Broken Mates
Chapter 34

wanted to sit with his new uncle. He just kept getting new uncles and he couldn't be more happier for that.

"You're lost in deep thought again" Tris said as he observe his friend through the rearview, bringing Jake out of his thoughts. Jake looked at the rearview, looking at Tristan with an apologetic look. Tristan was the one driving while he and Alan sat at the back. The kid "Yes uncle Jake. How can you be lost in a thought when you have a cute me seated beside you?" Alan said with pouty lips. A smile broke on Jake's face and he looked at Alan. The kid was just so funny, "I'm sorry dear. I won't do it again" "Better" Alan replied. Jake moved close and begun tickling him.

Making Alan laugh, yelling 'stop' through his laughter but Jake didn't stop. Jake and Tristan were also laughing. Enjoying themselves.

Alan's laughter was like an antidote and a flu. A laughter from him and you will feel better and a laughter from him, and you will have no choice but to laugh along.

Reaching Alan's school, they dropped him off. Saying goodbyes but the kid had other thoughts. He didn't want to go to school anymore. Spending time with uncle Jake was too fun and so he didn't want to go anymore. He pouted, sulk and acted stubborn, refusing to get out.

However, he did get out. And he only did that when Tristan promised to take him to see his uncle Even who was currently locked up because he wasn't feeling good.

Though he was the one who locked himself up.

Alan missed him. He wanted to see him, and so he agreed to go to school.

After he finally left saying his goodbyes to his uncle Jake and his dad, Tristan waited until Alan entered the school then he drove off.

It wasn't like he didn't trust Alan and thought he would skip school or anything. He trusted his son, and he was too young to skip school. Where would he go if he really did?

Tristan only waits for the few minutes in case Alan comes back with a problem or complaints.

*******

This time, Roy didn't drink. He didn't need courage from alcohol to come pay his brother a visit.

Not anymore.

Roy stood behind the door to his brother's room. This was his brother's house he bought. He bought for he and his mate. It was a three bedroom house with everything.

And although he had his own house, he still stayed at the mansion. Saying it was boring living alone. Roy recalled how his brother said those words with pouty lips. He was so cute back then.

His brother was the oldest but he wasn't born an alpha, he was a beta. And he, the second born was the alpha. They had issues when it came to Even.

People always made fun of him, insulted him, bullied him for being born a beta while his youngest brother was born an alpha. And from then on, Even always thought himself as an alpha and he acted like one, even going as far as hiding his beta scent. No one even suspected anything, besides the few people back home.

Even their own parents despised 'Even' and refused to call him son, just because he was the first born, born as a beta.

What would have happened if his brother was born omega? He didn't even want to think about it.

But not once, not once did his brother hate him or despised him. Not once did he treat him bad. And he even consoled him (Roy) while he was blaming himself for his brother's hard life. Even always treated him nicely, with love. He cared about him and never said harsh words to him. His brother loved him unconditionally.

Roy had his parent's love but he didn't feel warm and safe like he felt in his brother's love. He felt really loved when it came to his brother.

His parents were rich and very important people in society. And because they had to protect their reputations always, they hated Even so much for being the first born, born as a beta. So much that they tried to push the responsibilities on him. They used to make him act like the first born at parties, balls and other functions.

He did act like one when Even convinced him to, but he couldn't do it anymore as time went on and so he kidnapped his brother and ran away.

Yep! Roy drugged his brother, who blacked out right away, got a car and brought him to this town, 'Moonlight Wolf Pack'. It was a good thing the alpha was accepting and accepted Even. Then he left town.

He remembered how his brother called him, panicking, worried to death, asking him where he was, if he was alright. If he was eating well, if he was sleeping well, if he even had a place to stay. Rambling none stop.

He told his brother he didn't have to worry and that he was okay. Even wasn't convinced back then, but he said nothing else and made him promise to call him everyday and visit him occasionally. Roy smiled, feeling giddy inside and then he answered, "Fine" from then on, he acted on his promise.

He also promised himself to protect Even always. And when he learnt about this sickness, his promise to protect Even seemed to be a joke. Because he couldn't do anything, and watched his brother suffer.

Just like the one time he watched his brother suffer in pain, yell with so much pain while he stayed in his room and his parents attend to him.

He didn't know what was happening then and he never found out. He only found out how helpless he was when his sweet brother was suffering and that was the first time the 6year old Roy vowed to become strong.

Everyone had a story and this was theirs. They had suffered a lot in the hands of their so-called parents which only thought about themselves, their money and their reputations. They had one selfish bastards as their parents.

"R....Roy" Even's voice brought Roy out of his thoughts. "Is me" He immediately answered though he already knew Even knew that. He had a scent, and his brother was a werewolf, so of course he scent him the moment he came walked into the house or got near the house.

"I came to see you brother"

"I was waiting for you. You didn't come to see me" now guilt was around. He really felt guilty for not paying his brother a visit all this time because he was feeling helpless. This really was a stupid excuse.

"I'm sorry, I have no excuse" Even said nothing else and the whole place quieted down, only their breathing could be heard.

Roy was just about to say something when he heard a 'click' sound before the door was opened. He was surprised when the door opened, revealing his brother.

His brother didn't look good. He was skinny and messy. He would torn cloths which was a white t-shirt and black jeans. His dark black hair was messy, his face was paler with dark circles camping under his eyes. His beautiful dark blue eyes were glowing. He didn't smell bad. It seemed he did shower but his appearance was not that of his. He was messy and Even didn't like mess. His brother wasn't a neat freak or anything, but, he did not prefer a mess.

Everything screamed animalistic about his brother and he didn't like it. He wanted his normal brother back.

"R....Roy" Even said, pulling Roy into a hug. He held Roy tight and a few seconds later, Roy could see his brother was relaxing, calming down. He hugged him back tighter. "Roy, you......you won't leave me right?"

"Never" Roy replied and buried his head into his brother's neck, breathing in his scent. His brother always smelled nice and he loved it, but this time, he hated the animalistic in his brother's scent.
