Bound To Twins

help you

" J- Justin?" I stuttered, my eyes bulging out widely and threatening to pop out of their sockets.

" Why are you here?" Why on earth is he here?

" Won't you invite me to your house Melissa. It's been a while since we saw each other." Justin's nonchalant behaviour was really getting on my nerves.

Didn't he Know that more than inviting him to the house I was worried about his safety? If my mates see him, who knows what terrible fate he would suffer in their hands.

Of Course he didn't Know that. But he would soon find out if he continues to stand at the door with his annoying yet innocent face.

" Leave from here, hurry?" In an attempt to save his ass, I push him away, urging him to leave but he isn't so lucky when Mason's voice booms from behind.

" Who is this man Melissa and what is he doing here?" I can feel the rage behind his words and I don't need anybody to tell me that he is pissed off, most likely, jealous.

He has always been a jealous freak anyways.

I say a rest in peace for Justin before turning to face Mason's scowling face.

" I can explain, Mason. Calm down." I try to dissuade the man but the look on his face tells me that he's far from calming down.

" I asked you a question, Melissa. What is a bloody human doing in our house?" The word human is spelled with so much disgust.

Mason has always hated humans and never did not ever try to conceal it.

I turned to look at Justin who had an offended expression on his face.

With his brows knitted together,I could see the words " what the hell is happening here?" Written all over his face.

I fought the urge to facepalm. Being caught up between the two was not something I wanted to deal with. Not when Mason was looking like he was ready to pounce on Justin and tear him to pieces. Justin on the other hand had that stubborn look on his face.

One look and I could tell that he would not be backing out without an explanation.

The way he was sizing Mason up was truly hilarious.

Mason two was glaring at the Man with hatred. It was like they were holding a glaring contest.

After knowing Justin for some time, I came to Know that he is loyal to those he regards as family.

Seeing Mason here with me, he must be thinking that I am betraying his friend Mark.

Looking at the hopeless situation the two men were putting me, I clicked in annoyance.

I did not want to get in the middle of their little staring contest or even have the desire to stop them.

They can hold their competition to their heart's contend and I won't give a damn about it.

" Go ahead. Kill each other then. Since you won't listen to me, why should I bother? I'll collect the corpse of whoever ends up dying." I spat before walking to the house.

Mason does not bulge with my words but I can see panic clearly written on Justin's face.

Although I said it,I actually did not mean it that way.

If push comes to shove, then Justin will be dead in less than a minute.

Mason is an Alpha wolf and Justin is a mere human. He doesn't stand a chance in front of Justin.

I actually just wanted the two to break it off but Mason being the knucklehead he is, he doesn't know when to stop.

Walking back to the dining table, I take my position before scooping some chicken soup and start eating it leisurely.

" What happened? I smell a human." Theo asks, making me roll my eyes.

" Justin happened." I reply, taking another sip of my chicken soup.

Waking up to prepare breakfast yet someone would rather stare at another man hostily than eat what I prepared.

" Justin? Who is Justin?" Theo inquires. I can feel the curiosity in his words but unlike Mason, I don't sense any jealousy in his words. Or perhaps, he is just good at concealing it.

" We worked with him at the FBI office. He was a colleague." I answer and Theo frowns.

" What is he doing here then? How did he find out you were here? Is it not dangerous to have him know your location?" Theo bombards me with questions making my head hurt.

" I don't think he will." I replied. If I explain to Justin everything, I am sure he is going to understand me.

I doubt he will say anything to anyone about my whereabouts. If he wanted to do that, he would have alerted the police about it. Afterall, I am a wanted criminal.

That can only mean one thing, Justin wants to hear an explanation from me.

But what's there to explain?

" Don't be so sure. Maybe we should just get rid of him. That will save us the hassle of having someone report you and have the whole police force after our asses." Theo proposes making me glare at him.

Seriously? I thought he was the reasonable one!

" Then go ahead. I wonder why your brother is taking so long to finish the task." I reply, albeit sarcastically making Theo chuckle.

" Seriously, it's been more than two minutes. What is Mason still doing?" Theo asks, concerned.

" Probably skinning the human with his eyes." I say, rolling my eyes. Mason can be immature at times.

Theo keeps quiet and I can tell he is mindlinking someone, obviously his ass of a brother.

A minute later, Mason walks in. Justin follows shortly, his eyes looking around the room warily.

When his eyes land on Theo, I see them widen. Probably from surprise.

The two brothers look alike, it's hard to differentiate between them.

Mason takes a seat opposite me and serves himself.

I chose to remain quiet while Justin stood before us awkwardly.

" Hi Justin, please have a seat. Join us for breakfast." Theo said, motioning for Justin to take the seat next to me.

