Jealousy

Amber's pov  "It'll fail" I said going over my mother's plan, probably fed to her by that little wench. "No it won't, they'll be too occupied by the party and the twins potentially finding their mates, they won't see it coming!" Emily yelled but I just sat there looking at her. "How dumb can you be?" I asked her and she glared at me, "what did you say to me?" She seethed and I looked at her with a small smile, "you have to be real stupid to think they'll be that vulnerable, especially after what happened when you sent kids on a scouting mission without my permission and got them killed" I said glaring at her and my mother. "You may be the queen here mother but that is my army, you shouldn't have gone behind my back and I will not lead my army into a m******e" I said already done with this nonsense. First they got a group of kids killed and now they want to finish off my people? To hell with that, I will not let this little witch get my people killed so she can get her revenge.  My mother sat quietly in her chair while her little witch paced the room cracking her head, she then suddenly stopped and looked at my mother with pleading eyes, "yes there will be casualties but this is war, death is inevitable. But with my magic, we can win this" she said and I saw my mother's eye brows furrow, was she really considering this nonsense? "They have witches, three of the most powerful witches on this planet, they have lycans that have magic and no thanks to you, the inner part of the forest is protected by a barrier made by the earth witches, if patrol doesn't kill us, the trees will" I said matter of factly, "it's a suicide mission and you know it. They'll probably triple security for the party. I will not lose my men because of your impatience" I said getting up to leave. "Get the army ready, we attack tomorrow night" my mother said and I looked at her, disbelief gripping me, "mother, you c..." I started to say but she cut me off, "that's an order commander" she said and I saw Emily smirk at me.  Stephanie's pov  I was making my way to the hospital to check on Louis and Justin, there were going to be discharged today and I wasn't sure how to feel about it. Them being in the hospital was the only time I got to spend with them, privately, well more like spend time with Louis than Justin. I've had the biggest crush on Louis for as long as I've known, Justin isn't so bad, he's just different from his brother. While he is a man w***e, Louis is more gentle, sensitive, smart and not to mention the more dominant of the two, strong, sexy and everything I want in a mate. When my brothers found their mate on our birthday but I didn't, it kinda spark a little hope that I could be their mate and months went on and I still didn't find my mate and now they're going to turn eighteen tomorrow and I'm so excited. Although Louis has never made a move on me and always treated me like family than a potential lover, if I'm his mate or their's, he'd have to look at me in a different light but I'm thankful that he'll dump Hope, his girlfriend of two years and yes, I don't like her.  I reached the hospital and went straight to Louis's room, excitement bubbling up at the prospect of spending some alone time with him. I reached his but froze when I heard laughter inside, damn it, he's not alone, taking a deep breath to compose myself, I knocked and opened the door. "Hey Steph" Hope said with a bright smile, "hey" I said faking mine, although I don't like her, I'd never shown her or acted jealous around her, I was nice and easy going and most times we hung out, Justin was there, constantly seeking my attention so no one noticed my little crush on his brother. "How's the leg?" I asked sitting on the chair since Hope was sitting on the bed with Louis, which was kinda grinding on me right now, why does she have to be so close to him all the time? "Relax Stephanie, Justin isn't here to distract them", I said to myself feeling like exploding. "It's all healed up, I'm actually getting discharged" Louis said and I was taken aback a little, I didn't know that, why didn't he tell me yesterday when I was here?  "When did you find out they were letting you go home?" I asked wanting to be clear before I blew things out of proportion, "Doc told me yesterday when he checked up on me in the morning" he said and I frowned. "Why didn't you tell me yesterday when I came to see you?" I asked, a little irritation slipping through, "I didn't think it was a big deal and I'd already asked Hope to pick me up so we could spend some alone time before my birthday tomorrow. I'll be able to sense my mate from midnight so I wanted to spend as much time with her before the bond makes me forget just how much I love her, that's if she isn't my mate" he said with the most gentle smile I've ever seen on him before kissing her sweetly. Jealousy flamed through me but I hid it well, "you should have told me, I would have given you guys space to do whatever, you know" I said getting up to leave, "I'll see you around then" I said going for the door but I got no response, already gone back to giving his girlfriend all of his attention. He's always been like this, always looked at Hope like she was the only girl in the room, like no one could even compete with her, maybe she was his mate and their wolves realised it as they neared maturity, Hope turned eighteen a few months ago. The chances of her being his mate are quite high and the thought totally devastated me.  I walked out of the hospital and just wandered around the territory, a growing anger clutching my chest, what if I wasn't their mate, would I ever be able to accept that Louis will never be mine? I don't think I ever could. I wonder who my mate will be, will I even find my mate? There are people who die without meeting their mates, will I be one of them? Oh goddess please anything but that. "Hey Steph!" I heard someone call, I turned to the person and it was Justin coming my way, "hey, when did you get out?" I asked already annoyed that either brother bothered to let me know they were getting discharged. "Yesterday" he said with a small smile, "where are you going, maybe I can come with you" he said snaking his hand around my shoulder, "nowhere really, wanna get some coffee with me?" I asked already changing directions, now going to the cafe. "Are you asking me on a date?" He asked squeezing me to his side and I laughed, "aren't you confident" I said chuckling and he laughed with me, "confident in my charm? Yes, confident that you're madly in love with me? Absolutely" he said and I laughed harder, leave it to Justin to cheer me up real good.
