A Gold Alpha For A Silver Alpha

Moon-Colored Eyes Chapter 2



Sunlight streams through the windows and bothers my eyes. I try to roll over and return to my comfortable sleep, but the sound of how my siblings are waking up and doing their morning chores lets me know that I should get up too. Aloud knocking sounds at my door. Juliet, wake up, Mom wants us all to go down to the dining room for breakfast. I let out a sigh. Ym coming. with all the laziness in the world I pull the sheets away from my body and get up. I drag my feet to my own bathroom, (perks of being the only woman in this house besides mom). I take off my pajamas which consisted of shorts and a Jace n twin t-shirt along with my underwear and toss them into the laundry basket. I step into the shower and turn it on. A squeal escapes my lips as the stream of icy water hits me squarely in the back. My hand moves the knob and the water warms up. A sigh escapes my lips. Mmhmm, this is the life. Remembering my brother's words and knowing how my mom hates lateness I hurry to finish my shower. I was already cle from my bath last night anyway. I put on my clean underwear and a loose white dress with brown sandals. I let my hair dry naturally and no makeup. Later I would worry about getting dressed up, now I just wanted to be comfortable. I saw myself in the mirror and once again I was amazed at how much I looked like mom. Same hair color, same shade of eyes, only I was taller and had more chest and hips. And my skin wasn't as pale as hers. Besides everyone always claimed that I didn't convey the same coldness as she did. But I never saw my mother as a cold person, just serious. I open the door to my room and step out into the hallway as the door across the hall opens to reveal my twin. Jace has been sleeping a few steps away from me for as long as I can remember. Jackson and Julian, on the other hand, have their rooms down the hall, they said it was bad enough sharing everything as twins without having to share it with another pai I agreed with them on that. We were only two years apart, but it didn't feel like it, we were so alike and yet so completely different from each other. Like yin and yang. -It was time for you to leave Juliet, everyone is waiting for us in the dining room, I stayed waiting for you so it wouldn't lo too bad if you were late. I smiled at her and went over to give her a kiss on the cheek. I had the best twin in the world. “Thanks big guy, you're the best. 1 know baby, I know. He answers me in a nasal tone and we both laugh as we walk to the dining room. My good mood only improves when I see my whole family waiting for us. Happy birthday. They all tell us and get up to hug us, Dad is the first to hold me in his arms and then let my mother pass. -1 can't believe how big they are, where are those little brats that followed me everywhere as soon as they learned to wal Dad says with a nostalgic tone and I give him a sweet smile. “We are still here dad, only now we follow each other instead of you. I tell him while my older brother squeezes me and twiirls me around the place. julian is the last one to congratulate me but that doesn't make him any less enthusiastic. I really loved my family, and wh it was horrible at times to have been the only woman, deep in my heart I knew I would never trade any of my brothers fo sister. I would die without my useless ones. When we were done with the congratulations we all sat down and immediately the same Omegas came out to drop off breakfast. This time we all ate the same thing. Prepared eggs, bacon, some fruit, toast, coffee for everyone, and juice for me. We all started wolfing down the food. We really had to exercise so much that we always had a voracious appetite, besides the fact that we werewolves had a much more developed metabolism and expended much more energy, so we had to get back somehow. -Are you excited about tonight? Dad asked us and we all answered in the affirmative. I want us to transform already. I say and Jace nods in agreement with me. Ym dying to finally announce my engagement to Bella, so I don't have to put up with another idiot after my wife. Julian says with a growl, mom rolls her eyes for being so territorial but my dad gives him a proud look, he is identical with mom “You were very lucky to find your mate on the day of your transformation and that he was in our pack. It took me almost millennium to find your father. My mother comments while giving a reproachful look to my father who only shrugs his shoulders innocently. -1 always thought Bella would end up being Jackson's mate, the two of them were so close growing up. Julian grunts at m, twin's comment but everyone at the table nods in agreement. Bella was older than my older brothers by almost a year. And they grew up together, the three of them always getting intc all sorts of mischief and craziness while Dad's other Beta daughter, Anastasia who was two years younger than me, was much quieter. The point is that for as long as I can remember Bella and Jackson were as thick as thieves, they were alway together. And everyone in the herd was secretly betting that they would end up being mates. So it came as a huge surprise that in the end she was Julian's mate, who had been in love with her all through his teenage years but had never dared to say anything. But