Mated To The Alpha Twins

Chapter 1 - Just a regular day *Avery’s POV* I woke up to the usual sound of my alarm clock going off, I rolled over with my eyes still screwed shut and let out a small sigh. It would be rude if I didn’t introduce myself, my name is Avery Winters, the only daughter to the Beta of the Blood Moon pack, and the disappointment of the family due to the fact I am wolfless. When I say wolfless it’s not entirely true I do have a wolf, Rain, she appeared on my 13th birthday as she was supposed to. However on my 16th when I was supposed to have my first shift it never came, Mom and Dad say I’m just a late bloomer and it will happen eventually but that didn’t stop the relentless teasing and bullying once everyone found out. It was now only a week until my 18th birthday and I had given up all hope of ever shifting or finding my mate. Who would want a broken she-Wolf? “Avery get up we have school!” Echoed the all to familiar voice of my younger brother Kyan, followed by sudden banging on my door. “Go away I’m sick!” I lied, grumpily turning myself over to face the wall and dragging my quilt up and over my head. There was no way I was moving from this bed for the foreseeable future. I heard my door open and wrapped myself up tightly, preparing myself for what was to come. “Avery come on get out of bed or mum will kill us both” Kyan groaned, tugging at the bottom of my quilt. “No! Go away I’m sick!” I repeated, trying to hold on to the fabric for dear life but I knew it was no use. Kyan was only 16 but he was built like a brick house and he easily pulled the duvet off me. I’m lucky that I have to sleep in clothes otherwise this would of been a very embarrassing moment. “Ky just leave me alone please” I begged, turning to look at him with my puppy eyes. Kyan was tall and bulky, which he defiantly inherited from our dad, with short messy brown hair and emerald green eyes that he inherited from our mother. “Don’t make me get Dad” he snapped, irritated by my lack of co-operation. I instantly sat up, he just played the dad card so I knew he was serious. “You wouldn’t” I growled, glaring at him as he he stood there looking all smug and happy with himself. This just made me hate him even more. “Oh I would. DA-“ he started to shout before I cut him off. “Okay I’m getting up now get out!” I cried, throwing my arms up frantically. He shot me quick grin before running out. ‘He’s a ass’ growled Rain through our mind link, all of the shouting must have woken her up and she didn’t sound to pleased. ‘Tell me about it!’ I hissed back, climbing out of bed reluctantly and catching a glimpse of myself in the full body mirror on my wardrobe door. I was short and skinny, there’s been a few times we’re I’ve been mistaken for being a child which was humiliating in itself. I had hazel brown hair the same as everyone else in my family, however I was the only one who had natural blonde strips blended in. My skin was a naturally tanned, which brought out my bright blue eyes and freckles that were dotted around my nose and cheekbones. I walked over to my door and unhooked my dressing gown before throwing it on. I opened my bedroom door and shuffled out, rubbing sleep from my eyes and yawning. Still in a sleepy haze i tugged at the bathroom door handle but it wouldn’t budge. “Occupied” called out my other brother Xavier and I groaned. Xavier was the older then me by a year and was training to be the next pack Beta for when the twins take over. I grimaced at the thought of them being Alphas. Harry and Regan Black, the terrible two as I like to call them, took great pleasure in belittling and annoying me on a daily basis whenever they got the chance. It was a inconvenience that we were born on the same day and destined to share every birthday together. However it wasn’t always like this, growing up me, Xavier, Harry and Regan used to all hang out and were really close friends until I never shifted. Then I became public enemy number one, the boys began there ruthless torment and everyone in the pack either shunned me or joined in the bullying. Instead of waiting outside the bathroom door I decided to back to my room to choose a outfit for the day. I decided on a pair of blue denim jean shorts, yellow tied up top and my white sneakers. I headed back to the bathroom and to my surprise it was free, I ran in before anyone else could protest and bolted the door. I looked at the clock on the bathroom wall, it was my idea to have one to remind Xavier how unbelievably long he takes, I had half hour to shower, get dressed and eat before leaving. ‘Let’s go back to bed’ whined Rain, she had a tough front but really she was a big softy. ‘As much as I would love to, we have school’ I replied, however I joined in