And Then There Were Four

"That's not cool. I mean you should at least know," I replied, feeling slightly bad for her that she didn't know who her father was. "It's okay, I'm not too bothered," she added before cheering for the people on the field. As I looked back towards my brother, I watched him walk towards the sidelines where a group of girls were flirting. His signature smile came on display causing me to cringe as I watched him "work his magic" or so he liked to call it.

"God, can he be anymore annoying..." I muttered with disgust, rolling my eyes as I admired the others. It was then when my eyes met Lucas', I noticed he was staring right at me. Those same damn mesmerizing eyes catching me off guard as a slow smirk slid onto the corner of his lips.

"Oh, snap... does he belong to you?" Sansa asked, causing me to scoff.

"He kinda does, but she won't admit to it."

Trixie's overly cheerful voice appeared behind me and gave me a heart attack and as I jumped, I placed my hand upon my chest to turn and glare at her from over my shoulder. "Jesus Christ, woman... you about gave me a heart attack. You can't go sneaking up on people like that."

Both Sansa and Trixie laughed at my reaction as I grumbled my unhappiness under my breath. "Don't change the subject," Sansa added. "I need the juicy details."

I wasn't sure what it was about Sansa, but between her and Trixie, I felt like we had been old friends who had known each other our entire lives. "It's complicated."

"Everything is always complicated with you." Trixie smirked. "He is hot, though, just like your brother. I'm not sure why you're opposed to him, but if you're not careful, one of the other girls will try to snag him up."

The thought of one of the other girls touching Lucas did bother me, and I didn't like that it did. Yet, no matter the fact he was supposed to be my mate, I couldn't get past the shit he had done. To hide being my mate, and then act like an asshole all these months. He confused me, like an internal war brewing in my mind that just won't let up.

"He is an ass-" I mumbled, trying to look away from him and not let him see how much he was bothering me.

"Looks like someone else likes his ass-" Quickly darting my gaze back to Lucas, I watched Zia walk to him with a smile on her face and anger flared through me. A swirling mass of chaos slowly started to build inside me, and as if he knew, his eyes met mine and he smiled.

"Oh, that's how he wants to play is it?" I replied in a sinister tone as I glanced towards Sansa and Trixie. "Two can play at this game.."

Trixie's normally happy expression turned to one of concern as I stood to my feet. "Cassie, what are you doing?"

Sliding my jacket off, I grabbed my

hair band and quickly pulled my long purplish-pink hair up into a messy bun, and continued down the steps of the arena. I knew very well people were watching me, but right now I didn't care. The swirling chaos in my heart was calling me to play with him.

"Hey, coach!" I called out letting my gaze slide from Lucas to the extremely tall older shifter who stood on the sidelines watching my brother and another kid spar. My brother of course dominating the kid with ease. "Let me have a round with him." Laughter escaped the man as he shook his head no. "No way. You will get your ass hurt, and I'm not being responsible for it."

"I wasn't asking for your permission,"

I said through clenched teeth as I

ran, leaping over the figures of the three men who had been in my way. I was far more skilled than my brother was. With perfect timing, I landing on the ground in front of the kid, my eyes locked onto Lux with a wicked glance.

His blow to the kid stopped in it's tracks as I caught his wrist when I landed. "What the fuck, Cassie!"Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.

"Get that girl off the field!" The coach yelled from a short distance away as murmur's and gasps echoed around the stadium.

"Oh, come on Pollux. Let's give them something to really get them excited."

My brothers eyes narrowed as he sneered. "No fucking way. You're not supposed to be out here."

"Are you worried about losing to me again?" I asked him in a teasing tone as I stepped closer to him. "Come on-brother. You never refused to TRY and beat me before... do you not want them to see who really is the best out of us?"
