CHAPTER 16 - THE LADIES TALK
I woke up with very cold feet literally because my bed and my feet are soaked with ice. Diana already knew whose idea was it even before opening her eyes.
"MINI!" Diana called her sneaky little sister.
Marcel came out of the shower while Minerva is holding her laughter with an empty bucket on her hand.
"You did this?” Diana stated with reliance.
"You wouldn't wake up so Marcel and I had to find ways to make you." Mini saw another small bucket at the foot of her bed.
"I will get my revenge soon just wait for it." Diana gets up smirking.
"Please don't be mad, Dee we won't do it again I promise." Minerva swears.
"Of course I wouldn't get mad Mini but I will be if you don't give me a hug." Diana opened her arms.
Minerva hugs her and that’s the beginning of her tickle revenge, in a matter of minutes Marcel joined his sisters. Minerva is now between her brother and sister but if people can see them right now they will think they are family, like mother and father.
"No! No! Mommy help! Help!” Minerva screamed.
They were in that position when suddenly the door opens with a very angry person giving the most murderous look to them.
"Tone down your voices there are people that actually preferred silence!" Tyrone stated full of irritably and his eyes bore to Diana like he loathed.
"Sorry Alpha." Marcel brother gets off the bed.
Tyrone strode away and the siblings went silent no one dared to speak until they can’t hear his footsteps. After making sure the coast is clear and he is not on the same floor as them Diana spoke first.
"Jerk." Diana cursed out loud.
"Woahhh! Did you just bad-mouth the Alpha?" Marcel heard it right and just wanted confirmation.
"Mini, did you finish eating yet?" Diana brushed off his brother's criticism.
"Yes Dee but I didn't have my shower yet." She sat on the bed.
"You can join me, come on." Diana offered her hand.
"That's my cue to leave, just make it fast while I'll do the beds." Marcel interrupted his sisters.
Diana and Minerva get in the shower and she started to bath his sister. They both love the hot water but since it's weekdays they can't stay long otherwise they will be late for school. Diana was washing Minerva’s hair when she suddenly speaks.
"Dee, if I'm also a werewolf why haven't I shifted yet?" She played with the bubbles.
"Because you need to wait until you turned 7." Diana rinsed her slowly.
"Is my fur will be like you and Marcel?" Her curious mind asked.
"Yup! And as soon as you start shifting, I will teach you a lot of things that only your werewolf can." Diana touched her cute button nose.
"Yes! Yes! Yes! I like that!" She wiggled her feet in the tub.
After a minute she was humming a song that their mother always sings to them when they were kids. This is not the first time that Diana heard her sister hum the song but it was a total shock to her when Minerva was a year old back then when she first did it. Minerva was able to memorize the tune the way their mother does it.
"Does it hurt when changing to wolf?" Her little voice can detect that she is frighten.
"A little, but you're a tough cookie Mini – don’t worry too much because Marci and I will be there to help you." Diana assured her.
"I wish Mom and Dad is here too." She sounded upset now.
"I wish that too but still you're lucky to have Axelia and Marco, they treated you like their own." She tried to cheer her sister up.
"Yeah I know but I'm afraid to the new Alpha." She played with the soap.
"Why did you say that?" Diana was shocked and thought if Tyrone already met her.
"He stopped us from having fun and I don't want him staring at you like you're a bad person." Minerva noticed that earlier.
"He is just maybe upset because we’re nosy but don’t worry I'm strong and I'll be here to protect you even from the almighty Alpha." Diana positioned her body like a Hulk.
Minerva giggled and after their endless talking they finally made it to the closet. Diana helped her on her choosing her dress and soon they head downstairs with their bags. Diana realized that it since he will be at the same school there is a big chance they will see each other again.
"At last you're both ready come on let's eat so we won't be late." Her brother greeted them from the table.
"Is the Alpha will be joining us?" Diana stopped walking for a while.
“He already left so it’s just us.” Luna Axelia stated.
“Oh I see.” Diana nods while proceeding to the table.
"Does he bother you that much?" Marcel helped Minerva on her chair while sending link to Diana.
"Not really but we certainly made him pissed this morning." Diana sat beside Minerva.
"He was right though we are a bit loud." Marcel walked to his chair and they started eating.
Diana kept fidgeting her nails because of anxiety and the expectation of seeing him. She didn't want to bump into him today or anytime of the day because it will only make it hard for her to avoid him.
“Why are you so nervous today?” Marcel can feel his sister’s emotion.
“Just that I will be reporting today, you know I’m not good at that.” Diana made an excuse.
“Don’t worry; you will do just fine besides Cha will be with you during the presentation. I believed you will both pass that with flying colors.” Marcel encouraged her.
“Thanks bro.” Diana felt guilty for that but that’s more acceptable than telling her brother about the ejection of her mate in front of her mate’s parents.
After eating four bowls of Cheerios and two sandwiches they are finally done. Werewolves have big appetite so it's really no big deal for them to eat a lot especially in the morning. They bid goodbye to Axelia and Marco and promised to be home after school. Marco and Minerva were both singing inside the car while Diana felt that somebody is following them. She let it go since she doesn't want Minerva to be scared and it could be just her imagination.
Ten minutes top they reached the school grounds and Marcel found a spot to park the car. The school was founded by Axelia and Marco and it was built only for werewolves. Minerva's building is two blocks away from Diana’s while Marcel is the closest to Minerva. They compromised that Marcel will take her while she will be the one picking her up after school since Diana’s class ends earlier than her brother. Diana walked to her locker and saw her best friend tapping the floor with folded arms looking bored.
"Hey bestie! Morning!" Diana greeted her cheerfully.
"I've been waiting for you for long, you need to hear this." Charissa pulled her arm.
"What is it?" Diana gets the books inside her locker.
"Guess who I saw flirting at the parking lot?" Cha is surely a gossip girl.
"Hmmm... I don't know and I'm not interested." Diana closed the locker.
"You will be because it's Tyrone and my dearest sister.” Her statement made Diana numbed.
'He is supposed to be with us not her!' Artemis grunted with jealously.
'Yeah I know but we got rejected.' Diana face hardened.
‘I am so pissed and in pain right now.’ Artemis stated.
‘Sorry for that Artemis, but that's what he wanted, so let’s leave him be.” Diana doesn’t know how to comfort her wolf.
"I'm sorry I didn't mean to upset you." Her friend apologized after seeing her reaction.
"It's okay Cha, and frankly I don't want to hear anything from him." Diana put up a strong expression.
Suddenly her brother's voice echoed from his back and Cha immediately hugs him and make out not only to save her from speaking further but also because she is his mate. She will have to thank her friend for doing that so her brother will not be able to remember what she said earlier.
"Ohh God! Break it up you too before I start spreading my early breakfast here." Diana stands between them.
"You're just jealous because I have a mate sis." Her brother teased.
"If I have one then it won't matter to you if we kiss in front of you too?" Diana smirked and Marcel realized the possibility of it.
"Oh no! Your mate won't have that privilege unless he got my approval." Her brother contradicts her words.
"Yeah right, as if I’ll have one. We better head to the class before the bell rings." Diana pointed to the wall clock.
"Right, I'll see you both at lunch." He kissed my forehead.
Diana chose that moment to leave the couple before they made out again. Diana is not against them having the PDA moment but doing it in front of her makes Diana puke.
