Unknown Twins

Today was the day, I am 23 and officially getting married. I could't put it off any longer.  I wrapped my robe around me tightly. I go to open my balcony doors and instantly smell October's chilly breeze, it sends chills up my spine. I grab my favorite peach white tea, that my mother had set up waiting for me out side. I normally have a flower garden blooming but this time of year it was gone. I could still see all shades of yellows, reds and oranges from the trees for miles. This was my favorite spot to come relax and even on today it did just that for me, even if I wanted to run and hide forever. Thinking to myself " Shouldn't I be more excited? I mean it was my birthday and I was getting married. I was marring into the biggest and strongest Packs in the world. I would surely be taken care of taken, I also feared the family I was about to become apart of. They weren't rumored to be friendly and nice but to take out packs for crossing them. I just always wished I could make decisions for myself, without having to worry about my Royal family or Pack first. I knew this was selfish but I was sure I wasn't the only one to feel this way." "Shayla, Shay darling are you up? Today is the day, and I have the maids with me to start getting you ready?" Oh my mother of mine. I smile at the sound of her voice every time. She was my best friend, we remain close even as I got older. I wasn't like other girls at school or in the pack who had best friends, or sisters. While I would die for my pack, I just preferred to be a loner, or with my brothers. I had 5 brothers, the oldest being Jayden, the middle ones were, Stephan, Zander, and Silas, youngest but still older then me was Zayden. Since I was the baby, they loved and spoiled, but father always made sure we never got to much time together. Jay would always check on me and make sure I'm doing the best I can in everything. Silas and Zay were closest to me and would argue with father if he would try to keep us apart. Stephan and  Zander always watched from afar. Never wanting to get into it with father but made sure I knew they would swoop in in seconds if I needed them. It has always been a good feeling having brothers, but I wished for a sister going up, I felt like I had one in my head but never in person with me. My father on the other hand, was only found of his boys. I was the youngest and at times it hurt to know I would never be "daddy's little girl", I knew today would be a happy moment for him to finally get rid of me. While he was never rude or mean to me he sure wasn't loving or kind either. He only acted like he semi cared when others were around, I felt like he did as much as he could to avoid me at all cost if possible.  "Good morning mother. I am in deed up and as ready as I could possible get for this crazy day of madness everyone but me is excited for" I giggle, not to sound so sarcastic. "My beautiful Shay, I can't believe the day is finally here. You have made me one proud mother, I know you'll make your new family just as proud. You husband will have the most beautiful wife and Omega in the world." She hand my dress to one of the many maid ready to get to work, and pulled me in for a tight hug. I hug her back realizing not only is she crying but this wouldn't just be a hard day for me but she is letting go of her only daughter. This day was going to be extremely hard for her as well. We hugged for a could couple minutes, while the maids started setting up everything in my chambers. For not being a huge wedding I thought this was a lot to go through for greeting and a sign of papers. I push the thought away and take a deep breath with my mom before we let go. "You ready darling? She was no longer crying but would have to touch up her make up, I was thankful I hadn't been fully ready yet. "Yes Mother I am" I turn around and my dress was on my bed, it had to be the most extravagant wedding dress I had even laid eye on. It was a ball gown, long lace sleeve, it was a lavender color with little white diamonds everywhere. my face was hot I had tears rolling down my check when I realized my mom had worn almost the same dress for her and my fathers wedding. As a hobby, my mom designed dresses for her, me and if someone willing to pay a decent coin she would make custom pieces for Royal family's. "Mom is this your dress or did you.." "No honey this was my dresses fabric, I redesigned it for your dress to match you, and your wolf. I know my taste isn't exactly your's" She said smiling with a light laugh. I was so unbelievable thankful for this women I was lucky enough to call my mother. Just when I thought she couldn't top the dress, she hands me a small box. "This is from your brothers, they had it made just for this day, and everything was one of their ideas. They never want you to forget they will always be your protectors, even if you married" I take a long moment to look at it, never had my brothers given me gifts, I wasn't even sure I knew they had this type of side to them to think of me  when I am no longer part of this family or pack but they did. I was utterly speechless and I hadn't even opened it yet. "Go on darling open it" "No, I want to wait until I am full ready, and were about to leave. I can feel them (my brothers), I want one of them to place it on me before we leave. It's from them they need to be here to see me ware it. They should know better to think they would get away with not being here with a gift from them" I knew they could hear me our wolf could talk to each other without being around. Most could reach extreme distances if my brothers on our turf they could hear me and if we weren't they would have to be close to hear me. But within seconds I know they heard me. I hear Zander "Why do you have to be so stubborn?" Stephan, "Really Shay?" I couldn't help but let our a little laughter Zay "But sis, I don't handle emotions well" Jay "Always your way huh sis?" Stephan "We'll be waiting for you Shayla, We love you little sister" I was wondering if Stephan would say anything, he was a man of little words. I would miss him dearly.
