I pushed him back and locked him away, for now at least. I held back the urge to climb up to Briar's window and comfort her and just kiss her all night, but I knew that wasn't an option.
When we got back to the pack house, Levi grabbed my hand, stopping me in my tracks.
"What is it, Buddy?" I asked him, watching his actions.
"How do you know if someone belongs with you for the rest of your life?" His question threw me off slightly.
"Well, Bud, normally you find out when you turn seventeen but some people sense it early. Why?"
"No reason." Sighing, he dropped his head and trudged inside. I looked at Flynn and he shrugged.
"Dude," Flynn said as we got inside. "Don't forget, we have the Alpha Beta meeting tomorrow morning."
Groaning I throw my head back. "Shit that means I don't get to see Briar. Damn it, she's going to think I believed her sister."
"You can find her after the meeting. Just go back to school." Flynn shrugged walking up the stairs. I nodded and followed him and split off to my room.
Grabbing my grey dress shirt and a dark blue tie out of my closet, I lay them on my chair for tomorrow.
-How much longer?- Koda whined
-I plan on telling her Friday, okay? Just stay calm- I told him.
-I need her. She's ours, we've known her for about a week and you still haven't marked her!-
-She's different, Koda, and you know that.- He growled at me.
"Okay, where are we really going?" I asked again, once we were safe in the car.
"Taking you to the Alpha Beta meeting like I did with your sister when she turned seventeen." My eyes widened and I began fidgeting with the door handle, trying to get out of the car.
"Dad, no stop! You and I both know about all the crap I'm getting because of my new position!" He locked the doors and pulled out.
"Honey, it's a tradition in our pack for the Alpha to take their child once they turn seventeen to one Alpha Beta meeting. There's no getting out of it." Settling in my seat, I sighed and changed the station.
"Fine, but I'm sitting outside the room with my headphones." I informed him.
Nodding he made a sharp turn up a dirt road. "Alpha's go first so all the Beta's will be out there as well. If anything happens, link me. My consciousness will be open, okay?" I nodded.
He pulled up to a wide one story building that had werewolves everywhere. Some were even shifted in their wolf form and stood by the doors. I got out and followed my dad. The wolves sniff each of us individually. They smelled my dad and they bowed. They smelt me, they bowed lower. Embarrassed, I quickened my pace and stayed close to my dad. I don't know why I get so shocked when I see that happen, they can literally smell it on me.
