Chapter 54:

Pythia POV:

It didn't take long before Tye, Brandon and Leia burst through the door, I knew he would feel my anger and honestly I'm still not sure what came over me. He looked around the room until his eyes landed on mine, then they shifted to Jasper who was still holding Apollo. When his eyes landed on my dad a confused expression came across his face. "You punched your dad?" Tye asked as he walked over to me. "Yes, yes I did. You need to sit down for this surprise." I replied. I motioned for everyone to take a seat. I sat in between Jasper and Tye. "So what is going on?" Tye asked. I took a deep breath and turned my head to look at him. "Look at Jasper and Jenson and then look at me. Tell me what do you see?" I asked. I still couldn't believe I had siblings in this world and no one ever told me. I watched as Tye, Brandon and Leia studied the three of us before Leias eyes widened. "No way.." Leia whispered. Instantly it clicked with the other two. "You're related?" Brandon asked. 

I tilted my head to the side giving nothing away. "You are siblings.." Tye whispered. "Correct. It clicked when I saw the way my dad reacted to seeing them and then I punched him." I replied. "I can explain. I didn't abandon them. Their mother was my mate but I was already in the council for the grand elders so we had to hide her away. I went to see her and the boys when we were attacked by rogues. She was killed and I was near death myself. I summoned Phil to hide the boys away, a place where I could watch over them and know they were safe." My dad said with tears in his eyes. "Why didn't you come for us?" Jenson croaked out. His voice alone was enough to break my heart. "I couldn't risk the elders knowing I had any of you kids. You boys are half wolf. They would have killed you both and that was something I couldn't allow to happen, and Pythia you know why I couldn't come back for you." My dad replied. "Okay so why didn't Phil go to them when he came to me?" I asked harshly. "Because I wanted to be the one to get to them first and explain everything. I was going to wait until after your issues were solved but I guess I can't now." My dad replied. 

"Are you kidding me? You were going to wait to go and see your sons? You should have gone to them when you came out to see us at the beach." Tye stated and I saw his eyes were flashing from blue to green. "I should have yes, but you have to understand that I as well as Olivia are under very close watch, when we are able to get out we have to report where we go and who we talk to." My dad replied. "If you want our trust you will have to work for it." Jasper said. "We won't make it easy for you either." Jenson added. "I understand. When everything is over I will do anything to gain all of your trust." My dad replied. "Okay I think we need to take a breather. You all stopped by for a reason so what is it?" I asked. I could feel the tension in the air and it was starting to make me uncomfortable. "Just to tell you we sent out pictures of Storm and Damien and we will be searching with the night team. Lillith and her team are going through every book we have. They have also cloaked themselves so we can't use a locator spell to find them." Olivia replied. 

"Okay, I will come find you all later but for now we need some time to ourselves if you don't mind." I said. As they stood my dad looked at the three of us and I could see the regret and sadness in them. They didn't say a word as they walked out of the house. I looked over to Jasper who still had Apollo tucked into his chest. I looked down to see Apollo had twisted his body to turn further into his now uncle and was sleeping as if nothing had just happened. "Okay so this is a lot I know and if you boys need some time to think about all of this I will understand." I said softly. "We aren't leaving you." Jenson replied quickly. "Yeah, we know where we belong, it's like we can feel it in our bones." Jasper replied quietly. "You two are more than welcomed here. It's nice to know I have more brothers to throw around." Tye replied with a smirk. "I'd like to test that theory one day." Jasper chuckled. Okay so this isn't as weird as I thought it would be. "I can put him in his crib so you don't have to hold him." I said looking at Jasper.

He turned to look at me with a blank expression. "No, he is fine where he is. He likes me." Jasper replied with a small smile. "When he wakes up it's my turn to spend time with him." Jenson said, Jasper looked up and narrowed his eyes. The last thing I need is the two of them arguing while Apollo is asleep. "No fighting. When Apollo wakes up Jenson can spend a little time with him. Y'all are his uncles and we have all the time in the world." I stated. "Yeah that's true. We finally have a nephew dude." Jenson said with a smile. "I know, we see everyone else with other siblings and nieces or nephews. We never thought we would have that." Jasper added. It warmed my heart seeing the looks on their faces. All I saw was calm and peace. "We are going to go back and finish training." Brandon announced as he and Leia stood up. "Very well, I will come check on things in a little bit." Tye replied. "Where do you guys stay?" I asked "There is a little house on the east side that we live in." Jenson replied. "Tye and I are building a big house not too far from here, it should be done within a few months. How would you two like to live with us?" I asked. 

