Chapter 6
Rachel came in early this morning and told me I'd be starting school tomorrow and to be honest I'm terrified. What if normal people don't like me, that would just make me sick knowing I'm not wanted anywhere however I had to start somewhere. Stacking the dishes away I heard rustling and turned around to see somebody rummaging through the cupboards, my first instinct was to grab the pan. But if they ignored me they would have had to live here, yiu could never be too careful. Holding the pan out I tiptoed slowly over to the pecupboard but when I was close there was no one there. Standing there confused and I jumped when I felt someone breathing down my neck
"Never let you guard down" a husky voice spoke. On instinct I shut my eyes and turned quickly and swung my arms back but I never felt the impact
"Don't try hit me" I heard a familiar laugh
Peeking my eye open I saw Gabe standing front of me, his dark brown eyes were blurry but tinged with grey making them frightening and beautiful. I blushed at the small space seperating us. He still held my wrist above my head, our bodies inches from one another. My heart rate picked up and my body heated, why am I feeling like this. I should only feel like this with my mate
Something's not rright
"Can you let my wrist go" I asked prying my eyes away
"I like it this way" he leaned closer his chest brushing my head, his height was similar to Jay's and I hated being short
"Well I don't" I lied trying to get my wrist free but his grip tightened
I was being to dependant on Jay. Whats wrong with me, I like the way Gabe was looking at me but I felt like I was cheating. Why would anyone ever want me, even bother taking a second look
"How's alpha Bradyn" he smirked
"Jay's fine" I said harshly
"Feisty, I like that" he released my hand and stepping away
I groaned and stormed away, I had only managed to get to the doorway when Gabe stood in front of me with his arms crossed. He had muscles but nothing compared to Jay's. He was smirking at me and next thing I know he's picked me up and threw me over his shoulder, growling I started hitting and kicking at him but he only laughed at my attempts to get off
"Let me go!" I yelled slapping the back of his head
"Soon but I want to play a game first" His voice came out husky and threatening
I tried reaching for my phone to call Jay but Gabe beat me to it and reached in my back pocket and pulled it out. I could feel the chilly morning air on my butt and down my back, I momentarily shivered before I was lifted down and put on a beach chair. Feeling a little cold I tucked myself into a ball
"Look at me"
"Why" I stared at the pebble path surrounding the pool
"Look Abby" he said in his alpha voice, I hated when they did that they can't just control you it's irritating
"That doesn't work on me" I kept my voice hard, I will not be easily intimidated
The chair was pulled forward and my face was inches away from his. My breath caught in my throat and I gulped, only Jay should make me feel like this but for some reason Gabe carries a sensual aura around him a thing only your mate should make you feel, Before comprehending what he was about to do his eyes locked with mine and they were clouded with lust, his eyes travelled down to my lips hungrily and he leaned in closing the last inch of space. His lips brushed mine lightly and tasted like chocolate, his lips were soft and felt like......Jay's. I liked Jay's lips, Gabe had lips like his, I wanted more
My eyes closed to their own accord but then suddenly his lips left mine and I heard the sound of bones cracking
When I open my eyes I saw a glimpse of Jay's shaking figure when he turned into a huge black wolf. Jay was here, in his wolf, angry. His body no longer human and his skin stretching turning into black hairs, fur covered his body and he stood tall. Taller than me on all four's his height was intimidating and I cowered away. I have never actually seen Jay's wolf but as soon as I did I felt proud being Jay's mate and scared all at the same time. His wolf threw himself at Gabe and his paws pinned his arms to the ground. Jay's growl echoed throughout the backyard and I crawled away from the sight. I turned around one last time and saw Gabe's shaking figure underneath Jay
"Jay!" I cried
He looked at me with regret and sadness before launching himself at Gabe but before he could get a hit Gabe turned into an exact copy of Jay. My mouth hung open and my mind was buzzing with questions. No wolves can look the same. Like human, they're all different and even when there were similarities, it was small. Gabe kicked Jay off of him and went flying backwards landing on his legs. Gabe ran and tackled Jay to the ground his canines sinking into his neck and Jay let out a growl
