**Kai's View**

I kiss her with a new found passion. My arms wrapped around her warm body. Her touch soft on mine, she's so delicate in my arms. Like an injured baby bird, lying in my hands helpless to my strength. I'm scared I may hurt her. I have to control myself, I can't slip up, not now. The taste of her lips are making my head spin.

They taste like strawberries and lake water. On her, it's as effective as a love potion. I never thought I'd "fall in love". But the moment I saw her... I just knew. I don't want to leave her, I don't want to break her heart. I'm not planning on leaving her. I want to protect her from everything. Be there for her when she falls. But I'm not sure what she said about me being like her father, being a leader, was right.

I'm not a leader, I'm just friends with everyone. We already listen to each other, if Ollie was in my position he would. I did what needed to be done, someone had to do it. She would freeze to death. Am I really a leader? Does she see me like that? 

My thoughts scatter when her leg brushes up against my calf. My heart explodes wanting to taste every bit of her. I kiss harder, my hands in her hair. I grip her hair mashing my mouth against her. A wolfish growl escapes my lips and I feel my arms tensing. My movements becoming more rough and animal like. She remains soft and bird-like. 

My eyes are shut, I don't want this to end. And I think she doesn't either. I can hear her rapid heart beating, I feel it in her chest too. She's so innocent, and beautiful. She's so kind to everyone and forgiving. I would have never spoken to Haven again if she were my friend. My hands find her bare back and I trace my fingers up her spine. 

I feel goosebumps appearing from my touch. My mouth slightly misses her so I kiss the side of my lips. Every part of me wants even more. More, more, more, mo-

"WHOA."

My body turns to stone. Panic. I shoot up whipping around to find Ollie standing in the doorway. His eyes giant and his jaw dropped. My mouth hangs out, her taste lingers in my mouth. I blink a couple times unable to speak. Brook shoots up again as well with wide eyes. My heart stutters a bit. He caught us. OH GOD HE CAUGHT US.

"I-It's not w-what you think!" I sputter waving my hands at him. 

He stares at us blankly for a moment. He knows the rules. I know them too. We aren't supposed to lay a finger on Brook. Alpha made that very clear. 

"Ollie it's okay!" Brook stammers sliding off the bed, still trembling. Ollie looks between us a couple times still dumbstruck. I jump off the bed, "Ollie I swear on my life we didn't do anything! I swear, I swear-"

I cut myself off realizing Ollie's mouth has turned up into a sly smile. Mischief gleams in his eyes, he smirks smugly. He looks down the hallway then back at us. He shoves his hands in the pockets, "Oh Alpha!" he sings. 

My heart stops.

"Look what I found!" Then he winks at us before bolting down the hallway.

NO.

I bolt forward using every bit of my double dominant strength. NO NO NO PLEASE OLLIE NO!!! NOT ALPHA! ANYTHING BUT ALPHA! I rush past the doorway slamming into the wall creating a large dent, shattering the wall to pieces. The house walls tremble. I push myself off the wall and race down the hall, narrowing skidding around the corner.

"NO! OLLIE STOP!" I scream with giant eyes. I run into the living room, panicking. I look around wildly to make out Ollie laughing hysterically on the couch. Milo stands by the curtain while Ezra leans against the wall coolly. I scan the room quickly for Alpha, praying with all my heart he didn't hear him.

Then I realize Ollie was joking. 

I growl darkly storming over to the couch, "OLLIE!!" I rage.

Ollie laughs uncontrollable, arching his back gasping for breath, "Oh my God I got you! I got you so good!"

I glower down at him, "You scared me!" I scold and smack his leg, hard. He yelps shortly but continues to laugh.

"What... did you do?" Milo asks edgily.

"OH! They were kissing up a storm!" Ollie howls with laughter kicking his legs. I give him a mortified look, "Ollie!" I hiss, my face burning from embarrassment.

Milo's jaw drops, "No way," he says stunned. I groan loudly turning to them, "I swear I didn't do anything!"

My eyes fall on Ezra. He stares at me with wide eyes. Emotion on Ezra is rare, it also is a bit terrifying because that means something big happened. And right now, it's the last thing I need. 

"Ezra!" Ollie laughs loudly, "Y-You owe me a thousand dollars! He kissed her before Saturday! I was right!! WOO!!! I WAS RIGHT!!"

Ezra continues to stare with bewildered eyes. Milo rubs his eyes, "Whoa, you really did it."

"I didn't know you had it in you! I thought you were going to be sidestepping for months!" Ollie laughs and then stands up, bending over with laughter. 

