My Secret, My Bully, My Mates.
Chapter 0572

Mateo lunges at me and I counter, by twisting out of his way. He can't get a hold of me. I am going to play keep away for as long as possible. I want to see where he is injured since he won't tell me himself. I spin and push him from behind. He reaches back to try and grab one of my hands, but he misses. As the Beta he should have more range of motion than that. We keep at it for a while. He comes at me, but misses. This is not like him, so I stop. Most of our friends are engaged together. My Alphas are watching us closely though, always on guard when it comes to me. I know I will come to accept this eventually, but it still feels like they don't trust me to handle myself, even going up against my own brother. Who seems more likely to injure himself than me right now.

"Mateo, what's going on?" I ask moving close, speaking low. I don't want to make a big deal since it seems like he's hiding something.

"Nothing, I just haven't worked out this hard in a long time. You were right to bring everyone out here. We can't get behind in our training, like this."

"Okay, that was a plausible answer. Are you going to tell me the truth?" I cross my arms, not letting this go.

"That was the truth. I appear to be out of shape against my beast mode, magically enhanced Alpha blood sister."

I roll my eyes. "You know you have the same Alpha blood right? Like you and Jena are more than likely going to produce Alpha children as much as we are." I gesture to Cam, Oliver and Dakota. Mateo's face goes ghostly white.

"Can we hold off on the kids talk, please. I might actually throw up." He whispers and then steps closer. "You're only just about to be seventeen, which is way too young. And we still don't know if Jena can have kids. It's still a sore subject. The healers said it's highly likely, but she still gets in her head about it and I don't think she'll get over it until we actually have one. And I am not ready for any of that anyway. Especially after what happened to mom, or I guess what we thought happened to mom. That sh*t is scary." I smile and give him a hug, squeezing tight.

I whisper in his ear. "You would tell me if your injury was really bad right? I can't risk losing you in a fight because you didn't say anything, or risk other's safety either."

"It's not that kind of injury, Sky. I'm okay really. In a real fight I will give my all. Right now, I'm not going to push it, that's all."

"Will you tell me ever?" I questioned. I don't like the shady run around.

Just then Dakota wraps his arms around me and breathes in my ear. "It's the kind of injury I'm hoping to have later, Sweetness. Apparently, Jena likes it rough and your brother is learning to be submissive the hard way."

I look between the two of them for what was probably way too long and then my intelligence kicked in and my eyes went wide and my brother's grin spread across his face, along with an unashamed blush. "I'm good Sky, let's just leave it at that. You can get details from your friend. I don't think that's something you want me to share with you." He winks and heads over to Jena and plants a kiss on her neck, right where his mark is.

"I think we have indulged you for long enough tonight." Dakota grumbles. "Can we please take you home now?" He asks as he lifts me up in his arms, not really giving me a choice.

"I guess my answer is yes then." I giggle as Cam and Oliver follow us to the entrance to the arena, but we are met with my dad and Kyle.

"We have a problem." My dad grumbles, "And it can't wait."

"I might throat punch the next person that says that phrase." Cam says and Oliver and Dakota grumble their agreement.