when they were together I could see the love in their eyes, they loved each other in the same way my parents did. An that was the important thing, I wanted a love like that. Thank the moon she didn't give me a mate as crazy as Bella, I couldn't spend more than a few days by her side before I lost my mind. Jackson said and Julian smacked him on the back of the head. -Au, I was kidding man, I love my best friend, but you have to admit she’s a difficult woman. That's why it's great that she your partner, you're so boring you need to relax from time to time, you're perfect for each other. I for one am happy to be announced as the heir, it's about time everyone knew who's going to be in charge around here-. My brother smiles and food flies from all directions and crashes into different parts of his body. just kidding, this family has no sense of humor. He mumbles as he cleans himself. -How was her first transformation? I ask curious and my parents turn to look at me and make a grimace. -1 don't want to scare you honey, you better finish your breakfast, your mom is almost finished and you both have to go t get ready, even if you are already totally beautiful like this. Dad says and we both smile. I've worn more dresses these twenty years than in all my past centuries. Mom comments and she sounds a little irritate she really wasn't a girly person, which made me wonder where the hell did I come from, because I loved to dress up and look pretty. So did Jackson. ~You could wear a bin bag if you wanted to and no one would dare say a negative comment about your looks love, so I don't know what you're saying. Mom smiles pleased with dad's words, she loves being scared of him. - wouldn't dare wear something like that and ruin such an important event. She says and she and my dad laugh at what 'm sure is another one of her private jokes. My brothers continue talking while I finish my breakfast, before I can tell mom to finish she stands up and says goodbye t everyone as she signals me to leave. Mom is always attentive to everything, you can't lie to her or hide anything, she was incredibly irritating. But we were all weak in the face of her piercing silver gaze, and even though my eyes were the same color I had never managed to imitat her. And I didn't think I ever could, that unique look of hers. We both left the house and got into a van. Dannia drives it and a couple of wolves ride behind us in another car for our safety. I don't understand what for. My mother was the best warrior on the entire continent if not the world, and the strongest pureblood Alpha. Never, in my almost eighteen years of life, had anyone been stupid enough to seriously confront her. I myself was witness to the beatings she gave my dad, (who was a titan at fighting), without even batting an eyelid. Dad never complained that his mate was more skilled than him in fighting, indeed, he was proud to say that he was the only wolf on Earth with a partner as strong and beautiful as Mom was. How beautiful love was. Mom and I chatted about trivia all the way to the nearest human town, as the pack was in the middle of the hidden fores loved these mother/daughter moments. Since I usually spent more time with dad, who was more receptive to my hyperactive personality. Or maybe it was simply that I was his only daughter so he had more patience for me than the others. still talking, we finally arrived at the beauty salon where we would get our hair done. Everywhere we went appreciative glances were directed at our persons. Thanks to our slow aging, Mom and I could easily pass for sisters because of our strong resemblance. Which made the men in the family snarl every time we went out together and some male approache us. The stylists were human, but they were kind and put a lot of effort into making us look perfect when mom explained that was for a very important party where we were celebrating my eighteenth birthday. We sat there for hours. But the result was totally worth it. Mom wore her straight hair in an elegant high ponytail that left her face and neck in full view. Her eyes were made up in shades of honey and her lips were gold. Which made her pale skin look brighter. I knew she had chosen those colors because of my father. I on the other hand had my long hair in beautiful waves that fell to my hips. Sparkles scattered in it, every time I shook m shiny head they shot everywhere, the contrast with my black hair made it look like a starry night. My eyes had black and navy blue shadows, which enhanced the clarity of my silver eyes making them look almost like my mother's eyes. And las my lips were a neutral shade of pink, so that my eyes would get all the attention, said the boy who groomed me. I felt completely beautiful, and I knew mom was the same way too. When we left the place we received twice as many sta as at the beginning. Both of us along with Dannia and the guards ate at a restaurant in the mall to make time before returning to the mansior The sun was starting to set when we finally returned. Mom gave me a kiss on the cheek and said she had to check a few things before getting dressed but to hurry up and do i myself because the guests would be arriving any minute. I didn’t run into anyone but several puppies and servants who were hurrying to get everything ready. They all