Rosalyn
It was everything I thought it would be.
I confess, I was nervous about it. When I decided to take my (doomed) relationship with John to the next step, I did so with a few reservations and after a lot of thought.
Of course, I wanted to save myself for my mate. I'm a romantic deep down. But the reality of it was there's no one I rather take this step with. Sure, I only think that cause I haven't met my elusive mate, I know it. But my point is: he's not here.
And not only that, he's not coming any time soon! The reality of it all was: my brother will ascend. I don't like this situation, I don't agree with it, but it is what it is!
If the Goddess wanted me to be Alpha, she would give me a dream about him! At least then, I'd hope. But no, I'm forced to watch my brother goes through it. It's not easy for me, not at all!
But again, that is the reality that I'm in. So you know what, fuck it! Like my aunt Daph once said: do it with someone who makes you feel safe and when you want to. So I did. And it was wonderful, it was everything I dreamed of!
He was so respectful, so honorable, so careful with me and it was his first time too. Probably a lot of guys would go wham and bam! But not him, he made sure I enjoyed it. He respected my body. There's nothing more I could've asked.
Which brings me to now: I have 2 rogues in front of me, John is finishing his shift into wolf and I didn't even have time to put my shirt on. Thank Goddess I was already in underwear and bra.
The rogues snarled at us. They know we're werewolves. I mean John was obvious, but they know about me too since the scent is unmistakable.
They barked at us. John is already salivating he was so defensive of me.
One of the wolves darts in my direction but John intercepts it. John's wolf was almost rabid. He bit the wolf and harmed its body a little. It got angry, so it attacked him with its paws.
I was wincing for John when a paw hit his fur. But that only makes him more angry. He opened his mouth and bared his teeth at it. It did the same to him.
When it barked at John, he attacked it with everything he got. He stuck its canines deep in the wolf it cried. John didn't stop biting till the rogue was dead beneath him.
The second wolf snarled loudly. It lunged at me, but John comes and bites it in the back side, making it wince. John's wolf pulled the rogue away from me with its mouth.
The rogue defended itself with its paws and knocked John down. He winced. So did I at the scene.
The rogue attacked John, but by the time he reached him, 2 warriors knocked him out of the way. They took turns biting it, so it didn't stand a chance. Not against 2 pack warriors.
As I watched it happening, John's wolf came to my side, looking a little defeated, its mouth was still full of the first one's blood. I took this time to get dressed as fast as I could. As the danger was eliminated, John shifted back into human.
When I looked at his face, he looked worried as if he had failed me. But I made sure he looked at me when I said:
"It's okay. You did well. We're safe!" - I kissed him in the cheek and told him to get dressed.
I wanted to keep our relationship a secret and have managed it for so long.
But now there's no escaping the Alpha and his rage. I needed to brace for impact.
Later, at the pack house, Denise barged into dad's office. He's there with uncle Nate and both get startled by her intrusion.
"Denise, a knock is courtesy!" - Dad exclaimed at her, still a little shaken.
"There have been 2 rogues in our territory!" - She shouted. She looked upset, though still calm and collected.
"Thank you for the information, Delta. Were they dealt with?" - Dad asked her, not missing a beat. Rogues in our territory are not exactly breaking news. That's why we have patrols around the clock.
"There's more. Your daughter was at the site with Nate's son!" - She spoke and dad jumped from his seat. Uncle Nate's face is deeply worried.
"Oh my Goddess! Are they okay?!" - Dad rushed to ask her. - "Where are they?"
"They're both all right, John killed the first one and the warriors on patrol killed the second." - She replied, calmly.
"Where's my son?!" - Uncle Nate asked, loud and distraught.
"He's right outside, he only has a mild bruise on him. He's fine. She was unharmed!" - She informed, calm but serious. Like always.
"Oh my Goddess Denise, way to scare the life out of me! Send her in." - Dad sighed in relief.
"There's more!" - Denise said as she did not miss a beat.
Uncle Nate and dad held their breaths. They looked stunned.
"What could there possibly..." - Dad said but got interrupted.
"There's evidence they engaged in sexual activity." - She informed them. Dad's mouth was agape. Uncle Nate gasped. They were both very shocked.
"What?!" - Dad shouted and moved to open the door. - "Rosalyn Ford Huntington!" - Dad yelled at me.
Uncle Nate rushed to hug his son. He asked him if he was really okay. He answered that he was, just shook by the whole situation. He barely had a scratch, fortunately.
"Are you okay?" - Dad asked me, worriedly.
"Yes dad, I wasn't harmed in any way, John protected me. He fought off both the rogues." - I explained as I looked down. I couldn't face him I was so ashamed of the whole situation.
"What were you thinking?! Did he..." - Dad trailed of but we all got his meaning.
"Oh my Goddess! Are you seriously suggesting what I think you're suggesting?!" - Uncle Nate was livid. He moved away from his son and got into dad's face, who didn't react.
"No dad, he didn't force me into anything, if that's what you're asking..." - I told him, sheepishly.
John and I were already in tears.
"It was my idea, I love him!" - I admitted, sobbing.
"And I love her!" - John spoke, his voice was hoarse. He sobs quietly. Uncle Nate held him.
"What?! He's your cousin! He can't be your mate! He's too young!" - Dad shouted at me.
"I know, dad. I don't care. I love him!" - I insisted. There wasn't anything else I could say.
"I can't believe this!" - Dad yelled. He was possessed.
"I could've expected this from Emmett maybe, but not you!" - He sounded so disappointed. I cried harder.
"Dad, I know Emmett's gonna ascend. I'm not an idiot!" - I told him. I was incredibly upset. By now, there was no point in holding back.
