Alpha Twins And Their Hybrid Mate novel Chapter 11

TWINS’ POV

I’m not going to lie. What Ella said to us was really hurtful. She said that we were making her sick with our pursuit of her. Wendy was sitting at the table looking just as shocked as we were at Ella’s sudden outburst.

Where the hell did that come from? She was always so quiet. We didn’t know what the hell had gotten into her. But as she was leaving we got a glimpse of a couple bruises on her arm when her sleeve rolled up.

We were sure that Ella was our mate. We knew it since the day that we met her. We never thought that she’d be human though. She’s meant to be a wolf. Not just any wolf, but a white wolf. We always knew that she was meant to be a wolf. The prophecy said so. She was the one that was going to break the curse.

Was this some sort of test by the Moon Goddess? I can’t imagine that she would do that to us. Maybe this was also the work of witches. This was another way for them to torture us. It wasn’t enough for the full moon to almost kill us each month. They had to fuck around with us actually finding our mate as well.

Maybe that was the problem. We were so desperate to break this damn curse that was put on us that we weren’t actually paying attention to our mate or what she wanted. We came on too quickly and too suddenly because we knew that she was the one. She was going to free us, but we didn’t stop to consider her feelings. Especially since she’s not a wolf. If this is what the witches wanted, we weren’t going to give it to them. She doesn’t know about shifter wolves. She doesn’t know about our world. Ella is everything to us, and all we’ve managed to do is push her away.

“I think I’ve gotten to know Ella pretty good in the last couple of days.” Wendy said, snapping us out of our thoughts.

We sat back down to talk to Wendy because she might have some sort of insight into all of this. She might have caught something that we’ve missed.

“What do you think we’re missing?” Nathan asked.

“Have you seen where she lives?” Wendy asked.

“No. We’ve stayed away from her house. We thought that we’d be too tempted to go inside.” Tristan said.

“Good. Because it’s a dump. And I think her stepfather is a drunk. He doesn’t work. And she calls her mother by her first name. From what I can tell, she doesn’t like talking about them which means she’s not close with them.” Wendy explained. So we looked at each other, trying to figure out what Wendy was trying to say.

“Are you saying that she is getting beaten at home?” Tristan asked.

“I can’t say that for sure. But when I dropped her at home, she didn’t want me to drive her to the house. She wanted me to stop at the end of the long driveway. So I wouldn’t see the house. I picked her up the this morning for school and she was waiting at the end of the driveway. Not at the house.” Wendy said.

We looked at each other again and we knew that there was definitely something going on at home. If those bastards were hurting her, they were going to end up regretting it for the rest of their lives. We’d make sure of it.

“I don’t think she got all of those bruises at home either.” Wendy said.

“What do you mean?” Nathan asked, looking confused. Where else could she have gotten them from?

“I think Leia might have had something to do with one of them. At least one of them. Listen, I don’t think she’s ever had close friends before. I get the impression that she believes she doesn’t deserve friends. Probably something her parents have told her repeatedly. But I can tell you this, she’s definitely never had a boyfriend.” Wendy said.

“She told you that?” Nathan asked.

“She didn’t have to. I’ve seen the way she is around you two. You’re the most loved guys at school and you are both interested in her. She also thinks that it’s weird you are both pursuing her without getting jealous. That you two are willing to share her.” Wendy said. That made a lot of sense. If she grew up around humans then this would seem weird to her. She wouldn’t know that identical twin wolves would have the same mate.

“She’s our mate.” Nathan said.

“She doesn’t know that.” Wendy said.

“So, you’re saying that she doesn’t have much self-esteem?” Tristan asked. But that was already pretty obvious.