Mason growls and I swear I saw Justin jump. The growl sounds so animalistic. I am not surprised Justin is scared.

" Mason, behave. It's good to be welcoming and kind to others." Theo says with a smile but Mason groans, obviously annoyed.

" By the way,I am Theo and he is Mason, my twin brother." Theo chuckles. " He's a little bit aggressive,please don't mind him." Theo adds, making me smile Inwardly while Mason glares at him.

" Hi Theo. I am Justin. It's a pleasure to meet you." Justin answers before taking a seat.

" Humans and their pretentious ways." Mason throws a snide remark.

I glare at him wondering what the hell is wrong with him.

Justin has done nothing to him, why is he being so hostile with him?

" It's called manners Mason. But I don't expect you to understand that." Theo retorts and I smile Inwardly.

If Mason is direct with his insults, Theo knows how to coat them with sugar until you smell the nastiness in them.

" I don't give a s**t about manners. I never did and will not now." Mason rudely replies, making me roll my eyes.

" You should probably stop rolling your eyes if you don't want them popping out." Mason says, his sharp gaze piercing straight to me.

I fight the urge to roll my eyes. Choosing to concentrate on my meal, I manage to peacefully have my breakfast despite the tense atmosphere in the room.

I am not going to lose my appetite over some nasty bastard, not when I am so hungry.

" What brought you here, Justin?" After breakfast, Theo asks.

" Well I followed Melissa all the way here." Justin replies, making me c**k my brows at him.

He obviously had his suspicions from the store and decided to confirm it by following me all the way here?

How I did not manage to feel his presence shocked me.

" Your stalking skills sure have improved." I compliment sarcastically but Justin just smiles.

" I'll take that as a compliment, Queen." He replies, bowing his head.

I blush at his words. It's been months Since someone called me by my agent's name.

Queen was the pseudonym I used in missions.

" I just want to Know the truth Melissa. I don't believe the accusations about you Killing all those people. I believe that there is a misunderstanding somewhere. What I don't understand is why you chose to hide. You Know that makes you guilty." Justin says making me sigh.

He will never understand.

" She owes nobody any explanation. Who do you think you are? You ask her to explain herself? Do you think you are qualified to ask that of her?" Mason thunders, his eyes shooting daggers at Justin.

" What's wrong with you buddy? I am talking to Melissa. What gives you the right to shout at me?" Probably tired of Mason's rude remarks, Justin retorts.

Mason moves to attack Justin but Theo manages to hold him back.

What's his problem anyway? I don't find anything insulting from what Justin just asked.

It seemed like Mason truly disliked Justin, but why? I didn't know. Not like he needed a reason to hate anybody.

" Let's talk calmly like civilised people, shall we?" Although Theo says it as a question, it comes out more like a command.

" It's complicated Justin. You won't understand." I try to brush away the topic but Justin shakes his head.

" Then explain to me. Make me understand. I know you are incapable of what they have accused you of. You Love your parents so much, how could you kill them?"

Left with no choice,I explain everything to Justin. From how I went home and found my parents dead to how I have been doing everything to gather evidence and uncover the truth. Of course, I did not tell him about my nightmares and the fact that I am but any ordinary human but a werewolf.

" That's just unbelievable. I can't believe someone is so cruel as to frame you like that. And that Lorenzo, I never thought he could betray us. Always pretending to be disappointed every time the case fails to make a progress." I can feel the pain and disbelief in Justin's words.

" People are not what they seem to be. You should be careful around them." Theo chips in.

" That's why Justin, I can't have anybody knowing about what I am up to. This is my only chance to prove my innocence and bring the culprit to justice and bring to an end this madness." I say in an attempt to make Justin understand why I did what I did.

He has to understand that something as big as this, only by working in the darkness could you succeed.

" I understand perfectly well. I am just sad that you have been in the office and not bothered to say hi. And that traitor Mark, how could he keep this a secret from me?" Justin laments making me smile.

The three are close like brothers, I know it must be hard for Mark to keep this a secret from the boys.

" I asked Mark to not breathe a word about this to anybody and I will ask you the same thing. If anybody finds out about where I am or what I have been up to, it's not only my life that will be at stake. Countless people would fall victim to that killer."

Justin nods his head in approval." Don't worry Melissa,your secret is safe with me." Justin promises.

" I would not be so sure. Human hearts' are filled with darkness. If I were you,I would not believe his empty promises." Mason snickered.

Justin seems offended by his words.

" What's wrong with you? You sound so bitter and full of negativity. What's your problem anyway?"

God knows I can't stand Mason anymore.

"I want to help you too Melissa."