I had a feeling deep down that they didn't need to be far from us, maybe it was because they were our guards or maybe it was because I finally know I have siblings and I want to catch up for every moment we lost growing up together. "We would like that." Jasper replied. "We could share a room so we don't take up anything more." Jenson retorted. "Absolutely not, you both will have your own rooms. The top floor will be reserved for Pythia and I, our children and our family. Down stairs will be for guests." Tye replied easily. Apollo started to stir and let out a little cry. "I'll be right back, I'll go get his bottle." Tye said but, before he could get up Jenson jumped to his feet. "No! I'll get it. Where is it? What do I do?" He asked. "There is a bottle in the fridge. Warm it up in the fridge but, don't over heat it. Test the milk on your wrist." I replied laughing. I have never seen someone move so fast in my life. I could hear the fridge door opening and closing. "We need to change his diaper, unless you want to do that." I said tilting my head to the side. "Uh-I could try." Jasper stuttered. 

"Okay come down here on the pad, lay him on his back. Yeah, just like that. Now, unbutton the bottom of his onesie and pull it up a little bit." I said, I watched his every move, I grabbed the diaper bag and pulled a diaper and wipes out and when I looked back Jasper had his entire face scrunched up. "He pooped." Jasper said, making me laugh. "Yes, babies do that. pull the sides off and grab the front and make sure you pull it backwards." I instructed. I pulled out a wipe and handed him one. "Now whatever you missed you wipe up." I said giggling. Jenson came back in and his face twisted. "How does a smell like that come out of a tiny person." Jenson muttered. "Alright move over." I said. I quickly wiped up Apollo and put a new diaper on him, when I was done buttoning his shirt I gently pick him up and cradled him close. "Now daddy can throw the diaper away." I said smiling at the three of them. "Jenson sit on the couch." I said. He didn't waste a moment, the smile on his face will soon fade away when Apollo spits up on him. The thought of his reaction made me smile more.

I bent down and placed Apollo in the crook of his arm. When the bottle got close enough Apollo opened his mouth and Jenson relaxed. "This is easy." He said. "Alright I am going to go and check on a few things and then I will be back for dinner." Tye said, looking around at all of us. He gave me a soft kiss before he walked out of the door. "So how do you two really feel?" I asked now that we were all alone. "I feel complete. We always wondered if we had any family, I didn't think it would be you though." Jasper replied. "It's a shock factor but I am honestly excited. I feel like we have so much to catch up on." Jenson added. "You two seem very attached to Apollo already." I stated. Which it is true, they have either held him or stayed by him. "We feel really connected to him for some reason." Jenson said, looking down at Apollo. "He is lucky to have you both." I said. I can't believe I went my entire life thinking everything was normal, now that I see what I have missed out on it makes me want to hold on to everything that much more. I wonder if I have any more family. 

A sudden sadness washed over me when I realized how much I could have missed out on had I not mated with Tye, I would have never met the twins and I would probably still be back at the house doing goddess knows what, I needed to remind myself to send a silent prayer to her later thanking her for all of this. My mind kept wandering back to when I was a child, I should have realized something was off because of the way my mother had behaved but then again she has always been really selfish when it came to literally everything. If there was no gain in it for her she wouldn't lift a finger for anyone. It took a lot of adjusting to get the witches to actually trust me and come to me with all their problems and know that no matter what I would help in any way that I possibly could. 

I looked down at my son who was currently being smothered in attention from the twins and I soaked in every bit of it. I could rest my mind a little more knowing that Apollo will grow up in such a wonderfully happy family mixed with all types of people. This is a first for our races and I am glad we are trying to set everything the right way but I felt a sudden need to figure out if I had any more family that was out there somewhere but I knew right now was not the time to look for them.

Maybe when all of this is said and done I can really go look for whoever was forced out of my life. I know I shouldn't have punched my dad but he should have done something to let the twins know that he wasn't dead. I mean what about their mom? What about her family? They deserve to know that side of their family. I will have to see if they even want to find them but for now I will just enjoy the time we have been granted together.....
