A/N: This is the sequal to Must Be a Wolf Thing
Alex knew she had no right to be mad at the fact that her fake girlfriend had agreed to meet up with her ex for dinner, she was after all her fake girlfriend, as in only with her for the sole purpose of making Eveline jealous. But Alex just can’t seem to shake the wolf’s primal need to keep the things that belong to her with her, and not out on the town doing god knows what with their ex girlfriends.
And it’s not like she didn’t trust Charlie, because she did, she just didn’t trust Riley. She was the one to break it off, so who’s to say that she’s not going to try and win her back? No one. And Alex would defiantly bet big money on that’s what Riley’s intentions were when she had asked Charlie to go out with her tonight.
“I still can’t believe you let her go out with her ex.” Alex rolled her eyes at her younger sister Carmen before shoving one of her headphones in one ear.
“She can go out with anyone she wants. I don’t own her.” Gideon snorted from his spot on the ground, which earned him a smack upside the head from the wolf.
“Mom did you see that!?” The Broadway star sighed from the arms of Santana, who almost instantly tightened her hold on her mate.
“Alex don’t hit your brother, that’s our job.” The tan boy nodded his head, but after realizing what she had said, stopped nodding right away.
“Hey!” Santana hide her laugh in her wife’s neck, but Rachel’s went exposed.
“What happened to you and Evey? She hasn’t come round lately.” The brown wolf’s attention shifted to the curly haired boy sitting at the end near her feet.
“Nothing happened, she’s just hanging out with her boyfriend.” The way the soccer player had said boyfriend caused her mom’s eyebrow to rise, although she didn’t notice, to preoccupied with the iPod in her hand.
“You should have her come over. I wanna play games with her.” Chocolate eyes poked over the top of the electronic.
“Maybe later Simba.” León huffing and crossing his arms across his chest, in full on pout mood, normally brought a smile to the wolf’s face, but right now it only succeeded in making her think of Eveline’s pout, and how adorable that was.
Rachel noticed the sudden change in her daughter’s mood as she stood from the couch and began shuffling towards the stairs, where she took them one at a time.
“San.” The older Latina gave a sigh before wiggling her way out from behind her mate.
“Yeah yeah.”
Santana was slightly surprised to find her daughter lying on her bed, and not up in her music room with a guitar in her lap, or her hands on the piano.
“Hey you alright?” Alex moved her legs over to allow her mamá to sit on the edge of her bed, all the while giving her a nod.
“You got really quiet after Lee brought up Eveline. Everything ok with you two?” Alex gave another nod, but kept her focus on flipping through her iPod.
“Alex talk to me.”
“I don’t know what you want me to say. Everything’s fine. She’s hanging out with her boyfriend, and my-oh.” A tan hand suddenly flew to her chest, clutching at the material covering it.
“What’s wrong?” She was about to wave the older wolf off, when another jolt shot through her chest before settling deep in the pit of her stomach.
“I’ve never felt this.” Alex sat up, keeping one hand to her chest, and the other gripping the edge of her bed.
“What do you feel?” Another jolt sprung from the core of her heart to rattle around her chest before traveling down to her stomach.
“I don’t know, but I think Eveline’s in trouble.” Almost on instinct Alex rose from the bed and began walking down the stairs, not even stopping for her mom and mamá’s calls before opening the front door.
The jolts that were going through the Latina’s chest didn’t seem to be lessening anytime soon, if anything the closer she got the more she felt them. It wasn’t until she found herself parked on the street in front of a park she had never been to, did the jolts turn into something more. Instead of them traveling down into her stomach, they stayed in her chest, creating a sick sense of fear.
She could smell the faint smell of Eveline, but it was mixed with something she had never smelt on her before. This only seemed to add to her worry, and seeing Greg’s truck parked on the opposite side of the road didn’t help whatsoever.
“Stop! Greg stop it!” Came the distant voice of the blonde. And judging by the waver in her voice, she was either crying, about to cry, or was extremely scared. None of which Alex approved of.
But this was enough to send the wolf’s legs forward, towards the direction where the smell was coming from most. It wasn’t until she heard the unmistakable sound of clothes being torn did the slow jog turn into a full blown run, with one thing, and one thing only on the Latina’s mind; protect her mate.
If seeing the shear look of panic on her face, along the front of the blonde’s shirt torn open with Greg’s meaty hands roughing massaging at breasts wasn’t enough to make Alex see red, then hearing the sound of a zipper being undone, did the job. And in one swift moment Alex had tan hands gripping the back of the football captain’s shirt before using all her strength to literally fling him off the crying blonde.
“Don’t you ever touch her again!” Greg was taken back at the look of pure anger being directed at him, but either he was too stupid to know when to leave, or he thought he could take her, because he got up from the ground, and with a sly smile, took a step towards the two.
“She’s my girlfriend. I can do whatever I want, now step aside Lopez and run back to your dyke parents.” Tan fists clenched on either side, something Eveline noticed, and for once didn’t reach a hand out to calm the angry wolf.
