Snowflake Kisses Chapter 4

A/N: Hey guys! Alright so now Pollie has been introduced a bit, and her friends and at least one of her brothers. I know her having five brothers was a little overkill but hey, it just worked, okay? You'll get to meet the rest of them soon. And in this chapter you'll find out more in depth about Pollies strange relationship with her twin brother Pilot. So yeah. That's good right? Anywho, here's yet another chapter for you. Love you all. Theme song for this chapter is a little more hardcore than probably some of you are used to. But hey, I was born a metalhead so yeah. Theme song is Falling Away From Me by Korn. -MoonlitShadow

It only took about fifteen minutes for Pollie to make it back to her dorm.

Taking the steps two at a time, she made her way quickly up to the third floor where she shared a suite with both Augustine and Karen.

All three girls were thrilled when the college had allowed them to be roommates for all four years.

Pollie definitely was looking forward to spending most of her time with her friends and her rather large family.

She smiled as she pulled out the key to her door, and thought back through the years that Augustine and Karen had been a part of her and her family's lives.

The two girls had fit in perfectly to the unruly amount of boys to girls ratio in the McHenry family.

Pollie's father had been thrilled when she had told them both about her heritage and the important duties that one day she would have to carry out.

Flinging open the door to their suite, she made her way through Augustine and Karen's bedroom that they shared together and through their joined bathroom until she reached the darkened interior of her own private bedroom.

She was relieved and happy when her father had insisted that she get her own room in the suite as opposed to sharing with a roommate.

He claimed that she still had nightmares from the trauma she suffered when her mom disappeared from their lives.

And little did most people know, he was right.

She still would wake up screaming most nights and fall into a fit of tears and shaking at the terrible nightmares that her mind would create about her mother's disappearance and assumed death.

Only her father and Pilot knew about the nightmares though.

The rest of her brothers and her two best friends along with pretty much everyone in the town they lived in was told that her nightmares had stopped right around when she turned 18.

But oh, how wrong they were.

It had gotten so bad that in the last year of her and Pilot's high school days, she had taken to leaving her room all together and permanently moved into her twin's room where they shared a bed up until they were separated in college.

Well, most people thought they were separated.

Most nights Pilot was over at their place anyways seeing as how he had the most annoying roommates ever who didn't understand his need for personal space.

He and Pollie would always wait until Karen and Augustine either fell asleep, got too drunk to care, or went out partying all night finally leaving the two siblings alone.

Augustine and Karen had always said that her relationship with her twin brother was almost borderline romantic but both her and Pilot had denied ever anything happening like that.

In reality, no one but Pollie's father and the twins knew the truth about why Pollie and Pilot were so close.

In reality, Pollie and Pilot had been seen as special the moment they were born.

Both of them shared a connection that was much like one between soulmates.

One where they were all each other needed in the world.

A few people in town had started the rumor that Pilot and Pollie were romantically involved but her father had shut down the rumors almost instantly claiming that his twin were just close because of them helping each other through the loss of their mother.

But in reality, it had started long before their mother had disappeared that fateful day.

Both Colby and his wife noticed immediately that the twins were always in sync with one another in a way that closely resembled what looked like a mating bond.

But when they contacted a few elders of other packs that they knew of, they had found out that there was another type of bonding much like imprinting that could happen between siblings.

Especially twins.

Pollie and her brother would forever be linked together in an otherworldly way that no human would ever be able to understand.

And Pollie's father knew for a fact that both Pollie and Pilot would become wolves just like the rest of their family.

Yet both would be different from them all in ways that couldn't really be explained except if one believed in magic.

From what the elders had told Colby and his wife, there was a certain type of magic that ran through both the twins bodies that created a bond even stronger than that of two wolves in a mating bond.

They were for lack of a better term, each other's sibling soulmates.

The elders explained that long ago when the mating bonds were first discovered it had been hundreds of years until a set of twins were born into a pack that had a stronger connection to each other than anyone else that they had come into contact with.

Colby's wife had brought up the question of if this meant that Pollie and Pilot would be considered Immortal when they reached the age where their bond was at its peak height in potency.

But this, was a question that the elders did not know how to answer.

Other than give them the advice of never trying to separate them at all costs.

Because coming between that type of bond, well…no one really even knew the consequences for that. But from what the elders eluded to it would be devastating.

So, Colby and his wife had kept the twins as close as possible.

Making sure that every day they went everywhere with each other to solidify the bond that was growing between them with each passing day.

And they watched as the twins flourished by being in one another's company and decided that this was their life and how it would be always.

Until the day Colby's wife disappeared.

It all changed then.

Out of all of the children, the twins had reacted the worst.

Pollie began having night terrors that left her with many sleepless nights and Pilot had become particularly moody and harsh to anyone outside the family.

But one thing remained the same.

Both protected each other just as if they were each other's reason for existing.

So, while many found the twins bond strange, those who were close to them knew most or at least half of the truth.

That the twins were simply special.

And that was all they needed to know.

Colby was definitely concerned though about when both of them would find and meet their mates for the first time.

The ones who would be their romantic soulmates forever.

How would it affect their bond?

And would they even be able to separate away from one another enough to even accept such a bond with another wolf?

It was all just a mess of questions that had yet to be answered.

And Colby knew, that it would be a long time before any of the answers came to them.

Leaving them wondering.

Always about the twins that seemed to love each other more than life itself.

As Pollie collapsed down onto her bed, she threw her backpack off to the side and kicked off her shoes before proceeding to bury herself amongst the dark covers of her small, twin bed and get lost in the music that blasted from her earphones into her very soul.

Her eyes began to get heavy, and as shadows formed and danced around her, she started to fall into a dazed and sleepy state of mind.

Knowing that her brother and the others would be back soon enough, she knew that they'd know exactly where to find her.

So, without a second thought, she felt herself slip away into a land of dark paradise with dreams and visions of a dark russet color wolf clouding her thoughts.
