‘Wait…what? My brother and I are…what?’
Bethany was so into her thought that she didn’t even realize they had arrived back at the scene.
"Where’s everyone?" Randolph asked Ramona.
"Home. School's over." She said and revealed their bags in her hands.
"Hey, Beth! Where-" Sebastian was cut off when Bethany pulled him aside.
"Woah! Why the rush?" Bethany shot him a glare and sighed.
"Sebastian, did you perhaps, you know, heard someone talking inside your head before?" She said softly, not wanting the Stoner twins to hear them.
He looked at her with wide eyes.
"H-how did you know?" He asked, confused. "You can read minds?" He said, slapping his forehead.
Pfft, as if that can help him block out mind readers.
Bethany groaned. "No, I can't read minds. I know because someone spoke to me too."
He nodded, moving his hand slowly.
"She said that she’s my…wolf.. and her name is Charlotte."
"No way, Charles said that to me too!" He said.
"Charles?" She asked confused.
"My wolf." He said. Bethany nodded.
“So are we..”
“I don’t know…do you think Harry knows?" Bethany asked.
"Of course he knows! He's Harry! A wizard is his namesake!" He said and rolled his eyes as if it was the most obvious thing in the world.
Bethany smacked him upside the head.
“This is serious!”
“Okay! Okay! Sheesh.” Sebastian rolled his eyes. “I meant what I said. He’s Harry, THE Harry that didn’t feel surprised when Cherlin appeared out of nowhere.”
“Then does that mean Josh…”
“Maybe? I don’t know.”
“No matter what, I’m gonna smack them when I see them again.”
After that, they walked back to the Stoner twins.
“Did you know?” Bethany asked Randolph.
He exchange looks with Ramona then back at her. He nodded.
Then he frowns, “Wait..you didn’t know?”
“No, we just found out when our..wolves..spoke to us,” Sebastian said.
"So... tell us something more about werewolves," Bethany asked.
"Well, a werewolf has the power to shapeshift from men to a wolf," Randolph said.
"Yeah, no s**t Sherlock," Ramona said and earned a glare from her twin.
"We could also shift partly."
"Partly? How so?" Bethany asked.
"You know, lengthen canines, claw, and stuff."
"So like the Teen Wolf?" Sebastian countered with bright eyes.
"Kinda? Just less hair and more nice to look at." Randolph said.
Ramona slapped her twin's bicep.
"Don't judge! I love that show." Ramona glared at her twin.
"Hey! I didn't say I hate that show, I like it too! It's just the way they express it is weird." Randolph defended while rubbing the sore spot.
"Moving on, every werewolf has a scent. The-" Randolph was cut off when Bethany raised her hand.
She saw the corner of Randolph's lips twitched up a little before turning normal again.
"Yes, Bethany?" He asked.
"I'm just curious. What do we smell like?" She asked.
"Er, you guys smell like... how do I say this? Bethany you kind of smell like a burnt marshmallow. In a good way!" Randolph said.
“Sebastian smell like fresh shaved ice and pine.”
From the corner of her eye, Bethany saw Sebastian lift his shirt and sniffed.
"Another question. If we're werewolves, how come we can't shift into one?" Bethany asked.
Both Randolph and Ramona exchanged glances before turning back to them.
"We don't know, but someone in our pack might."
They both nodded their heads.
"So....what now?" Sebastian asked.
"You guys are going back with us," Ramona said.
"Where exactly is 'back'?" He asked.
"Our pack," Randolph said.
Just then they heard a car stopped behind them. They turned and saw the window of a red Porsche 911 rolled down, revealing a guy with sunglasses.
"Alpha." He said and nodded his head to Randolph as he grinned.
"James," Randolph said and nodded his head back and smirk. He looked at Bethany and smiled.
"Shall we?" He said with a smirk.
"Sure," Bethany said and they climbed into the car, followed by Sebastian and Ramona.
"James, inform the pack that their Luna and her brother will be back so clean themselves up," Randolph said.
James laughed. "Sure thing Alpha," James said. "All done." He said after a while and the car started moving.
"What did you just called me?" Bethany asked.
"Luna means the mate of an Alpha. They will be the leaders of the pack until they die." He explains and Bethany immediately regrets getting into the car.
"On the second thought! Take us back home first." She said.
"Why?" Randolph asked, kinda sad.
"We wanna get some stuff," Sebastian said.
"Sure, why not ?" Ramona said and Bethany told James to drive them to our house and gave him their address.
After a while, they arrived at the house. Bethany and Sebastian manage to convince the stoner twins to stay in the car before they got off.
They quickly ran into the house and started to pack their stuff.
‘What’s going on?’ Snow asked, walking into the living room.
“News flash, we’re moving,” Bethany said.
‘What?!’ Red popped up from behind the couch.
“Yeah, apparently our targets turned out to be our mates.”
