The Greatest by Sia ~To be honest, I don't know by but I heard this song while writing the chapter, which is weird because this the type of song that helps me in PE, not writing. But hey! It's good though,👌

*Several Weeks Later*

"Nora! Get up before I call one of your brother here to pick your lazy ass off the bed!" I hear Angel scream, while taking the sheets off my face, so I had no choice but to look up and see her frowning down at me.

"No mommy, now please kindly fuck off before I call my dear Ryan here to fuck with you. Now please kindly excuse me," I say tiredly while rolling the covers back on my face.

"Nora! Get your lazy butt of the bed before I actually call Ryan here," she threatened me.

Can you make her shut up please! June pouts. People trying to get some rest here!

Wow, why don't I say something like that before? I say sarcastically, but she ignores me.

Before I know it, the sheets are tossed away and the annoying-ass sunshine comes raining in on my parade. I swear some bright cheerful words before someone roughly pick me up, and tosses me against their hard-ass chest.

"Brûle en enfer--" I open my eyes to see Ryan, flashing his usual warm smile, dressed in jeans and a tight shirt, holding me bridal style against his body. His hair was wet from his shower, so when the water drops fell on my face I swore even louder.

"Well, good afternoon to you too, Nora," I see him smile, as I rub my eyes lazily, trying to adjust my eyes to the sunshine, while one of my arm remained loosely hung around his neck.

11:59 pm flashed on the screen of my teddy bear alarm clock, making me rub my eyes again, but more tiredly. "Can you manage to please drop me by the washroom without making me fall, Ryan?"

"And why would I do that? What type of payment do I get in return?" He looks down at me. He looked young but his height was extremely tall, like my dad (his Beta Henry, told me) and my other 2 brothers. They were mostly around 6'5's and their mates 5'6's and then here's me just at 5'2. I had to wear heels trying to be next to their chins for crying out loud!

"I'll make stirred fry for you at dinner just how you like it." I said innocently.

"And...?" He asks casually, arching an eyebrow at me, like he was wanting more.

I sigh, and cup his cheeks with my warm hands before bring my lips down on his cheeks, kissing them loudly. When I'm done I look at him again innocently, and I hear a scowl from behind us. He turns us both around to see Angel, dressed in a baby pink sweater and black tights with her brown hair flying down in loose bouncy curls, looking at him with the death glare.

"Nora's your sister and that why I'm ignoring it this time but if you do with anyone else, Ill personally murder you by ripping you apart with my bare arms, before you can get an opportunity to cheat on me." She threatened before she left and I hear Ryan gulp, making my laugh.

"Ryan! Washroom now!" I whine, tugging on his shoulder before he actually taking me to the washroom door and stops.

I was going to shut the door when Ryan grasped my wrist. I look up at him and his expression darkened. "That never happened, you hear me?"

I nod seriously but after he left shutting the bedroom door on his way out, I burst out laughing as I shut the door to the washroom.

I start to do my usual routine by first stripping and taking a hot shower, then I tie the big fluffy towel around me and lastly brush my teeth and finish off with my hair. I decide to twist my flat hair into a messy bun and tie it down with a black hair tie.

I walk out the washroom, to my closet and grab out a fresh pair of jeans with a loose mint colour top that had a small round neck. I then wear my favourite necklace that was gifted to me by Xavier on my 16th birthday. It was silver looking -not actual Silver- crescent moon with another circle inside the crescent saying the quote "she is too fond of books and it has turned her brain", by Louisa May Alcott.

He said it was gift for me on my 16th by my mom for when I find my Mate. Unfortunately for me, it's nearly been a year and I'm about to turn 17 in a couple of months without any luck of finding my Mate.

When I inquired about the necklace, he said he found it when he was getting the attic cleaned the summer before.

I threw on a leather jacket over with a loosely knitted creamy beige colour scarf tied around my neck with simple black vans. I tuck the necklace gently in under my shirt, hoping not to lose it because it was just as valuable as my life to me.

Grabbing my phone, I head down the spiral of stairs and hallway to the kitchen to see Ryan and Angel sitting on some red bar stools by the bar, three steps down into the big round parlor we had as one of many living room, talking in low voices as Ryan drank a chocolate milkshake.

