Chapter 12

Walking up to my parents front door I was debating on turning around and leaving.

When I did decide I was going to run away hands stopped me midturn and turned me back to the door.

I watched in horror as it opened revealing both of my dads. My face was extremely red with how they were looking at me.

"Hey honey!" Daddy Noah said, I could hear the teasing tone when he said it too.

Scott nudged my shoulder and I snapped out of it some. "Hi daddy." I looked down then back up at them "Is mom here?" I asked them.

"She is, come in and get something to eat." He said grabbing my hand and practically pulling me into the house. "So how was your night, Brooke?" My dad Wyatt asked me.

I looked away from him. "It was great."

But what I really wanted to say was 'it was one of the best nights of my life' no pain hit me nearly all night, so that is a blessing. I needed my sleep, for both me and the baby.

Speaking of the baby, "Daddy?" I stopped walking and looked straight at him, he turned around with a smile on his face. "Yes baby girl?"

"Your mother, grandma Wendy?" I seen his jaw tick, nobody liked to bring up this part of the past. "Can I use her middle name if my baby is actually a girl?" I asked him quietly.

He smiled again then reached out and cupped my face with his hands. I felt so much love and warmth in his touch. "I think grandpa would love that!" He said then kissed my head.

I wrapped my arms around him and gave him a tight hug. "Thank you..."  I mumbled.

I would have used my mom's mother's name but my uncle had used that with his youngest daughter who was stillborn, it felt wrong naming my baby after her now that my Uncle Chase had a daughter who was born asleep.

"Your mom is on the back porch with your poppie." He whispered before pulling back. I leaned up and gave him a kiss on the cheek then did that same to my other dad.

I walked away from them but I could still feel their eyes on me. I moved a little faster and once I got to the back door I opened it.

My mom was laughing at something my poppie had said, he was also laughing. I didn't want to interrupt their little moment. So I stood quietly by the door, Scott right next to me his arms crossed as he looked around for any type of danger.

I shook my head, did he really think that somebody would harm anybody here? My mother and all of my siblings had strong powerful powers, just one link to any of them and they'd be here in less than a second.

"Hey baby" I snapped out of my thoughts when I heard the voice of my mom, it wasn't like my dad's, it wasn't teasing but it was full of curiosity.

I gave her a sheepish smile. "Hey mama. Can we talk when you're finished?" I asked her. She returned the smile and nodded her head.

"Oh no, we can finish this anytime." Poppie suddenly stood up, he leaned down and kissed my mother's head before walking over to the door where Scott and I were at. He kissed my cheek before he entered the house.

My mother patted the seat beside her. "Come here." I slowly walked over to her and sat down next to her. The second I was seated she pulled me into her, her face partially covered by my hair, then I understood what she was doing.

She was trying to see if she could smell who I was with the night before.

I never told her if it was a human or a pack member, I'm also postive she would fire Scott as my bodyguard if she found out he'd slept with me.

She might have actually smelled Scott's scent all over me if he hadn't worn protection, but when I pulled back she furrowed her eyebrows.

Did I read the situation wrong?

Her eyes shot to Scott. "Where were you?" I suppose that answered whether I'd read her wrong or not.

"I was close by." Was his nonchalant reply. He indeed was close by, for 3 hours he was close. For 3 hours he kept me happy and more satisfied than Ryan ever did.

Speaking of Ryan, he called me nonstop the entire time. I eventually grabbed my phone at one point and threw it across the room, when I got it this morning I realized I'd broken it.

Scott gave me his phone so I called and cancelled the plan that I had alongside Ryan's and made myself a new one. I even managed to get a hold of the bank, they said it would take a little bit but would transfer my money to whatever bank I needed them too, I just had to find a new one.

"And you agreed to do what you did? Knowing that Ryan would feel it?" I felt a little defensive, it almost sounded like she was feeling sorry for what he'd felt.

I narrowed my eyes a little. "Yes I did, he's lucky I waited until after I'd rejected him to do it. It didn't hurt him as much as I hoped it would've, not like it did me." I said a little harsher than I intended to.

Her eyebrows both rose up at my intentions to purposely hurt Ryan. "Mom, he hurt me. Me doing what I did was not only the bit of revenge I could think of, but also the best thing I'd ever felt in years."

I heard Scott stifle his chuckle then clear his throat, thankfully my mother didn't notice that because she was still in shock at what I'd just told her.

Slowly she composed herself and relaxed a little bit. "Well..." She started. "I know all about getting revenge, so I can't be upset with why you did it." She paused for a moment. "But I do want to know - who was it that helped my baby without leaving their scent?"

I put my mask back on my face, if I tell her who it was, she may kill him.

"It was me ma'am."

I closed my eyes and sighed deeply. I placed my hand on my face to hide the embarrassment as it crept up on me.

