Chapter 9: Family and Friends

Liam

My house is in an uproar.

After receiving a phone call from my sister stating that she would be returning home, everyone has been preparing for her "Welcome Back Home" party, which is in two days.

I am really looking forward to seeing her back home too.

My sister, Elena, received an acceptance letter from one of the universities she has always wanted to attend. The university is far from home, which caused Elena to live far away from us. Having completed her studies, she is returning home to us.

Despite Elena being three years older than me, I still feel very protective of her. After all, she is the only sister I have.

Walking into my house, which was crowded with event planners, various decorations and people who were appointed by my parents to make the “Welcome Back" party as spontaneous as possible.

Near the decorations, I noticed something moving.

What the hell?

    JoIt was going to be the end of school in an hour. I was trying to persuade Ann to come with me to get Ethan and Marcel together."Do we have to do this?" Ann protested.“Yes,” I replied.Ann let out a groan."We've got to leave now!" I said."I'm exhausted! Coach made us run twenty rounds! How the heck are you not tired?" Ann cried."In contrast to you, I possess greater stamina. Now, Let's go." I said impatiently."Is it possible to do this tomorrow, or better yet, let the Goddess Aphrodite handle it?" She asked.I dragged a groaning Ann away with a "No!" on my lips.Ethan was walking in the same direction as Marcel as he emerged from the said class with his books in hand.The timing is perfect!While hiding behind a nearby wall, I pulled Ann with me, who was now quite intrigued.Marcel stepped into view as Ethan approached.

    JoIn about thirty minutes, we reached the Red Dawn pack.Elena's welcome back party is today in Liam's backyard. While I wore a blue sundress, Ann wore a white sundress with yellow flowers.Today, we want to steer clear of Aiden and Liam as much as possible.While the party started a few seconds ago, Ann and I sat in the corner, oblivious to the world, bored out of our minds.In the corner, Ann and I remained surrounded by strangers as our parents mingled with the crowd.Great! That’s just the way I wanted my Sunday to be, sitting awkwardly in the corner of a party full of people I've never even met!Huffing, I rest my face on my hands.“I am so bored!” Ann complained.I sighed. "I feel you, Ann.""Let's check out the food, then we won't have to sit here awkwardly," I suggested to Ann.“Yeah, why not?” Ann shrugs.We walked around after looking at the food and a few other decorations.I have got to give it to the Andersons. It's a very well-organised party.We are drinking the delic

    JoI glanced in my mirror one last time. With my hair tied in a ponytail, I wore a black pantsuit with the first two buttons undone. Before leaving my room, I straightened my suit and fixed my collar.It has been one month since Elena and Luke discovered they were mates. Their relationship has gone smoothly since then. Right now, they are taking things slow with their relationship.Luke is now the Alpha of the pack with Elena as his Luna.Daniel has assumed the position of Beta, while Jacob occupies the position of Gamma.I have no doubt that they will be great leaders.As for me, I'm celebrating my eighteenth birthday with my parents right now in Paris. Sadly, Elena and Luke were unable to join us.The fact that I am eighteen means I am old enough to find my mate.I am overwhelmed with excitement.Thousands of questions swarmed my head.Is my mate going to accept me? Is he going to like me? Is he someone I know? What if he rejects me?!Many questions will remain unanswered until

    JoAn overwhelming sense of nervousness swept over me. I felt very self-conscious.After the limo pulled up in front of our building, my father turned to me and asked, "Are you ready?""Yes, just a little nervous," I answered."Don't worry, it'll be okay," my father told me while holding my hand.Just looking into his eyes brought me all the comfort I needed."Anyone who has a problem with you will have to deal with it since you're going to own this," he said, pointing at the building. “ Stand tall and stand proud. Never bend your head. Always hold it high. Look the world straight in the eye and show everyone who you are.” he continued, his words full of wisdom and sincerity.That was all I needed to hear.I nodded my head affirmatively.“I know you'll make me proud," Father said with pride.My heart soared with happiness upon hearing those words.As soon as we stepped out of the car, a thousand lights flashed in our faces.To protect my eyes from the harsh flashes of their cameras, I

    JoI bid a final goodbye to the City of Love as I looked out of the plane window.Despite how beautiful Paris is, nothing compares to the feeling of being at home.Home sweet home.I quickly unpack my bags and decide to take a bath.Stripping off my clothes, I throw them in the laundry basket.To make sure the water temperature is suitable for a bath, I dip my toe into the steaming tub to test the temperature. Once I am satisfied with the temperature, I fully immerse myself in the tub.I'm coated in bubbles as soon as I get into the water. I lean back in the tub and soak my body in the heated water. My aching muscles are eased, and my body is cleansed by the warmth.In all honesty, I am a huge fan of bubble baths. Playing with bubbles makes me feel like a child again.I rinse myself and drain the water as soon as the water turns cold.Drying myself, I glanced at the clock on my bedroom wall, which read six.The party starts at seven, one more hour to go.Our school occasionally hosts

