The Bite

Chapter 10: A Long Week Coming

Evening
Monday [4:37 pm]

I was interrupted from my moment of bliss by approaching footsteps. I quickly moved from Iris's grasp, ignoring the protests from both her as well as my beasts, and stood from my spot on the floor.

It wasn't long before those footsteps had reached the doorway. There stood the Kenseys, the alpha holding a bucket presumably filled with water with towels hanging off the sides while the Luna held a change of clothing in both her hands. "What are you doing in here?" Mack asked, walking over to her daughter.

Not really sure what to do, I make a hasty exit. I ignored Jades, the Luna's, calls and rushed down the stairs. 'Where are you?' I asked, walking past the bundling wolves as they moved with a purpose.

'We're in the main house, why? What's going on?' Meo replied, worry lacing his tone. I don't answer and just continue my trek towards the house. Once I made it to the steps, I could already hear my chaotic siblings as they all sat on the couch watching a movie on the tv.

Meo stood off to the side watching the small group while Rick sat beside Mia with his arm over her shoulder. "God, I hate that guy.." I growled, feeling a rumble in my chest. "And I thought your sister was protective." Meo teased, walking over with his arms cross over her chest. He no longer wore his tank top but a white t-shirt.

"He sucks. He has no manners, no respect for me or Mia. He's a douche." I clenched my fists at my sides, feeling a sharp prod at my palms. "Hey..calm down." Meo muttered, resting his hand on my arm. "Just relax." He rubbed his hand up and down in a soothing nature.

I took a deep breath and slowly released my hands. My eyes had closed as I took another breath. "How do you do that..?" I couldn't help but ask. "I told you already I'm—"

"If you say you're inside me one more time, I will claw your eyes out." I seethed.

   He chuckled and held his hands in surrender. "I'm the one who bit you, who turned you. Think of me as a sire for vampires, only for wolves." He explained, stuffing his hands into his pocket.

"The bite formed a connection between us. It's nothing romantic or anything like that, it's more of a bond. A strong bond. In a way, your beasts see me as an anchor, like the way you would feel about an older brother."

"An older brother, huh." I smirked, laughing at the pink fluttering across his cheeks as he rubbed the back of his neck. "Listen, we've gotta go. Who knows when my parents will be back and I don't want to be grounded a second time. The first grounding hasn't even ended." I said, turning to my siblings.

"Yeah, that would suck." He said.

"Alright guys. It's time to go." I announced as I walked over to the group. This earned a string of 'awws' as they immediately began their protests, all but Mia that is, who got up as soon as I spoke.

"Cmon, five more minutes." Mateo whined, turning to face me with his chest against the back of the couch. "Boy, I am not your mother. Get up, and let's go." I scoffed, ignoring his muttered complaints as he began to put on his shoes, which he placed at the door.

It wasn't long before Jayden had put her shoes on as well and we began walking through the front door. Everyone piled into the car, getting into the same spot we arrived in. Though I of course hugged Meo before getting inside. "I've got a plan, don't worry." He whispered, "That somehow worries me." I replied, earning a pinch to my side.
