Alpha Twins And Their Hybrid Mate

I knew that everyone was waiting for my 18th birthday for me to shift. And before I knew it, my birthday was upon us.

I didn't want anyone to make a fuss over it so I hung out with the twins and Wendy that day but by night the twins took me to the woods on the other side of town. Not the one near their house.

We sat there in the woods, feeling the magical powers of the woods and letting it seep into us. The twins thought it might help, so we sat on the ground leaning up against a fallen tree and we were staring up trying to see the moon through the trees and chatting briefly.

Suddenly, I sat up when I started feeling something weird happening.

I looked down at my arms and I could see white fur starting to sprout on my arms

in patches, some on my legs as well. But that was about it. It was strange.

"How do you feel?" Tristan asked.

"I don't know. It's weird." I said.

"Do you feel like you're in pain?" Nathan asked.

"No. There's no pain." I said. And Nathan looked over at Tristan.

"That's not right." Nathan said. And Tristan nodded.

I looked at my hands in front of me but they stayed the same and I saw the

patches of fur sprouting on my arms and then it would disappear. Only for more to come up on different parts of my arms and then disappear again.

"What is this?" I asked, concerned.

"We don't know." Nathan said.

We were sitting out there for hours, watching this weird fur appearing and disappearing on my skin before it just stopped altogether.

I didn't shift. It looked like I was trying to, but something was stopping it.

I was really disappointed after that and the guys were doing all they could to

cheer me up. They knew that it was going to happen. It's just not going to happen tonight.

"Come on. Let's just go home." I said, standing up.

We walked back to the car and started driving home.

The guys never said it, but I could see the worry on their faces as well. I knew that they didn't know what was going on but no one was more disappointed than me. I hated that I couldn't shift and Ava was just as disappointed. She really thought this was going to be the night.

How am I meant to help with this pack's curse if I don't have a damn wolf? It doesn't make any sense to me.

It was hard enough and there was enough stress put on me knowing that I was the one that was meant to break the curse. But if I can't even shift, I was afraid that my twins were going to suffer this curse for the rest of their lives and I wouldn't be able to do anything about it.

When we got back to the house Wendy was waiting for us and she ran over to us when we pulled up.

She was looking really excited and I didn't want to be rude, but I couldn't deal with this right now.

I walked inside the house and went upstairs to our room but I saw the guys stay outside talking to Wendy.

I couldn't hear what they were saying but I knew that they were telling Wendy that nothing had happened and it was very disappointing to everyone.

She went back to her house and the twins came inside.

"Wendy told us to tell you that she's really sorry. But you're still her best friend. Even if you don't have a wolf." Nathan said. And I nodded my head.

I was sitting on the reading nook under the window and I looked back outside at the moon.

Tristan walked over and sat next to me, wrapping his arms around me.

"It'll be alright. We'll figure out what's going on. I mean, you do have a wolf. There's no reason why you can't shift." He said.

"The wolfsbane." I said. And he pulled his head away from me to look me in the face.

I guess they hadn't thought of that.

"The doctor said that the wolfsbane could interfere with your shifting." Nathan said.

"Yeah. And I think the witch has gotten what she wanted. She doesn't want the curse lifted. So, she's blocked it." I said.

Tristan rested his chin on my shoulder and he tightened his grip around me. Letting me know that he wasn't going anywhere.

"Well, it was a good birthday up until now. I don't know why I expected it to be any different." I said.

"Well, Wendy got you some awesome presents. And I hope you like what we got you." Nathan said, showing me the white gold wolf necklace.noveldrama

"I love my presents. It's the first time I've ever gotten birthday presents." I said.

"Are you serious?" Tristan asked.

"Yeah. Marilyn always thought that my birth was her accomplishment. Not mine." I said. And Tristan scoffed.

"That doesn't surprise me." He said.

"No. Of course not." I said. And Nathan sat in front of me and kissed me on the forehead.