‘Wha..’ Snow mumbled.
They rushed around the room, scooping all their stuff and stuff them into their bags.
“We’ll explain later, come on,” Bethany said and gently scooped Snow up.
‘Do we still get to eat your food?’ Red asked from Sebastian’s hand.
Bethany laughed. “’ Course!”
The heard a beep from outside and a muffled, ‘Hurry up.’
"Okay, I want you guys to jump into our bags and don't make a sound until I open the bag. Got it?" Bethany said and they nodded. They open their back and let them jump in. They left a little opening to let air in and out.
Once secure they nodded walked out the door. They got into the car and were bombed by questions.
"What took you guys so long?" Randolph asked.
"Oh, one of our stuff got lost and we tried finding it," Sebastian said.
“So did you find it?”
Before they could reply, there was a muffled sneeze from Bethany’s bag.
“What’s that?” Ramona asked.
Bethany sighed and opened the bag. Snow popped her head out.
‘Sorry, I’m allergic to books.’
“Guess the cat’s out of the bag,” Sebastian said.
Bethany snorted. “More like foxes.”
Sebastian opened his bag and Red popped his head out.
"Awwwww, where did you find them?" Ramona asked, picking Red up to her face.
"We found them inside our kitchen, stealing my cereal," Sebastian said.
"Really?" Randolph said and picked up Snow. But Red didn't like it and growled at Randolph. Red is a protective kind of brother.
Randolph looked stunned for a while then he growled back and it was Red turned to be stunned.
'Oh, he did not just growl back! Let me at him!' Red growled and started trashing in Ramona's hold.
"Red. If you don't stop trashing now, I swear I'm not making another pancake. Ever." Bethany threatened. With that, Red stood very still.
Snow and Sebastian turn to Bethany, their eyes widen at her. Then she looked at Red who also had his eyes wide open.
'I'm sorry!' Red apologize immediately.
"Good," Bethany said and smiled.
"Well. I think we should proceed with our journey." Randolph said with an amused grin and the car start moving again.
Bethany heard Ramona laughing at her mate for being so cute when she threatens not to make pancakes anymore.
"What! You said that because you haven't tried her pancakes yet!" Sebastian said and the foxes nodded their head.
"Come on. It couldn’t be that good." Randolph said.
"What do you know? You didn't even try it yet!" Sebastian argued back.
"We know because we don't like pancakes," Ramona said.
The rest gasped, scandalized.
"What?" Randolph asked.
"How can you not like pancakes?" Bethany asked.
"I don't know? We just don't." He replied.
"What about flapjacks?"
"Nu-uh."
"Hotcakes?"
"Nope."
"What about chocolate chip pancakes?"
"Bethany, isn't chocolate pancakes is the same as normal pancakes?"
“Ain’t all of them the same?” Ramona asked.
Bethany and Sebastian gasped.
"How could you say that? Of course, chocolate chip pancakes and normal pancakes are not the same. All of them aren’t the same." Bethany said, offended.
"Oh really?" Randolph said, folding his arms.
"Yes!" Bethany and Sebastian exclaimed.
"How?" Ramona said, folding her arms too.
"Well, chocolate chip pancakes have chocolate chips in them while normal pancakes are normal," Bethany said.
"Yeah, still hate them," Randolph said, shaking his head.
"You know what! I'll just make some for you two when we reached the packhouse." Bethany said.
"Fine." The Stoner twins said.
"Fine." Bethany and Sebastian said.
After a while, they reached the packhouse and damn! How many werewolves are there in a pack?!?
"How many pack members do you have?" Bethany asked, shocked.
"Around 90 to 100 or maybe more," Randolph said.
When we walked in, a little boy who looked like only 5 years old quickly ran towards Randolph and Ramona.
"Big bro and sissy!" The little boy shouted and crashed into Randolph and Ramona’s leg.
"Rowan!" They cheered. Randolph bent down and picked him up. “Hey, bud. How’s school?” he spun him around before placing him back on the ground.
'How does he get a hug and we don't?' Charlotte said.
'Oh hush, we'll get one sooner or later.' Bethany said.
‘SO YOU ADMIT YOU WANT TO HUG HIM TOO!' Charlotte shouted and laughed.
'Shut up....' Bethany said and blocked her out.
Then, Rowan looked up and saw us, he quickly hid behind Randolph and Ramona's legs.
"Who are they?" He whispers loudly to Randolph.
He chuckled and Bethany swears, that was the hottest thing she ever heard.
‘Wait, what am I saying? Focus Bethany! You’re on a mission!’
Randolph gently pulled Rowan from behind him and reveal him to us.
"This is our little brother, Rowan. He's 5. She is your Luna, Bethany. Beside her is Ramona's mate and Bethany's twin brother, Sebastian." Randolph said and smiled. Bethany inwardly cringed at the word Luna.
