Chapter 9
Tyson POV
What a disaster that was. I knew Reika would be pissed off because she was our mate. Exactly
why we had avoided telling her, but I wasn’t expecting her to lose her shit so badly. Ryker just gave us
a knowing look. Like he already knew all along which wouldn’t surprise me, he was very observant.
Ryker was more disappointed that Ace had been fooling around with Melana knowing he had a
mate. Reika didn't care about that, she was more furious we were her mates, she wanted to kill us. We
can’t help who our mate is, that isn’t up to us to decide, she knows this and it wasn’t like Lucy was
actually related to us, she was in no way a relation to us. It didn’t seem weird to me, I could understand
her freaky out if she were our niece but she isn’t we don't share the same blood thankfully because
yeah that would be disgusting and I would have to reject her but I wasn’t going to reject her just
because her mother is uncomfortable with the situation.
“Great now what?” Ace says leaning on the car watching after Lucy who took off. I felt terrible for
her, she couldn’t even get a word in and it ticked me off that Reika was so angry she would hit her. I
feel partially to blame, I don't think she would have struck her if she wasn’t also angry with Ace and I.
Hearing the door open, I look to the packhouse to see my brother come out.
“Reika will calm down, I know you guys didn’t ask for this but you have to realise, to her it is a little
weird” He explains and I nod running a hand through my hair.
“I know she is your stepdaughter but I am not rejecting her Ryker” I tell him.
“I don’t expect you to, I had my suspicions” He admits and Ace looks at him.
“You knew?” Ace asks and Ryker shrugs, “Little obvious with how you are always first to jump in
when something goes wrong with her, how you were constantly drawn to her the moment we got her
back” He says before looking in the car.All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.
“Where is she?” he asks.
I see Ace mindlink her, his eyes glazing over before he focuses back on us. He growls not happy
but answers. “She is going to Mitchells” He says and I feel a pang of hurt knowing she ran to him and
away from us.
“Does she know?” Ryker asks and I shake my head.
“Are you going to tell her?”
“We will see if she figures it out first, besides Ace kind of ruined us telling her today” I tell him
glaring at my twin. Ace looked away and I could tell he wished he now waited. He never wanted Lucy to
catch him like that, especially with Melana.
“What do you mean?” Ryker growls looking at him. Ace doesn’t answer.
“Lucy walked in on him with Melana,” I told Ryker. Ryker growls and glares at him, I told Ace to
wait but he was too much of a ladies man. Bloody fool. Lucy won’t be happy when she finds out, he
should have been thinking of the effects it would have on her, instead of thinking with his dick.
“Going to enjoy watching you dig yourself out that hole Ace, she rejects you, you have no one to
blame but yourself, Melana used to be her friend. How could you?” Ryker growls at him.
“I know I fucked up, Melana knows she will never be my Luna, she knows that, I made sure that
was clear. She won’t be an issue. I will break it off with her tonight, ok?”
“No, it's not ok, you never should have been involved with her in the first place” Ryker yells at him.
Ace hangs his head but hey I wouldn't be upset if she rejected him. I could have her to myself. The
idea of sharing her with my brother grossed me out.
“Once Reika calms down she can come back home, but until then keep an eye on her” Ryker says
before walking inside. I look at Ace.
“I told her to be home by dark” He says and I nod before opening my car door and climbing in. Ace
climbs in beside me, shutting his door and I start the car heading home.
“Drop me to Melana’s on the way” I look at him.
“I swear to god Ace, if you being with Melana fucks everything up I will fucking kill you” I tell him.
“If anything it will stuff me over, you didn’t do anything besides I never wanted Melana, she was
just a distraction” He says and I roll my eyes. I doubt Melana sees it that way.
I dropped Ace tp Melana’s apartment in the city and he told me he would run home when he was
done dealing with her. Driving home, I pull up out the front and lean my head against the headrest.
Tyrant was pissed off, that we just let her run off. But what does he want me to do? I couldn’t control
her and tell her what to do, she wasn’t even aware we are her mates and the last thing I wanted her to
think was that she was unwelcome here, or force her here and have hate me for it. Opening the
mindlink, I feel for her teether, all our packs now branch of each other now under the Lycan kings rule
we now have a link to any of us in an alliance, well except Alpha Jamie’s pack he likes to make things
increasingly difficult and I knew I would have to deal with him sooner or later, I knew his pack warriors
would have alerted him to Lucy’s presence when she stepped across the border.
“What Tyson?” Lucy asks when her side of the link opens up.
“Just checking on you, make sure you come back here before dark. I don’t want you roaming the
streets” I tell her.
“Yeah whatever you say Alpha” She says and I could hear her aggravation in her voice, sometimes
I think she hated being the only out of my entire family that doesn’t have an Alpha aura, doesn’t have
the ability to stand up for herself especially against her mother now she is mated to my brother.
“You don’t need to call me that, Lucy. You know that” I tell her. She didn't answer but I could feel
the link open still and knew she was listening.
“What are you and Mitchell doing?” I ask her, trying to keep the jealousy from my voice. I hated
how close they were even while she was away. I knew she never went a day without talking to him
even if it was just text messages.
“Nothing, but Meredith invited me to stay for dinner, so I will head back after that” She tells me.
“I will come pick you up, I don’t want you walking in the dark” I tell her.
“No, I am good, Mitchell can run me back” She says and I sigh.
“Fine but not late Lucy, if you aren't going to school, you can start training then with me of a
morning”
“What, yelling at me wasn’t enough, now you want to beat the living daylights out of me” She says.
“No, we can discuss it when you get here, not late Lucy. I mean it or I will come and find you” I
warn her and she cuts the link off and I sigh. I have no problems grabbing her while she is kicking and
screaming, I was used to her defiance, and the major chip on her shoulder. Though it has gotten worse
the last year or so, she very rarely talks to us anymore, or if she does she shoves us out when we
become a little too nosey when we would mindlink her.
Ace and I have discussed with each other that something was off but then we see her and she is
her normal loud bubbly self, she was hard to take seriously, didn’t help she was constantly in trouble
with some authority figure but something was off. I could feel it, Tyrant could feel it too, she changed.
Something within her changed or maybe she was just becoming more aware of the bond and didn't
know what to make of it without having a wolf.