"You idiots!" I groan loudly running a hand through my hair frustrated with them. But not surprised they were betting. Ezra, Ollie, and I bet on Grace and Milo's relationship all the time. My face still burns because Ollie is laughing at me. I can't believe he caught us.

"Wow," Milo says looking at me, "so... how are you telling Alpha?"

Another problem I have to face. 

I shake my head, holding my face in my hands, "I have no idea," I mumble through my hands.

"Y-You kissed her," Ezra whispers stunned. I don't think I've ever heard him stutter before. Or sound so... shocked.

"This is great!" Ollie cheers, finally recovering from his laughing fit, "They look good together!"

I look over at Ezra to find him staring at the ground with a masked expression, "Yeah."

Something twinges in my heart, does he like Brook? A sense of protective washes over me, I won't let him like her. But then I remind myself that Ezra doesn't like anyone. Right? Then I hear soft footsteps. I whip around to find Brook standing there. Oh shoot, I left her in the room. My eyes travel to my shoulder that's now covered with wall plaster and dust. Oops. Guess I should tell Mom we came to the house... Great.

"How much did you hear?" I ask grimacing. 

She looks at everyone and then back at me, "You guys were a bit loud..." she blushes as she raises her shoulders. Looking so innocent. I can't help but sigh softly at the sight.

"OH HE'S GOT IT BAD!" Ollie hollers and then dog whistles loudly.

"Shhh!" Milo warns him looking around nervously, "Neighbors remember!"

Ollie bursts out laughing again ignoring Milo's protests. 

I don't know what to say. Brook doesn't say anything either. I hope it doesn't become awkward... Ollie is known for being a bit over dramatic, he loves to joke around. I do too but now it's towards me. I know Milo will be chill about it, hoping I'll be chill when he finally asks Grace out. I won't. Making me less mad at Ollie, understanding what he feels. Ezra though... I can never tell with him...

Then I hear a car pulling into the driveway. We all tense, hearing the sound. Milo peeks slightly through the curtain. Then he leaps away with giant eyes, "HIDE!" he whisper screams and then bolts towards the kitchen.

"What?!" I whisper panicking. We all react and bolt towards the kitchen. I leap through the doorway only to get stuck between Ezra. 

He hisses in pain as he tries to jerk forward. I wince as he tries crushing me against the wall. I hit him quickly, "MOVE!" I whisper twisting my body to get through.

"Hurry!" Brook panics from behind us. I feel her smacking my back and trying to push me forward. I finally burst forward only to fall on a chair. I wince in pain when my cheek hits the edges. The chair chatters to the ground and I feel my cheek bruising. Ezra flies past me like the devil was chasing him. I scramble to my feet and race down the hallway. Brook follows close behind me. 

I rush inside my parent's room whipping open the closet, careful not to rip it off the hinges. I usher Brook inside who is followed by Ezra. We rush inside and I get a face full of clothes. The hangers clatter together as we shove ourselves deeper into the closet. Brook disappears in the corner covering herself with clothes on the hangers. Ezra takes the other side disappearing from sight. Leaving me stuck in the middle. 

I look down quickly to find mountains of clothes. I drop to my knees and start burrowing myself under it. I throw clothes on top of me but I still feel exposed. I hunker down trying to lay flat on the ground. My feet touch the wall, brushing against Brook's. 

"Guys help me cover up!" I whisper fiercely. Then I feel clothes being thrown over me, followed by hangers being ripped off the pole. 

"Hurry," I urge feeling my heart pounding. 

Then I hear the bedroom door open. Then I hear running footsteps, the closet door opens. Then someone steps on my back. I bite back a cry gritting my teeth. 

"Ollie! Get out of here! You're stepping on Kai!" Ezra says sharply. I wince arching my back up trying to prove his point.

"Get off," I whisper gruffly.

"There's no hiding spots! Kai it's your sister!" Ollie whispers back. He shuts the closet door and steps on my leg. I move it sharply getting him off.

"Why would she be home?" I ask confused, she has school doesn't she?

"I don't know, but Milo said it was her car," Ollie replies. I hear the hangers moving around and then a soft groan.

"Ow," Brook whispers. I feel myself getting upset with Ollie, which never happens. What happened to me? Why am I acting this way? Ollie is my best friend, I can't get mad at him.

"Oh sorry Brook! I didn't know you were in here too," Ollie whispers quickly sounding very guilty. 

"Hey Kai scoot over, you both can lay on the ground," Ezra whispers through the clothes sounding muffled. If it weren't for my werewolf ears I wouldn't have heard him. 

"Yeah good idea," Ollie whispers sounding sarcastic, "with a broken shoulder that would work perfectly!"

