Mated To The Alpha Twins

The Alpha Ceremony

Chapter 6- The Alpha Ceremony

*Averys POV*

I slammed my hand on to the car, then turned to grin at the others who were lagging behind.

“I won!” I cheered, it had been a while since I had felt this happy and I was enjoying every moment before it inevitably came crashing down around me. Harry leant on the car smirking, a eye brow raised at me.

“You won because I wasn’t trying” he laughed, a sparkle in his eyes that wasn’t there days ago. It was true, he had Alpha blood which meant he was quicker, bigger and stronger then the average werewolf and all his sense were heightened. I knew if he was taking it easy on me but it was a victory none the less, and I was proud of it.

“Excuses excuses” I cheered, picking my tongue out at him just to rub salt in his wounds.

“Alright you won, pick your prize” he whispered, pushing a strand of hair out of my face before tucking it gently behind my ear. My body naturally shivered, to which he grinned devilishly at.

‘I like this one’ purred Rain, pushing to come forward. I pushed her back, ignoring her growls at me.

‘Reel it in, we don’t like anyone’ I barked back, irritated that she was choosing for me. It was true I was warming up to the twins, they hadn’t completely lied to me when they said they were going to change but my stone wall was up nonetheless. I couldn’t let myself get close to them just to end up leaving, I couldn’t do that to them no matter how bad they have treated me.

“Okay I want to know what my surprise is now” I smirked, folding my arms over my chest and tilting my head.

“Apart from that” Regan laughed, carrying the bags of food.

“But I won fair and square!” I squealed, stomping my feet on the floor, the boys dissolve into laughter. I sulked off, climbing into the passenger seat. Everyone climbed in after me, Harry getting behind the wheel. He turned to look at me and I threw him a pout in protest. He shook his head and chuckled, starting the car and reversing out of the space. I ignored everyone the rest of the way home, still brooding over the fact they refused to tell me what the surprise was. As we pulled up to the pack house, Liam and Harvey climbed out and proceeded to get all the shopping bags out. I leaped out of my seat to go help, it was my stuff and they shouldn’t have to carry it for me, I do have arms. As I reached out for a bag I felt a firm hand push mine away, I looked up to see a grinning Regan.

“No helping. You are coming with me” he laughed, picking me up and throwing me over his shoulder as if I weighed nothing. I squealed and punched his back in protest, however they did nothing to stop him as he charged in through the pack house and up the stairs. We went straight past his room which I thought was odd, and into Harry’s. He placed me down on the floor and covered my eyes with his hands, his skin was surpassingly soft against my eye lids. I heard the zip of a bag and then he removed his hands. Harry stood holding a beautiful navy blue gown, simple but elegant. I let out a small gasp, my eyes flickering between them.

“Now you get ready and we will see you after the ceremony” beamed Harry, offering the dress to me. I reached my hand out and ran my hand over the soft fabric, in complete shock. He laid it in my arms before pressing a kiss to my forehead then leaving the room with Regan. The moment they left everything felt cold. I shrugged my clothes off , before taking the gown off the hanger slipping into it. I twirled in the mirror and stopped to take myself in, I had never thought of myself as attractive or pretty but in this very moment in this very dress I felt like a Luna. I decided on just letting my hair down naturally, dragging a brush through it to pull out the knots. I turned to the bed and saw a pink box with a white velvet bow neatly placed on top of the covers. I crossed the room, curiosity getting the better of me, on top was a little note .

‘We thought you wouldn’t like heels so got you these instead, hope you like them

~ Your Alpha Twins

I chuckled to myself, they weren’t wrong I had never worn a pair of heels on my life and would just end up embarrassing myself in front of not only my pack but many others to. Grimacing at the thought of making my self the laughingstock of the community I pulled the bow undone to the box. When the fabric dropped to the sheets I slowly lifted the lid of the box to see a white pair of slip on daps, plain and simple but my style. I pulled them out and admired them for a moment, it was very rare that i had new clothes but I guess that’s changed now since they basically n bought me a whole store. I slipped them on and wasn’t surprised when fitted perfectly, knowing they would of gone through my room to find out what size I was. I heard a knock on the door and I panicked for a moment before I was mind linked.

‘It’s me. Can I come in?’ Laya asked, I let out a sigh of relief. Even though we weren’t doing very well at hiding it, we had avoided the Alpha and Luna since breakfast and I was not looking forward to the next run in I had with her.

‘Yeah you can come in’ I replied, packing away the note in the box and re-tying the bow. The door opened and in stepped Laya in a baby pink knee length dress, covered in sequins and jewels.

“Avery you look amazing!” She gushed, closing the door and rushing over to me.

“So do you!” I complimented her, she did a little twirl before giggling.

“They really out did themselves didnt they” she smirked, looking me up and down again.

“I’m guessing you had something to do with this?” I playfully pushed her shoulder and she shook her head.

