Chapter 51

Scott's POV

"You left me!" She whispered. "I needed you and you left! Do you have any idea how that made me feel? I blamed myself, I told myself that I deserved what he did and for you walking away because I allowed it to happen."

"I lost my will to keep going because of that, Scott!" A sob left her and my heart broke hearing it.

"One of the worst feelings in the world is sitting in your house, and feeling like you need to go home." She looked up at me. "I don't feel at home with you anymore." She hastily wiped away her fallen tears.

Is this what she thought would hurt my feelings?

Because it fucking did.

I felt like she ripped my heart out and stomped on it then put it back in my chest. It hurt more than her slap did.

"Why did you wait to say anything? Weeks has went by without you saying a word to me! You have let this all fester up inside of you to this point of no return?" Her eyes closed and more tears fell from them.

"I've been trying really hard to get over it. But I can't." Her voice cracked, I couldn't even blame Ryan's bitch ass for this issue she and I had right now. This was all on me. I should have stayed.

"Because I'm here I'm stuck. Because I have a family and I can't hurt them." She said again and for the first time in a while tears brimmed my eyes. "I can't hurt the people I love, and that includes you!" She pointed her finger at me like she hated the fact that I was included in that now.

"But I'm hurting!" She cried pointing to herself and I found my feet moving towards her again but she stepped back again so I stopped. I just wanted to comfort her and hold her. "Scott, I'm fucking hurting and I don't want to be here anymore."

"I don't want to do it anymore."

Her eyes met mine. "I want to give up, but I can't hurt the people I love. But the people I love don't know that I am hurting. And it fucking sucks." Her eyes even through her tears and sorrow flashed once, twice, thrice. They stayed blue and my heart thudded not understanding why they kept doing that.

"I wanna fucking give up. I don't want to do it anymore." At this point she was just repeating herself. And I couldn't take the heartache in her voice and even though she tried to back away I ran towards her and wrapped my arms around her in a tight and warm embrace, giving her all of my love I could in the hug.

"I don't know what to do." Brooklyn sobbed into my shirt before I felt her wrap her arms around me. "I just want to give up." She said again and I started rocking her, trying to ease off whatever emotions she was feeling even if it was for a little bit.

"Let's go home!" I mumbled but she shook her head while still crying. It broke me hearing how broken she was, it takes alot of strength to suffer alone but it takes more to ask for help.

I called Ezekiel forward, I knew he didn't want to after hearing what she had just said. But we needed her to calm down before she made herself sick. My canines elongated and I subtly moved down to her neck and kissed her mark before sinking my teeth in, remarking her.

She gasped and tensed up pushing on my chest refusing to submit to me. "No, Ryan don't. I promise I won't ask you about them again!" She said and I growled and bit harder making my canines sink deeper, and once they hit bone her hands stopped pushing on me then she stopped fighting me all together.

I removed my teeth and caught her just as her entire body went limp in my arms. "It was for the best, amoureux!" I told her softly, Brooklyn's eyes refused to close as I walked back to the truck.

"Ryan I'm sorry!" She said before she passed out and I wondered how she confused me for Ryan so easily and so quickly. It confused and angered me.

Caleb's POV

"Dad, is there a free room available in the packhouse?" I asked my father and he looked over at my mother who was sitting at her own desk.

"Keela honey how many are left?" He asked my mom.

She flipped through a notebook and then looked over at me. "About half a dozen, why?"

I moved and allowed the person behind me to step inside their office. "Because your neice broke up with me." Scott said and they looked at him in the same shock that myself Danielle did whennhe told us.

"Why- no that can wait, where is she?" My mom asked as she stood up from her seat. "She didn't reject you did she?" She asked and he shook his head instantly. "No ma'am."

"I had him put her in Dani's bed!" I told mom and she went to walk out but I grabbed her arm gently. I walked out with her as Scott and dad began speaking.

"Mom, when you notice it don't say anything. I have a feelimg she didn't want anybody to know." I whispered my heart hurting when I smelt it.

She stopped and looked at me confused. Her scent was so different since I last saw her, not only was it the human scent on her but also the fact that she was pregnant too.

I shook my head and gestured to my sister's bedroom. "I've already called, Jordan. He was the only one avalible, he will be here soon." I told her and she nodded her head.

My mom opened Danielle's door, and my mother's face turned pale. She looked at me and I sighed. Scott said as much when Danielle and I asked about it. We thought that Ryan was around her for the reason for the smell of human being on her so strongly.

Oh how wrong were we!

Danielle glanced up at us as she wiped a wet cloth over our cousin's flushed skin. "Why did he bring her here and not to one of her siblings?" Mom asked us as she went over and sat on her other side.

"He said she wanted to come here. She tried to call me but the call disconnected!" Danielle told her and mom sighed. I went over and sat at the end of the bed.

