**McKee POV: **
All night, all fucking night Bas and John were fucking like rabbits. It took all my willpower to not go to her room and beat his ass. And it was just my luck that I bumped into him in the kitchen smiling from ear to ear. Looks like he is making food for himself, and Bas. I am sure he is happy with himself; he thinks he won but he doesn't realize it's not where she is at is where she wants to be.
I am sure he knows I stayed here last night. And heard Bastet and him. Fucking bastard, he knows the headboard was hitting the wall. He needs to stop bragging about the shit they did last night before I knock the look of pride off his face.
He is right Bas and Abrams being the last living descendants of Abraham Helsing. She would want children to carry on his legacy. I so want to smack those sandwiches out of his hand. Then bang his head against the counter.
I knew he was going to try to impregnate her. I wonder how he would feel if he knew I was the first to have that honor. If he thinks Bastet will be used as a breeder, he has another thing coming. She is a born warrior she thinks children would only slow her down.
I am beyond angry. I was hoping I could skip the wedding, but it is tradition for the second in command to be a part of the wedding party. Word is everyone got their suit except me, I have to be with Bas for the fitting and I am not ready for that yet.
"Son, how did you sleep", Dad said I was so lost in thought I didn't hear him come in.
"Don't start dad", I say with an eye roll.
"She is not lost to you. She will realize he is not the one for her and leave him", dad said trying to cheer me up.
"Dad, I don't want to be her second choice", I said trying not to sound defeated.
"But you expect him to accept her as yours", he says as he reaches for a bottle of water.
"You are supposed to be on my side Dad", I say pissed off.
"I am on the association side. You two need to get along for the sake of her and the association", he said in a firm tone.
"I'm okay with everything Dad", I tried to convince him and myself.
"Oh, really is that's why you haven't gone to one suit fitting", he said crossing his arms over his chest.
"I will do it when I get a chance okay? I just need to prepare myself to see her. I haven't seen her since the night she stayed at our house", I said looking like a sick puppy.
"Her wedding is soon so put your big boy panties on and get to it. You don't want to wait until the day of her wedding to face her", I hate that he has a point.
I go outside to our tree and think about her. There was no way in hell I was going to go to in my room and risk hearing them two fuck. My dad has a point I at least need to get the fitting done. If he noticed I know everyone else did. Not wanting to look like a sore loser I decided to text her and set up an appointment to get it done.
*Me: Hey are you busy?
Bas: Not really, but I was planning on not being busy today why?
Me: I have been so busy I haven't had a chance to get a suit fitting for your wedding done yet.
Bas: You are right actually it was on my list of things to do. I can call the store and see if they can squeeze us in. How about tomorrow?
Me: Sure, if they can squeeze us in, I can meet you there.
Bas: I just texted the owner and he said we can come in at ten in the morning. Can you pick me up and we can go?
Me: Sure, where do you want me to pick you up from?
Bas: Out front at 8:30, there is some other stuff I would like to go over with you.
Me: Ok see you tomorrow bye.
Bas: Bye *
Tomorrow is going to take a lot out of me. And to think when I came back from college. I came back with the intent of taking her back. But then I heard rumors that she was dealing with John. The same guys whom she was showing around when I left.
I am dreading this. I don’t want to get fitted for a suit to be in the love of my life’s wedding. John does not deserve her. If I had to be honest with myself neither do it. I wonder how Bas will feel about this tomorrow.
After hearing her and John all night they seem to be doing okay. But we are going to be alone tomorrow. And feelings may come up from her and me. My pride won’t let me beg for her to not marry him. Even if she doesn’t marry me. I for damn sure don’t want her to marry someone less than her. Someone less than me.
So tomorrow it is. I don't know how it will go or what she wants to go over with me, but we shall see. I don't know how she will react to seeing me. I hope we are alone so if there is anything we need to say before her big day. Leaning on our tree I think about how things used to be, even when I left for college, I kept tabs on Bas.
Dad and some of the others kept me updated on her life. To say I was pissed about her relationship with John was an understatement. I was so pissed I told the man to leave John by himself during a dangerous mission. They did what I asked, and I was told Bas saved him from the newly turned vampires. Tonight, I will be sleeping at home so I can have a fresh brain tomorrow for my time with Bas. I want to be able to talk to her with a clear head.
I wish things didn’t go the way they did back in the day. But it happened for a reason. My father might be right. Maybe I should say nothing and let her make her mistake. Then hopefully she will come running back to me. And I will be waiting for her with open arms.
I don’t even bother going back to my room. I will be dammed if I am going to listen to Bas and John fuck all damn day. Instead, I go to my own house. I need to get my head straight for tomorrow. I know Bas will act like nothing is wrong. She is going to tiptoe around the topic. Because she doesn’t want to hurt my or John’s feelings. Well, fuck that shit. My heart is already broken. Fuck hurt feelings.
