I pulled my suitcase out of the airport. "Hah," I breathed a sigh of relief out of the airport, which was suffocating because of the crowd. I glanced around with my eyes. "Okay, where are you, dude? I said. Not long after, a silver sedan stopped in front of me, the car window was open, and Grace was smiling sweetly at me.

"Hey Jane, I'm not late, am I?" She said.

Grace is my best friend; she's the one who picked me up at the airport. "Not really," I answered, putting my suitcase in the car seat. I pushed the car seat back so I could lie down. "You look skinnier dude, are they torturing you over there?" Grace asked as the car pulled away. I just finished training for my apprentice. Good news I was accepted to work at the Gold Group company. One of the biggest companies in my city and I passed the exams including the training they did. "Ahh they have pretty strict rules for interns. I'm so tired," I said.

"Well, at least you're lucky to be accepted to work there. It's the best chance you have in your life. Are your parents back yet?" Grace asked, changing the conversation. I shook my head. "Not yet, but I received a message they will be back in two days. It's good they enjoy quiet time at my grandfather's place, the village there is very peaceful you know. Ahh it's just me and my sister at home, I hope Stefani prepares food for me," I said. Grace nodded her head; she turned on the music. "Okay, it's been two months, I'm sure you really miss your mate huh?." Grace is teasing me

"Hahaha, you're right, I really miss my mate. Almost every night Charlie whines asking me to hurry back here, he's been very protective of me these days. I don't know why. That's why I didn't tell Charlie or Stefani when I was back, I wanted to surprise them." I said. Grace cleared her throat. "Okay. I think Charlie is like that maybe because of that incident, a lot of packs have talked about it, including our pack." said Grace.

I furrowed my brows. "Hey? what that?, oh did I miss an important gossip?" I asked curiously. Grace turned off the music. She smiled faintly at me, making the atmosphere even tenser "Yeah, you missed some boiling and big news. Look, you know Maria right?" she asked. I paused for a moment and felt victorious when I remembered the woman named Maria. "Of course I remember, she threw a volleyball at me on purpose when I was in high school. I heard she's Mate from Brandon, beta in the northern pack, so what’s wrong with her?" I asked curiously.

“She's a crazy bitch, hahaha. You know what?, she got fucked with Brandon cousin. They rented a hotel and did that. Brandon was suspicious beforehand, he put a tracker on Maria's cell phone, and he caught Maria with her cousin at the hotel." Grace told this with enthusiasm.

I immediately changed my sitting position, holding my forehead in disbelief. "That's damn crazy, how is that possible? So what did Brandon do?" I asked. Grace raised an eyebrow. "Of course he brought Maria to the advisory board, and he rejected Maria as his mate," Grace said.

"But it's quite risky right?, rejecting a mate will make Brandon lose his scent, it will make it difficult for him to meet other mate's right?" I still have doubts about this rule. But we werewolves may reject our mate under certain circumstances.

"In that case, Maria didn't actually love Brandon's cousin. You know we're only going to love our mate, especially if that guy has already marked us. But Maria was too tempted and did it just to have fun with Brandon's cousin. I think Maria still hesitated when Brandon marked her, and it made them unable to imprint perfectly. You know Maria really likes to tease some guys before, just for fun," said Grace.

I shook my head in disbelief. "To me it's not about the reason behind them doing that, but how could your mate betray with someone so close to you, even your family. It must have been very tough for Brandon, I applaud him for deciding."

"Hahaha, don't let us go through something like that. Take good care of Charlie even though he's just a regular Gamma member," Grace reminded me. I shrugged nonchalantly. "Oh, I can't possibly get such a thing as betrayal. I really know Charlie has a crush on me, we've been in this relationship for four years you know" I smiled proudly.

****

"See you tonight dude, bye" Grace walked away. I stood on the terrace of the house, stretching for a moment. "Welcome home Jane," I said to myself. I lifted my suitcase this time. "Surprise!! Sis, I'm home. I hope you prepare food so I can eat," I said. I walked to the refrigerator, took a cold soda, and took a sip

"Sis?, where are you?" I called my sister, who did not come out to greet me. I didn't tell Charlie or Stefani that I was coming back today; I wanted to surprise them.

"Stefani? Did you fall asleep?" I shouted again. I looked upstairs from the stairs, but my sister still didn't answer. I rolled my eyes lazily; Stefani is sometimes like this. She will fall asleep and plug her ears with earphones to listen to music. "Oh, you're doing that nasty habit of yours again, huh?" I said, starting up the stairs, down the hall to the right, to my sister's room.

When I almost approached my sister's room, I suddenly heard a woman's voice sighing accompanied by a suppressed moan. "Argh, huh honey," she said. Even though it was faint but I recognized the voice; I was silent in front of my sister's door. Making sure the sound I heard came from inside my room, my sister.

I put my ear to the bedroom door. "Hey sis?, are you watching an adult movie?" I whispered while confirming the voice. Again I heard a heavier sigh. I panicked; there's no way my sister would do that.

My sister differs from me. Until now, she has not found his mate. That's because the scent is not too strong; even the wolf sometimes appears. 'Lora, did you hear that? Looks like Stefani is doing something in there. But this is wrong right?' I asked, waking my wolf. Lora just growled, not caring. Since I hadn't seen Charlie, my wolf in quite a while, Lora became so weak and she slept through the day.

I shook my head couldn't hold myself back anymore; I opened the door to my sister's room. "Hey sis, I warned you not to..." my words stopped. I stared at what was in front of me. I can't believe this; I found my sister, who I respect, and Charlie, my mate fucked. They were on the bed, naked and making love.

"Oh shit," Charlie cursed, glaring at me.