“I’m warning you, you better leave her alone.” The big football player crossed his arms across his chest as he let out a loud laugh that echoed through the trees in the park.
“Or what? You gonna stop me? You don’t have enough-“ He was cut off by the Latina literally lunging at him, fists raised.
The first punch connected with the side of his jaw, and that was enough to send him to the ground, giving Alex the advantage to pin him to the ground and throw punches left and right at him. Some hit his face, others hit his hands or forearms as he tried to cover himself from her powerful hits.
“Don’t. Ever. Touch. Her. Again!” Eveline could only stare in some sort of awe as her best friend, had come to her rescue, and was now beating the living daylights out of her supposed boyfriend. She knew she should stop her, but some part of her couldn’t. That same part was getting an overwhelming sense of pride at seeing the taller girl beat a guy nearly twice her size. She’s not sure why she feels proud of that, but she does.
“Ok! Ok!” With one last punch sent to the bloodied guys face, Alex slowly slid off him and began taking small steps back until she stood next to the blonde once again.
“Alex…”
“Let’s go Eveline.” She could tell by the way the brunette’s hands were still clenched in tight fists, and are now lightly shaking, that she was having a hard time controlling her wolf, so she just nodded and allowed a tan arm to circle her waist and guide her towards her car.
The front door was nearly thrown off its hinges as Alex came in, followed by a still terrified Eveline. All the people in the front room jumped at the sound, but upon seeing a fuming Alex, and a scared Eveline, Rachel and Santana jumped from their spots and followed the pair to the bathroom where Alex told Eveline to sit on the toilet as she rummaged through the cabinets in search of something.
“Alex.” The objects in the cabinet didn’t stay in the brunette’s hands for long, they were shaking so bad.
“Alex!” Santana moved to grab hold of the younger Latina’s shoulders, and after getting a hold of her, she seriously thought about letting go when she felt all the muscle in her daughter tighten and an audible growl escape from her.
“Alex you need to get out of her before you phase and rip someone’s head off. Rachel will take care of Eveline.” Alex didn’t say anything and instead brushed past her mom on her way out of the bathroom, her mamá right behind her as they walked out the back door.
“What the hell happened?” Tan hands fisted in dark hair, and Santana was starting to become generally afraid of what her daughter may do.
“God I should go back and rip him to shreds!” Was the unmistakable growl of the wolf fighting its way out.
“Alex you need to calm down.” The Latina reached a hand out but wasn’t surprised when it was roughly shoved away.
“I can’t be calm mamá! Not after knowing what he was…what he could’ve done!” Santana took a step back, waiting for the wolf to just come out.
“Alex tell me what happened?”
“He was forcing himself on her!” That seemed to do it. As soon as the words left her mouth the once normal girl was gone, replaced by a shower of shredded pieces of clothing, and one angry brown wolf.
“Just run a few laps to calm down.” She didn’t need to be told twice before taking off into the darkness of the woods.
Rachel had never seen anyone that angry before, but she had a good idea of what may have caused her daughter to get to that point, but right now she was focused on pulling out the supplies Alex had been looking for. Although she didn’t know why she would need to use them, Eveline would be all healed in two hours top.
“Is Alex going to be ok?” Eveline’s voice was uncharacteristically soft and timid, something that caused Rachel to pause at wiping up dried blood from the cut above the blonde’s eyebrow.
“She’ll be ok, she just needs some time to calm down.” The dancer allowed her “Aunt” to clean the cut that was already being to heal, before breaking the silence again.
“I’ve never seen her that angry before….I thought she might kill him.” Eveline’s words this time nearly brought true fear into Rachel, but she pushed it away with the thought of Santana being able to calm her down.
“Don’t worry Santana’s calming her down.”
It didn’t work much. The feeling of her paws pounding on the woods floor calmed her enough to phase back and change into another set of clothes, but the need to just kill him was still there.
“Are you ok enough to go inside?” Alex just nodded, but kept her fists clenched.
“Rachel sent Eveline to your room.” The younger Latina didn’t wait to hear anymore, already heading up to her room.
All anger seemed to flood out of her when she saw blonde hair sprawled out on her pillow, with the blankets pulled up to her chin. Alex gave a sigh and quickly pulled the covers back before sliding in behind the dancer.
“Are you ok?” Eveline nodded in her arms, but didn’t turn around to face her.
“Eve?” When she still didn’t turn around, the brown wolf gently pushed her until she was laying on her back.
“Eve are you ok?”
“You were so angry…are you better now?” The soft touch of her pale hand on her tan cheek was enough to eliminate any other ounce of anger that may still be within her.
“I’m better now that you’re safe.” The blonde gave her, her first smile before burying her head into the Latina’s shoulder.
“Eve I think…I think there’s something you should know.”
Rachel clicked the phone off, already hanging it back up when she felt a pair of strong arms grab her from behind.
“You tell them Eveline’s fine?” The Jewish girl gave her a hum of approval.
“Good. I think Alex might tell Eveline tonight.”
