Howling at the Moon (Sample)

I watched as she kissed him back.

I watched as that disgusting pig touched Kiyiya where only my hands had roamed not even twenty-four hours ago.

I wanted to stay, I wanted to kill him for hurting my sister and taking Kiyiya from me. I growled as I slammed the door and sprinted for the pack house. As I barged through the door I stopped in my tracks at the sight of my sister in tears. Tyrina? Hey its over. He will never hurt you again. I said kneeling by her side as she sobbed into a couch pillow. ItIIt isntnt that. She sobbed. I frowned as I rubbed her back. What is it then? I asked in what I hoped was a soothing voice. Ty looked up at me and inhaled a jagged breath.

HHeHes going tto do it tto Kiyiya. She whispered.

Mascara dragged black streaks from my sisters beautiful blue eyes.

I looked from her face and studied the carpet like it was the most interesting thing in the world.

I didnt know how I would cope if he did that to her. The way she kissed him back, like she didnt give a second thought to how he raped her best friend. Like she didnt even think about me anymore. She didnt need me, she has he mate, Phelan.

Channing?

My head snapped up to notice Tyrina staring at me expectantly. Do you think that Phelan loves her? she asked, her eyes glistening with old tears and curiosity.

I shrugged. I dont know, all I know is shes a big girl and can handle herself. I whispered, staring at the darkening sky but she shook her head as if in disappointment. No Channing, does Phelan love her as much as you do? she asked, her eyebrows pulling into a frown.

I felt my face go slack and I shook my head.

How did you know? I asked, hopeful that it wasnt obvious to everyone.

Relax, Im your sister and I really dont think anyone else knows. She answered, rubbing my back comfortingly and I let out a breath in relief. Why? Are you embarrassed that you fell for your beta? she demanded exasperatedly, but I shook my head quickly. I was in love with that woman so much. It was hard not to fall for her mega-watt smile and that perfect bouncing personality.

No no no no, of course not. I crave for the world to know that I wish to wake beside her and I wish to sleep with her in my arms. I crave for the world to know that I need her. I revealed as I felt a rogue tear slip down my cheek. I love her Ty. I confessed as my sister wrapped me in her embrace.

Fate is too fast for me to run from.

I stood and turned quickly. How long have you been standing there? I asked her as she stood, soaking wet and crying in the doorway of the pack house. Since Tyrina said she knew about us. She murmured.

Tyrina left the room tiptoeing. Im going to busy myself over not here. She said and left me and Kiyiya alone.

I couldnt handle being around her right now. Her mate had been close to challenging me just minutes ago and now here she was.

I pushed past her and shouted to Tyrina; Im going to my house Tyrina! and a faint Have fun. was the reply.

My house was the only house that didnt have neighbours within a close distance and it was a bit of a walk as I trudged through the rain and up the hill. Half way there she pulled me backwards.

CHANNING?! she yelled. Arent you even going to talk to me? What did I do? she asked, yelling. What came next almost appalled me as I corrected her. Im your ALPHA! Youre just a Beta. DONT FORGET WHO YOUR TALKING TO MISS LENNYION! I yelled right back at her.