sulking as I undressed and threw my night clothes into the washing basket. I climbed into the shower and turned it on, a jet of cold water hit me first and my groggy eyes sprung open and I backed away from the flow to recover myself. After leaving it a few seconds to warm up I submerged myself again,the water was scolding hot but I felt no pain just comfort, I closed my eyes and titled my head upwards letting the water drizzle down. This was the last moment of peace I was going to get until tonight I intend on enjoying it. A stampede of feet crossing the corridor outside dragged me out of my serenity, I mustered the will power to wash. Flicking the shower off I climbed out, I hadn’t realised the bathroom had filled with steam, even the mirror was fogged up. I wrapped one towel around my body and used another to dry my hair as fast as I could. I rushed brushing my teeth, and threw on my clothes in record time. The mirror had cleared itself, and I watched myself in disgust as I pulled a brush through my hair, I didn’t have the time to do anything fancy with my hair and I didn’t have the energy either. I gave myself a once over in the mirror, shook my head and head to my room to grab my bag, hoodie and phone before joking everyone downstairs for breakfast. “The walking dead has arrived” joked Kyan, a I pulled him a sour face before flipping him off. “Avery Winters! I don’t care how old you are I won’t have that type of behaviour in my house!” Barked Mom, I knew I was playing with fire. I feared my mother more then my father despite him being the Beta of the pack, I was my daddy’s little princess and could do no wrong in his eyes and even though my mother loved me equally as much she was the backbone of the family and kept everyone in order. Her and my father have beta blood, generations of Winter’s running through pack blood. Mom wished more then anything that I had a shift, she said I would have been a great beta to the twins. ‘Oh how things change’ snapped Rain defensively. I dismissed her comment and took my place at the table. “Sorry Mom” i sighed apologetically, reaching over to grab some toast off the plate. “Xavier’s your going take to take Avery and Ky school before coming to meet me for your training” My dad ordered, i chocked on my food and all eyes were on me and I tryed to fake a cough. “But it’s my day to use the car!” I whined, I had passed my test a few weeks prior after begging and pleading with them for days to let me start using the car they finally gave in. “Plans change, we adapt” my mother said, it sounded more like a warning then it did a statement and that was the last I said on the subject. I ate my toast in silence before saying goodbye to everyone and leaving with my brothers. Our pack lands was vast, we were quite a well off pack compared to others, and we used all the wealth we had on expanding our own territory hidden deep in the Maine forests. This meant that our ‘local’ school was a half hour drive away, which I spent sat in silence reading up for the history pop quiz. Before I knew it we were parked up in the car park, I slid into my hoodie while Kyan climbed out of the car and rushed off to go see a group of his friends. “Any problems call me” Xavier sighed, since he left school he worries about me more then he should. “Yes I know” I muttered, the last thing I was going to do was call Xavier, he was still close to the boys hence the fact he’s going to be their beta and he was always quick to defend me when the teasing starts around him. I climbed out the car and waved goodbye. “Pick you up after school!” He called as he hurriedly drove away, dad was a stickler for arriving on time. I watched the car drive away into the distance before taking a deep breath and heading towards the school entrance. The moment my feet had crossed the thresh hold every wolfs disapproving gazes were on me, with a a few humans that just put there head down and kept walking past. They did not know of our kind all they saw was how I was treated, however none of them made any effort to stop it and I didn’t blame them, Harry and Regan were the undisputed kings of the school and to interfere with them is a death wish for Wolf and human alike. “Avery!” Called a voice from up the corridor and my eyes instantly met who wit was. Lila Hughes, my bestfriend and only friend. I rushed towards our lockers avoiding all the muttering and glares directed at me. Lila was a few inches taller then me with short ginger hair and a well toned body, she like every other wolf in our pack took part in training while I sat on the side and watched. “Hey” I smiled, unlocking my locker and sliding my bag in. She wrapped her unusual long arms around me and gave me a big squeeze, pushing the air out from