"He worried and wouldn't tell us why!" I said. Mom took the cloth from Danielle and wiped her cheeks gently, her makeup was slightly messed up and anyone with eyes could see that she was crying due to the streaks going down her face.

My mom turned her head to clean another spot but growled.

"Mom?" I asked. She took the cloth and gently placed it on Brooklyn's neck. Her hair was covering her shoulders and she was wearing a jacket so I didn't notice anything on her.

"Dani, go get your father and Scott!" She told her firmly. Danielle nodded her head and got up and quickly rushed out of the room in quick strides.

"Mom, what is it?" I asked her. But she took a deep breath and held up her finger. I knew whenshe did that that she was trying to calm herself down to I left her alone and let her work through her emotions like she always did.

Normally it worked, but as the sound of feet getting closer was heard I could basically feel her building anger.

The moment the door was opened her head snapped to it and I cringed away and got up from the end of the bed. I did not want to be in between her and who she was angry at. I made that mistake once and got a book in the face for it. She was throwing at at dad but I walked in front of it.

"You hypocrite!" She snapped and I looked from her to the man in the doorway. Scott held a sad look on his face but said nothing. My mother stood up and walked over to where he and my dad were at.

My sister came over to me and held my hand with both of hers. She never has liked yelling or fighting, always had disliked it.That's why she and Ashton had such a perfect relationship. They never fought.

"Keela, honey calm down," my dad chuckled nervously. My father knew how bad her temper was, the omega bloodline was always a fiery one. My aunt Clara's friend and Delta Female, Josie, was the same way too.

Although I think my mother was a little worse because she was also Luna.

"No, he made our neice, your neice submit to him!" She snapped at my dad while glaring at Scott.

He scrunched his brows. "Yes, he told me. He said she wouldn't calm down, Keela!" He told her.

"Brandon I want you to take a deep breath then reflect on what I just told you." She said desperately. I looked over at my cousin and saw her fingers moving a little.

She was waking up.

I let go of my sister's hands and went over and sat down next to her and grabbed Brooklyn's hand in mine to try and keep her somewhat distracted. And by the crash I heard I knew my dad had finally caught on to why my mom was so mad.

"She's pregnant? You of all people know how dangerous that was! You could have killed the baby!" He growled at him.

"She wants to fucking kill herself. I had to do something to calm her down man. I couldn't let her keep going on and on about how much she wanted to give up! Not again!" Scott snarled at my dad.

I smiled when her beautiful brown eyes finally opened, although they weren't just those big brown eyes I was used too, they were tinged with blue now. "Hey sugar!" I murmured to her and her eyes moved to me. I could tell she had been crying due to how red her eyes were but I didn't comment on it. Not after what Scott just said.

Her bottom lip quivered and she moved it between her teeth so I wouldn't notice, but I did. I tightened my grip on her hand, she was my favorite cousin she and I were closer than the others were.

Danielle must have noticed she was awake and came over and kneeled down by the bed and moved up so she could place her head on Brooklyn's shoulder. The moment she did though, Brooklyn closed her eyes tightly and I could tell she was fighting off from breakikg down in front of us.

"Amoureux.." She rolled onto her side and burried her face into Danielle's hair. Her shoulders shook lightly and she held my hand tighter. "Can I say something to her? She needs to hear it, perhaps she'll believe it comeing from me and not a doctor." I looked over my shoulder to see him holding his arms up as my parents stood in front of him.

"Fine!" My mother gritted her teeth and moved out of his way. Scott walked over and stood on the other side of the bed but did keep his distance.

"The baby!" He stated. "She isn't a product of what he did to you, Brooke. She is a product of our love, she is mine not Ryan's." He told her and and sob left her.

"You don't know that!" She told him, her voice scratchy.

"Yes I do. Just look how fast she's growing. Lycans grow so much faster than a werewolf does." Scott explained. I looked back at her then down at her belly, I couldn't tell with how she was laying and with her jacket covering everything up. Was she showing already?

"I'll leave now. But can I call you tonight to tell you goodnight." He asked her and she scoffed at him.

"You threw my phome in the woods!" He instantly went to his back pocket and pulled out a phone. "I went and got it before I went and got clothes from the apartment for you then brought you here." He told her.

"Brooke, you don't have to say anything. Just allow me to tell you goodnight." He asked her again. "I won't sleep a wink without being able to do it. I didn't sleep the week I was gone to get Chris and Leroy."

"Then you should know how it feels for me not to beable to sleep!!" She told him and got up from the bed, the second she was on her feet though she swayed but managed to catch her footing. I grabbed her arm and stood next to her.

"Let me walk with you." I offered and hooked my arm with hers. She nodded her head and we walked past my parents and out of the room and down the hall and out the back door.

"Is the old treehouse still up?" She asked me softly.

I smiled and nodded my head. I had just fixed the thing last summer with dad. I told him that me and Amiee were trying for a baby so he was happy to have it fixed up.
