Rejected But Pregnant novel Chapter 5

How could your brothers treat you like that? The way they don't stick up for you is just sickening. I'm sorry, I know you've told me not insult your pack and brothers a million times before, but I can't help it. You are way too nice and admirable for your own good.

Look, my offer still stands, my whole pack agrees you should come and live with us. I've told them about you and they really want you to live with us. Just leave the shit hole and live with us, I would never let anyone treat you like they do.

You're Pen Pal,

Bane Mathews

P.S. How's Xavier?'

Looking at the email, I had no idea what to write back to him. I just couldn't believe Bane's pack wanted me to live and join their pack, someone wanted me! Tears pricked my eyes as I smiled. Looking at the clock, I quickly shut the computer screen and headed for the stairs, it was 3:5pm and I had to go pick up Xavier.

Slipping into my beat up Acura. I headed for Xavier's school, managing to get there just as the bell rang. Xavier ran into towards the car with an excited grin on his face and a note in his hand.

"Hey, Kai!" Xavier answered happily.

"Hey, Xav," I greeted him happily. "Who's the note from?" I ask slyly, shifting my gaze towards him once in a while. A hot flush of red filled his cheeks as he stared down at the note, a dopy grin on his face.

"It'sfromLily," he mumbles looking down.

"Huh? What did you say? I didn't hear," I said, poking fun at him.

He sighed, his fingers playing with the note in his lap. "It's from Lily," he repeated louder, "There, I said it," he grumbled.

I laughed at how embarrassed he sounded. "Well, what does it say?" I questioned him while I wiggled my eyebrows as I took a right, heading towards the grocery store.

"Umm... She wanted to know if I wanted to go see a movie with her on Saturday," he whispered, a smile curling on his lips again.

"Wow, that's two days away. You fourth graders move fast," I mockingly said to him, getting a smile in return. "While the rest of us are going online to get dates, you kids seem to get them in minutes in real life," I jokingly added.

"You're getting old Kai," Xavier teased back.

Once we got to the grocery store, I pulled out a cart and began walking around and gathered the ingredients for tonight's dinner, lasagna.

"Why do you have to everything in the house? Why do they treat you like this Kai? I don't like this," Xavier declared as he eyes one of my bruises with distain.

I give him a smile in return and eat some food with him. When he finishes eating I get up.

"Okay, bedtime."

He pouts, "But Kaaaii! I'm 9 years old now. I don't need a bedtime."

"Yeah, that pout backs up your statement." I tell him laughing. His pout droops even more, "Okay, okay, my little man time to go to sleep"

"I love you Kai, I wish you were my sister." He whispers.

"Me too, handsome." I whisper back, "But I thought I already was."

"You are. We're just making this official now though." he said smiling at me. I close Xav's door behind me softly after I give him a peck on the cheek.

Heading down the hallway half blind, I did not notice anyone was in front of me. I collide with a hard chest almost falling to the ground, although an arm wraps around my waist and holds me to a warm chiseled chest.