It wasn't really a bad thing to admit that he was wonderful with the way he subdued me. I was only a little embarrassed because Scott was basically a stranger to me. I have only known him for a few days and willingly fucked him, and enjoyed all of it.

But to my surprise she never said anything.

She was livid when I told her about me and Ryan's first time together, we always shared alot. Me, her and Bailey have always been close enough so that if we had a question about our mate or how to change things in the bedroom we knew we could trust moms honest opinion about it.

When I looked back up at her as she looked at Scott I was wondering if her wrath was slowly starting to brew, or if she didn't know how to respond to what he said.

"I hired you to keep her safe, to protect her, not work your way into the bed with her." She whispered slowly.

"Yes you did, but you also told me to keep her from harm...her feeling him sleeping around, even after he'd seen the mess he'd made on her body. I didn't know how else to make her feel something better and forget what he was doing. So I told her sleeping with somebody was better than feeling that pain."

My heart skipped a beat, he did offer me the security I needed last night. But did it screw with my head some? Perhaps. I also knew it couldn't happen again either, I can hold on until our marks are gone.

And the flood of sparks I'd get when he hit a certian spot confused the hell out of me.

This is why I wanted to speak to my mom, I wouldn't have given her a name but I would have told her enough to help me figure out why it was happening.

"Mom?" I called out and her gaze drifted from Scott and back to me. "I have to speak to you about something!" I turned to look at Scott, "Alone please?" He nodded and left me alone with my mother, I turned back to my mom.

"It has to do with what happened last night.." I mumbled, I heard her giggle a little and that made me relax some. "I'm sure..." Is all she said.

"Well, it's a couple things actually." She nodded her head. "Durring the course of our sexual activities, I would feel sparks. Like the ones I used to get from Ryan, only stronger. It even happened when I kissed him, should I be feeling thwm?"

"It's only when your intimate?" She questioned, I nodded my head. "That's mostly why I think he made the pain go away fully, I haven't felt anything since on Ryan's end."

Her eyes sparkled with something I'd seen when she looked at Bailey and Evan. Appreciation. "And...your wolf? What does she think?"

"She's been quiet. I think she's healing, getting the rest we didn't get before." She nodded her head again. "I can ask Clary to talk to Selene if you think you need to know that badly why you are feeling them."

I wanted to ask Zena to ask the Moon Goddess herself but she was asleep before Scott and I were finished. "Please?" I also couldn't tell her my wolf wasn't as stromg as she used to be, I hoped by rejecting Ryan that she could get back her strength but it hasn't happened yet.

"And how is Zena holding up? I know that she isn't strong, I can feel that coming off of you, or the lack there of." She asked, genuine worry was evident in her voice.

I didn't want to tell her how weak my wolf was and how dulled my senses have become. So I gave her a smile and said; "She's healing, slowly but healing."

She grabbed my hand. "I can heal you so that it don't take weeks to get her back to full strength. If you didn't tell me that she was still there I would've pegged you for wolfless." Was my aura that faded now?

"A powerless wolfless Alpha daughter. How screwed up would that be?"

Her fingers brushed my cheek. "You're still a witch, your powers just haven came through yet. I can feel the power in you, Brooklyn, you just haven't let yourself unlock that part inside yet."

She always told me this, it didn't mean anything to me though. My siblings all had powers before their first birthday. I'm 24 and I've still yet to get any.

"Just be patient, Brooke. Trust me on this?" I gave her a single nod and got up.

"Please don't tell my dads about Scott. You know how protective they are." I begged. "Riley, hasn't even looked at me since dad threatened to cut his balls off for asking me to the prom." I said, my cheeks flushing red as I thought about it.

She giggled and stood up too, mom wrapped her arm over my shoulder as we made our way back in the house.

I smelled food being cooked and my stomach instantly turned, I made a gagging noise and got out of my mom's embrace.

I rushed to the bathroom but I barley made it past the sink in the bathroom when everything came up, my breakfast spewed all over the floor along with a red substance.

I was hoping that this didn't happen again but it has. I have to call my OB and make an appointment. I know that the baby is fine because I can feel her moving around, but this has worried me.

I shouldn't be throwimg up blood!

"Amoureux?" I fljshed the toilet and stood back up. I went over and unlocked the door and cracked it some. "I have to clean up the mess I made. I'll be out in a second."

Before I could shut the door fully he grabbed the door and pushed it open. He looked at the floor then at me, then back at the floor.

"How lomg?" He questioned. I pulled myself out of the shell ii had cowered into. "Only a few days..." I whispered as he scowled down at the mess I had made.

"We're going to the hospital. Now!" He ordered me, I felt his aura wash over me like a warm blanket. "Can I atleast clean this up? And then go eat somthing." He turned to me and nodded his head once.