"How about Ezra you switch with Ollie," I suggest burying my face into the carpet. It's so obvious guys. 

"Oh," Ezra says stunned. Then I hear moving around and I feel Ezra lay down next to me. He buries himself under the clothes. I feel clothes being thrown over us and we both fall still. Silence fills the house. I wonder where Milo went, I hope he's hidden... What is my sister doing here anyways? Then the front door opens. I hold my breath hoping she doesn't come in here and find us. What excuse would make up for us hiding in the closet?

As far as she knows, I'm at Ollie and Milo's house for a sleepover and hanging out because I'm homeschooled. She will question Brook's presence, and no doubt tell Mom and Dad. She has no clue we are werewolves. I'm glad she doesn't, she can be a brat. But I love her anyways. 

"I can't believe we're doing this," Layla says from the living room. He listens harder confused who she's talking too. Another set footsteps appear, heavy. 

"Me either," a man's voice says. I stiffen with furious eyes, she's skipping school... to be alone in the house... with GUY. How could she be so stupid! I mean really-. Oh. 

"Did you know about this?" Ezra whispers to me.

I shake my head slightly, "No, I don't recognize the voice."

"That's Kyle, he's in her grade. Senior right?" Brook whispers, I hear her feet shuffling around.

"Yeah," I answer quietly.

"He dates a lot of girls, you said Layla does too?" she asks me.

"Yes, she does," I nod understanding why they would end up together. But I still don't like it. Brook and I know each other, sort of. But I feel it, I'm not sure if she does either. My father told me that the moment he saw Mom he knew he would marry her. I feel the same way. Mom said she had no idea. Does Brook think that? 

"Shh I wanna listen," Ollie says quietly. We all fall silent eavesdropping on Kyle and Layla. 

"Come on, let's go to my room," Layla says sounding high. Or she's madly in love with this guy. 

I hear more footsteps and her soft giggling. It makes me sick to think she's with this guy. He probably doesn't even care about her. Though she probably doesn't care for him either. But she's always secretly fallen for them, without ever showing it. I can hear her mumbling their name in the middle of the night. Werewolf ears are good for everything.

I hear them walk into her room that's next to this one. Then the door shuts, but it does nothing to stop us from hearing. I hear the bed squeak along with the blankets being thrown off. I stiffen feeling anger burn inside of me. Hands off my sister you creep. 

"Kai," Ezra whispers, shaking me slightly, "stop that or you'll transform."

I hadn't realized I was shaking. I had realized my body was heating up to match wolf temperature. Not that I wasn't already really hot. I take deep breaths closing my eyes trying to calm down. I'm surprised I didn't change while I was with Brook. 

"Hey look at me," Ollie whispers and peeks out from the curtain of clothes. I raise my head looking back at him curiously. He purses his lips and then turns around. Then I see his hands rubbing his arms, one more resistant, but it looks like he's making out in the corner. He moans softly and moves his hips around in a mocking way. Brook stifles a laugh, "Oh my gosh Ollie."

I roll my eyes smirking, "You idiot."

Ezra pokes his head out from under the clothes looking back at him. He smiles smugly watching him clearly amused. 

Then I hear thumping from the other side of the wall. I feel the familiar anger wash over me wanting to tear that guy's eyes out. I'll take his mouth and burn them with fire if I have to. 

Ollie pauses and then moans dramatically, "Oh lovely," he says in a very bad French accent. I can't help but smile again, Ollie can always cheer me up. And I cheer him up. We pretty much are the jokers of the deck of cards our friend group is. Ezra is like an ace. Milo is more like a jack. We are wild cards. And Brook of course is the queen. My queen.

"Oh hey!" Brook pipes up sounding a bit nervous. I look forward at her with interested eyes. She is poking her head out, she pauses for a second like she's thinking.

"Uhhh..." she trails off. Then she brightens. I don't think I've ever seen that before. Her beautiful blue eyes lighting up like that. She turns around and starts copying Ollie, except she does it with more flair, in my opinion.

"Oh!" she gasps, letting her shoulders dip side to side, "so scandalous mister!" she says in a better French accent. I cover my mouth trying so hard not to laugh loudly. Ollie chuckles softly also covering his mouth. Ezra studies her for a second. Then a slow grin appears on his face, "Oh you naughty girl," he says in his perfect French accent.

Brook giggles turning around blushing fiercely. 

"Sit down," I say beckoning her to sit down. Slowly, she sinks to the floor leaning against the wall. Her knees up and her arms wrapped around them. I smirk sitting up, brushing off clothes. I scoot back and sit next to her, knowing Layla won't come in here. My arm brushes against her's, her scent is almost intoxicating for me.

