Dimitri's Wrath

Chapter 2 - Not Everyone Is Happy In Paradise.

Do you remember that scene in Home Alone where everyone is rushing around getting ready to go on vacation and it's literally so chaotic to the point that nobody even noticed the police officer who was standing in their hallway?.

Well, that's exactly what the Vasquez household looks like right now but minus the cop and there's a bunch of grumpy and excited teens, a stressed out momma wolf and a father who is trying to please everyone whilst making sure his wife doesn't get too angry or stressed.

Everyone is rushing around getting ready for Hawaii and we've gotta leave soon but I highly doubt we will and we'll be late like we usually are because from the looks of it, I think I'm the only one who's ready to go.

I head downstairs with my bags in my hand and I huffed in annoyance when I saw Grayson was fast asleep on the recliner.

I dropped my bags on the floor in the hall before walking over to where my lazy brother is sleeping like a baby.

I honestly don't know how he can sleep through all of this noise and chaos, it's crazy.

"Gray...Grayson...GRAYSON!!"

Gray jumped when I shouted his name, he looked around the room before looking up at me and groaning in annoyance.

"Urgh!!, what?"

"What? that's a great word, Grayson, you know what's another great word? why as in why is your lazy ass sleeping whilst everyone else is rushing around getting ready for the trip?"

I ask him annoyed.

"I'm not sleeping D, I'm daydreaming"

"Oh really, with your eyes closed?"

Grayson looks up at me and smiles.

"Mm-hmm, I was thinking about all of the sexy Hawaiians I'll get to f**k whilst we're there"

"Urgh!!, you're disgusting"

I said whilst rolling my eyes.

"Don't act like you haven't thought about it, D?"

"Actually, I haven't"

I may be a manwhore but I don't s**t on my own doorstep and I definitely won't on my grandparents either.

I'm gonna be the alpha of this pack one day and I don't want my future Luna to feel uncomfortable living in and running this pack with me because I stupidly screwed the unmated she-wolves so instead, I f**k girls who have got nothing to do with our pack or my families packs.

"Whatever you say, Dimitri"

Grayson says before going back to sleep and I once again roll my eyes at him.

"But dad, why do we have to leave so late at night? it doesn't make any sense"

"Yer dad, it's kind of stupid, I mean what's the point in going now when we can go in the morning and enjoy a full day there?"

"Exactly, if we go now then we'll have to go straight to bed, is it really worth it?"

My dad groaned whilst rubbing his forehead.

Xander and Xavier are the kings of asking stupid and annoying questions and they always find a way to piss us all off with their questions, well, except for momma, they really don't wanna do anything to piss her off or annoy her.

"Boys, I'm really not in the mood for your stupid questions right now just go and sit in the living room with your brothers whilst we wait for your mother and sisters to come down, ok"

"But that could take forever"

Xander and Xavier huffed before walking over to the living area.

When they both sat down, I gave them both a quick tap on the backs of their heads as a warning to keep their mouths shut and not stress our parents out even further.

Fifteen minutes later, our momma came downstairs with a very excited Kai in her arms as she shouted for Izzy and Massimo to hurry up.

"MASSIMO!! ISABELLA!! HURRY UP, WE'VE GOTTA GO!!"

"Ma, I'm in the kitchen"

Massimo shouts sounding like his mouth is full of food.

Of course, he'd be in the kitchen stuffing his face.

"Oh good, here babe take Kai"

My father takes Kai from my mother and I almost choked on the water that I was drinking when I heard what Kai said to our dad.

"Daddy, I can't wait to go to Hawaii, Gray said that we'll get laid when we get there"

"WHAT?"

My parents growled as they narrowed their glares at Grayson.

"Grayson Dean Vasquez, explain yourself right now, boy"

My momma shouted and I had to try really hard to suppress a smirk and a chuckle because Grayson won't be the only one getting his ass handed to him if my momma catches me enjoying this.

"She misheard what I said, ma"

"No I didn't, that's exactly what you said"

"No I didn't, Kai"

"Yes you did Gray, Kai doesn't lie"

That's true.

Kailani is the most innocent little girl in the world and she doesn't know how to lie, she always tells the truth even if it means she's gonna get into trouble.

"What exactly did you say to her, Grayson?"

My ma asks in a much calmer tone but I could tell from the look on her face and the way she was standing with her hands on her hips that she was still really pissed.