"No matter what happened today. Just remember one thing. We still love you. And we always will." Nathan said. So I leaned forward and kissed him on the lips.

"I know that." I said.

None of us got much sleep that night. I was laying there staring up at the ceiling and the guys were trying to let me know that it was alright.

I told them that I knew that it was. Everything was going to be fine. But it didn't change the fact that I was still upset that I didn't shift.

The following morning Wendy and Sara both came to the house and the twins had told them about me not shifting before I even came downstairs.

When I got to the kitchen they all looked at me concerned. But I tried to ignore it while I got a coffee.

"Are you alright?" Wendy asked.

"I'm fine." I snapped.

"We're just worried about you. We don't want you to be discouraged that you didn't shift." Sara said.

"I'm not. Can we just forget about it?" I asked.

I know that they were worried that I was afraid I wouldn't be able to shift, but they weren't more afraid of that than I was.

If I couldn't shift then I couldn't help lift the curse and I don't know if the guys are gonna still want me if I can't stop the curse. But I can't tell them that. They are going to deny it, but when it comes down to it, no one knows how they are going to choose. They might tell me that they don't want me anymore and they have to mate with an actual werewolf.

I don't really care about anything else. I was more scared about losing the twins. And that's not something that I could voice out loud.

"Alright. Well, why don't we go and do something today to get our mind off of everything?" Wendy asked.

"Like what? There's nothing to do around here?" I asked, sitting at the kitchen island.

"We can find something to do. We can't go swimming because that water is freezing now. But we can do something." She said.

"Yeah, come on. Let's get out of the house for a bit." Tristan said, standing behind me and putting his arms around me.

I guess I should probably enjoy this while I still can. So I agreed.

We left the house and we all piled in the twins car and they took me out to get something to eat and then we went for a drive along the highway where Tristan really put his foot down and we kept driving, he didn't care how far we were getting away from town.

But when we got to the next town a couple hours later we pulled up outside a store and I got out to stretch my legs and Wendy and Sara stayed outside with me with Nathan and Tristan went inside to buy what they needed.

We were standing there minding our own business when a bunch of guys walked past and saw us standing there, feeling the need to stop and talk to us. Wendy and Sara were talking back to them, but then they started talking to me and one was getting really close to me. Which was a big mistake. The guys came out of the store as that guy was standing right in front of me, definitely invading my personal space and I wasn't even responding to him at all. "Hey. That didn't take you guys long." I said, drawing his attention to the twins. But they didn't say anything. They walked over to us and they were both looking down on the guy that was standing in front of me and Nathan grabbed me by the hand and pulled me out from where I was wedged between the guy and the car.

He quickly backed off as soon as he saw the twins and how big they were as well

as their muscles. He didn't stand a chance. So he and his friends left.

"Are you alright?" Nathan asked.

"Yeah. He was just getting too close for comfort." I said.

So we got back in the car and we headed to a lake where we all sat down and

had a picnic together and played a game of football, even though it was an uneven number of people and I was the only non werewolf there. But none of them were using extra strength or anything. They were making me feel included. It was pretty great being away from that town for a day.

That night when we got home Dean was at our house and when I walked into the living room I saw heaps of birthday presents on the dining table. But Dean and Alpha Robert were in the middle of a screaming match.

It was pretty obvious that they did not like each other very much at all. "Hey." I yelled, getting their attention. So they both stopped to look at me. "You're here. I just wanted to come and drop off these presents." Dean said. "Dean. What are you doing? I have already told you, you can let go of whatever guilt you are holding on to. I'm rid of Marilyn and Jack and I'm sort of independent now. You don't need to keep trying to make amends for not being there when I was a kid. Just leave it. We're even." I said, turning around and walking out of the house again.

The twins followed me and I walked through the woods behind their house to the lake that was behind their house and I sat on the bank of it.

Nathan and Tristan soon appeared next to me but neither of them said anything.

Tristan was the first one to lean over and make me look at him and he started kissing me.

This was definitely the best distraction.