Rowan's scared face was replaced with a grin.
"Yay! Randy and Rara finally found their mate!!!!" Rowan shouted and started jumping around. Then, a beautiful woman walked down the stairs.
"What's all the ruckus about?" The woman asked.
Rowan turned around and smile.
"Mama!" He shouted and ran towards the woman.
"Hello, sweety." The woman said and bend down to carry Rowan. "Oh Randolph, Ramona! You’re back!" The woman said and walked towards them. Then her eyes landed on Bethany and Sebastian.
The woman was beautiful with a youthful face and bright eyes.
"And who are they ?" The woman asked and eyes them suspiciously.
In a flash, Randolph was already beside Bethany, arm casually around her waist. Bethany looked beside her and saw Ramona linked her arm with Sebastian’s.
"Our mate." Both of them said.
"Thank god! They finally found a person who can tame them!" The woman said.
"MUM!!!" They shouted, blushing.
"Anyways." She said, ignoring her kids. "I'm their mother, Emma Stoner." She said and shook their hands.
"It's a pleasure to meet you, Mrs. Stoner," Bethany said.
"Please, do call me Emma." She said and smiled.
Bethany and Sebastian can’t help but remember their mother. But they shake it off and smiled politely.
Then their mother's eyes started to fog.
"Oh no," Randolph said.
"What ?" Bethany asked.
"She's mind-linking our pack members," Ramona said and on cue, the living room started to flood with people that were whispering.
'Is it true?'
'Luna is so gorgeous!'
Suddenly, Bethany felt someone glaring at her but she shrugged it off.
Then everybody went silent when a man walked in.
"Dad." Both Randolph and Ramona said when he stopped in front of us.
Randolph and Ramona’s father, the former Alpha, was a buff man. He’ll be handsome if it wasn’t of his intimating eyes and furrowed eyebrows as he stared down at the Lloyd twins.
"Shawn...." Emma warned.
He scanned both Bethany and Sebastian. Instead of bowing their heads when he stares at us, they held his gaze.
"Sir." They said.
All of a sudden, his face broke into a grin.
"I like them." He said and everybody was staring him liked he grew two heads. He chuckled.
"They're strong and stubborn but brave." He said then he put his hands on both of Randolph and Ramona's shoulder.
"You found yourselves one of a kind mates. Now come here." He said and hugged them, even Bethany and Sebastian. Rowan jumped down from his mother's arms and hugged Bethany’s legs, giggling. Even Emma joined the party.
"Thank you, Mr. Stoner," Bethany said.
"Oh please, call me Shawn," Shawn said and Bethany smiled.
The once silent crowd was now burst into howls and 'congratulations' but then two-person decided to crash it.
"WHAT THE HELL ?!?!?! THEY'RE STRONG AND BRAVE ??? MY ASS !!!!" A girl shouted.
"YEAH !!! I THINK YOU ONLY GOT THE STUBBORN RIGHT !!! 'CAUSE THEY ARE STUBBORN FOR NOT DENYING THEY ARE THEIR MATE !!!! WE ARE SO MUCH MORE BETTER THAN THEM." A boy shouted.
Then everybody turned to look for the two-person who said that, growling. Then their eyes landed on a boy and a girl who was fuming, glaring at Bethany and Sebastian who returned it.
"Be quiet Audrey and Audel," Emma said.
"Why should we? If you said they," Audrey pointed at Bethany and Sebastian which each earn a growl from Randolph and Ramona. "Are strong and brave, why don't we have a sparring contest?" She said and smirked like she already won.
'You are so gonna get sister!' Charlotte growled, snapping her teeth.
Bethany looked at Sebastian and it looks like he was thinking the same thing. They were going to accept the challenge when Randolph and Ramona pulled our arms.
"Don't. She may be a b***h but she's one of our best fighters." Randolph said and Ramona nodded.
"Same goes for him." She said.
Bethany and Sebastian shook their heads.
"No. If it's a fight they want, it's a fight they'll get." Bethany said.
"Come on! Don't tell me that you forget the fight at school already." Sebastian said, smiling at Ramona.
"Plus nobody steals what's ours," Sebastian said and their eyes widen at the Lloyd twins. Randolph and Ramona shrugged it off and smiled proudly at them. "Have faith in us," Bethany said with a smiled.
They turned around and smirked.
"Find! We accept your challenge!" Bethany exclaimed and the pack hollered proudly.
‘WOO!! GO LUNA!!’
‘SHOW THEM WHAT YOU GOT!!!’
"When do we start?" Sebastian asked, feeling bored.
"Now. In the arena." Audel said.
Bethany turned around and looked at Randolph with wide eyes.
"You have an arena? She asked.
"Yep." He said popping the p. Bethany shook her head and turn back facing the b***h.
"Fine. Let's go." She said and they're off.
