Golden Lycan

Chapter 3

Chapter 3

My oldest brother is the very image of our father, from the 6ft 7in height down to the dimple in both of his cheeks, which to be fair all of us have our father’s dimples. His caramel-colored skin glistened with sweat as if he had just finished a workout. He was thick with muscle like my father with shoulders that spanned a door way, no one could doubt his power. Everything about him screamed our father except his eyes, he has mothers’ hazel green eyes, his best feature in my opinion. Micah exuded confidence and power no one would doubt that he was a King in the making. Surprisingly enough his mate and my best friend was only about 5ft 5in tall, small by Lycan standards but she was born a wolf and only got her Lycan once she was mated to my twin brother. Issa may be small in stature but she held the power to bring her giant Lycan husband to his knees with a single look.

As he approaches us a smile curves his lips as he announces in his loudest voice, “So I heard you ran into your fated mate today and could not form a proper sentence to introduce yourself to the man.” This was followed by laughter and then the sound of running feet as our two younger brothers came storming down the hallway from the home gym for our private use on these floors. Obviously the three of them had been working out together. There was only one way for my brother to already have this information.

I turned to glare at my traitor of a best friend. She is the only source he could have gotten that information and I cannot believe she told him what happened. Giving me a look riddle with guilt she squeaks out an “I am SOOO sorry, I had to tell him, he is my husband and mate. Sorry Sis.” Then she turns her fiercest glare to her husband and my brother and says “you just couldn’t keep your big mouth shut, huh? I know never to tell you another single thing, you are in the dog house tonight!”

“Come on Babe, this was too good to hold onto. Don’t hold it against me, you know how she was when we first found out we were mates.” He pleaded to his wife. Hearing this I had to step in and defend myself, “what the hell are you talking about jerk, I was happy and supportive, it was those two bums that picked on you. And as for you best friend, I will have retribution since you just could help but run and tell your mate my business…” Seeing the devilish look on my face, Issa blushes as she knows I know all of her secrets but I’m not out to cut deep. I just want to cause a little squirming. “Oh, brother dear, did our little Issa also mention that she was fairly drooling over the site of my mate? I believe her exact words were “Well hot damn he could make a nun turn to a life of crime and sin, He is beyond HOT!” isn’t that right Issa?”

My brother has never been a jealous man, he has no reason to be since he himself is a verifiable hunk of a man. Women have been throwing themselves at him since he was a pre-teen. But when it came to his mate, he wanted Issa to only have eyes for him. So needless to say, my little snitch of a best friend had some explaining to do. After hearing what was said my twin folded his arms across his massive chest and looked at his mate saying “Oh really? Is that so, the new stranger was Hot huh?” Instantly turning on me Issa gives me a look of utter disbelief that I had ratted her out. “Come on Vivyan, you know how he gets, he- “She never got to finish her sentence as my brother scooped her up and threw her over his shoulder and was already striding towards the other end of the floor where their suite of room is located. Sporting a smile, I am patting myself on the back until I get a mind link from Issa, “We are not even. Laugh now but you still have to face your mate tonight at the mixer… what are you going to say once you are face to face?? Not laughing now, are we?” Damn it, I think to myself, she is right.

They may be gone from the hallway but I still have 2 remaining trouble makers to deal with, both of whom are wearing the silliest smirks on their faces. I can just hear the gears turn in their little heads ready to pepper me with jokes and jabs about finding my mate and making a complete i***t of myself. “So, the college professor couldn’t find the words to speak huh? Well, I never thought I would live to see the day, when my big sister would be silenced by anyone. I cannot wait to meet this man; he must be one of the Gods come down from Mt. Olympus. Touched by the moon goddess herself and chosen just for you to gain that kind of reaction.” I could tell Vincent was loving every moment of this because he continued to torment and I just stood there and let him say his peace, “This mythical creature of a man holds the power to stop the fastest tongue in the kingdom. We have all meet the rath that you can come up with and yet one look from you fated mate and NOTHING!! Oh, this is too good.” That was enough I let him have his fun and if I did not stop them now, they would think this could continue endlessly.

Holding up a hand for silence, I look at both of my younger brother’s and say, “Are you quite finished? I’m sure I can come up with some secret you both would like to keep from daddy. Should we all go in to see him or do you wish to continue messing with me?” Hearing this the laughter and smiles quickly vanish from my little brothers faces. They are so easy, I would never snitch on either of them, but they don’t have to know that just yet.

I never got to hear what they may have responded next as the King himself was standing in the doorway to his office. Just behind him were is beta, gamma and both of my grandparents. “And what pray tell is all this ruckus happening in my hallway while I am trying to have a meeting?” My father eyes all of us. “Don’t you boys have another hour of training to complete?” this is said by my grandmother who is sitting on the couch located closest to the door. Upon hearing her questions both Vincent and Liam turn on their heels to head back to the Gym.

As the boys are walking away, I hear my grandfather’s voice ring out, “Come on in Vivyan, we were just discussing you.” “Damn it, what now?” is all I can think to myself.