"Oooo it's about to go down in here!" Ollie whispers, I can hear his smile. He sinks down to the floor leaning against the wall watching us. Ezra sits up and scoots next to him. 

"In the closet?" Ezra questions coolly raising an eyebrow.

"In closet," Ollie repeats confidently.

Brook stifles a laugh blushing again. I roll my eyes putting my arm around her smoothly, "Well maybe that's how we like it."

Brook gasps with wide eyes, she blushes even deeper with a slight smile at her perfect lips. Ollie stifles a laugh, "Dude, seriously?"

Ezra shakes his head, "No you can't, there's not enough room. Idiots. You know nothing of space."

I sit up straighter puffing out my chest, "Try me."

"Oh Kai," Brook moans playfully, she lightly punches my arm, "come on we don't have to-"

I hear a loud crash from the other room. We all freeze and listen carefully. I hear a soft groan followed by someone getting up.

"Ow," Layla moans.

"Sorry, I didn't know we were that close-"

Ezra bursts out laughing. We all panic and quickly shush him loudly. Ollie slaps his hand over his mouth, Ezra does the same. I find myself leaning forward with my arms out waving at him trying to shut him up. Man Ezra can laugh! But wrong time dude. We all fall silent with wide eyes. Ezra still is having a fit of laughter, his hands over his mouth and eyes closed. His shoulders shake and he bows his head down.

Then I hear Layla talking to Kyle about when they should go back. I let out a relieved sigh and slowly lower my hands. Ezra continues to laugh silently seeming unable to stop. Then the closet creaks open. We freeze and Ezra falls silent. We look up fearfully. But why can I still hear Layla and Kyle-?

"Guys?" a breathy whisper from outside.

We all relax once again.

"Milo?" Ollie whispers. The closet opens more revealing Milo standing on the other side. He glances nervously over his shoulder, "Can I come in?"

"Sure," I say gesturing to the closet. He nods and slips inside shutting the door behind him. The darkness envelops us once again, but I can see lines of light coming through shining on our faces. He sits down in the middle, against the wall. He studies us for a moment, "So... you all went in here?"

"Yep, and Ezra almost got us caught by laughing! Can you believe it?" Ollie says smirking, still not removing his hands from Ezra's mouth. Ezra rolls his eyes and pushes them off.

"I did not," he argues giving us a look.

I smirk, "You so did."

"Idiots," Ezra mumbles in a French accent. He can't seem to whisper without using it. 

"So where were you?" Brook asks curiously.

"Under the bed, I heard you guys in here so I kinda assumed you all were in there," he explains shrugging. 

"Then you must have heard our conversation," I say brightening, I turn to Brook slowly, "you wanna show him your... scandalous side?" I joke grinning slyly.

She rolls her eyes, "You wish," she says in a sassy voice.

We all stifle a laugh, biting our lips trying to hold back. We start snickering softly through tight throats trying so hard not to laugh. We may be hidden but we're still cracking jokes. Just the way I like it.

"Should we tell your parents they were here?" Brook asks glancing over at me.

I think about it, "They would be fine if they knew we were here... yeah. I think I will tell them," I say smirking just imaging the look on their faces when they hear Layla was here with a guy. Thinking they were alone. But then again, how would they explain how they know? Lie and say we have security cameras? Eh whatever. 

"Tickle tickle," Ollie says in a funny voice reaching towards Milo. Milo stiffens and quickly scoots back towards us. He slams into my knees with panicked eyes, "No Ollie! Don't! You know what happens when I laugh!"

"Exactly!" Ollie grins with a devilish smile.

Ollie leans forward trying to reach even more. Milo presses himself against my knees, glancing over his shoulder with a panicked look.

"Help!" he pleads. Brook looks between the brothers seeming unsure what to do. I begin to feel my lips pulling up making a sly smile. My hands slowly raise, careful not to touch Milo, yet. Then I attack. Milo slaps his hands over his mouth muffling his scream and laughter. I tickle him from behind, getting his stomach which is his weakness. 

"Yeah! Go Kai!" Ollie cheers quietly, pumping a fist in the air. I grin tickling him as hard as I can. Milo gasps from under his hands, curling up in a ball. He twists quickly trying to escape but he can't. 

"Get him!" I whisper meeting Ollie and Ezra's gaze. Ollie crawls forward, dodging one of Milo's legs. He starts tickling in the same spot I am and Milo struggles even more. His shoulders shaking and his face turning red from laughing so hard. He squeaks and almost lets out his laughter. 

"Guys..." Brook says edgily, "we have to be quiet."

"It's fine! Don't worry, if Layla and Kyle are doing what I think they're doing, they won't hear a train go by," I reassure her, flashing her a Cheshire smile. 

