“They let me out, said if I killed the Hybrid Queen they would give her back to me.”

“Give who back,” Tyson asks just as the door opens. Their mother steps in and I see both boys stare at me before Ace suddenly grabs my hand, Tyson too comes over and sits next to me grabbing my other one. My brows furrowed in confusion.

Chapter 32

“Everythingokay,”Theirmotherasks, sitting across from us. She studies me for a second before looking at her sons.

“Yep,” They both say at the exact same time. Their mother looked at my hands which they were holding and so did I, wondering why they were suddenly acting weird.

“I think they think you will hurt their mother,” My wolf tells me.

“But we aren’t though are we?” My wolf shakes her head before wandering off and I can refocus on the room. Zoning back in I see them arguing with her.

“We are staying,” I hear Ace tell his mother, his grip on my hand tightening when suddenly his claws sink into my palm. I jerk my hand away. “Shit sorry,” He gushes looking at my palm that was already healing.

I get a whiff of my mate's scent as he steps into the room leaning on the door frame. His eyes go to me and I hold his stare nerves kicking in. He looks away, releasing me to argue with his brothers.

“You can’t stay here, mom wants you home, you're going,” he tells them and my heart beats erratically at his words. What would that mean for us, we would have to go home. I am not staying here with him.

“We will behave, I want to stay please Ryker,” Tyson says

“You’re not my kids, mom wants you home, you go home.”

“This is our fucking home, you can tell her no,” Tyson says standing up.

“Tone Tyson,” Ryker yells at him and Tyson sits back down, shoulders sagging.

“Please Ryker,” Ace says pleading with his brother. Ryker sighs loudly looking at his mother who seemed quite upset they didn’t want to go with her.

“Mom,” Ryker asks, looking at the woman.

“Please we will do what he wants,” Tyson says to her.

“Your brother hasn’t got time to watch over you every goddamn second and you clearly can’t listen. Zane is retiring so your brother is going to be handling everything on his own. He won't have time.”

“If we go, what happens to Reika,” Tyson asks, looking at his brother.

“She stays here with me,” Ryker says, looking over at me. I looked away. I was not staying here with him.

“If Zane is retiring, who is taking over as Beta,” Ace asks.

“I’m not sure yet, probably Jacob.”

“But Jacob is your third,” Tyson says and Ryker shrugs.

“Let me and Ace take the position.”

“You want to be Beta,” Ryker asks, raising his eyebrow.

“You're only 13,” Their mother exclaims.

“Nearly 14 and dad was 16 when he took over the pack, we can do this,” Ace adds to his brother's defense. Both of them looked up at Ryker who seemed deep in thought.

“What do you think?” He asks his mother when suddenly Reid walks in.

“I think it is a good idea, some responsibility might do them some good,” he says walking in and sitting next to his mate. It was so weird seeing family conflict, the way they all talk with each other and interact. My wolf was even watching with fascination.

“Fine, but no skipping school and you do the training, no slacking off. I say jump and you do it,” Ryker tells them and I could feel them getting all giddy over the idea of staying.