my lungs “Only one week!” She cheered, jumping up and down reminding me of a over-excited child. “Please don’t remind me” I sighed grabbing out my history books and a pencil. Lila was adamant, along with the rest of my family that I would have my first shift on my 18th birthday which would also be the day I found my mate. “Oh come on Avery stop being so cynical! It will happen” she happily encouraged however her enthusiasm was misplaced. As much as my family could defend me if I didn’t shift by my 18th I would be practically useless to the pack and knowing how the twins think I would be banished and sent away. The thought of leaving my family and Lila broke my heart but I knew it was inevitable, having a wolfless she-Wolf was unheard of and if other packs found out we would become a laughing stock. “Expect disappointment and you will never be disappointed” i muttered, closing my locker door. It had become my saying over the past few years, helping me cope with the pain as-well as suppressing it deep down. “Cynical, now hurry up before Mr Rodger’s sanctions us for being late” she groaned and we headed towards history together. History among with two other subjects were ones we shared with the twins, it used to be one of my favourite subjects until I became public enemy number one. As we walked in everyone was crowded around a desk in the middle of the room, which I soon reminded myself was Harry’s desk. As we pushed our way through I heard glimpse of what everyone was talking about. “It’s bound to be me” trinity boasted, the subject as usual was in who was going to be the twins mate. Trinity was what I called the werewolf version of a barbie doll with her flawless porcelain skin and her platinum blonde wavey hair. “I wouldn’t have it any other way” grinned Harry who had his arms wrapped around her waist protectively. Harry black and his brother Regan were identical twins, every aspect of them was matched to a tee. They bad jet black hair, Harry had his short with a natural curl where as Regans was slightly longer and slicked back. They had jaw lines chizzled to perfection paired with sharp cheeks bones and pearly white teeth, everything about them was flawless and they fulfilled every tick box for being good looking. “Why are you staring?” Snapped Harry, and it took me a moment to realise who he was talking to, me. “I wasn’t” I lied, rushing to my seat while everyone broke out into laughter. Lila took her seat next to me and shared a sympathetic look. “She probably thinks she could be the next Luna” cackled Trinity, smugly draping herself off of him to worsen the burn. Harry scoffed and shook his head, the all to familiar feeling of my heart breaking ached through my body. ‘What a jerk’ Snapped Rain, she was ready to go and slap them both. ‘Just focus, one week and we will be shunned and then we can go about our life’ I mumbled to her but my tone showed how disappointed I was. The door swung open and Mr Rodger’s strode in first followed by Regan. I diverted my eyes to a void another scene and focused on my textbook. “Mouths shut, Books away, pop quiz” Mr Rodger’s announced and everyone in the class apart from me groaned while I sat smiling. History went by quickly after that whole embarrassing ordeal and before I knew it was time for English, the bell rang and everyone dispensed from class immersed in different conversations. Me and Lila were the last to leave as usual, Mr Rodger’s through us a reassuring smile, him like a handful of other teachers where also were-wolves. I gave him a quick nod and hurried out wanting to avoid anymore attention. We where the first into the English class, Mrs Valentine was sat at her desk reading through test papers and looked up as we entered. “Good morning girls!” She smiled brightly, I don’t know how she had so much positivity and energy after teaching a bunch of high school students. “Good morning miss” we replied in unison taking our seats at the front. The calls filtered in as the warning bell sound pierced my ears, I may not have a Wolf but I still had some quality’s like sensitive hearing and I was fast when I wanted to be. The twins came in, Trinity clinging on to Harry’s arm staring up at him with such admiration, the same face I looked at them with for years. I tore my eyes away to avoid another scene and began reading our assigned book ‘Romeo & Juliet’. I inwardly scoffed, if I was cynical what was Shakespeare? As he walked past Harry grasped a handful of my hair and yanked. “What the hell you jerk!” I shouted, disrupting the silence that had fallen across the classroom followed by gasps and glares. “What you going to do about it mutt” spat Harry, his smirk had disappeared and was placed with intense anger and I knew I made a grave