I look over to my right to see Mia cooking some eggs on the stoves tops with Zayn, in a blood red shirt and jeans, holding her waist and whispering soft words into her ear making her blush every now and then.

I look over a few steps away from Mia and Zayn, to see my brother Xavier, sweetly kissing Christina, in a knee high navy blue dress with black pencil heels, in a corner.

I sigh and take a seat on the floating island and start to text my friend, Lia.

What's up Nor?

Oh nothing, Lia. Just the usual, seeing my bros enjoying time with their mates first thing in the morning...

Yikes, u poor thing...

Anyway, how's ur life going?

I'm great but just bored. Wanna go to the java for some coffee? I'll call Jordan as well,

(Jordan was Zayn's Beta and also Zayn's childhood friend and Lia's current boyfriend )

Sure, I could use sometime away from this sick love...

Think positive Nor, u might find ur Mate even!

Really? U know my Mates not even here in this pack and I can't step outside the boundaries without my troll brothers finding out

Listen we can always ask Jordan to---

I exit the chat, not wanting to hear or read her usual preach about fighting for yourself and your personal freedom.

"Nora! When did you get here?" Mia asked abruptly, clearly astonished by my presence. She was dressed in a thin maroon baseball shirt with high waist jeans. Her shirt quoted, 'AC DC Back in Black.'

"Not too long ago," I answer briefly. She passes a plate with scrambled eggs and some chopped up strawberries with a tall glass of orange juice on the side. Ive grown used to being dismissed.

"Thanks", I mutter, turning my phone over, ignoring it for a while.

"What's up little sis?" Zayn asks while ruffling my hair with his hand.

"Stop!" I scream, trying to push his hand away when my glass of orange juice falls over the table, directly onto my lap. "Merde."

Luckily, the glass shards didn't cut my thigh because of jeans or else he was going to get it from me.

"Who did what now?" Christina asked, pushing Xavier off, who didn't know a thing until Christina said so and started to walk over to me.

Ryan and Xavier rush toward me, examining the scene before trying to help, but I brush them off by saying, "It's alright, I'll just change."

They glare at Zayn while he innocently whistles to himself looking away but when I walk right pass him, I kick him from behind, just below his knee. He tumbles down to the ground, cussing, while the others laugh, so I escape and run out the room.

Wow, you're so savage, June says with a hint of sarcasm.

I run upstairs to change into a short mint dress that went to my knees with net leggings and threw over a loose grey cardigan. I wore my vans with simple hoops and decide to leave my long hair open. I was about to leave out the front door, when I remembered that I left my phone in the kitchen.

I walk into the kitchen, and see everyone seated around the floating island in the middle of the kitchen on high chocolate brown bar stools. They all turn to look at me as I grab my phone from the behind the fruit bowl.

I was to leave when I hear Xavier call from behind. "Nora!"

"Yes Xavier?" I hum softly as I turn to face him, dressed in a grey V-shaped neck shirt with dark jeans. He was standing and so was Ryan and Zayn while the girls remained seated.

"Where are you going?" He asked in a dangerously low tone, glazing down at my outfit.

"Im going to the Java to have coffee with Lia and I know I can't step outside the boundaries, so I wont even try," I say in orderly manner, shaking my head.

"Fine, but I want you home by 3:00 o'clock sharp today," he says using his Alpha tone on me.

"Alright, but can I ask why?" I question him curiously, ignoring the fact he had used his Alpha tone on me. I should've known better to ask, or even argue over all the years of knowing him and his compulsion of wanting to be heard and taken seriously.

"Because some Alphas are coming for a meeting," Zayn says lightly. I tilt my head to the side as if I were thinking and that's when Zayn adds. "We want you home because Alpha Damon of the RedBlood Pack and his representatives are coming for the meeting, as well."

My eyes widen as I'm left speechless. Alpha Damon was meant to be the most coldest, cruelest and bitter Alpha alive. Single un-mated and un-marked females were always pushed away from his sight, just to preserve their virtues because there's no guarantee of what he wants and when he wants it.

