32 Chapter Two

"Alpha Xander, Luna Veroni- AH!" Aarons voice came through and Xander pulled the sheets up so quick in attempt to cover our bodies.

"Jesus have you heard of knocking?!" Xander barked.

"Jesus have you heard of not fucking my sister after she just got out of the hospital?!" Aaron retaliated. I quickly clipped the bra back together and popped out of the blankets, keeping my lower half covered.

"Hey sis." He said and my cheeks were already flush red with embarrassment.

"Hi.." I said, sinking under the blankets. And Xander had pat me on the head, wrapping an arm around my shoulders.

"Oh calm down, seeing you in a bra is like seeing you in a bikini, I'm good though as far as seeing the lower half." He said with a chuckle and I wasn't nearly as uncomfortable. I took one of the pillows and threw it at Aaron, he caught without a problem and threw it back, smacking me in the face.

"Hey!" I yelled, shoving the pillow down on the bed. He raised his hands in defeat, smiling playfully. Then what he was originally going to say came back and his face turned back to a serious demeanor.

"Anyways, the rouge breakout is getting bad, some of our people are even turning to their sides."

"What?" Xander asked, his tone of voice thick and filled with frustration. assuming the boys were about to start talking pack business I rolled off the bed before opening the drawer in my night stand pulling out the first pair of shorts I could find. Of course they were fucking volleyball shorts. After I got them on, I then changed into a sports bra, keeping myself low to the ground. When I was all dressed I got up and ran out the door before either of the guys could stop me. Becca came out of hers and Alexi's room at the same time and saw my attire then went back in her room knowing my plan and she was damn well going to tag along. When she was ready I tied my hair into a ponytail on the way down the stairs and out the door we went.

We'd been running for a while. I was running to get out all my stress out and cool off a bit. It took me a while till I realized there was a little girl running beside me, bright eyed and I couldn't help but smile at her. When she finally got tired she went back home leaving Becca and I alone once more. Fifteen minutes later we were both finally out of breath and we stopped to sit down under a tree.

"Sooo, do you want to talk about what happened or is it too soon?" Becca said, laying beside me with her head on my lap.

"It's not like I'm traumatized from it. Just a little shocked. And besides, I've been through worse." I said, leaning my head against the tree.

"Define been through worse." An old but familiar voice asked from above us. I looked up and my heart dropped.

"Becca, listen to me. We're going to shift and run to the pack house, as fast as possible." I whispered and she heard the strict tone in my face and didn't argue.

"It wasn't real silver, what can I say?" He said and I shuddered back, the chills only feeling more noticeable.

"Run." I said and Becca sifted before me and we both ran as far and fast as possible, Daniel following close behind. I mind linked Xander on the way back, telling him to stand outside and wait. He was a bit confused but obliged anyways. I saw Xander in sight and shifted back just in time for him to catch me as he practically threw me back into the pack house and then came in behind me, slamming the door on Daniel and immediately locked the door.

"I thought he killed himself!" I said, forcing my body flush against the wall and didn't even notice how much I was shaking.

"Who killed themselves?" Clyde asked on the way down the stairs taking in the scene. His eyes had landed on me, then Beccas and then the door which was being banged on like someone was trying to break into the pack house.

"Oh little Veronica.. You think you're safe? That little show just made this my best hunt that I'll ever have... And I'm eager to see what you and that.. Lia was it? Anyways.. I can't wait to see what you're like in bed.." Daniels voice said and I felt the tears gather in my eyes as I slid don the wall, Becca and Ophelia both enveloping me in their arms. Xander and Clyde let out fierce growls and if someone wanted to know who the alphas were, and heard those two, they wouldn't question anymore. Suddenly, I felt Xanders hands wrap around my arms as he pulled me up and cradled me against him. While walking up the stairs he abruptly stopped then looked over his shoulder saying, "If anyone... walks through our doors, I will rip your head off. I don't care who you are, I will." He snarled and I shrank down in his arms. We passed by the the different rooms before the large wood textured doors came into view and Xander practically kicked it open before dropping me onto my feet and slammed the door behind him, locking it while still facing me, his eyes piercing through me like a predator watching its prey. He then started stalking towards me and I began to back up till finally, I bumped into our dresser.

"You shouldn't have gone. You or Becca could've been kidnapped, or worse." he said and it was like my hormones had taken over when he started to use his protective dominant voice.

"I-I know... I just wanted to c-cool off from the last few d-days.." I spat and I could hear the distortion in my voice and Xander knew the effect it had on me which is why he released a low, deep chuckle and trapped me against the dresser.

"Mm baby I've missed these times.."
