CHAPTER TWENTY...

I knew I would pass out very soon but I just had to see Gianna, to know if she was alright. I rushed towards the pack house panting in my wolf form. Sitting on the porch were Henry and John, they must have felt my presence in the Pack and chose to wait outside for me, and by the look on their faces, I knew that whatever had happened was bad. My heart plummeted. What on earth happened?

Immediately after I reached them I shifted back to my human form and put on the sweats that Henry handed to me. It was then I noticed the injuries I had acquired on my reckless run back here. I had a lot of cuts on my feet, hands, back, and stomach all probably from bumping into different trees and stepping on the sharp object but they were already healing. I didn't care about them right now I had to see Gianna first and I was going to do just that when John placed his hands in front of me stopping me.

A deep growl rumbled from me, my wolf certainly didn't like it that someone was trying to stop him from seeing Gianna right now. Left for him John would have already been ripped to shreds.

"Look, I know that you want to see her right now, but I think you should go shower first. Besides she's still unconscious". John said.

From his voice, I knew he was pissed at me but controlled his temper because I was his alpha, and even though he didn't like what I did, he couldn't lose his temper except he wants to challenge me. But I didn't care about my cleanliness right now. It was the least I was worried about. I moved to go in but Henry's voice stopped me.

"I wouldn't go in there yet if I were you. You don't want to deal with your sister and Gianna's brother in your state they could kill you right now". Another growl ripped from me before I could stop it, my wolf was losing the little patience he had right now.

"I don't care what anyone has to say. I'm going to see Gianna right now and no one's stopping me". My voice came out guttural alerting them that my wolf was near the surface. They both backed off and followed not too closely behind me.

I immediately got control of my wolf, I didn't want to snap at anyone. I made my way up the stairs and towards my wing. Immediately after I reached there I was met with a very angry Jo, and before I knew what exactly was going on she was coming at me with full force and pushed me. I staggered but didn't fall. Even though I was extremely exhausted from my five-hour run, I wasn't about to show it.

"You stinking piece of shit douchebag. Why didn't you pick up your goddamn phone huh! We called and called but you didn't pick up why. How could you do this to her? Tell me. When she needed you the most you weren't there. Why didn't you have the balls to apologize to her for what you said but instead you had to leave a day earlier because you are nothing but a COWARD". She had been hitting my chest while she said those things but I grabbed her arms to stop her. I didn't have time for this right now she could yell at me all she wants later, but I just had to see Gianna.

"Look Jo you can shout at me later okay but I have to see Gianna okay". I moved to pass her but she stepped in front of me. I had to control my wolf now because he was at the edge of coming out.

"You can't go in, because I won't let you. That is your punishment okay you won't get to see her. Now leave". I needed every single control I could muster to prevent me from chopping off my sister's head.

"Look Jo I don't have time- "I didn't have time to complete my statement when the door to Gianna's room slammed open. I could hear voices shouting for someone to stop, and soon I felt the pain go through my jaw. The force of the punch threw me to the floor. I wiped the blood from my lips and stood up to face a fuming Carlos. Behind him were Luna Kristen and my mother. My wolf was fuming with rage at the disrespect, but I held him down because I did deserve the punch. If I were in Carlos's shoes I would have done the same, but that doesn't mean I was ready to allow an angry brother stop me from seeing my mate. I moved to sidestep him to enter the room, but I was grabbed by Carlos who was about to punch me again I stopped him because I wasn't sure I would be able to control my wolf this time.

"Look we could get into this later but right now I need to see her". I left his hands and turned to go but this time he twisted my arm and punched me. All I saw was red. I punched him throwing him to the other side of the hallway.

Everyone around us was screaming for us to stop but we just couldn't see as we were two alphas. The only one who could stop this fight was another alpha. Other wolves knew to stay away at this point. We threw punches at each other, but mine were weaker because of my injuries. We continued fighting for a while before I heard my father's voice. He was in full alpha mode but it didn't affect me that much because he was no longer alpha. When he saw that shouting at us wasn't going to get us to stop. He and Philip came forward and separated us after much struggle. We were both bleeding but I was more injured counting my previous injuries. We were both panting like we had just run a marathon and were still growling at each other. My dad turned to me

"What were you thinking getting into a fight while your mate is lying in there unconscious, and the first thing you do when you get here is to get into a fight with her brother? What do you think she's going to think"? I stayed silent. Philip took Carlos away. Luna Kristen followed closely behind but not before giving me a look of disappointment.

"Now you'll leave here and go to your room get cleaned up and we'll talk about you seeing her". I growled at the way my dad spoke to me, but he was right. I needed to eat, rest and then I'll see her even though I wasn't happy about it I turned and left. With the look of disappointment on my mother's face bugging me.
