Dorian’s POV
After the lunch bell rang, I helped my mate get to her next class before I left to deal with my sister and put her in her place. My little vixen is a gentle, sweet, and loving young woman who had done so much already for the pack before I came home. I will not tolerate this behaviour towards my mate. Not while I am around, she does not deserve to be treated like an outsider when she is different.
“Our little sister is no sister of ours, not when she has been bullying our mate for years. What is worse, our little mate is being beaten up by pack warrior children who think just because she is a werefox, and she does not deserve to be treated like anyone else.” “Calm down, Knox. I am just pissed off about this when it comes towards our little mate.” I told Knox calmly, cutting our link short as I made it into the principles office. I stood behind my sister with my arms crossed holding back my anger from wanting to tear into these idiots.
“Aa, Beta Greyson. Glad for you to join us. We are now waiting for Ms. Myst to arrive.” I gave him a curt nod, clenching my hands on my forearms, almost drawing my blood.
We all heard a slight knock on the door, and when her scent hid my nose, I knew my little mate had entered the room. I watched her walk in carefully, and I could feel her anxiety through our mate bond and the fear they were both in when she saw all of these other young pups in the room. I carefully motioned for my mate to stand with me, as I would keep her safe from now onwards, as this was not happening on my watch. I quickly wrapped my arms around her waist, letting her hide her face in my large, covered broad chest with her hands shaking with fear.
“Shh, sweetheart, I am right here, and nothing will happen,” I whispered to her, rubbing my cheek on her head and letting my scent wash over her. I tilted her head towards my face as I bent down and kissed her forehead, telling her she was safe. I felt her trembles start to slow and her breathing calm down.
“Ms. Myst, can you please explain how Brittany got hurt earlier this morning?” I narrowed my eyes, letting the principal know I am not to be f****d with when it concerns my mate. “This morning, I arrived at school and was already in class with Beta Dorian.” I heard my mate's sweet voice mumble in my shirt. “Baby, you might need to speak out of my shirt, love,” I said softly, chuckling at her red flushed face kissing her cheeks and smiling down at her. She gave me a short smile, and I turned her around to face everyone in the room, keeping my hands on her hips as I tried to speak again.
“T-This morning, I arrived at school and avoided Brittany and her friends. I tried to go towards the back entrance to enter the school and saw the guys sitting there waiting for me to show up, so I snuck in behind them and went to class. That was when I ran into Beta Dorian this morning in class as he taught History.” “I see, so you were nowhere near Brittany and pushed her down the front entrance stairs?” “No, sir. I was inside talking with Beta Dorian about something important.” “Mr. Hans, if you try to do anything or say anything towards Ms. Myst, you will have to deal with me,” I said with an edge to my voice, tightening my hands on my mate's hips. Noelle placed her hands on my arms, letting her touch soothe my angered mind. I sighed, letting her sweet scent consume my mind, soothing my soul as Knox and I wanted blood.

I got into my car after helping my little vixen get in the passenger seat as my sister sat in the back seat, annoyed with how I treated my mate with more respect than her. “Baby, is there anything you might need from your home before we head to the packhouse?” “No, Dory. Ma texted me telling me that she has already taken care of everything.” I nodded, grabbing her tiny hand and lacing our fingers together as I kissed the back of her hand, driving home today.
“Britt, do you need me to drop you off anywhere?” “No. But, can you stop being an asshole and stop ignoring me for this bitch.” I let out a growl towards my sister, who glared at my mate, who was close to falling asleep, and me. I let her rest on the way home as I drove into the packhouse garage, parked the car and got out to carry my mate inside towards our private floor in the packhouse.
I ignored my so-called sister as she threw a fit and I did not help her out of the car, only my mate who was clinging to me in her sleep.
I walked upstairs, ignoring everyone around me, as my mate was more important than anything else other than my pack. I walked into our room, placed her down on the bed, took her shoes off, and changed her clothes into one of my long-sleeved shirts. I kissed her forehead, leaving her to rest and nap from today’s events. I left the room and headed towards the kitchen area, where I knew the guys would be waiting for me to tell them about today.
“Ah! There he is! The man of the hour, the Beta himself.” “Joey, shut the f****d up,” I said, heading towards the fridge to make some food quick for my mate. As I was making some food, my sister walked in, annoyed with her friend who had a crush on me.
“W-welcome back, Dorian,” I grunted out my reply, ignoring continuing to cook while Cole and Joey were snickering behind us at the table. “Dorian! Stop being rude!” “Dory?” I stopped cooking for a second when I heard my mate's sweet voice. I looked down at her petite frame, realizing how tiny she was to me. I gently picked her up and placed her on my hip as he clung to me and laid her head on my shoulder.
“Yes, sweetheart?” I softly said while I went back to making our food. “What is going on?” “Well, little one, your mate here is being harassed by a she-wolf and his sister.” I glared at Joey, who opened his big mouth. “Oh? That is it? I thought something was happening?” The three of us just stared at my mate, wondering what she was thinking in her little mind.
“Um, Noelle, right? Why are you not worried that another she-wolf or human woman might steal Dorian from you?” “Alpha Cole, if I may say something. I am not worried about Dory talking with anyone, as I trusted him even when we had only met today. I know he is handsome and is very well known in the pack for being the Beta, but I know that he will not do anything to harm our mating bond.” My sweet Elle said to everyone in the room. I watched Britt’s friend crying when hearing that I had found my mate and they were both glaring at my sweet Elle with such distaste that I was worried something would happen soon.
“I do not trust Brittany or her friends. We must get our mate here and away from the school and the others. She is in harm's way.” “I know, Knox.” I cut my link with Knox as we were all sitting at the table eating our food and talking about an issue from another pack nearby. “We will ask Elle if she is ready to graduate early instead of the usual time she will need to graduate as she needs to begin her beta female training with our mother.” “Dory, can you come with me this morning to talk with the principal?” “Of course, sweetheart. Why, if I may ask?” “Well, I want to graduate now rather than in the year when I already have everything to graduate with, and I also want to begin our beta training sooner than later.” I looked at my mate, who was talking with Cole’s mate about the party tonight, and it seemed to me that we did not need to worry about anything that concerned her one bit.
“Alright, I will come with you to the principles office, and then we will come back here, and can you speak with my mother and start today?” I told my mate through our pack link.
