The Pack's Weirdo : A Mystery to Unveil

Chapter 2 - Attack-2

Slowly I forced myself into a sitting position and tried to get up. Ethan came towards me but stopped midway. I raised my head and looked at him; his eyes were not focused, which meant he was mind-linking someone. After a few minutes, he sighed. “I have to go, guys. Dad is calling me in his office” with it, he kissed Stella... {believe me, it is a sloppy one}... and looked at me “you all can continue your fun” he winked at his friends and ran towards his house.

I stood up and winced as I felt pain on my side and turned towards the kitchen. “Where do you think you are going, weirdo?” Stella screeched.

“Outside,” I told her with a blank face. They all are the same age as mine, Sam is Annie’s mate, and others have not found theirs till now. They are my bullies from childhood, but they don’t have the guts to lay their hands on anyone because of alpha Aiden, but it doesn’t mean they can avoid a few ‘accidents’ like this.

Ethan and Stella have been dating each other for three years now. Everyone in the pack was fortunate that they would surely be each other’s mates, but when they turned 18 and nothing happened, everyone got disappointed, but this did not stop them from dating each other. Truth be told, I feel sorry for Ethan’s and Stella’s mate. How can you date or sleep with someone when you are sure that there is someone special who has been waiting for you all his life? But then again, who am I to judge them?

“What is with that poker face weirdo? Don’t you know how to talk with the to-be-luna of the pack? ”.. {Well, that’s news... does it mean that Ethan has chosen her as his chosen mate?} ... generally, if a werewolf cannot find his mate until he is 25, there are high chances that he can go feral, so there comes the concept of a chosen mate. Such wolves choose some other wolf as their mate and mark them as theirs, but there are very few cases of this. Generally, a wolf chooses a mate when his fated mate is already dead because it is tough for a wolf to accept someone other than its better half. Ethan is only 20, so choosing Stella as his mate is something I think alpha Aiden will never allow but again, who am I to say anything in their matter.

“You should learn to give some respect to your future, luna. Let’s start with bowing,” she said to me... {I am not going to bow to someone who is not worthy of it} ... I tried hard to keep my mouth shut. She waited for me, but I didn’t do anything “ah, our weirdo is not in the mood to bow, no problem, babe... let me help you in it” she took a deep breath and commanded me with authority, “bow to me” I was expecting some force, but when I did not feel anything, I looked at others Sam, Annie and belle are bowing to her while baring their necks while Max is clenching his jaw clearly trying to fight her command.

After a few minutes, Stella gave up and looked at me in anger... {wait, what did I do? }.. she was about to lunge at me when I quickly took a step towards my right, and instead of me, she got max on her hold. She again turned towards me; her beautiful face was so red with anger that I was afraid soon smoke would start coming from her ears. Before she did anything else, Layla came toward us while laughing loudly.

“Come on, Stella, you can’t expect your command to dominate her. Demoting her from beta to omega cannot replace the beta’s blood that is running in her veins. Only alpha Aiden’s, luna Olivia’s, or Ethan’s command can work on her,” she said smugly and looked at me.

“Let’s go,” she said and dragged me with her. I stopped myself from wincing in front of her, but finally, I gave in and winced in pain when we exited the pack house. “What is it, addy?” she dropped my hand and looked at me in concern.

“Had a little ‘accident’ with Ethan,” I told her, and she clenched her jaw. She knew very well what kind of accidents happened to me. She turned towards the alpha’s house, but I stopped her... “Where do you think you are going?” I asked her.

“What do you think, addy?” she snapped, and I shook my head.

“You already know he is not going to listen to you. You will be just wasting your energy, and don’t forget he is our alpha.”

“To-be-alpha,” she cut me off with a growl. I chuckled at her behavior.

“Yeah, to-be-alpha, and you are supposed to be the delta female of this pack, don’t ruin your relationship with him because of me,” I told her, and she opened her mouth to say something, but I cut her off... “You already know Layla; we are grownups now; we are not his friends anymore,” I told her pointedly, and she dragged a labored breath.

When my parents were alive, Ethan, Layla, and I were best friends then; at that time, he didn’t have any problem with me being a human. Even after my parents’ death, he was good to me, not like the best friends that we used to be in the past, but at least he was not rude to me, but then with time, he changed, and his friend circle changed. He started hating me, and as Layla never left my side, he broke his friendship with her too.

“We are going to the infirmary first,” she said with finality and dragged me with her.
