The Curvy Tomboy and Her Mate

The 21st Birthday Suprise

Riven's fighting blades.
Warrior by Beth Crowley.

Beads of sweat trickled down my torso as I swung my right fist, for the hundredth time, towards the blood painted punching bag. I sent attack after attack towards it using anything I could; leg, foot, knee, fist. I didn't stop until my chest was heaving for air. I gasped, swallowing as much oxygen as I could. All the while, the gas making my throat feel as though I was gulping down razor blades. Slowly my pulse calmed and my breathing didn't cut my insides.

I stood and made my way towards the weapons table. I grabbed my signature blades, stalking towards the practice dummies. I brought merciless swing after swing towards the lifeless thing until my arms were too tired to do anymore damage.

"If you keep training like that, no-one will ever be able to have the advange baby sis" Biron, my oldest brother, stated while leaning on the frame of the door.

"That is the point big brother"

"I want to be able to protect you little cub"

"I'm nearly 21 Bi, little cub is hardly the right name, plus you need to worry about the pack. You are taking over soon"

"Does not mean I can't look after you too"

"Bi go away, I'm sure you have lots of paperwork to do" I sighed, knowing all too well that those alpha genes were too stubborn to break through.

"Yeah true, just don't hurt yourself ok?"

"Ok" I smile towards him, earning one in return before he turned and left.

I gathered all my things before existing to my room for a shower.

            ***********************
Pulling on a sports bra and skin tight sports leggings to match, I walk towards the mirror. I tie my hair into a messy bun before applying some lip balm. Makeup is always a no no. I tie my laces and leave my room, locking the door behind me and replacing the key into my cleavage. What? All girls put something there.

I'm about to make my way down the stairs when someone grabs me from behind, instincts instantly react and I flip the attacker. I growl a throaty warning before pushing them into the nearest wall to me, face first.

"Woah easy there puppy, can't I mess around with my little sister?" Alex chuckled breathlessly.

"I could have hurt you, you absolute ass" I reply before letting him go from the face plant.

"But you didn't little twin, no-one can hurt their big brothers" he grinned proudly. I kick out my leg straight to his kingdom before he could say anything else, sending him to the ground in a ball of agony. "Y-you little... b-bitch"

"News flash 'big brother,' you are only two minutes older than me and I so can cause you pain - example A. Want example B?"

"N-not e-e-exactly" he gasped, still rolling on the floor.

"Good boy, I didn't think so" I tapped him on the head and shook my own sarcastically before leaving him there to consider where he went wrong.

I jog down the stairs and enter the living room where my other two brothers, Joshua and Joe were.

If you are wondering Biron is 29 he is about 6ft 7 with short blond hair and blue eyes, Joe is 27 about 6ft 8 with long brown hair and green eyes, Joshua is 24 6ft 6 with died blue hair (eyeroll) also with blue eyes (clash much) and Alex and I are 20 - soon to be 21 him being 5ft 11 with black hair and green eyes  and me being 5ft 9 with white hair and one blue eye and one green. I know weird right?

Anyway, the boys were sat on the sofa, playing the PlayStation so I sat between them.

"So who is winning?" I question staring at the screen.

"Josh" sighed Joe, making the winning brother smirk bigheadedly.

"Joe mind if I play?" Joe turned to me with his knowing grin.

"No you can not, that's not fair" Josh replied panicking, though his eyes never left the screen.

"Of course you can little sis" Joe replied, handing me his controller. In three swift moves I had killed Joshua's virtual character and three other online players, probably some of the boys friends. Joshua flung himself off of the sofa with a yell of frustration, earning laughs from Joe and I.

"Here you go big bear" I smiled, handing the controller back.

"Thanks sis"

"Anytime" I winked before going to the kitchen for a snack.

Finding an apple and some yogurt, I sit on the counter self satisfied. I finished up and discard of the core and packaging. Just as I went to leave, Mum and Dad entered.

"Ah, Riven stay. We need to talk to you" Dad said followed by Alex.

"I only kicked him in the balls because he questioned my strength and pride" I defended myself, raising my hands in the air.

"What on Earth are you talking about? You hit your brother?" Mum questioned, both my parents wearing blank expressions on their faces. I look at Alex who has his brow raised, telling me he hadn't grassed like I had thought.

"Never mind, do you know what this is about?" I question Alex while he shovels a whole banana into his gob, ewww. He shrugged in response.

"Both of you, sit" Dad demanded which we both obliged to.

"What's up Dad?" I asked, rather confused. Both my parents looked at eachother hesitantly, almost pushing eachother to give us what ever news this was to be.

"Well..." my Father began.

"It's your 21st Birthday soon and as you both know, this is where you become of age to be able to find your..." Mother interrupted suddenly.

"Mates" he finished off looking between both, Alex and I.

"Where is your point dear parents" I sight, Alex raised a brow in agreement.

"Well... we thought" Dad began.

"You thought" Mum interrupted again, earning his famous Alpha growl. "Growl at me again and I'll have you sleeping on the sofa" she warned.

"Anyway" Dad pressed on "We are holding a mating ball for the two of you. Both males and females of mating age, but unmated, is invited to meet you both" Both Alex and I just stared at our parents.

"Dad, do you not recall all the dates and arranged marriages you have tried to put Riven through and have you forgotten how very few people survived her terror?"

"Hey I'm not that bad you dick..."

"Language young lady"

"Anyway, Dad I love you and all but I do not need to find my mate because I do not intend on ever being in a relationship. I do not need a man, I am stronger alone."

"Riven we have had this discussion, you were born to have another half. For all you know, your mate could be a black wolf. So much power to response for and if you are to immature to just accept your mate then how can you expect strength, responsibility and respect?" My mother questioned.

"But..."

"No buts, you are both attending. Alex, you ARE going to wear a suit... And Riven, you ARE going to wear a dress, and yes some makeup even if it's natural and yes some heels and yes some jewlery."

"I hate you all" I whisper before running out the room....
