Karen's POV

I am so ready to fight my brother. I'm really ready to beat his ass right now. My wolf is itching to be let loose but I am trying very hard not to let her come out. Colton rubs my hand at times but I don't want his touch, I want my mate's.

I smile at him and he kisses the top of my head. I look at Rachel and she stares at me.

I smirk at her and she scowls at me. She got up and said she was gonna go dance and pulled Austin with her.

They were dancing and soon Roxanne and Taylor joined them.

Colton looked down at me and asked, "What's wrong?"

"Nothing."

"Karen, I know when something's bothering you." He replied looking at me.

"It's nothing Colton, promise."

"You'll tell me if something's wrong right?"

"Of course." I told him smiling.

He smiled and I kissed him hard. I tangled my fingers in his hair and he growled softly. We pulled apart when the door slammed and Rachel was gone.

"Where did Rachel go?" Colton asked.

"I don't know, she just stormed out." Austin replied. "I'm gonna go look for her."

"No, it's okay, I'll go do it." I replied getting up.

I ran out of the diner and shifted into my wolf. My wolf was black with white spots. I followed Rachel's scent and I found her in her wolf form laying on the ground. Her wolf was a dark brown color and her eyes were a green color.

I walked closer and she whined. She saw me and backed away. I got closer to her and nuzzled her neck. She purred and I shifted back into a human. I grabbed some clothes from behind a tree and put it on. It was running shorts and a sports bra.

"Rachel, I'm gonna need you shift back into a human. I have clothes for you."

She shifted back and covered herself. I handed her running shorts and a sports bra and she put it on.

"Why did you leave?" I asked softly.

"You guys were making out." She replied, her voice cracking.

"And Austin was touching you." I replied.

She looked down and I lifted her head gently. "Stop fighting it Rachel. It feels like you're rejecting me."

"I'm not rejecting you." She replied.

"Show me." I told her.

She crushed her lips to mine and I moaned tangling my fingers in her hair. She slipped her tongue in my mouth and I rubbed my tongue against hers. She moaned and started to kiss my neck. I moaned when I felt her sucking on my neck.

She kissed up to my lips and I bit her bottom lip softly. She moaned and my arms wrapped around her waist. She tangled her fingers in my hair and sucked on my bottom lip. My knees were starting to get weak and she pulled away pressing her forehead to mine.

"Better than Colton's kiss?" She asked breathing hard.

"Better than Austin's kiss?" I asked back.

"I asked you first." She replied smiling and kissing me softer this time.

"Mhm. Way better." I told her smiling.

"Same here." She giggled and I kissed her cheek.

"What now?" She asked.

"I don't know. I guess tell our families." I replied.

"No!" She said pushing me away.

I growled. "Why not?"

"We're girls. Our families won't accept it." She pointed out.

I growled again and Rachel put her hand on my arm. "Let's just not tell them."

"Why, because we're girls? How long do you wanna hide this Rachel? Until our families think that Austin is your mate or that Colton's mine? Or they'll send us away to find our mate because they'll think we haven't found each other? How long Rachel? Tell me." I told her sternly.

She looked down and I continued. "I have no shame in us being together but you do. You're ashamed of me because we don't fit society's vision as a couple. Well let me tell you something, fuck what society and our families say about this. I want to be able to hold my mate, kiss my mate, hug my mate without me feeling like someone is watching us. I don't want to hide us, Rachel. I want to show you around, I want to be with you."

"And I want to be with you too. Just give me time to adapt to this."

"Okay, fine." I replied.

She kissed me and I kissed back harder. She pulled away and said, "They're probably waiting on us."

"I don't fucking care." I replied kissing her again.

"Come on Karen." Rachel said giggling pulling away.

"Ugh, fine." I pulled away and we started walking back to the pack house.

Our families were waiting on us and Austin ran to give Rachel a hug. I growled and Austin looked at me weird and I said, "No hug for your older sister?"

"Older? Pssh only by like thirty minutes." He told me. "Are you okay?" He asked Rachel.

"Yeah, I'm sorry, my wolf wanted to be let out all night until she finally took over." I listened to Rachel talk to Austin and I went in the kitchen to get something to drink and eat since I didn't eat at the diner.

"You do realize you have a hickey on your neck, right?" Roxanne told me walking in.

I smiled and put my hair to the side to cover it.

"There, gone!" I replied smiling.

Roxanne laughed and told me that her and Taylor were going out of town.

"Really? Where?" I asked her taking a bite out of my chicken.

"We agreed on Vancouver." She told me.

"Vancouver?"

"Yeah. Why?"

"Roxy, I think you guys would be better off staying on our territory. Our rival pack, Blue Moon, Vancouver is in their territory."

"We aren't there to get in trouble, we're just gonna be there relaxing."

"It doesn't matter. As future co alpha of the pack, I forbid you to go to Vancouver."

"Karen, what the fuck? I want to spend time with my mate somewhere else!"

"Roxanne, what aren't you getting? I'm saving you from getting captured and killed. And you know the punishment for going against alpha's orders." I told her sternly.

She growled out and Taylor came in hugging her and kissing her forehead.

"Don't go." I said in my alpha voice.

He bowed his head and Roxanne started crying. "You ruin everything for me Karen!"

"Come on Roxanne. We can find another place, I swear." Taylor told her.

I grabbed my food and walked to my dad's office. He was doing some paperwork and he looked up at me.

"How's Roxanne doing?"

"How did you know?"

"Your mom mind linked me. I'm proud of you for stepping up to the alpha role." He said.

"Does that mean I can be full blown alpha?" I asked.

"Maybe. I'm not making any promises though. "

I cheered and hugged my dad. "Thank you dad, so much."

I grabbed my food and headed to my room. Rachel was sitting on the floor with her headphones in and was drumming her fingers. I sat on my bed and ate my food and watched her.

"Austin said he needed to talk to you." She told me.

"Well, Austin can wait." I replied watching her.

Austin walked in my room and said, "Karen, we promised to never use the alpha thing on anyone."

"I wasn't going to let my best friend walk into enemy territory."

"Well, you could've called them and tell them they were coming and we're not planning anything."

"You go do that then."

"I will."

He stormed out and I saw Rachel closing the door. She walked over to me and kissed my cheek.

I smiled and I got up to take a shower. I got out dressed in my tank top and volleyball shorts and climbed in my bed. Rachel walked in wearing a big shirt and basketball shorts. She got in my bed and curled up to me.

"Night Karen."

"Goodnight Rachel."