    AidenI was almost through with my essay on my laptop when I saw the time.It’s almost time for the party.Sighing, I turn off my laptop and remove my screen protector glass, which I set aside.I run my hands through my hair and get out of my chair, heading to the bathroom for a quick shower.Within ten minutes, I'm out the door and into my closet.Because it was chilly outside, I ended up choosing a turtle-neck shirt. It was black, as were my slacks. I was wearing my wristwatch and a delicate silver chain. I also wore sterling silver rings on every one of my fingers, each with its own unique and different style.I put on my shoes and ruffled my hair a little.A ding sounds on my phone, and a notification flashes on the screen. I pull out my phone and find a message from Liam."I'm nearly there; come out to the gate." It read.“Alright,” I text back and head downstairs.Alfred, our family butler, welcomes me with a bow. I replied to him with a nod."Young man, where are you going all

    JoI clenched my teeth and fumbled my hands about my room for my alarm clock, which had interrupted my fantastic dream.It wasn't until my hands discovered air that I fell face-first on the floor, dragging my blanket with me, which instantly dropped down on my face.While muttering profanities, I lifted the blanket away from my face and grabbed my phone to turn off my alarm, which was still obnoxiously ringing around the room. I checked the time and date on the phone's lock screen after turning off the alarm.Monday.Bloody Monday.What a terrific way to start a Monday morning!Before pushing myself up, I groaned aloud. I walk to my bathroom, go about my regular routine and come out of the bathroom, only to be greeted by a room filled with a dozen nicely labelled cardboard boxes, all ready to be moved out.My parents just finished moving into their new villa. As a result, it's now my turn to go.I am going to miss this room.Before I change for school, I do a brief workout session.I

    JoAs usual, the classes were exhausting.As I walked out of my last lesson, I realised I had finished the book I had borrowed from the library. I should return it.Time for a new book.The library was in the opposite wing of the school, so it was a long walk from my class.I prefer to think of myself as a bookworm.I love to read.Fortunately, our school library is centuries old, which means that it has a wide range of literature dating back thousands of years. Even the most recent novels have been added to our collection.I arrived at the library after a decent fifteen-minute and forty-six-second stroll.I open the huge library door and enter the library.As predicted, the library was quiet as a mouse. I smiled as I greeted the librarian, and she returned my smile.The library had huge, arched antique windows. It provided the library with a stunning appearance while also illuminating the whole space. There were plants and trees virtually on every corner, giving it a wonderful and di

    JoThe weekend is coming to a close, and instead of getting ready for my first day of work tomorrow, I am lounging here watching TV with a popcorn bowl in hand.‘Procrastination is the thief of time,’ they say.Even though I am entirely aware of that expression, I just studied all night, so I deserve a break.As I flipped through the channels on the TV, I felt the couch dip on my side, and suddenly the remote got snatched from my hand.“Hey!” I complained, but Luke ignored me.Though being back home was fantastic, sibling quarrels were just unavoidable.“I was watching something! Give it back!” I argued.Luke just coolly shrugged and started flipping through the channels. I wasn’t about to go down so readily, so I retaliated and went to grab the remote.And that’s how my brother-dearest and I ended up in a fight over the remote. I was as relentless as Luke was obstinate. The struggle was a fruitful one; it reminded me of my childhood.Eventually, Elena came to my rescue and scolded L

    AidenBefore the onslaught had started, I had already prepared to dodge it.It's now my chance. I smirked.I charged at him repeatedly with the speed of light, but he kept avoiding my attacks. Finally, with all my strength, I performed a twist strike that split his stick in half.“This is the third stick you have broken in the past hour, Aiden,” Liam stated, huffing as he threw the broken pieces away.“Want to talk it out?” he asked.I picked up another stick from the rack and rotated it in my hands before gripping it tightly, “Sure.”I pounced at him after I responded. He backflipped, somersaulted, and grabbed a fallen stick off the ground to avoid the blow."Sure, you want it this way. "Let's go," Liam said as he lunged at me.As we fought, our sticks collided.Unfortunately, I spent the night at Jo's with Adrik. Every time he smiled at her, I was on the verge of smashing his face. Thinking about him exacerbated my wrath."He dared to tell me he was keeping Jo 'company,'" I snarled a

    AidenIn the midst of Liam and Ann's passionate discussion, I found myself sitting on the sofa and going through my phone.I went to Liam's house to hang out, but to my astonishment, he had finally asked Ann out.He kept worrying about their ideal first date and judging them by their expressions. It was a success.Goddess, the hours I endured listening to Liam ramble on and on about cafes, flowers, picnics, and other things.Currently, the couple is chatting on the couch across from me. I glanced through my phone, uninterested in what the pair were doing.What caught my undivided attention was when Jo’s name flashed on Ann's screen.Ann excused herself and went out of sight to pick up the call. Usually, I would eavesdrop, but unfortunately, eavesdropping on Ann's phone call would result in a lecture from Liam.“So, how was your date, loverboy?” I teased.Liam rolled his eyes as he relaxed on the couch, “Perfect,”I nodded my head, “I guess congratulations are in order,”With a playfu

    JoThunder erupted from the sky as the black clouds grumbled angrily.Shivers rushed up my skin all the way to my spine. I quickly pulled into the parking spot and raced through the double glass door. I swiftly put my key card in the slot at the door for the security check."Hey, Josette, how are you doing?" Mr Larry, the receptionist, greeted me cheerfully.Mr Larry was about sixty years old. As far as I know, he has worked here for thirty years. He is a friendly, warm-hearted mortal.I made an effort to smile, but all I wanted was to be at home, safe and secure.I said with a shaky voice, "I'm good.”I clutched myself, hoping to get rid of the shivering. Though, my efforts went in vain as the feeling clung to me with a relentless grasp.“Honey, are you alright?” his eyebrows furrowed with worry, “You’re looking a little pale there.”"No, I'm great," I stiffened. “You know, it's just the weather.”

