Secrets and truths

Xavier's POV I ALMOST KISSED HER! And I wasn't even the one to stop it. I was even disappointed that she stopped me, until Maddox started prancing in my head growling " she is saving herself for us, she wants us to be her first everything". That made me really happy and I couldn't help the satisfaction showing on my face. I hurt her this morning. Those f*****g assholes. FLASHBACK Zane, Crystal and her band of sluts cornered me after training and Crystal keeps asking what was going on with me and Briar. I told her, it was none of her business, her eyes turn cold and she sneers at me, " the way you hang all over her is disgusting, are you trying to get in her pants? You have a real problem, Xave, is it that you can't handle a real woman or do you just like them young?". b***h. My cousin looks embarrassed and gives me an apologetic look. Maddox is livid, "let me rip the whores throat out". I struggle to keep him from taking over and killing her. I gave her an icy look, "are you jealous, Crystal? That there are girls, like Briar and her friends, that don't need to spread their legs to get people to spend time with them. I mean how many warriors have you f****d this week? Although from what I hear, they tend to stay away from your saggy p***y, and make you suck their c***s instead". She is angry now, and so is Zane, but his seems to be aimed at Crystal. I decided to use this to my advantage. "Didn't you know cuz , your girl and her friends like to f**k the ranked, Kaden and I don't f**k whores. So they spread themselves around the unmated warriors. I suppose you are the closest she can get to the Alpha family". As I storm off, I hear the slut say, "You will regret that, Xander. I shifted and ran into the forest. I am so angry. Does everyone think I am trying to take advantage of Briar? I know I have brought this on myself, always making excuses not to go out partying with my friends, I just want to be near her all the time. My thoughts always link us together, especially when I think about the future. It's always US, together, us running the pack, us making decisions. Goddess, she is going to be an amazing Luna. And then my thoughts turn to, my Luna, her in my bed, her carrying my pups. f**k, I need to stop, we can't do anything for another two and a half years. I need to put some space between us. I am leaving next week, and won't be back till Christmas, so that should shut people up. PRESENT Dad and the oracle are telling us what happened on the night Briar was born. Her eyes are as wide as twin moons, she looks between the oracle and dad. "But what does that mean? It hasn't snowed blue again. Maybe it was a trick of the light. It's not like I am special or anything!" I smile, she really has no idea how perfect she is. The oracle holds one of her hands, "little moon, how did you know about the caretaker ritual? How did you know the words to say? How did you know our packs true name? We have not been known as the Blue Snow enclave for a thousand years. I didn't even know, I had to call the spirits of past oracles to find out what you knew instinctively. You are special darling girl, you are the one prophesied to bring the magic back to us, and restore harmony to the whole supernatural world". Holy f**k, I have felt the strength that she has, but never dreamed she would have so much riding on her shoulders. She looks like she is about to crumble from the weight of the oracle's words. I shoot her a smile and a wink, trying to send her my support. She smiled back at me, but there was a look of hurt on her face. "Why would dad keep this from me? I have never heard anything about a prophecy. It hurts that he would keep this from me, was it because I am a girl, that he thought I would not be strong enough?" Her voice hitched and I nearly leaped over the coffee table to hold her looked so lost. "Alpha, thank you for telling me, I hate secrets. How are you supposed to trust people if they keep such important things from you?" I gulp, and both my dad and the oracle stare at me and raise their eyebrows. Hell, I guess I need to put my big boy pants on and tell her. She looks at us confused, "is there something else I should know?" FUCK!!!! Here goes nothing. "Kitten, there is something I need to tell you, I was going to wait till you were older, but you are right, trust can only be built on truth. I don't think I could go away without telling you anyway". I put my head in my hands, and rub my face, what if she rejects me? "It's OK son". I look up at my perfect mate, she looks scared. "Kitten, when I first saw you in the forest, Maddox and I felt a connection with you. I didn't understand it at first and thought it was just the energy of Blue Snow, and the forests need to protect you. I even thought that maybe someone had cast a spell on me, but since we came home the connection has grown, and now I am sure that it is real". I am dithering and she is looking at me like I have two heads. "I don't understand Xavier, what do you mean by connection?" This is not going as easily as I thought it would, but then I thought my mate would be of age and we would look at each other, both feel the pull of the mate bond, and spend the next week f*****g. "Briar youaremymate". I blurted it out all at once. She looked at me confused, I could see her trying to work out what my jumble of words meant, then it clicked in her head and a look of relief formed on her face, followed by the biggest smile I have ever seen. We just stare at each other, like we are scared to move. My dad clears his throat, "Briar, there is still a lot to tell you,but first I think we need fresh coffee. I would like Luna to be involved with this, as you said secrets are not good among family, and I have kept this one from Jenna for too long. I also think destiny is catching up with us and we have a lot to do, so if there are others that you trust with this, then we should bring them onboard". Briar thinks for a moment, then sighs, "I have trusted both Megan and Jedadiah my whole life, and over the last month I have come to trust both Kaden, Jacob and Matty with my life. As for Matty, Destiny and Hope,I feel that they will have our backs but maybe bring them in later if we need to." My dad nods and agrees, " the oracle and I will round everyone up and organize refreshments. I think you two need a minute to talk". He gives me a sly wink and the oracle lets out a dirty laugh. I feel my cheeks heating up and glare at both of them.