“Come on or we will be late!” She shouted frantically after looking at her watch, she grabbed my hand and dragged me out of the room and downstairs. All packs had merged together for the night, chatting and drinking before the ceremony began. We walked through he house, a few people stared at us in shock, or they were staring at me. All the eyes was making me nervous, I could feel my skin crawling as if people were talking about me. As we walked out into the pack garden I turned to see Trinity and Shona in a heated discussion, there eyes burned holes through me as they watched us walk past. I want accustom to attending events like this, I was usually made to serve or told to hide myself away until guests had left which meant I didn’t know a lot of people from our pack or others.

The garden had been decorated beautifully, banners and fairy lights were weaved from tree to tree, a huge stage had been put up towards the back of the garden with a makeshift dance floor. Tables surrounded the dance floor, each table has a red table cloth draped over with a fish bowl full of water and a delicate white lily floating on top. I gazed around, completely stunned by the transformation. Laya pulled us to a table hidden at the back, we sat down and I was immediately scanning the crowd for any sign of the twins. When I couldn’t spot them my heart sank, Laya must have noticed as she squeezed my hand gently.

“They’ll be here soon there probably just schmoozing” she jested, however I wasn’t in the joking mood. This environment was already making me tense and I wanted nothing more then to disappear back upstairs but I knew today was a big day for the twins so the least I could do was put on a smile and try and enjoy myself after everything they’ve done for me. I sat people watching for a while, Laya explaining who everyone was and what pack they were from.

“That’s Alpha Keenan and his mate Luna Ester they belong to the ShadowLand pack. Beside them is Alpha James, he hasn’t found his mate yet and is the Alpha to the Midnight pack. That’s-“

“Alpha Richard’s” I growled, I could recognise that face anywhere although ageing didn’t do him any favours.

“Rumour has it he murdered his mate” Laya muttered, folding with the table cloth while I carried on my glares. I was basically invisible to him, why would he notice me? It’s not like he ruined my entire life and took away my chance of happiness and a family. Tapping of a microphone brought me back, I turned to see Alpha Tyler stood on the stage, Luna Cleo attached to his side. Behind them, much to mine and Rains delight, stood the twins, Liam and Harvey. The twins had black tight fitted suits, my eyes roamed over them taking them in, they’re eyes met mine and they stood there grinning.

“Today we join together to pass on the responsibility of the Bloodstone pack down to my sons, Harry and Regan. Today you become Alphas. Do you promise to protect this pack and everything it stands for?” Beamed Alpha Tyler, I stared on tentatively as each twin stepped forward.

“I, Harry James White, promise to protect the pack and everything it stands for” grinned Harry, sending me a flirtatious wink before looking around at the crowd pleased.

“I,Regan Kieran White, promise to protect the pack and everything it stands for” Regan smiled, his eyes falling on me and gave a cocky smirk. These boys would be the death of me, I shook my head laughing.

“Now you can appoint your Beta and Delta” Alpha Tyler continued, wrapping his arms around a sobbing Luna Cleo.

“We have chosen Liam Owens as Beta and Harvey Moore as Delta” Spoke Regan, Liam and Harvey stepped forward grinning before throwing everyone in the crowd a wave which started a choir of laughter. Me and Laya stood up clapping, my heart filled with so much joy it could burst, this was everything they dreamed off and what they’ve worked hard for.

“We have a announcement” Harry stepped forward, the crowd instantly hushed and I sat back down quickly. A announcement, they never told me anything about this.

“First of all we would like to thank everyone coming to join ours for this special day, a special welcome and thank you to all the other packs here today for joining in the celebration” Regan stood tense and serious, my anxiety hit a new high and I could feel my body throbbing. Their parents looked at them with such love and admiration.

“While we have everyone here we wanted to get a few things clear. First off things are going to change here, after the Pack Wars we let our standards slip” I ran my eyes across the room and saw many people grimace, I wasn’t the only one who had lost people.

“Everyone of our pack is welcome at the pack house, our home is yours we are all a family and it’s time we start acting like one. That means that everyone who stays helps out, we will not tolerate anyone treating anyone differently. Starting as of next week there will be mandatory pack trainings on Wednesdays and Saturdays, it will start at 5 so that everyone is able to attend unless excused” Harry bellowed, guests sharing confused glances. Chills ran down my spine, they really did mean it when they said they were making history.

“Now enough seriousness this is a party after all, now get up and enjoy” Regan chimes in, breaking the tense atmosphere that had formed. I saw them walk towards their parents, Harry muttering something angrily into his parents ear, I tried to eavesdrop but they were speaking in such harsh whispers it was impossible to hear. The former Alpha and Luna nodded and rushed off stage, muttering quietly to each other as they approached the patio door. I was to busy watching them I hadn’t realised the Twins had appeared in front of me.

“Oh crap!” I shouted, startled by there sudden presence, many of the guest glared at me from a distance.

“We need to talk Avery” Regan looks at me and smiles, but I could tell something was playing on his mind. I turned to Laya who was stood up grinning , what’s was going on? There was something they weren’t telling me. He offers me a hand and helps me up, I couldn’t sense it till now but his Alpha presence was a lot stronger. He led me through the pack house and up to the top floor, Laya and Harvey closely behind. We entered into a large lounge room with a corridor leading off to the left and the right, I gazed around in awe.