    JoThe pleasant fragrance of food that permeated the air caused me to wake up as my stomach began to growl. Due to sleepiness, my eyes were still hazy. I stood up, feeling my body tense.I turned on the lights. The unexpected brightness struck me square in the eyes. It took me a while to adjust to the light, so I had to strain my eyes to read the time. I blew my entire evening away at 10:03.I hurriedly changed out of my now-wrinkled school clothes and put them in the laundry basket.I walked out to the dining area, where I found Ann serving herself some pasta carbonara."Welcome, sleepyhead," Ann remarked.I sat at the table as a yawn escaped my mouth."Well, I arrived late from Liam's, so... last-minute pasta carbonara!" Ann grinned and pointed at the dish.“Hm, it smells so good,” I moaned and served myself some.“So, what are your weekend plans?” I asked.Ann’s face flushed. “Um… Liam and I are going on our first date,” the blush on her face reached all the way down to her neck.“

" The dark-hair boy states, "I'm a werewolf.""I suppose that's it," he chuckles. After a few seconds, he turns back to Mr Jones and gives a nod of completion as he turns to leave.Ann leans forward and whispers, “Damn, he is hot,”And I couldn't agree more. He is indeed attractive, but as the saying goes, don't judge a book by its cover.The males sitting close to the girls didn't miss that comment. Their noses wrinkle slightly in rage and envy. Their eyes were razor keen, taking in every detail of the boy approaching them.“Hm, I don’t see it,” Liam mentions, his eyes hard and cold.Ann rolled her eyes at the prominent jealousy radiating from her mate.“I mean, look at those abs!” I exclaimed in awe.Scoffing, Aiden, with his breath tickling my ears, comes in close and murmurs, "I have better, fireball."Shivers run down my body as I turn to

    JoI just have one question. What the heck happened to Annabeth?She couldn't have picked a worse moment to vanish than right now!Not only do I have to worry about resisting Aiden, but it will be impossible now that I have to tutor him. To top it all off, I need to study for my exams in order to get into a reputable institution.Great! just great.I am utterly confused. My heart, without a doubt, longs for Aiden, but my obstinate head refuses to give in and fuel his ego.I won't lie; Aiden King is the most spoiled, egotistic, and annoying brat I have ever encountered, yet why does my heart race every time we are near one other?Why does my body react to his touches? Why does being in his hands make me feel at home?They say that the mate bond grows stronger with time.Despite the fact that it's only been a short while since the party, perhaps the feelings existed long before we even realised we were mates.Or maybe I’m falling for him.Presumably, in all of this, challenges and plots

    JoI was still soaking in the water. I also damaged Ann's car seat, but she didn't seem to mind.Ann ushered me inside the penthouse as soon as we arrived."How is your ankle?" Ann inquired, her brow pinched with concern.I reassure Ann, rotating my ankle to show my point, "Yeah, the speed healing set in as soon as we sat in the car.""All right, stand still. I'm going to dry you out, "Ann proclaims.I nodded and complied.Ann closed her eyes and raised her hand towards me. Both her little and ring fingers were crooked.I could feel the water slowly evaporate. My wet clothes and body began to dry.Within a few minutes, my entire body was dry, and the heat Ann was generating began to sting.“Ouch, it hurts,” I say, wincing."I'm sorry, I'm still mastering these powers," Ann replies, pouting.“It’s okay,” I say and slump on the bed with a sigh.Ann comes and sits beside me. “Want to talk about what happened?” Ann asks.“Aiden and I fought,” I took a deep breath before continuing. “Ann,

    JoA loud ringing jolted me awake. The living room appeared to be in a state of disarray. The sofa cushions were scattered across the floor, and popcorn had spilt everywhere. The television was still on, and the movie we'd been watching the night before had been paused.Ann is curled up in her blanket at the other end of the sofa.I reached out for my phone, which was still ringing.When I looked at the time, all of my drowsiness vanished.We were late for school!"Ann! Ann! Wake up! " I shook Ann violently.She sleeps like a corpse, I swear to God."ANNABETH!" I yelled at the top of my lungs."Oh my gosh! What? " Ann hollered."Wake up! We're running late for school!" I mentioned."What?" Ann, who was still half asleep, inquired."Take a look at the time, moron!" I told her."Crap!" cried Ann."Exactly!" I exclaimed.We both used our super-speed to tidy up our mess in the living room before rushing off to school.Luckily, we arrived on time.Surprisingly Aiden was nowhere to be fo
