Trinity

"Don't walk away from ." He said walking after . I ignored him and kept walking down the hallway at a brisk, but mostly normal pace. "Dammit Little Bunny, stop right now." I hated when he used that stupid nickna, but I wasn't going to give him the satisfaction of a response, so I kept walking.
He caught up to after just a minute. I was almost to the end of the hall, almost out of the south wing and back to the comfort of the north wing that I knew so well.
"I said don't walk away from ." He grabbed by the wrist, forcing to turn and look at him. He didn't grab hard, and it didn't hurt in the least. That surprised . For all his threats he'd made, he hadn't hurt physically, yet. Once he had facing him, he asked his question again. "What the hell were you doing down here Little Bunny?" He asked , his voice growing firm and deep as he got more and more angry.
He was only gripping my wrist lightly, so I yanked hard and pulled myself free. I then turned my back on him and continued walking. This ti he had had enough. He spun around, threw over his shoulder, and marched to my room, which was at the end of the hallway I had just entered. I managed not to yelp or gasp as he did this.
He sat, or for a better word threw, on my bed and then stalked back to the door and leaned against it. I had no escape, unless I could make it to the bathroom before he caught . He noticed where I was looking and narrowed his eyes with annoyance.
"Don't even try, I would catch you." He growled, still glaring at . "Now, start talking. First why have you been ignoring ?" He demanded. I put on a smile that was filled with fifty percent fake sincerity, fifty percent annoyance, and once hundred percent I hate the Alpha.
"Oh, well you see Reece, I just didn't think you were in that habit of talking to nothing." I told him. He looked at perplexed. "That's what I am, right? I'm nothing to you. I just didn't think you would want to talk to nothing. And believe , I was really surprised when you managed to touch nothing too, though I would really rather you didn't." I said in my I truly hate you, but I'm going to ruin you tone of voice.
I saw his face go from annoyed to shocked to pissed off then he spoke.
"Feel better yet Little Bunny?" He asked , annoyance filling his voice.
"Not in the least Benji." I told him. He cocked his head to the side, confused.
"Benji?"
"You showed an intense displeasure to Fido, so I had to rena the puppy." He growled at that.
"You think you're funny, don't you?"
"Extrely, just like you think you're so strong, just cause you're tall and can carry over your shoulder."
"No, I know I'm strong, but I've been holding back out of respect, don't make lose that for you. Got it."
"Sa to you." I grumbled at him.
"Moving on." He shook his head, like he was trying to move past the aningless, trivial blabber. "Why were you down that hall?"
"No one has ever shown around, so I decided to show myself around." I said matter-of-factly. "So, who is she?" I asked him flat out.
"Who is who? I don't know who you're talking about." He avoided the question.
"Don't give that." I thundered at him in as loud of a voice as I could. He quirked an eyebrow as if he thought my yelling was just for show.
"Who is that woman you have staying down that hall? Is she your girlfriend? Lover? Was she who you wanted to be with before I showed up? Because rember I tried to get away fr-."
"First, I couldn't get you to answer , now you won't shut up long enough for to answer." He complained, interrupting .
"You know what they say, be careful what you wish for." I told him with a small laugh.
"Smart ass." He snapped at .
"Dumbass." I snapped right back. I wasn't going to let him get off track. I wasn't going to let him think I was that easily quelled.
"It's no-." I could already tell he was going to brush off. Then he would just think that he could walk all over .
"Don't tell it's nothing. Whoever she is, she has her own room here at your house, she's obviously soone that you care deeply about."
"You don't know what you're talking about." Every ti he spoke it was in a growl, his anger was worsening.
"I know that there is a woman down that hallway. I slled her scent and heard her heartbeat." I told him.
"Drop it." He snapped at .
"No. You've told that I must not embarrass the pack. That ans that even though you and I are mates in na only, I can't find soone else. If I can't have soone else, then neither can you." I yelled at him.
"You've got it wrong."
"I highly doubt that. I refuse to let you have a secret lover, especially living in the sa house as . I may only be a mate in na only, but I am also the Luna of this pack and I will banish her if I have to."
"She's my mother for Goddess' sake!" He scread at .
His words shocked . I was floored. His mother? The previous Luna? No one has seen or heard from her for about seven years now. Not since Reece had taken over the pack. I had assud that she was dead, most of the pack had assud that.
"I thought your mother died." I told him, confused.
"A lot of people think that." He sighed while looking down at the floor. "But in truth, my father's death broke her."
"Broke her? What do you an?" His voice sounded so sad when he had spoken that I felt the need to comfort him, but I fought against it and asked to know more instead.
"She is nothing but the shell of the person she used to be. She just sits there, day in and day out. There is a maid that goes in there to take care of her. A doctor that checks on her. But she has not moved, spoken, or even looked at in seven years."
"She's catatonic?" I asked, shocked at what I was hearing.
"Yes." He sighed, nodding.
"That must be rough." I told him. "I'm sorry to hear that."
"I don't need your pity." He snapped.
"That is such a man thing to say. Empathy is not the sa thing as pity you idiot." He growled at again. "If you keep growling like that you will likely lose your voice or turn into a dog for real, one or the other." He growled yet again causing to laugh at him.
"Why am I just now hearing about your mother?" I asked him. "I'm living here with you, and obviously misunderstandings are bound to happen. Why didn't you tell before today?"
"Because it's none of your business."
"How do you figure?" He asked.
"Well let's see, first is because I am your mate and therefore what affects you affects , even if I am a mate in na only I still must know about the major things, especially those inside the house. Second is because I am the Luna, and she is a pack female which makes her my business." He opened his eyes wide at my words like he didn't expect to have such a compelling answer for him.
"Fine, I will tell you about major things from now on." He grumbled. "But leave my mother alone. There isn't anything that can be done for her."
"So, you just leave her there? Letting a maid take care of her and a doctor see her?" I asked, shocked. I loved my family, even my grandfather for so reason, I could never ignore them like that.
"Don't try to tell how to run my family." He yelled. "You know nothing about , my family, or my life."
"And whose fault is that?" I yelled right back at him. I was on my feet now, marching across the room, I couldn't hold my anger in any longer.
"You don't need to know any more than what I tell you." He growled as he flung the door open and left the room, slamming the door shut behind him.
"JERK!" I yelled after him for good asure. I knew full well he could hear , in fact I was glad he could.