"Gabe!" I yelled. I ran over to where they were and when Gabe's wolf turned to me he slowly walked away and ran. Jay was still in his wolf form but I didn't care I ran to him and rested my hands on the top of his head. His breathing was fast and I tried to calm him down. Slowly resting my body against his I heard his bones snapping and a pair of arms wrap around me. I turned around and hugged him tighter wrapping my legs around his waist and my hands around his neck, I cried into his shoulder
"Abby, are you okay?" he whispered his voice soft
"You scared me, don't do that again" I cried getting off him wiping my teary eyes
"I'm sorry but I had to he kissed you" he said hard, his eyes turned black and his body began to tremble
He attacked Gabe because he kissed me. I knew the mate bond was strong but even the mate bond only was successful if the pair accepted each other. I on the other hand was still unsure what to do about Jay and Gabe being in the picture didn't help at all. There was a pull towards him
"I'm sorry" I sighed lowering my head. I want me and Jay to work that's why I came here but being away from him is harder than anything and Gabe seems so much like Jay
"It's not your fault" he put a finger under my chin and lifted it up letting me look into his eyes
"Yes it is, I let him kiss me" I tore my eyes away from his
It was quiet until I felt a pair of lips on my own, heat exploded through my body and I wanted more. His lips were a little rough and Jay's hand travelled to the hem of my shirt lingering there. My arms wrapped around his neck and his hand slowly travelled down to my thigh, holding me closer. Jay took the opportunity to slide his tongue in my mouth and he liftes my shirt up. The way he touched me like this was thrilling, enticing and the way he made me feel was undescribeable. I could feel myself being lifted off the ground but the kiss never broke even when he opened and closed the door, how he managed to do that was beyond me. I was pressed up against the wall my legs wrapped around his waist. His tongue in my mouth made my core burn, every bone, every muscle was anticipating his next move. His hands were greedily roaming over every piece of my exposed skin, mine were doing exactly the same
His lips trailed down my neck where he started sucking and a moan escaped me, he smirked against my neck before leaving a single kiss there. His hands gripped my thighs and he locked eyes with mine
"I love you Abby" he said breathlessly
My mouth opened to say something but the words never came out. He loved me, he actually loved me. I can't believe this it's all I've ever wanted and my mate is right in front of me. I smiled and pressed my lips to his, he was shocked at my new found confidence but responded seconds later. Love was not easy to find and it wasn't easy to say it back to someone. I was never loved but maybe I had a chance here. Pulling away from him I smiled like an idiot before he lowered me down to the floor
"Same" I grinned. When I looked down I realized he was naked and I averted my eyes away
"It's only for you" he smirked and hugged me
"Shut up" I mumbled and slapped his chest "Go and get dressed"
"I though we were going to finish the job" he smirked wriggling his eyesbrows
"Just go" I said walking away but his hand came down suddenly and slapped my butt "ow" I frowned rubbing where he had just slapped me
I was pressed against the wall with Jay spooning me. His lips came down on my neck
"Don't tease me" he growled placing kisses along my shoulder
"I wasn't" I dont know what came over him but every time he touched me it made me feel wanted and needed. I've never felt like doing anything with anybody until Jay came along. I liked it
"Well I don't know if I should get dressed now" I felt him smirk
"Go" I said but it must have sounded like a question, something was digging into mme. I gasped and pushed him off me
"Tease" he smiled pecking my lips and walking away
While Jay was getting dressed I wandered over to the couch. My mind was running back to Gabe but my heart was stuck on Jay. The pair seemed so much alike it was awry but in so much ways they could be the complete opposite, while Jay was caring and sweet Gabe would be rough and mean. The pair were oddly the same and their wolf, that was confusing me because only twins could look the same and even then it's really rare or what I've been told anyway. It just struck me that I could be over-thinking the situation but ever since I met Gabe I've been intrigued to discover what he's hiding or if he even is
