As soon as Leah saw the smirk on her sister's face, she knew what Aubree was thinking. And when her sister spoke, Leah just reached out to shove her before snatching the bottle of vodka from her hands. She took a swig. "I don't know if I would mind," Leah finally mumbled. "I mean, it's not like I have any other possible mates lined up, unless something actually does happen with Ryan." Suddenly an idea popped into Leah's head, one she was sure Aubree already had. "What if uncle Zee is scaring off all of my possible mates? And that's why I haven't had any guys approach me?" It would also make sense as to why the idea of Zacky being her mate didn't weird Leah out as much as it should. He was acting territorial over her, and it was her natural instinct as a werewolf to be drawn to males who did that, especially so close to her eighteenth birthday. "I just...ugh, this is so confusing," Leah said. She looked over at Aubree. "I mean, you of all people should know. It's just weird to think that someone who's practically our uncle wants to be your mate. And oh my God, what if he's the kind of guy who wants me to start having pups right away? I don't want to do that, Aubree." Leah knew there was large chance she would end up pregnant within a few months of being mated, but with a younger mate, it was usually easier to talk them out of doing it so soon. With an older mate like Zacky or Matt, it would be nearly impossible.
Matt laughed at Zacky. "It's Saturday, you idiot," he told him. "And why the hell did you suggest prowling around their school if you hate getting up early?" Matt had a sneaking suspicion that it had something to do with Leah, something Brian wouldn't like very much. Then again, Leah had had pretty much no suitors to date, so maybe Brian wouldn't mind so much. "So once again, we'll just meet at the school around seven on Monday morning to make sure they'll actually be there and then we'll stick around for a few hours to check things out. Because as much as I want to keep an eye on Aubree, I do have a fucking life, Zack." Finishing off his beer, Matt got to his feet, tossing the bottle into the trash before he headed for the door. "Well guys, I think I'm going to head out," he said, offering a short wave before he slipped out the door. He transformed into his wolf form and headed through the woods in the direction of his house, stopping short when he heard voices. He could tell immediately that they belonged to Aubree and Leah, but he couldn't pinpoint exactly where they were coming from. He knew he should go back to tell Brian that the girls were disobeying his orders, but he decided that he would rather spy on them. So Matt headed off in the direction he thought the voices were coming from, sniffing to try and pick up Aubree's scent.
