And Then There Were Four (Lilith Carrie)

Pollux.

~Fifteen minutes earlier-

I didn't understand why my sister thought she could act however she wanted. We were the future of the pack, and instead of growing up and doing what needed to be done, she continuously acted like a child. Watching her make her way towards her friend Melissa with her hot pink hair swinging behind her, I groaned.

She would be the death of me if I didn't get her under control.

"Lux! Baby, I missed you!" Ashley's high pitch voice met my ears the moment I opened my truck door. The girl was gorgeous for sure, and in bed she got the job done, but other than that, she honestly had nothing going for her.

"Hey, Ashley," I replied flatly, watching the disappointment on her face surface at my greeting. It didn't matter what she did, I couldn't get behind the overly affectionate shit she was into. It just wasn't me, and honestly, the last few weeks I had been second guessing why I even had her around in the first place.

Closing my truck door, her slender figure wrapped around my bicep, pulling me closer towards her. She wasn't the only one to come flocking towards me the moment I arrived at school, but she was the only one to cling to me like a child clinging to its mother. Something I found to be rather annoying.

"So, I was thinking about the party and I thought maybe we can go shopping after school to pick out our matching outfits. It's going to be a very big night when the pack is introduced to their future Alpha and Luna together." "What?" I muttered, furrowing my gaze at her with confusion. "What are you talking about?"

she shrugged her shoulders with a small laugh. "Uh-us, being proclaimed the Luna and Alpha of