mistake. “Black! Winters!” Called Mrs Valentine, however me and Harry were to busy staring intensely at each other refusing to look away first. I could see every muscle in his face tensed under the pressure of keeping himself in control. ‘He’s hot when he’s angry’ purred Rain. ‘Oh stop it he’s a jackass’ I snapped back, I had given into his bullying and belittling for to long and I had finally had enough. “Sit down both of you!” She called, yet no movement was made by either of us. Everyone whispers got louder, Lila looked on in shock. “Fine both of you too the principals office now!” She shrieked, and then i broke. “But Mrs-“ I started in protest but she raised a finger and I instantly fell silent. “Go.” She replied bluntly and I packed up my things and rushed out, the class in fits of laughter and cheers. I raced down the halls, my eyes stinging with tears. How could I be so stupid to pick a fight with a soon to be Alpha, that was a death wish. I heard footsteps approaching behind me and quickened my pace. “I don’t think so” Harry growled, and I felt a firm hand wrap around my wrist and squeezed. The pain was excruciating, it felt is if all of my bones were snapping, he forcefully turned me around and pushed me into a row of lockers, my head hit them first and pain radiated through me and a cry slipped out. He stood towering over me and I sank against the lockers and falling into a puddle on the floor, tucking myself into a ball. “What do you think your doing” snapped another voice, I recognised it as Regan but my eyes reamed tightly shut. “Showing her who’s in charge” scoffed Harry, sending one of his feet straight into my ribs, this time I made sure to not make a sound and just drowned in the pain. I heard the sound of feet come closer and I tensed up and prepared myself for another pair of shoes meeting my already broken ribs. Instead I felt a warm pair of hands lift me up, I trashed defensively and threw my hand up and it collided with their face. Now I was defiantly dead. I opened my eyes and Regan stood in front of me, his cheek glowing red and his jaw hung open. “I-I’m so sorry!” I cried, automatically reached my hand out to touch it when they were slapped away by Harry. I took a step back, my breaths were shallow and quickening and it felt like I had swallowed glass. “How dare you!” Harry growled lunging forward, Regan put his arms up holding him back. “Leave it. Let’s go” Regan said coldly, striding towards the office. Harry followed behind, and I shuffled behind after each step causing me to wince. It wasn’t long before we’re stood outside the principals office, Regan reached out and knocked on the door. “Come in” called the deep voice inside. My stomach dropped and I felt as if I was going to puke. We walked in and Alpha Black was sat behind the desk, staring between us confused. As well as running a pack Alpha was also the principal, so he could keep a watchful eye on the young wolves. “What is the meaning of this?” He asked, eyes lingered on the glowing handprint on Regans face then at me clutching at my stomach, I quickly bowed my head in respect and kept my focus on my shoes. “This little bi-“ Harry roared, I shrank in my spot. “This was a misunderstanding” Regan said calmly, and then my stomach tightened. Regan glared at Harry, warning him to not say anything before they fell on me and they softened. “Harry?” Questioned Alpha Black, who was now leaning on his desk waiting for his son to answer. “Was just a misunderstanding” Harry bitterly muttered. Alpha Black looked at me and raised a eyebrow. “Avery?” He asked, I looked up nodded quickly not daring to say anything before bowing again. “Then that’s sorted, boys back to class now. Avery go visit the school nurse while I call your father to come get you” he ordered, the boys nodded and left silently. “I’m fine Alpha I promise” I squeaked, looking up at him pleading. The last thing I want was my father involved because no doubt he would tell mom and that’s were the problems start. “You can not heal as we can. Now go.” he ordered again, this was a Alpha command which you could not disobey as much as you wanted to. “Yes Alpha” I sighed and left the office, heading towards the nurses office down the hall. After the nurse checked me over and diagnosed me with a concussion and, as I thought, a broken rib. She helped me ice it down while I waited for my dad to pick me. To my surprise it wasn’t Dad in the drivers seat but Xavier. “I told you to call” he frowned, upset that I didn’t take his help. “Oh am I glad to see you” I sighed happily, climbing in the back wincing slightly. ‘I’m trying” Rain whined, even she could feel the pain I was feeling because she was syphoning it all. ‘I know you are’ I replied sympathetically.
