You CAN'T be My MATE! [MxM]

Who Are You?

Chapter 12 - Present - Jackson

 Kristian wasn't wrong about the young wolf Jonathan, he was an Alpha but even he didn't know it... Although sometimes his wolf side disliked how his father spoke to him like ordering the young man, he always tried to control himself and obey like a good son.

Because at the end of the day... 

Who would believe that the son from a Lone Wolf, who lived for years without a Pack, and a drugged Human, who would eventually cause the premature birth of her baby, making him blind, would eventually become an Alpha?

... Jonathan didn't think it was possible, he didn't believe it...

He didn't want to believe it...

So... He called himself an Omega. 

A weak, sick and in his case, also a visually impaired wolf as for him, in his mini family pack, his father was the only Alpha... And him? He only tried to obey him like any wolf with the Alpha of their respective pack.

My legs were resting on my desk when Vinny came into my office and sat in the chair before me, he remained in silence for a few seconds before opening his mouth.

"Until when will you lock yourself in here?"

I sighed before answering for the thousandth time the same question he always asks me when he enters my office...

"I don"t know... Maybe until I think about who gonna be the new Beta? Or until I figure out how to convince Sarah to be my Beta?"

"Are you serious, Jack!?" he said running a hand over his face. "You've been here for two days and you haven't thought about anything yet."

The way he said it seemed to be completely sarcastic to me and I didn't like it, making me growl at him for that disrespect until someone's familiar scent came into my office and helped me relax instantly.

"Maybe it's time for you to change your way of thinking." I heard my sister's voice and looking toward the door I saw her staring at me with her legs and arms folded as she leaned against the door.

"MACKENZIE!"

"Hey! Old Brother!" She greeted me laughing and it was the same as I remember from my childhood.

"When did you get home?" She laughed at my question.

"On Friday but when I looked for you at home you were already hiding your amazing self in here, so... I decided to not disturb you before the ceremony."

"That didn't even happen..." I completed what she was saying.

"I didn't even notice! My friend ended up not meeting his Mate because of that." She spoke already sitting before my desk, making me return to my seat. "Either way, you can try to change the way you think... Or you can change the responsibilities of the new Beta."

"What do you mean by that?" I quickly questioned her but the answer was only given after she looked affectionately at Vinny for a second.

"Change the responsibilities of the new Beta. You are the Alpha, you are the one who defined our functions in the Pack including the Beta's, who is your right arm. Although he has to lead the pack when the Alpha or his Mate is no present here." She replied as if it were the most obvious thing in the world. "Sarah doesn't want to become the Beta because she doesn't want the responsibilities her father currently has with the Pack, and that were passed on to him by our grandfather's Beta which was, basically help to manage the Pack in reports and documents... Other than that, she doesn't care about making rounds with you around the territory, report any fight, and helping us in training as she already does these things with you like any Beta."

The more I listened to her... More it all made sense...

"Kristian's a lawyer just like Uncle Phil and he can easily take care of this stuff as your Mate, besides all this is your responsibility. Our grandmother didn't... Didn't have a Mate to help him with it and our mother didn't know anything about all the legal stuff, so she started to help in the Pack's kitchen as she's a chef, making Uncle Phil help Dad with it."

"Oh my goodness! How I hadn't thought about it!" She looked at me with a smile on her face, satisfied with her explanation, it even looked like she had won some very important prize.

"Kenzie..." I called her by an old nickname. "I don't know if I thank you or wondered when you became so smart."

"Brother, you should seriously thank me." She told me laughing. "After all I've always been smart or why else do you think I'd be your Delta's mate?"

Vinny was still quiet as he listened to my conversation with Mackenzie, who was sitting in his lap all the time and after asking me that she gave a kiss to his lips that although quick and innocent still bothered me as her old brother...

"That is a simple question..." I began to respond. "For the simple fact that the Moon Goddess and Fate have a bad sense of humor in mating my younger sister and my best friend who is six years older than her"

"They must truly have..." Strangely, she agrees with me. "Since they also decided to mate you with your Beta."

After saying that, she left my office laughing and pulling Vinny with her to wherever she was going to but her words reminded me that later I need to talk to Kris, as just I noticed now that the last time we spoke was in the forest two days ago... 

... Even if we're in the same house...

I sighed just thinking of this as I headed for my room in the Pack's house, took a quick shower and decided to buy some ice cream in the market before my visit to Sarah's house. Kenzie could have had found the solution to my problems however, a little extra help never hurt anyone. Sarah loved ice cream so much since childhood that could be considered even an addiction.

... I reached the hall where you could find several brands for sale. The first thing I saw was that her favorite brand had released a new flavor, probably the Gods truly were in my favor. 

I laugh just thinking about it after picking the pot to put in my basket and went to the next freezer where you could found the more traditional flavors like vanilla and chocolate, Sarah's favorites.

A new flavor, vanilla, now I just needed the chocolate one and for sure I would win against her. As I reached for the last pot my hand was stopped before I could even touch it by a small, delicate hand that reached it first... 

I heard a small laugh that came from the owner of that hand that was touching mine.

"Pardon." She spoke perfectly in French to me. "You can have the glace au chocolate."

"Thank you." I thanked her as I observed her... She was tall, 1,70 m probably, fair-skinned and gray almost white eyes, strangely similar to a blind person, however, what caught my attention the most was her hair, almost the same color as Kristian's, a light brown similar to caramel. "Are you sure you don't mind if I take the last one?"

"I am." She told me as she put the pot in my hand and pushed in my direction, lightly squeezing my hand and then withdrew saying "I just hope you don't forget that you owe me an ice cream the next time we see each other... Alpha. "

I turned quickly to question who she was however, she had already disappeared from the hall... She couldn't be a Vampire because if she was... I would have known when she touched my hard. Despite the gray eyes, she hadn't sea or water scent on her, putting away the idea of her being a Mermaid... 

Her scent was very Human and I didn't want to think about the probability of her being a Hunter, they were terrible news for any pack...

...Thinking about how fast she had disappeared from here as her smell was almost imperceptible now... It could only indicate a creature of the supernatural...

... A Witch...
