answer her, Kiki is the nickname they use sometimes, I like it, it matches her, she's cute and small, and I like her, she's so adorable. "Daddy went to the bathroom, want to go explore?" she asks, how long would Jacob take in the bathroom, I just nod my head yes, I don't mind exploring around a little. "The club is always like this?" I ask Ashlynn and Kiara. "Nu, we dance here with mom all the time," Kiara says, I looked at her confused. "She means all of us, we have private dancing sessions around here, but the club also hold dominant and submissives night, pet play night, you know, anything you could imagine, but the little nights are extra special," Ashlynn explains, I nod my head, that makes se
Jordan POV. Micah was starting to calm down, being in the club isn't that bad at all, the club is really fun actually, I got him to sit down with me and got him some juice along with some colouring pictures, he chose the one of a train, Ash who's not feeling little or at least that's what she's saying is colouring a wolf and finally Kiara, the official little in the family is colouring a gree fish this time, at least a green fish isn't that weird. "Can I have more juice?" Micah whispered to me, I nodded my head and went to the bar to get him another one, David our bartender, the one we pay to keep Kiara's pictures up, and to keep an eye on Ash when's leaning to be more little than big. "Hey, David," I say taking a seat on the stool, while he got me more juice. "Hey, man, long time no see," he says with a smile, David is also part of our pack, and an old friend, not super close, but we're all friends in the pack. "Yeah, I moved to my mate's pack," I answer him honestly, he had an
Micah POV. "Uhh, can't we just keep on watching movies?" I beg him, sitting down and watching movies with the rest was fun, we just took a small break to eat lunch, we had macaroni and cheese, it's really good. But now that's evening is coming, we're going to go to the club, to the little night, and I'm worried, I'm not a good little, what if I mess things up or embarrass Jordan. "Baby, you were doing so well this morning, why don't you want to go?" he asks me, yeah why don't I want to go? I got a million reasons why not. "Jordy, I'm bad with these things, I'll embarrass you, why don't you just go with your siblings? I'll sleep early," I promise him. "You're not bad with things, we're going to have fun and enjoy, but if you don't feel like it, then we can stay both of us," Jordan promises me, I didn't want to ruin his night, he wants to go out with his siblings. "No, I'll go," I say with a pout, I'm going but I'm not happy about it. "If you don't want to, we can stay in," he sa
Jordan POV. "Are you done interrogating my mate?" I asked my family, are they done interrogating me and my mate, I had my turn with questions, about how I claimed him, and how the training went. "Sooo, Micah, you're telling you got enforcers who train shirtless?" Ashlynn asks, I just roll my eyes at her, I knew where this is going. "Yeah, pretty much, we had to run assault courses, do push-ups," Micah answers my sister honestly. "Ohh! When can I come to visit! Can you take a video for me!" Ashlynn says, of course, she wants to come to visit now. "Ash," I say shaking my head while Micah goes red hearing this. "Uhh...whenever you want, we'd be happy to have you over," Micah answers her. "We'd love to have you over sister, we'd celebrate your visit and skip the training for the day," I say making my sister whine, she wants to come over for the said training. "What! Nuuu! Don't stop anything for me!" Ashlynn says on the verge of tears, I couldn't help my laugh now. "Hard luck lit
Jordan POV. I went to have a chat with my sister, and maybe beat her ass for scaring my mate, sister or not, I haven't been home for twenty-four hours and she's starting fights. I left Micah and moved toward Ashlynn's room, well our room together, I went in to see her sitting on her bed, crying. "Ashlynn," I say sitting on the bed next to her, she wasn't looking at me, but I couldn't see her crying, I pulled her over to my lap, letting her cry it out. "You love him more than me?" Ashlynn asks or maybe she's just accusing me. "He's my mate, of course, I love him, but I love you too baby girl," I assure her, she's my baby girl, my sweet baby. "Then why didn't you tell me? Why didn't he tell me? What if he hurts you?" Ashlynn says, she's worried I'd be hurt. "Ash, he won't hurt me, he's my mate," I assure her again, but she shakes her head no. "He's the alpha, he's into some weird shit, what if he makes you his slave?" Ashlynn asks, and now I couldn't not laugh, she's cute, and sw
Micah POV. My mate has just left m alone, alone with his sisters, the ones I knew he loves so much, and now I'm stuck in a room with them alone, Jordan didn't leave me with them, he left me alone, promising to come back in right away, but then the sisters came in before he did. "So you are him?" the girl with brown hair asks me, I nod my head yes, I'm 'him'. "What's your name?" the other girl, the one with lavender hair asks, the little one, Kiara. "I'm Micah," I know they know about me and who I really am. "We know your name, it's not what we need to ask Kiki," Ashlynn scolds the little girl, making me smile, they really are worried about my mate and their brother. "What do you need to ask me?" I ask them, I'm more confident now, and although I'm worried, I still want to show them that I'm a strong and capable wolf, able to take care of my mate. "What do you do?" Ashlynn asks me."Uhh, I'm the alpha," I say blushing, I'm not really used to calling myself alpha. "Alpha, hmm, w
Jordan POV. I kissed my mate, and kissed him again and again, until he woke up, whining not wanting to wake up, but everything was set, and ready for us to leave. Micah whined again but started to rub his eyes, ready to wake up, yawning, sitting up in our bed and looking at me with lazy eyes. "Morning," he mumbles in his sweet voice. "Good morning baby, you ready?" I ask him, he just nods his head yes. Micah loves sleeping, and sleeping in, well sleeping in until the sun actually rises, he then wakes up ready to take over the world, but he already took over my whole world. "Do we need to?" he asks me, I'm not leaving my mate behind. "Yes, I've packed while you were asleep," I say, I also bought him some things, well ordered them online and sent them to my mother's house, she knows I'm coming once she sees all the packages delivered. "I don't want to go," he whines, I pick him off the bed and off toward the bathroom, helping him wash up for the day, and get ready. I got ready ne
