I moved with this guy, he took me to the end of the driveway and I dug my heels in before crossing my arms. I needed to know where we were going, why were we were leaving. Why my brother hated him, and why he seemed to know me already. He looked back at me when I started to pull to a stop. "What? We need to go." He told me and I just moved to the end of the tree line and waited some more... but like a guy, he had no idea what was wrong with me. "Why do we have to go? What was that with you and my brother?" "We have to go because I am not allowed on your fathers pack lands and he could challenge me for the right to your hand and give it away at any moment like he threated to do 7 years ago." Jax told me and I just shook my head. My dad wouldn't have done that. He knew how bad I was yearning for my mate. "Why doesn't he like you? Or my brothers?" "Why do you think?" "Because I was younger than you?" "No Regina, because you're mine and they want you for themselves. They don't want you with an Alpha." "That doesn't make sense." I told him honestly and turned to look at the pack house and I noticed my family coming out, stalking out more  like it, gone were the dress shirts and jackets... my brothers were in their slacks and tank tops and looked ready for a fight. "You think they're coming out here to give you warm hugs and kisses? They're coming here to make me leave. I might not be your family yet, but I am your mate Regina. You're mine. I am not going to go looking for a second chance if you reject me right now. I am going to go and fight off rogues or something stupid because my wolf will be pushing me to do something like that. You're my mate Regina. Am I yours?" "Jax-" "You're done. Go inside Regina. Find a real Alpha-" "I am a blood alpha! Direct descendent from the Luna herself." I paused, knowing that there was some in his line that killed Omegas for diluting the Alpha lines. I looked at him and then my parents. Were they scared eh was going to kill me? Hurt me? They had to have a good explanation. "You're a blood alpha, which means you're going to hurt her, you're going to put her in a box and send her back to us." My mother accused and I gulped slowly and backed away from them both. I put distance between me and my family, and stepped sideways from my mate. "I am not my uncle! I am not my grandfather. I am Jax Harris and I do not hurt females, children, or weaklings. I will not hurt my mate, I will not tarnish the love that was sent to me by the great Luna. I will not let her be poisioned by you to hate me, and I will not leave her here to be handed off to another male. "I will not see my little girl be handed over to you, you're from monsters and hate." My mother shouted and she noticed me backing away and charged to grab me. Before she could touch me I heard the growl, the cracking of bones, and I looked over and saw my mate, he had shifted, and he had planted his eyes on my brothers and father. "No." They all took his shifting as an invitation to start, to shift and fight for their rights to me. My mother grabbed my arms, pulling me back to the pack house and I had to fight her off to let me go. I heard them fighting. He hadn't gone after my mother despite her being the one that set him off. "No." I pulled from her, getting some of my hair caught as she tried to grab me again, and I turned and pulled my dress up until I was looking and heading towards my mate, and my brothers and dad. "Enough." I grabbed one of my brothers, pulling him off of the side of my mates neck, and moved in to push the others off. My wolf was on the surface, but her pull was to protect what belonged to us.  Being an omega we didn't care too much about rank. We were portrayed as the comic relief, the ones who submitted to the Alphas and quivered... but Omegas weren't held back by much. Our wolves were loners who didn't take s**t and usually ended up pissing people off. Omegas were the broken part of the golden rule. We bowed to no one, we didn't submit to anyone but those we loved, and right now, I had the urge to push at everyone until we were being listened to. We didn't crave power unless it benefitted us. We didn't like to be Luna's or Alphas... we wanted to be there, and happy.  "Enough!" I shouted again, getting my brothers to back off and my father to growl at me, but my mate was fast to growl back at him. "Enough." I added and looked at each of them again. "I am here... I have my own brain and heart and my own wolf. I am an omega, we bow to no one and we heed no one. If he wants me as a mate, we get to try-" "NO! We will never see you again." "Let me finish mom." I begged and she grabbed my fathers coat and kept her hands in his fur tight as I took a breath. "Until we are fully mated, we will stay here. But he is not going to be attacked. You will see you were wrong, and if you are right.. then you're here to save me. Or finish him off because you know I am not going to go down without a fight." Jax came to myself and growled just a little bit and shook his fur, he had some blood but I could tell he was no longer bleeding. "Which means... we get the cottage on the back of the property and privacy and time to get to know each other. And... you all have to get along as well. If I am mating him, having babies, and picking flowers... we are all going to be a family." "How long, dear mate, shall we do this experiment for your family?" "A month." I pulled that out of my ass, but if nothing could be fixed between us in a month... then maybe we would just invite people to his place one at a time until they bond and start to like him. "That's... doable... as long as it takes." Jax told me and I smiled and felt his hand skimming mine until he linked our fingers together. My father gagged in his wolf form and I rolled my eyes and waited for my brothers to agree or d o something just as childish. "Now... apologize." I urged them all and pushed my mate closer so they were all face to face. "For what?" Jax asked and turned to me like he was offended. "All of you... you apologize for initiating the attack, and they apologize for making it unfair and thinking the worst of you." I told him and waved it off, it was just an apology, there was no harm behind it, but then I never got the whole 'we don't' do that because we're alphas' thing they had... the complex that they were right and I was wrong. "Sorry." I heard my brother Westley pushed out and I smiled at him before my other brothers followed. My father shifted, gave him a hard look and I had to elbow Jax so he would do it before my father... most of the time he did it last. Especially after my mother. "Good! Now... can we go back inside, dismiss all the other Alphas and eat?" "There are still Alphas who want you, just know that." I heard my mother whisper and I rolled my eyes and moved to stand and walk with Jax. He grabbed my hand again and we walked back in like nothing happened in front of anyone that had come outside to watch. We walked in, and I noticed Jax's men were coming in from the sides of the house as well. "What is this stuff?" Jax asked me as we got to the food table and it was mostly put into Disney themed food.  "Disney... this is a cinderella party." "A Cinderella party." He repeated it back slow, and I had to wonder what he knew about it, and then I smiled and realized I could educate him on the best Disney, princess or not, movies I have. I did have a month....
