Love Times Four: My Stepbrothers Are All My Mates?
Jason’s P.O.V. Hunter gazes straight ahead as Pops and Papa are arguing and I realize that Papa and Hunter are both trying to make sense of it in their own way. “Princess, what do you think this might mean?” I ask her and she slowly turns to look at me. The look in her eyes tell me that she is still trying to put pieces together, but it seems as if something is not connecting in her mind. “What if Quinten never gave up his position? What if he realized something was off? What if Alpha Frank knows more then his Beta and Gamma think?” The words tumble out of her mouth and I have to admit that every question is a valid question. “Like June said yesterday, maybe Quinten let everyone believe he stepped down and maybe Alpha Frank was or is in on it. Maybe Alpha Frank felt something was wrong when he was offered his Mate.” Papa mumbles and for a moment we are all quiet as we let his words sink in. Before anyone of us can say a word there is a knock on the door and Hunter gets up to answer it. She opens the door for Alpha Frank and his parents and tells them to take as seat, while she walks back to her own seat. Justin is quick to sit down in it and pulls her onto his lap. Once they are seated Quinten turns his attention towards Hunter and asks her why she called them in here, she waits until we are quiet again before she starts talking. “Alpha Frank, when did you start to realize something was wrong with your chosen Mate and her Brothers?” she asks. We all stare at her as she asks her question and I honestly believe Alpha Frank is stunned by what she figured out. He tells her that it was after they had gotten home that he started to suspect something was off, but he had been unable to figure it out by himself and he had asked his Father for help. His Father had started to keep a close eye on them and when his youngest Brother in law had snapped over a small miscommunication between him and a Warrior, he had recognized a Cousin of his in him. A Cousin that was banished from the Pack after assaulting his Beta’s Sister. “Dad had asked me to describe my Mate’s Father to him and when I did he knew who her Father was. After he told me what her Father had done I wanted to kill them, but Dad told me he had a better idea and so far it is working.” He says. Jayce looks at him and tells him what he overheard and everyone can tell he had not seen that coming, that he had not expected them to go that far. Ella steps next to Hunter and holds her phone in front of her, “Jayce, be a sweetheart and call Elder Matthew to tell him what you overheard, maybe then we know what we can do to help Alpha Quinten.” As she speaks she doesn’t take her eyes off Quinten, he looks at her in confusion and I have to stifle a smile as I realize June had been correct. “How… how did you know?” He asks and Hunter tells him everything we had discussed yesterday and today.“Your Highness, you are a very smart young lady. Your Mate is going to be a lucky man with you by his side.” He compliments her and she giggles as she hides her face in Justin’s neck, who wraps her in his arms a little tighter. “Alpha Quinten, why didn’t you allow Aunt Sasha and Uncle Todd to visit their family?” Hunter asks and he looks from Sasha to Hunter and back again. Sasha introduces him to her family as Jayce walks back in to the room, holding the phone out towards Hunter. She takes it from him as she gets up from Justin’s lap and I chuckle at the pout on his face, but Hunter makes it up to him by kissing him on the lips. We only hear one side of the conversation and we patiently wait for Hunter to end the call, so we can find out what the Elders had to say. “Emma, can you get the books on conspiracies? I all ready know what I am allowed to do, but I would like to know exactly what it says in regards to this matter. When I confront them I want to know everything there is to know.” She says and Emma rushes out of the room with Ella on her tail.
