87. The tea is spilled.

Aunt Rita.
A belle in her mid-thirties.

She couldn't wait to go sight-seeing with Veera and her beau.

Ares Cascata.

Cascata? Why did that name feel so familiar with her? Alot of questions were on her mind about how Veera actually met someone quite as wealthy as him. Then again, Veera and her photography team were always called to lavish weddings.

She was very proud of her Apsara niece to have found herself a secure job and a man with great riches no doubt.
She was still heartbroken about Jason dumping her. How could he just abandon her like that in Hawaii?!
Rita walked around in her summer dress, trying to find the dining hall. This huge state felt like a maze to her and why were all the security personnel wearing sunglasses? A guard Miguel approached her.

"Are you lost miss?" He asked removing his sunglasses for her.
His deep chocolate eyes stirred her core and she broke out in a delightful smile. At first, she thought the chauffer was cute, but no. This guy seemed even more cuter.

"Yes, I'm looking for the breakfast area. Miguel." She read his name of his metal plated name tag.

"Right this way." He escorted her outside, and Rita cheekily couldn't help herself and checked him out.
Yes. She was Veera's unfortunate horny little aunt.

Rita then caught the sound of laughter coming nearby and she finally saw her dear niece and her handsome rich boyfriend sharing a life. Veera got up from her chair and Ares smiled looking at Rita approaching them.
Veera quickly fixed Ares's tie and turned on her heel, giving her a grin. Rita returned her smile back as Ares now approached them.

"Aunt Rita, I'd like you to meet my boyfriend, Ares."

"Finally, great to meet you, I’ve heard so much about you from my dear niece." Ares grinned at that.

"Pleasure, to meet Rita." He shook her hand.

"I'm hoping to hear some good stories of Veera when she was a child?"
Veera shook her head at Ares clearly giving him a no. Aunt Veera had loads to share and tell.

"Are you kidding? I snapped some of her old baby and childhood pics on my phone."

"Aunt Rita?!"
"Oh c'mon, I'm sure Ares will be interested?"

Ares pulled her away from Veera and placed an arm around her shoulder, clearly interested to see this.
"Well shall I start? Ohh, how about this one?"

"Awww, a toothless Veera aged four." Ares looked so happy, making Veera roll her eyes at him.

"Cute! Do you have more?"

"Sure." Suddenly Rita's stomach bellowed from hunger making her grow red. Ares and Veera chuckled.

"But first let's eat?" Veera grabbed Rita and made her sit down. Ares and Veera both agreed to share the k-9 news to her after breakfast. Ares was nervous wished that Rita wouldn't look down on him too badly.
They ate and conversed discussed the best sight-seeing areas and where to get the best gelatos in town. Rita was filled with tourist excitement once more.

"So how did you two fall in love?"

"Actually. Funny story. I hated this guy." Veera said looking cheekily at her lover.

"Really?" Ares asked giving her a discreet look that said 'I'll get you back for that.'
Veera ignored those butterflies in her belly and looked back at her puzzled looking aunt in her white big brim summer hat.

"What?"

"However, as time went by, I got to learn more and more about him in Italy and found out that, we have the same interests such as travelling and exploring and he is the most incredible, heart-warming, gentle, brave, hot, sweetest guy that I could ever fall in love with."

T: Aww. Baby!
Rita smiled at her young niece who looked like she was seriously in love. The hickeys on her neck made it official.

"You two make a lovely couple." Rita took a picture of them on her phone and Ares helped taking a selfie with all three of them.
"Actually, Aunt Rita, me and Ares have something..."
"Oh Veeraa!" Gloria suddenly called out entering through the door and Rita froze suddenly dropping her spoon out of shock, as she spotted someone extremely familiar.

"Ciao bella!" Nico grinned seeing Veera easily.
Veera got up happy to see them and, easily greeted them with a hug.
Ares noticed a fear and anger rising from Rita and a vein threatening to pop out from her forehead. Rita’s happy mode was obviously disturbed seeing Gloria and Nico in the distance.

"Veera! Get back here right now!" She screamed.
"Aunt Rita, what’s wrong?"
Rita came haughtily towards her niece and pulled her behind her back, protectively.
Nico realised that he'd seen Rita before, and he was no doubt in shock when he found out that Rita was her aunt.

"You?" The past lovers both said in unison.
Nico could see the hurt in Rita’s eyes and went to give her a friendly hug. But Rita shoved him away and shook her head.

“Don’t you dare touch me you filthy Were!” She fired.

“Look, I’m sorry, for…”
Rita lost her cool proceeded to slap Nico Infront of Gloria and she growled out at her, easily stopping her on coming slap.
Gloria lost her cool, and picked up Rita easily by her neck collar.