"What?! Why do you say this?" - He replied. Like he didn't know.
"Because he already has a fucking mate waiting for him in a month! If I were to find mine, I would already be dreaming about him!" - I yelled, so pissed off.
"Why don't we all calm down? This is just a temporary situation. She'll be mated in 8 months! She'll barely remember my son exists!" - Uncle Nate said it and I saw how it hurt John.
I resisted the urge to hold him, but it was difficult.
"I know Nate, but that's not the problem. What if she falls pregnant?" - Dad questioned, worriedly.
"Dad, I'm not an idiot! I'm on the pill. And he used a condom." - I explained, deeply embarrassed.
"Wait, you're on the pill? Where would you even find..." - Dad yelled but then he realized it. John was surprised too at this information.
"Great! Now even Daphne is in on it!" - Dad spoke as he looked pissed.
"Aunt Daphne doesn't know anything. I just asked her for it cause she helps me. And she doesn't judge me!" - I spat at him.
"Dan, calm down. This doesn't need to be a big deal. They're just kids!" - Uncle Nate tried to defuse the situation. He was surprisingly calm about it, all things considered.
"It's easy for you to say! Your son doesn't need to face the consequences of this." - Dad rebuked.
"What consequences? Didn't she just say she was safe?" - He retorted, hands in the air, baffled.
"Have you known about this, Nate?" - Dad looked at him, suspiciously. He did seemed very cool about it. But then again, he's the father of the boy. Different standards. Damn patriarchy!
"You mean if I knew my unmated son and niece were having sex? No, I did not. But that they had a crush on each other, of course I knew!" - He explained, which shocked ALL of us present.
"Wait, you knew?!" - John rose up.
"Of course, I knew. I'm the Beta of the pack, I know everything!" - He shouted at him.
"Why do you think the warriors were patrolling the area at that time?" - He surprised every single one of us. Dad was gobsmacked. So was aunt Denise, who was quietly listening to all unfold.
"And you didn't say anything?!" - Dad asked him. He was so shocked.
"It wasn't my place to say anything! I thought they just had a crush. I thought it was innocent. I didn't know they'd be dumb enough to have sex!" - He yelled, defensively.
"We're not dumb! We love each other. It wasn't a mistake!" - John defended us.
"I'm sorry, son. I know you're not dumb." - He apologized, looking at him.
"I just can't believe you never told me this!" - Dad sits down. He looked defeated.
"I can't believe you planned patrols around your son's sexcapades! How come I never knew about it? And I'm Delta!" - Aunt Denise interjected. She did not look pleased.
"First of all, I didn't plan patrol on sex anything! I planned patrols to keep an eye out from a far, so that in case this happened, they'd be protected. Second, you forget yourself sister, I'm the Beta of the pack! I'm the protector of the entire territory. All the warriors, including you, answer to ME! - Uncle Nate looked so angry his eyes were pitch black.
"Delta, thank you for the information, you're dismissed!" - Dad stated, calmly. She left us, begrudgingly.
"I just can't believe you knew about it and never said anything to me!" - John gasped.
"Son, I'm a 38 years old Beta. I know everything that happens in our territory. I knew who you're with, I knew the places, I knew when you go, all the times you spent at the falls, I know everything! The only thing I didn't know was..." - He trailed off.
"Plus, I can smell her scent on you every time you got home when I was. You're not as good as you think of washing it clean!" - He smirked. - "I just never said anything cause I've waited for you to tell me!" - He spoke in a serious tone.
Aunt Daphne arrives at the pack house, she put her stuff down and went to hold her son.
"Puppy, are you okay? You said you were attacked by rogues?" - She looked concerned as she rushed to hold him.
"We were, mom. But it's fine. They're dead. And now uncle Dan wants to kill me!" - He snickered, trying for a smile but failing.
"Did you give your niece birth control pills?" - Dad asked her.
"Yes, I did. Would you rather she wasn't on it? Would you rather leave it up to chance?" - She rebuked, looking pissed off.
"I'd rather know about it." - Dad replied, looking mad at aunt Daphne.
"It's not my place to tell! My job is to give information and the proper medication so that they make informed decisions!" - She lectured him. She was not backing down.
"They who? Teenagers?!" - Dad scoffed.
"Yes, Daniel, teenagers. Did you forget you were one too? You're such a hypocrite! The only reason you didn't have an unmated pregnancy is because Lauren was smart!" - She spat at him.
"Daphne!" - Uncle Nate interjected.
"Nate, don't!" - She raised a finger shushing him. - "Yes, they did something they're not supposed to. I know. I don't agree with it either. And I certainly didn't know for whom she needed the pills, but I'm a doctor. My job is to take care of people's health. Not judge their decisions. And shame on you for making HER feel ashamed! They were attacked today! You should be taking care of your children, not berate them! Especially not today!" - She was livid. She wasn't having it. At all! Dad didn't react.
"Come on son, we're going home! I have never been so embarrassed of you in my life, Daniel!" - Aunt Daphne barked at him.
"Nate, NOW!" - She commanded. He stood up and left with his son and mate.
I long admired aunt Daphne, for one is not easy giving up to raise your new born to attend med school. But she was a formidable woman! And the only person to call on my dad like that. Not even aunt Denise was brave enough. And that's saying something!
"Rosalyn, you may go to your room. You are grounded until I say otherwise." - Dad informed me, looking disappointed.
Daddy was not very far observing everything. Naturally, there were already too many cooks in the kitchen, so he stayed silent. He just gave me the biggest hug he could possibly have given me. I cried in his arms. I unraveled completely. Never could I have thought my first sexual experience would result in any of this! And I couldn't stop crying. Even Emmett hugged me at some point.
