Chapter 146
“Well let’s have some breakfast and then ask her” Lily said standing up as they all walked towards the kitchen. I knew I had to talk to her, we hadn’t talked since last night and I wanted to apologize, I was an ass but goddammit I almost lost her once I couldn’t bare going through that again.
I pulled Lily back a bit “I’m sorry” I said as I pulled her into my arms, she looked up at me with a glare. “I was an ass, Lily. You’re right I was too harsh and I shouldn’t have said what I did about Melissa.” she still wasn’t wavering “damn it Lily! What do you want me to say? I almost lost you once because of rogues and that damn near killed me. I just saw the rogue and my only thought was you and Aurora’s safety.”
Lily stared at me for a few moments before sighing. “I love you, Ethan. And I hate that you had to go through that. But I’m here, I’m fine. No one will Aurora because they won’t be able to go near enough to try. Between you and me and her uncles she’s the most protected girl in the pack. And I can take care of myself.” She kissed me gently and immediately some of the tension I felt melted. “You need to stop blaming yourself. Now come on, let’s go, I’m hungry.”
Lily and Nate made some eggs and bacon for us all. We sat eating, joking around when Aurora ran into the kitchen and threw herself in my lap. “Daddy! Daddy! Daddy!” she said hugging me fiercely. Aurora was three years old and she was so beautiful. She had Blond hair like Lily’s hair used to be and green eyes like mine. But that was the only similarity to me, other than that she was Lily through and through in the way she looked.
“What’s wrong, baby girl?” I said lifting her face so I could look at her “Is Brandon teasing you again?” I looked up at Xavier. His son was a few months younger than Aurora and they were friends already but he always teased her.
“No daddy. I was having a nap and…and” she looked scared talking in her cute way, not spelling all the words right. “I had a wet dream”
Lily choked on her juice while Jim sprayed his right out. The whole table was silent and I was staring at my baby girl in shock.
“Y-you…had…what?” I stuttered out speechless.
Aurora looked exasperated and repeated “I had a wet dream, daddy. I dreamt that Uncle Adrian was teaching me and Aunty Nate how to swim and I started drowning and no one would save me”
Relief swept through me and I heard a few chuckles around the table “How did you learn the term ’wet dream’ honey?”
“Uncle Dave and Jim taught me”she pointed at the twins who scooted lower in their seats. I glared at them and then turned back to Aurora with a smile.
“You won’t ever drown, honey. We won’t ever allow it. Besides you’re learning to swim pretty fast. Don’t worry. Oh and don’t use the words ’wet dream’ again honey, okay? Just say scary dream”
“You’ll save me if I drown, won’t you daddy?” She asked me with those big green eyes that always made me melt.
“Always, baby girl” I kissed her forehead. “Now go play with Brandon and the other kids. the grown ups need to talk.”
“Okay daddy” she said and jumped off my lap, running out of the room to find her friends. I turned to the twins with a glare. Lily was doing the same.
“May I ask” she said in that scary angry voice of hers. “Why did you teach my daughter the two words ’wet’ and ’dream’ put together?”
“We’re sorry” Jim winced “I was telling Dave about the girl I met yesterday and how she called me to tell me she had a wet dream about me which then led to me going to her place and
“Skip that part” Lily said hastily Jim nodded and continued. “So she heard me and asked me what a wet dream was and I panicked and told her it was where you dream about water” For origınal chapters go to.net
“Idiots” Lily rolled her eyes “could you please be careful what you say and who hears you saying it. Thank god it was just this and not some other word”
“Still gave me a heart attack though” I mumbled and Lily laughed along with everyone else.
Jacob
“Come on, time to question the rogue” Ethan said as Xavier, Adrian, the twins, Lily, and I walked down the steps to where the cells where. Ethan pulled out the key and opened the door. He walked to the first cell and I faintly saw the figure huddled in the back. She wasn’t moving, not an inch as we all stared at her.
Ethan narrowed his eyes “stand up and come closer, rogue. We want answers” his tone was firm and though I expected her to struggle with the alpha command, like all rogues do, she immediately stood up and walked to the closer, to the center of the cell. It was then my whole body froze.
Unruly brown hair framed a thin face. Her eyes were big and frightened, brown staring at us in fear. Her clothes were tattered and dirty and torn in more than one place but I didn’t think about all that as my wolf and I recognized our mate.
A rogue
I couldn’t believe it. My mate was the rogue who broke in the pack house. But this still wouldn’t change anything, I’ll make sure she’s not working for the rogues and if she is I’ll make her break all her connections, but I would not reject her.
Celena
“why dd you break in?” The scary man from last night said.