Milo squeaks again twisting quickly trying to get out of my iron grip. Ezra rolls his eyes and shrugs, "As long as they won't hear us..."

Ezra lunges forward and grabs Milo's kicking legs, pins them down, sits on them, and attacks. I grin and start tickling his neck. Milo's shoulders shoot up and he tries to crush my fingers with his head. Ollie comes to his side and starts tickling Milo's armpits. Brook stifles a laugh as she watches us, not joining in.

"Come on," I encourage her as I tickle harder. Milo starts snorting, gasping for breath. I feel my grin grow wider because that's the reaction I wanted. Milo's laugh is hilarious! This is just the beginning of it. What happens is that he'll laugh normally for a while. Then he'll start squeaking. Then he snorts. And then the mother of all laughs. It's horribly adorable and funny.

He'll sound like a hiccuping baby mixed with the snorting along with the meowing of a kitten. It's the best sound you'll ever hear. He can hardly breathe now, I start to hear it begin. Brook sighs watching him with sympathy, "Oh Milo, guys he looks like he can't breathe."

"That's the point! We want to hear his laugh when he reaches that point," I explain smiling at her. Ezra and Ollie nod in agreement continuing to tickle him. Then it begins. I choke on my laughter leaning back quickly throwing my hands up. There's no stopping it from here. Ollie and Ezra back off watching him with humorous eyes.

There's nothing Milo can do to stop it from this point, he'll just keep laughing like this for thirty minutes. Milo gasps loudly, his hands down. His face is beet red, almost purple from lack of oxygen.

"You," he gasp, "will pay-pfft," he starts doing the laugh interrupting himself. He falls back on the wall laughing trying to keep quiet. He clutches his stomach unable to stop laughing. It's a quiet one so we're safe. 

The hiccuping baby, snort, meowing kitten laugh begins.

Brook gasps slapping her hands over her mouth with giant eyes, "No way!"

Ollie, Ezra, and I start laughing at the laugh again. I feel very proud of myself for this. Milo shakes his head, bowing it forward. When he inhales the meowing sound appears. Brook bursts out laughing, with a covered mouth.

Milo continues laughing and rolls onto the ground, "I hate you," he manages to choke out before interrupted again.

"It's so funny, you have to admit it," I say chuckling watching Milo struggle to stop laughing. Meow. I stifle a laugh, unable to stop smiling. Brook starts laughing harder and we soon end up join her. Milo's laugh is just plain ridiculous! I laugh so hard I lean on Brook. I put my arm around her again pulling her close to me. Ezra leans against the wall laughing quietly watching Milo desperately trying to shove clothes in his face to muffle the sound.

Ollie is silently laughing laying on the ground, no sound comes but his mouth is open and eyes are closed. 

Meow.

I break down shaking my head feeling my stomach tighten, it's almost painful now. Brook giggles putting her head on my shoulder, leaning on me. I can't help but feel proud of myself. I did something I never thought I'd have the guts to do. I said I loved her. Kissing girls is just normal but to really love someone... it's more terrifying than anything I've faced before.

I continue to listen to my sister and that guy Kyle in her room. They are so busted tonight. But I won't tell them about Brook. That is our secret. We are like a mini pack, apparently Brook thinks I'm the alpha. Am I seriously a leader? No, they're just my friends. It's not like that. 

I wonder what it'll be like after this. What we'll do together, if things will be any different. Will she want more from me? I'm not sure if I can give more... I've never dated a girl like this before. Yes I've had my fair share of girls but none of them ever mattered to me. Not like Brook does. I hope I don't mess this up...

Then Brook smiles up at me. Her pale skin is flawless, her face slightly narrow and void of any makeup. She's beautiful. I'll do my best to keep her safe, I'll protect her from anything. I am bitterly reminded of her nightmare she had. I killed someone to protect her. Would I do that? Maybe if the situation was right... Maybe I won't kill them, just severely injure and amputate something. Depends. 

Is that a good thing?

I shake off those dark thoughts convincing myself that no one will hurt her. She's Brook. Why would anyone want to hurt her? 

I pet her hair down and I kiss her head softly. She cuddles close to me continuing to laugh at Milo. Milo, who is mercilessly forced to laugh, buries his face in the floor. Ezra starts trying to mock his laugh but fails miserably. I laugh at both of them dismissing all my dark thoughts. I shut it all out, I want to have fun now. Nothing else.

Have fun with the guys and Brook, hidden in my parent's closet. Laughing our heads off but being quiet because my sister is. I'm glad I'm different, no human has the chance to do this. Only us. Our little pack.