I heard footsteps coming downstairs and I started fidgeting with my fingers to keep myself occupied but it only made me look awkward sitting there. He was going to know that something's wrong with me but even if I did hide it well enough he'd still catch on even though I've known him for this little amount of time, he knows practically every little detail about me. He had to he was the alpha. I have some weird feeling he's watching me all the time but suppose it's to get to know me since I don't really like talking
"Let's play 21 questions" Jay suggested sitting on the couch, placing me on his lap, my face heated up and I covered my face in my hands. I will never het used to this and I thought about what to ask Jay but the only thing that came to mind was why Gabe looked like him, it was strange
"So why does Gabe look like you" I asked confused as soon as I mentioned his name his body tensed under mine. He turned me around so I was straddling him
"I need to tell you something Abby"
I frowned but nodded
"Go ahead" I cupped his face to keep his nerves settled, I had an overwhelming urge to but he pulled my hands away, I felt rejected
"It's not something alot of people know except my parents and a few close people, including your brother" Aiden knew something about Jay that I didn't, well he is friends with my brother and not me. The though of Jay so serious worried me but how bad could his news really be
"What are you keeping from me" I asked concerned and sat opposite Jay instead of on top of him
"Don't think of me differently okay?" he asked coming to kneel in front of me
"I won't" I gave him an encouraging smile
There was a long pause and Jay would look anywhere except me. He exhaled slowly
"Gabe is my twin brother"
My body froze
Gabe is his twin brother, what the hell. This can't be happening, Jay has a twin that he never told me about sure I wasn't exactly good friends with him but he knew my brother well enough to tell him what's so different about not to tell me. He's a twin but why isn't Gabe living at the pack house with him. My anger turned back into curiosity again. Jay has alot of nerve to bubble my emotions so much in a short amount of time but right now I want to know everything about Gabe and his family
"Tell me everything Jay" I said sternly. He sighed and got up and sat opposite me. He twisted and turned and I've never seen him so vulnerable and uncomfortable. He's an alpha he's supposed to be a leader and stay strong but seeing him like this makes my heart melt
I don't know how long we sat there but it was a long time. He was just analyzing the situation and I was stuck there watching him. If he wasn't going to tell me I might as well have left
"Gabe is my twin brother but when we were younger my father wanted to give me the alpha title because he though I'd be more suitable for it. But because Gabe is, well him he wanted to fight me for it. My father stood him down because he was being selfish but I though he was right, the eldest should carry the tile but my father didn't approve" he stopped and looked at me, he looked sad, the way he talked about his brother. It was a rare moment to see the alpha like this and I cherished it so I went over to him a wrapped my arms around him
"I'm here for you" I squeezed him tighter
"I know" he kissed the top of my head "Anyway when my father left my brother came to me and said that I was the worst thing that ever happened to him and he left" he stopped again
When I looked up Jay was looking away towards the backyard and I wanted to do was make him feel better since I caused him the pain. I cupped his face and kissed him softly and sweetly, his lips moved perfectly with mine and I could feel the love he had for me. He ran his hands through my hair and pulled it back giving him more access to it. The kiss turned heated quickly when he picked me and sat me on his lap. I started to kiss down his neck and suck on his neck like he did to mine earlier but I didn't know if I was doing it right since this was my first time. But by the sounds escaping his mouth I must of been doing a good job
"I can't wait to mark you love"
"I can't wait for that day" I kissed his nose
"Me either" When I looked up Gabe was standing at the foot of the door leaning there with his arms crossed. Was he listening the entire time in our conversation
"Do you have a mate?" I asked staring at Gabe
"Yeah and she's pretty beautiful" he smiled walking around the doorway
"Who is she?" I felt a little jealous
"Ask Jay" Gabe grumbled
I looked at Jay and he had a irritated look on his face, he was glaring at Gabe and I snapped my fingers in front of him
He snapped his eyes to me and sighed "Twins like Gabe and myself share the same mate"