Their Pack was ranked the number one Pack in the North America by the most strength, flawless battle tactics and largest population and land masses ever, with us ranked below them, at number 2.

After our parents death to manage the land our father's Beta, Bega Henry had to divide it into three sections. One for each of my 3 brothers. Me being the youngest and being unable to even talk at the time, I wasn't ever given any but Henry made it very, very clear, I'd be given equal status as one and equal land mass if I wanted so in the near future. I never even asked.

My parent's had died in a tragic rogue attack when I was barely a couple of days old; leaving me, 1 year Zayn and Ryan (they're twins) and 2 year old Xavier, to manage it all.

Some say that the attack on our Pack was due to the RedBlood Pack and their greed of land while others say it was just some rogues. I believe somewhat that the RedBlood Pack had something to do with the attack, because they've had their greedy little eyes on our land for centuries -history spoken its presence- but I just never claimed it out loud I believed them.

For us, we were raised by our father's Beta, Henry and his Mate Suzy until he died of an old heart when I was 13 and his Mate the year after of a broken heart.

Because of our large masses, each brother ruled over a certain amount, by different names but they were linked tightly together and ruled by the total name; The SilverRose Pack, which usually Xavier managed.

I know what you're thinking, SilverRose, but wolfs can't held silver and so on. Our ancestors named it The SilverRose Pack because many years ago, when the enemy was about to attack our Pack for their land and females, they managed to survive due to actual silver roses that bloomed around their land's border.

It killed the enemy, keeping the Pack safe but as years when on, the roses writhed away due to pollution.

Luckily, they gained power and land over time, so they didn't need the help of the roses but they named the Pack The SilverRose Pack in the honor of those very roses.

Zayn ruled over the Amour Pack which was on the Western and half of the Northern side while Ryan looked after the other half of the Northern and Eastern side, that were closer up to the Canadian borders by the name of The Ange pack.

Xavier ruled over the entire Southern side by the name of The Étoile Pack. All the names were French because our dad's side was mostly French while our mother's was Roman.

They all had separate Betas, Gammas, Deltas, and their own Warriors which I barely knew myself. I knew the Betas, Gammas and Deltas but not all the Warriors, only the closest ones.

"Why-?" I start, but Ryan ends off for me.

"Nora, we're just worried about you. You're young, un-marked and un-mated, and you don't even have a Mate yet. We don't want to take chances with him either, so it's just a precaution. You know, he's cold and heartless and we don't want you to be hurt. We just want you home, so we can keep you save from him and his entire Pack." His voice sounded stressed and off to the edge, as much as he face showed.

Angel gets up, hopping of her stool and makes her way over, "Go and enjoy but be back soon." She says softly while drawing me into hug before ushering me out the front door. I walk out with the feeling of heavy eyes, sitting hard on me.

The current time was 12:30, so that meant I had 2 and a half hours left before my parent's murders step foot on my parent's land. The same land they were killed for.

.....

Alpha Damon's POV;

"Yes, I'm sure I'm coming Erick," I say for the third time, trying not to lose my anger again but in the end I snap. "Come or not, it's your FUCKING CHOICE, so make up your stupid mind!"

I disconnect the phone, as Kaden raises an eyebrow. "Friend problems?" he asks, gripping the steering wheel harder than before.

We were off to the meeting in the The SilverRose Pack which happens to be about another 2 hours' drive away, or maybe 4 due to Kaden's slow ass driving.

"Maybe," I grumble. "Can you drive any slower seriously? You drive slower than my grandma."

"But I though you said that your grandma died in a hole and that you never knew her?" He diverted his eyes to me widely.

"Yeah, she did. But she would've still drove faster than you," I say back in a harsher tone.

"Yeah sure she would've," he grunts. "I can already spot her old rickety scooter speeding by us right now."

"Shut the hell up," I say, while rubbing my fingers against my temple. I had a killer headache which was weird because I hadn't had any hard liquor for awhile.

"Get some rest brother," Kaden slaps my thigh with one hand, "You have an image to keep up; you know being cold, savage, heartless etc."

I slap his hand away, and continue to rub my temple.

Please be worth this damn trip, I mumble.