"I told her that when we arrive in Hawaii, we'll be given LEI'S as in the floral garlands, ma"

"Smooth Gray, real smooth"

I said through our mind link whilst shaking my head.

Anyone who knows my brother knows that he definitely made a comment about getting laid in Hawaii but he probably didn't know that our little innocent Kai was lingering around when he said it and he's spun it around into us receiving Lei's when we arrive there.

"Shut up, Dimitri"

Grayson growled through our mind link before turning back to talk with our parents.

"Besides, why would I say something about getting laid in front of my beautiful, impressionable baby sister?"

"Because you're a dirty-minded pig who is constantly thinking about w****s and s*x"

Isabella said as she made her way down the stairs causing us all to laugh, well, everyone except for Grayson who sneered at her.

"Shut up, Izzy"

"Make me"

"Alright, you two knock it off, for goddesses sake...is everyone ready to go? have you all got everything?"

My father asks us.

"Yes"

"Ok great, all of you go and get in the cars and I'll lock up"

We did what he said and got in the cars whilst a couple of warriors put our bags in the trunks.

A few minutes later, dad came out of the house and after speaking with our head guard, he gets into the car he's sharing with our momma, Izzy, Kai, Xander and Xavier and we all head off to the local airport.

After a thirty-minute ride, we arrive at the airport and board our private jet.

My father purchased this jet a few months after our mother had given birth to me and my brothers, he had several reasons for buying it but it was mainly for work and the trips that my parents take every year on their anniversary.

When we were all seated and settled on the jet, the plane takes off and we were finally on our way to Hawaii.

Six Hours Later...

We've finally arrived in paradise and it's really early in the morning.

The girls are all fast asleep and are being carried to the cars by my father, Massimo and myself.

After getting in the cars and making sure all of our luggage has been placed in the trunks, we head off to our mansion which is on the Royal estate and is right next to the castle where my grandparents and uncles live with their families.

The very first time we came here was when my brothers and I had just turned one and my grandparents wanted us all to live in the castle with them which we did at the time but our parents wanted privacy and knowing that more kids were gonna follow us three, they didn't want to put out members of the Royal pack so she asked our gramps if she can have a house built next to the castle and he reluctantly agreed to make her happy even though he would've preferred for us all to stay in the castle.

The drive from the airport to the Royal pack was at least an hour long and it took us a further ten minutes for us to get to our mansion when we arrived at the Royal estate because of not only the security but the long road which leads us to the castle and our house.

When we arrived, we were immediately greeted by our uncles beta and several warriors who are here to help us with our bags.

My father and Massimo take our mother and Kai up to our parent's room whilst I take Izzy to hers.

After making sure Isabella was comfy enough to sleep, I left her room and went straight to mine where I unpacked my things and had a quick shower before laying down on my bed.

For some weird reason, my wolf has been really antsy and on edge ever since we found out that we were coming to Hawaii and now we're here he seems even worse only now he's excited as well.

"Duke, can you calm down, please? you're starting to piss me off"

"Sorry Dimitri, I can't help it"

"What's going on? why are you acting so antsy?"

"I don't know, I just feel weird"

"Well, can you at least try and calm down, please? I've got a long day tomorrow and I need to sleep"

"Ok, I'll try"

"Thanks, buddy"

It took him some time but Duke eventually managed to calm down and I was able to fall asleep but little did I know that certain events would happen tomorrow and it would lead me to the reason why my wolf is so on edge.

Nina's P.O.V.

DRIP!!, DRIP!!, DRIP!!, DRIP!!.

The sound of dripping water from the pipes is the only sound I can hear as I wonder how my life went from being practically perfect to me being banished to the pack dungeons after being abandoned by my family and friends who all chose to believe the nasty lies of some stranger over their own daughter and friend.

My name is Nina, I'm eighteen years old and up until six months ago, I was living the perfect life, I had a boyfriend called Trey who I loved and adored, he was also my best friend and had been ever since we were little kids.

We were together for three years and we both strongly believed that we were mates but when Trey turned eighteen we realised that we weren't and I thought...actually, I hoped and prayed that we would never find our mates so that we could be together forever but my hopes and prayers were all in vain because he found his mate a few days after his eighteenth birthday when a new girl showed up at school.