“But this is your Mum and Dads floor, we shouldn’t be here” i gasped, turning around to head back downstairs instinctively.

“I think your forgetting we are the Alphas now” grinned Harry, who was leaning on the wall watching me. It was true, I did forget but it seemed very sudden that moments after the Alpha ceremony we would be moving into the top floor.

“We have removed our parents from the pack house” Harry said matter-of-factly as if reading my face had become second nature to him.

“Removed!? What why?” I winced, I know they were never kind to me but to be told they can not live in the same building as their sons must have been heartbreaking. I couldn’t imagine what they were feeling.

“Because Trinity let slip tonight about our situation, they are not happy they even tried to forbid it” snarled Regan, his lips twisted into a scowl, the anger made him look sexier. Rain was purring in delight, I shook my head, pushing the dirty thoughts back with Rain.

“Imagine the cheek on them! They wanted us to reject you and take Trinity as our mate” scoffed Harry, my heart sank. What if they were going to reject me? The twins over the last few days have been the soul to my very existence, I really had thought they had changed and it had convinced part of me that I wanted to stay and have some sort of happiness here.

“And what did you say?” I muttered, averting my gaze to the floor. It was taking everything I had in me not to burst into tears and run.

‘They wouldn’t do it’ whined Rain, I don’t know who she was trying to convince me or her self.

“Avery look at me” Regan began, I felt my body tense as I lifted my head slowly to see him gazing down at me smiling.

“They’re gone aren’t they? If they couldn’t respect our decision then they have no place around us or the pack house, this is your home as-well as ours and it’s time started acting like it” Regan grinned and I felt the warmth return back to my body, every muscle that seized up relaxing. Giggles and chuckles erupted around us and for a second I had forgot the others were here, I turned to see Laya happily weeping with Liam and Harvey laughing at her.

“What a girl can’t have feelings now? Jesus Christ, Hermione was right when she said boys have the emotional range of a tea spoon” growls Laya and I couldn’t help but laugh at the boys confused faces at her reference.

“Simple people” i chuckled, my mood had changed drastically from a minute ago.

“What’s that supposed to mean” cried Harry, falling on to the sofa dramatically. I rolled my eyes, suppressing a giggle.

“Anyway” Regan laughed “We have one more meeting in our office then we are all yours”. My shoulders sagged, after not seeing them all afternoon I was looking forward to being able to spend time with them. Harry must of read my disappointment and stood up quickly before rushing over to comfort me.

“It won’t be long and Harvey and Laya are going to stay to keep you company, torture them with whatever movie you want” Harry whispered, pulling my in to his arms and I wrapped my arms around his waist. I chuckled pressing my cheek into his chest enjoying the couple seconds of warmth.

“Why have I got to be on babysitting duty!” Harvey argued, throwing his hands up in the air before Laya shoved him and he fell to the floor. She stood above hun smugly before offering him a hand to help him up.

“It’s not babysitting we are going to introduce you to the wonderful wizarding world ” i grinned, pulling away from Harry and walking over to Regan to give him a cuddle before he left. As I reached him his arms wrapped around me and squeezed, I gave a quiet sigh. I waved goodbye to Liam and we pulled Harvey over to the sofa, and pushed him down. I never got to watch TV at the pack house and only ever got to watch it on the very rare occasions I got to visit Laya and GamGam. We all got comfy as Laya found the first movie of the Harry Potter franchise, and Harvey groaned.

“I guarantee you will love it” Laya smiled at him, and he smiled back, they would look cute as mates I think to myself before grimacing. When was i the person who imagined people together, I always thought being alone was the best option, the safest option but the twins had me rethinking all of it. We watched the movie, stopping at intervals to explain to Harvey what was happening. His eyes were glued to the screen, taking in every detail and refusing to blink incase he missed anything. He remained like that till the end of the money, when the credits started playing he gasped in horror.

“What that’s just the first movie!? Put the second one on now” he commanded, grabbing the nearest pillow and hugging it. Laya burst into laughter as I pulled myself off the sofa.

“I’m going toilet and then getting some snacks” I chuckled, they both frantically nodded then swept themselves into a heated debate on who was the best character, I left them to their own devices and wondered down one of the corridors in search of the nearest bathroom. In all my time living here I had never stepped a foot on the top floor, everything was so much nicer up here and it was maze. I walked past a room and heard the twins muttering, I paused slightly debating on wether to go in or not before shaking off the thought and carrying on. I eventually found the bathroom, it had beige slabs across every wall and the floor was identical, a huge bath took over a corner of the bathroom. A shower the same as the boys was tucked away on the side of the room, giant glass doors sealing it. I used the bathroom before heading back to the lounge. To my surprise the twins were lounging on the sofa opposite Harvey, Liam and Laya, snacks sprawled over the laps and remaking spaces on the sofa. I turned to them shocked, they had already started the second movie without me.

“Now that’s the ultimate betrayal” I cried, taking my place between the twins, refusing to look at them.

“That’s my fault” Harvey muttered, and I couldn’t help but stop my fake pouting and laugh. I was never much of a actor.
