Claire's POV"So, have the four of you had sex?" Jenn asked, shocking me"Jenn, I am not about to talk to you about that. You are my baby sister," I said "I am not a baby; I am fourteen years old and will be fifteen in a few months," Jenn said "Either way, I am not talking to you about this," "I will take that as a yes, then," Jenn said "I am not telling you anything," I said "You deserve to be happy, Claire. You have always been there for me and had my back. I want you to know that I will always have yours as well," Jenn said, causing me to tear up a little. "I love you, Jenn," I said and hugged her tightly. "I love you too," She replied, and my bedroom door opened. I looked up to see Gwen standing by the door."I am sorry for interrupting," Gwen said "You're not interrupting. I was just telling Claire that I am happy for all of you," Jenn said, smiling at Gwen."Thank you, Jenn," Gwen said "Well, I am going to go check on Stacy. I feel bad for freaking out on her like I did
Steven's POV"All of you need to calm down," Stephen said. "I am sorry, Alpha Stephen, but how do you expect us to calm down when you are making my daughter your Beta? She is not fit to be Beta and will only bring shame to the Crescent Pack. That is why I chose James to take my place once I retired," Gwen's father, Gary, said."Are you questioning Alpha Steven and my decision?"Stephen asked in his Alpha tone"No, I am just telling you the truth. My daughter wasn't born to be Beta," "If I remember correctly, you weren't born to be Beta either. Beta Michael was born to be Beta, and you took his position after he left. Should my father not have given you a chance to be Beta since you feel Gwen should be because she wasn't born to be?"Stephen asked"That is not what I am saying, Alpha. I am saying that a female is not strong enough to become the Beta of a Pack," Gary said "That is a bunch of bull shit," Jane, one of the female warriors, said. "You watch your tongue, little girl. You f
Gary's POVI can't believe Gwen would embarrass me like that. It's all because of Michael's daughter. I never liked Michael, and that is why I let that Rogue into the Packhouse to kidnap Claire when she was a baby. I just wanted to hurt Michael back then, but now I wish the Rogue would have succeeded and taken her far from here. Then I wouldn't have to worry about her being a bad influence on my daughter. There is no way I believe that the Goddess would make Claire Gwen's Mate. I know that she belongs to James. Speaking of James, that human Claire is the reason why he is in a cell and waiting to be executed in front of everyone in the Pack. I know I have to do something about this bitch before she destroys this Pack. That is why I am on my way to Rogue Territory to find the one werewolf that will help me. "Well, I never thought I would see the day you were living with the Rogues," I said"What are you doing here," "I came to help you, Monica," I said "Why would you want to help me?
Claire's POV" I am so proud of you, Gwen. I always knew you would make a great Beta," Sean said"Yeah, we kept telling you that you should be our Beta," Steven said"Thanks for the support," Gwen said. I was so proud of her for not letting her father talk her out of her decision to become Beta. We were still in the room where the meeting occurred, and most everyone had left."Of course, we will always be here for you, sweetie," Tonya said"I guess this makes Claire the Luna and Beta female," Sean said"Do we call her Beta female since they are both Clare and Gwen are females? Or do we call her the Beta's Mate?" Steven asked"You are thinking too hard about this, bro," Stephen said. I began to feel through Gwen's emotions that she suddenly felt a rush of happiness go through her. I looked over at her and saw her mind linking with someone. " I can't believe this. My father mind linked me to apologize for his actions today. He said he believes that I would make a great Beta. He also s
Claire's POV"We are for meeting Gary Smith," Gwen says to the lady at the front. "Yes, this way," The lady said and took us to the back of the restaurant where Gwen's parents were."Hello, Mom and dad," Gwen said. When Gary looked up, at first, he was smiling, but when he looked and saw Stephen and Steven were with us, it turned into a frown."I am so happy that you made it," Gwen's mom said and hugged her tightly"Me too; however, I did think it would only be you and Claire tonight," Gary said "Steven and I figured after your behavior from earlier today. We didn't want our Mate to meet with you without us. I am sure you should understand, considering how disrespectful you were not only to your daughter but also your Luna," Stephen said, and Gary looked at him for a moment before responding."You are right, Alpha Stephen. Unfortunately, I was wrong, and that is why I wanted to meet with the human and Gwen," Gary started to say but was cut off."You mean your Luna?" Stephen growled
Claire's POV"How was dinner?" Jenn asked as she took a handful of popcorn and placed it in her mouth. After dinner with Gwen's parents, I told Stephen, Steven, and Gwen that I wanted to spend the rest of the night with Jenn. Jenn and I had been spending less time together than we used to. I knew that once I moved onto the twelfth floor with all of them tomorrow, we would see each other less. That is why I wanted to spend the night having a sister night. I could tell they didn't like the idea but understood and agreed without arguing."It was okay. Her mother barely said two words the whole night," I said "That's strange. Were both her parents nice to you?" Jenn asked"Yeah, Gary apologized for everything he said to me before, and Gwen's mom seems very sweet. It was just strange that she never talked. Whenever one of us talked to or asked her a question, Gary would answer for her," I said. "Maybe she is shy," Jenn said"Maybe, all I know is that Gwen's mom's personality is the oppos
Stephen's POVWhy did Gary have to show up at training? He never worried about what Gwen did before Steven, and I made her Beta. After the dinner, we had with him last night. I knew he was up to something, and I felt it had something to do with him, expecting that Claire had a wolf. "Why would he show up here," Steven asked through mind-link"I don't know, but something is telling me he is trying to find out if Claire has a wolf," I linked back"You might be right," Steven linked back. Gary was not a stupid man. He knew that Claire had to be more than just a human to have my brother, me, and Gwen as her Mate. I am worried that others will wonder how a human can be mated to twin Alpha wolves. We hope to convince everyone that it is because Claire's father was the true Beta of our Pack.I listened to Gary talking about how he told Gwen that he wanted to check how she trains the young warriors. I knew what he was saying was a load of Bullshit. What I didn't understand was why Gwen didn'
Claire's POVI can't believe they would talk to me like that when all I was trying to do was calm everyone down. I know it was childish to walk away like that, and they didn't mean to yell at me the way they did. They were upset, arguing and upset, but that doesn't mean they should take their anger out on me. "Hey, Claire. Where are Gwen and the twins?" Tanya asked as I walked into the Packs dining room. Jenn and Stacy were sitting with Tonya and Sean, eating breakfast."They are upstairs having a conversation," I said. Tonya and Sean looked at each other with a knowing look before Tonya spoke.You should take Stacy and Jenn to school. They may be busy right now. I will finish everything for Stacy's Shifting Party tonight," Tanya said, looking at Sean. "Okay, are you coming, Claire?" Sean asked"I want to talk to her for a moment," Tonya said "Okay, Love, Bye, Claire," Sean said and kissed Tanya softly "Why don't we talk in my office," Tanya said "Okay," I replied, and we went to