congratulat me as I passed and I thanked them with a smile. I made it to my room without a hitch. I heard my brothers getting ready I their rooms, and when I opened my door I could see my dress with the heels I was going to wear on the bed. I changed my underwear to very thin lingerie so it wouldn't show. But in the end I couldn't wear a bra. My dress was so long that it dragged several inches even with the chunky heels that made me gain about twelve inches ir height. The shoes were a full-blown death trap but they made me feel like a model. The dress was strapless with a round neckline that showed my collarbones and just the beginnings of my breasts, it was totally tight to my waist and then fell the smooth floor. Now, it had a slit on the left side that showed almost all of my leg. It was bright white with two black lin on the side about four fingers thick. I knew the males in the family would have a heart attack when they saw so much exposed skin. But it was enough for me. This was my night and I was going to enjoy it to the fullest. I was admiring myself in the full-length mirror I had on one of my walls when a knock on the door distracted me. Come in. I say and my mother enters the room. My mouth opens so wide I think my chin will touch the floor. By the Goddess Selen if I thought my father would have a heart attack in my dress I'm sure he will die in my mother’s dress. Mom looked gorgeous and sexy in a black dress. Shiny from the top and a multi-layered translucent skirt from waist to floor. It also showed off her left leg but it was the neckline that stole all the attention, it was a strappy dress with straps across the back that were the only thing covering her. From the front, a deep V showed her neck, collarbones and half of her chest. Her heels were gold and matched her makeup. Her eyes scanned me and she gave me a smile that lit up the whole place. You look beautiful my girl. She praised me but I shook my head. Ym afraid my dad is going to have to keep an eye on you if he doesn’t want some other Alpha to steal you. I tell her amused and she just laughs lightly while she hugs me. No little girl, your father knows that there is no one else in my life but him. It's you he's going to drive crazy all night lon scaring everyone who comes near you. And not only him, your brothers also look more like guard dogs than wolves. Now it was my turn to laugh, my mom was so right. I would need all my patience to survive the evening. We will both be the most beautiful of the night. I say haughtily and she nods agreeing with me. Excuse me... My father's voice is heard and he enters with my brothers. The four of them are dressed in elegant suits that look amazin on them and make them look incredibly handsome. Dad had a black suit with a white shirt and tie. Jackson had a pearl gray suit with a dark blue shirt and no tie or bow tie. Julian wore a navy blue suit with a white shirt and a tie in the same shade as the suit. Jace, my twin was wearing a white suit like my dress, a black shirt open at the first few buttons, with a handkerchief in the top left pocket. They were all shaved and combed, and all four at the same time stopped in the middle of my room, looked me and my mother up and down, and began to growl, cursing under their breath. Neither of you are going down like that. My father scowled, my brothers nodded in agreement, and we rolled our eyes. Jason, if you think you're going to make me or your daughter change our clothes, you're out of your mind. Rae... Dad growls again but she gives him a look that shuts him up. 1 warn you that I don't want to hear a word that isn't a compliment to Juliet or me if you don't want to know me, and tha goes for the three of you too. -But mother! They whine like little children. -It's an order, now come on, everyone is waiting for us and we don’t want them to think we are bad hosts. Jace you're goir to ride on my arm behind Jason and Juliet. Jackson and Julian last, any doubts? They all mutter something under their breath but do as mom orders. Dad comes over and holds out his arm, I intertwine with mine and give him a bright smile that makes his expression relax. You look beautiful princess, there are no more stunning women than you and your mother tonight” he says. He gives me a kiss on the cheek which I return, so in caravan and in my mother’s order we leave the room. The only soun in the hallways my mother’s heels and mine. The party was taking place in the big music room of the mansion, my dad had told me that before my brothers were born they had rebuilt the whole mansion expanding it, as a gift for the birth of the first twins. The space was wide open, and the symphony sounded closer and closer along with the voices of the guests. My legs suddenly trembled and I felt my father getting nervous too. But he still gave me a warm smile to give me courage. We stopped for a moment before we went through the big archway. I sighed deeply and put on the brightest smile I had. I was ready for anything. And then we resumed our march and all attention fell on us. The music stopped and the wolves bowed their heads in respect. We were the strongest wolves and the ones leading the others. There was no one and nothing to make me bow my head. But the night was still very long, and anything could happen at a party like that.
