#Chapter2
Ace POV
The next day
I was so fucking hungover, my head pounding as I roll on my side. Today was our 17th birthday, and Arial decided to get us shitfaced a day early. Man was I paying for it this morning.
I groan, forcing myself up before running my hands over my face. Tyson also got up in the bed across from me.
/"My mouth tastes like a fucking ashtray/" he grumbles.
I got up heading for the bathroom, making sure Lucy didn't cling wrap the toilet bowl lastnight. No cling wrap and I quickly pee before heading back to the room.
/"Want one?/" Tyson asks, cracking the window open and sitting on the windowsill. I take the packet lighting one before climbing out the window and sitting on the roof leaning against the wall under the window.
/"Fuck my head is pounding/" I tell him.
/"I don't feel too bad, surprisingly,/" he says.
I could smell the BBQ going and looked at Tyson.
/"What time is it?/" I ask him and he pops his head in the window grabbing his phone from beside his bed.
/"1 o'clock/"
/"Fuck I was supposed to meet up with Melana this morning/"
/"What if she isn't your mate/" he asks and I shrug,
/"It doesn't matter, she will do till I find her/" I tell him.
/"You still see that blonde bitch, Tara/" I ask him.
/"Nah, to much of a cling on, fucking asked me to mark her as my chosen mate. Like I would give up a fated for a chosen/" he says shaking his head.
I finish my smoke before flicking it only to hear someone cuss. Lana walks out into the driveway.
/"Fucking ass, you just flicked that on my head/" she says looking up at me on the roof.
/"My bad hard to see a midget from up here/" I called back.
/"That's it, I am done with the short jokes boy, I will show you fucking short/" she shrieks before stomping inside.
/"I would run if I were you/"
/"Na, I'm good/" I say when the bedroom door bursts open. Tyson snorts and I get a whiff of Drake's scent.
/"Fuck!/" I say jumping up.
/"That's fucking cheating Lana/" I scream when Drake climbs out the window.
/"Sorry bro, gotta dish out and ass kicking/" he growls and I jump off the roof, Drake hot on my heels as do a runner from him.
/"Better run Ace/" Lana calls out laughing, Just as I am tackled. We wrestle before Tate comes running over, also helping Drake pin me down. I see Tyson jump off the roof laughing before seeing a pissed off Lana stalking towards me in her midget fury. Tate and Drake trying to pin me down.
/"Ha, not so cocky now/" she says.
/"You fucking cheated, had to get your mates to get me because your too piss weak/" I spit at her before tossing Drake off. She jumps on my back like a Spider monkey before biting my shoulder blade. I growl at her trying to toss her off.
/"You fucking bit me/"
/"Bloody pin him/" Lana screams at her mates as they laugh at her clinging to me. I reach over my head grabbing her shirt before pulling her over my shoulder and throwing her on the ground. She growls at me getting up off the dirt.
/"Instead of laughing, how about you help?/" I yelled at Tyson who was just watching me be attacked by the three of them. Hearing a war cry, I turned to look at all my nieces and nephews charging out of the house. Oh fuck!
/"Get him kids/" Lana tells them and I run off, /"oh shit!/" Tyson says when he sees them running at him as well.
We both take off for the trees knowing they can't enter without their parent's.
/"No fair/" I heard Rayan call out when we went to their out of bounds area.
/"Come on we can go around back/" Tyson says and we trudge through the Forest heading to the back of the property.
I could just make out the swings and back area of the house as we step out of the trees, when I get a whiff of something that perks my wolf up.
/"Fuck something smells good/" I tell Tyson, and he sniffs the air.
/"Mm what is that?/" he asks and I shrug. My mouth was watering at the scent. I could see my mother putting up party decorations before Lucy skips down the steps with some fairy lights in her hands and some lanterns.
/"Mate/" both Tyson and I say at the same time, making me look at him. He growls at me and I growl back.
/"No mine/" he snaps at me.
/"Like fuck, I saw her first/" I tell him shoving him, he shoves me back.
/"Oi what's going on?/" My mother yells at us as I punch him. Distracting me enough that Tyson fist connects with my face. I tackle him and my mother shrieks.
/"Hey, buttfaces/" Lucy calls out to us and both of us look over at her. Lucy had been raised alongside us, she was our brother's stepdaughter and was 12, I couldn’t believe our luck. Not only were we paired to the same girl we now had to wait years before she would recognise us, that’s even if she could being a hybrid mutation without a wolf.
/"Can you help me hang these lights?/" she asks, completely oblivious to the fact she is our mate or one day will be.
/"I'll help/" I tell her, shoving Tyson back on the ground.
/"No, I fucking will/" Tyson says shoving me back and knocking me over.
/"What's going on, stop, you will scare the kids/" Ryker says storming down the steps toward us as I swing at Tyson.
/"What has got into you, why are you fighting?/" he asks.
/"We were mucking around/"Tyson says, wiping his lip that was bleeding.
/"Doesn't look like it/" he snaps at us. I drop my arm on Tyson's shoulder, jerking him toward me before slapping his chest.
/"We good, right bro?/"
He slaps mine harder /"never better/" he says.
/"Good, I need one of you to help me get the lights up there/" Lucy says pointing to the railing along the awning.
Tyson walks over to her grabbing her and placing her on his shoulders, I growl at him and Ryker looks at me. Giving me a look of what the fuck is going on. I shake my head walking over and passing the lights up to Lucy as she clips them onto the awning.
/"What's wrong with you two morons?/" She asks.