"Excuse me, that was rude!"
G: Nico why are you saying sorry? You didn’t do anything wrong?

“Gloria! Please calm down, that’s my aunt!” Veera said trying her level best to understand why her aunt suddenly slapped Nico out of the blue.

"Put me down she-wolf." Rita pulled out a knife that was powdered with Dark-Leaf, shakily as Nico’s eyes darkened.

“Rita, put the knife down.” Nico said controlling his growl.

“Aunt Rita, stop it! That’s my friend!” Veera said holding her wrist trying to keep her from stabbing Gloria.

A: What the f^ck?!
N: I can explain! I kind of…did.
Nico said looking at his blast from the past, Rita, who was simply in angry tears seeing him.

Ares eyes went wide with shock when realization hit him. His second youngest brother basically…

A: YOU F^CKED WITH VEERA'S AUNT!
N: Many moons ago bro!

Gloria, dropped Rita on her ass and, knocked out the damn knife from her hands easily. She looked back sharply at Nico, in disbelief and rage.

“YOU SLEPT WITH HER?!” Gloria said feeling extremely hurt, since she was his mate. Gloria was so p!ssed off, that she growled at Nico angrily making him stop in his path to get to her.

The tea had been spilled, shocking Veera altogether.
Gloria went down on all fours and phased out in her deep grey wolf with fiery green eyes.

N: Baby please! I love you!

G: Kiss my Werewolf a$$ Nico!

Gloria took off running to destroy a fluffy rabbit for brunch.
Veera was shocked and saw aunt Rita storming away, after seeing Nico out of the blue.

“What the hell?! You slept with my Aunt?!” Veera asked and Nico sighed.

“Oh my god?! You’re the one she had the one-night stand with?”

“I had many one-night stands with many women Veera.” Veera simply shoved Nico making him fall into the pool. Of course, he did! He had a youthful look for more than a hundred years.

“Why the hell did it have to be my aunt!” Veera stormed away and Ares sighed going after his mate and her aunt.

Nico got out of the water and sighed out, he went down on all fours and phased in to his dark red wolf with deep glowing forest green eyes. He growled out in anger and in stress, chasing after his mate that was no doubt p!ssed off with him.

Rita on the other hand gathered her suitcase and proceeded to storm out of the Mansion like villa.

“Aunt Rita wait!”
“Get your things immediately, we’re no longer this dog’s guests!”

T: Dog? Excuse me b!tch?
A: Calm down. She’s family.
T: She’s obviously a rude one.

“I’m not going with you!”

“Veera this is not up for discussion, you’re coming home with me!”

“Rita please, calm down. I’m upset at what my brother did to you in the past, but I assure you, his no longer like that.” Ares said, talking to her in the most respective and polite manner.
Rita scoffed.

“Oh please? My niece is not some booty call! Veera listen to me his playing you, his got you wrapped around his finger because he’s loaded and all he’ll do is use you and get tired of you and he’ll no doubt kill you. Probably make you a hunt.”

T: This b!tch is crae
Veera chuckled out holding Ares’s hand firmly, making Rita frown.

“I knew you’d react like this. Well sorry to break it to you aunt Rita, but I love him, and he loves me back so suck it!”

T: Wow! Go V!
Aunt Rita eyes almost welled up and Ares sighed out.

“Veera, we’re family don’t do this. Don’t choose this dog over me!” Her tears rolled down her cheek and Veera controlled the large lump forming inside her throat.

“I’ll always choose him. He’s my everything.” Veera kissed the back of Ares hand and Aunt Rita looked at her niece in shock.

“Has he bitten you?”
Veera’s face easily blushed, remembering her time in Japan.

“Yes, his claimed me, and, so have I?”

T: That was a sexy night.
A: Focus, now is not the time to get horny!

“Veera no! Don’t you understand you’ve put yourself in great danger! I was trying my best to keep you away from him! But now! Oh Veera how could you be so stupid!”

“Aunt Rita relax! No one has come after me. Maybe they don’t care? Besides, Ares is here to protect me.”
Ares put a hand around her shoulder in a comforting manner.

T: Whose they?
A: The jerk offs. Red Tenshis

Rita shook her head.

“They do. That’s why they went after your mother when she was claimed by a dog!” Rita fired looking annoyed at Ares.

“Veera, you’re not safe here. Come with me.”

“No! Can’t you see I’m happy with him?”

“Don’t be ridiculous, it’s not like you’ll marry him?”

T: I like it so I will put a ring on it.

In the middle of the huge family argument.

Ares took a hold of Veera’s hand and suddenly bent the knee.