At first, I was angry and heartbroken that I was losing my boyfriend to his mate and that he'd broken up with me so cold-heartedly to be with her but I quickly got over it when I realised that Trey was never mine and he was never going to be.

I avoided Trey for weeks afterwards and focused on my school work which wasn't easy considering Trey was constantly calling and texting me wanting us to meet up and talk but I always refused to answer him.

I thought I was doing all of this because I was still in love with him and that it would hurt to see them together but oddly enough when I did eventually see them together, I felt absolutely nothing and it was then that I realised any love I had left for him was just a friend loving a friend and I still cared so much for him because he was my best friend.

I guess the reason why my feelings for him have changed so much is because I had shifted into my wolf Eva when I turned eighteen which was around a week after Trey and I broke up and almost instantly before she even met him, she hated him and started to big up our mate and how he'll be even more handsome and stronger than Trey is.

"And he will be"

Eva interrupts me whilst rolling her eyes.

Anyway, Eva would talk about our mate non-stop and I couldn't wait until the day that I would meet him and smell his scent and feel the infamous shocks and tingles that everyone was talking about.

I was so enamoured with the thought of meeting my mate that I completely forgot all about Trey until one day when he cornered me in school wanting to talk with me and stupidly I agreed but to be fair, I thought I was gonna have a reasonable adult conversation with my best friend but the man I ended up conversing with was somebody that I didn't recognise.

You see, Trey was expecting me to be a heartbroken lover who would beg and plead for him to reject his mate and take him back so when he saw me being nonchalant and acting like we were never lovers, he got pissed and tried to choke me.

I begged him to let me go and for him to go and be with his mate but he refused too, saying that he loved me unconditionally and that he'd only let me go if I promise to reject my mate and become his mistress.

I was so angry with him that I kicked him in his family jewels and ran away but what I didn't know at the time was that his mate Kelly had witnessed our entire conversation and she wasn't happy at all that her beloved mate had A) been dating another woman and B) that he was still in love with me.

Rumours started to spread around the pack that Kelly was jealous of me, that she hated me and was plotting to destroy my life because she couldn't stand how pretty I am or how popular I am within the pack but most importantly because of my relationship with Trey.

Stupidly, I didn't believe the rumours and I thought it was just people wanting to cause trouble but sadly I was wrong and my altercation with Trey was actually the beginning of the end for me in this pack and for the next six months, Kelly would make my life a living hell.

My life went from being happy and perfect to being miserable and in tatters and it was all thanks to Kelly who turned not only my pack but also Trey, my friends and my family against me making them believe that I was insanely jealous of her and I was angry that Trey had chosen her over me and the worst thing is that he didn't even deny it, he just allowed her to slander me.

She would also tell anybody who would listen that I was bullying her and hating on her, she even stole my phone once and sent herself vile and threatening messages making it seem that I had sent them and there was also a lot of nasty rumours being spread about her which I know she's started but everyone believes that I started them.

Why? I don't know because everyone in this pack knows that I hate gossip more than anything so why would I start it?.

Kelly would also do things such as pretending to be the victim when she saw me making it seem to anyone that saw us that I was bullying her and she was pleading for me to leave her alone, she would also taunt me and push my buttons until I would flip out on her in front of the entire pack and then she'd cry fake tears to make herself look even more like a victim.

Things came to a head a couple of months ago when Kelly was found bloodied and beaten with her arm broken, I had no clue about any of this happening until one day when Trey confronted me and asked me why I had attacked his mate and accused me of doing it out of jealousy.

I didn't know what he was talking about and I explained to him that I had no knowledge of Kelly's attack but then he said Kelly had named me as her attacker and now my so-called 'reign of terror is over'.

I was so shocked and couldn't believe that this was happening to me.

I thought it was all a nasty joke but I quickly realised that it wasn't when alpha Kyron banished me to the dungeons for in his words 'the repeated bullying and the attempted murder of the beta female'.

I felt so hurt and betrayed but I didn't know why? was it because nobody trusted me and preferred to believe a stranger over me? or is it because they didn't even listen to what I had to say before dumping me in the dungeons?.

Anyway, this is where I am and where I have been for the past two months, hoping and praying that I'll be saved but the more the days go on and the more the alphas warriors beat and torture me to break me as they try to get me to admit to crimes that I haven't committed, the more I feel deflated and feel my hope shrinking into nothing.

Despite this, I'll never give up and I'll never admit to something that I haven't done.
