The Rejected Daughter Of An Alpha novel Chapter 12

"I was telling my dad about the meeting, he had some questions, and I was on my way back and if I'm completing the task I won't respond to the commander." I say, texting my dad and telling him that I made it back. He may not car, but I always text the person I just left and let them know I'm safe. It's something mom always made me do when I was younger.

"Honey! Is that you?" Mom yells from the living room.

"Yeah mom!" I say walking into the room followed by Axe.

"How was your meeting Sweetie?" Mom asks smiling. Marcus smiles at her and Andrew does too, obviously happy to see her so happy. Jason is also there and he makes eye contact with me and smiles, obviously happy to see his wife's eyes.

"It was pretty good. Everything is set up and it will be carried out tomorrow." I say crossing my arms and standing with my feet shoulder length apart.

"You sound like you're about to carry out a hit." Jason says chuckling. I stay silent for a moment and Andrew looks at me with raised brows.

"You're not actually carrying out a hit right?" He asks with wide eyes. I can't help but smile and chuckle deeply at him.

"No I just have another meeting set for tomorrow and mom has to accompany me so we won't be able to com over tomorrow. And I have a couple things to do so it may just be mom and a guard for a couple of days." I explain looking between the three boys.

"Ok Sweet Heart. Just make sure to come visit again before you leave." Grandpa Marcus says with a sad smile. I can see it on all their faces. I know that their sad that they missed out on my childhood and they want to make up for it, but what they don't know is that I won't be that far away.

"I'll make sure to." I say with a smile.

"I hate to interrupt but we do have to go." Axe says somewhat apprehensive. He doesn't want to break up the family reunion but he also has work to get done.

"What did I do to deserve you? I must have been a saint in a past life." He says after a moment of just looking at me.

"I was wondering what you did to deserve someone as bad as me." I say with a chuckle.

"Please tell me that you don't actually think bad about yourself?" He asks. When I don't answer he scoffs and looks at me as if I've grown three heads. "You are one of the best people I know of and I've only known you for three days."

"Maybe that's the problem."

"In the three days I've known you, you have taken care of your mother as if you were the mom, you've done everything you can to help out around the house, even though you're the guest, you've handled the children like it's no ones business, and you've proven yourself to be a wonderful Luna. After you left today, your mom spent an hour talking about how amazing you are and how much she loves you and everything you've ever achieved and do you know how hard it was to not show how much love I feel for you in those moments? I know things that your mom told that I don't know if you would have told me. She told me about so many things you did when you were younger that were just instinctive for you. You are a wonderful person and will make a marvelous Luna when you are given the chance. So yes, what did I do to deserve you? What did I do to deserve the most amazing women to ever grace the earth with her presence?" He says getting up and walking towards me with every declaration. When he finishes, he's standing directly in front of me, leaning forward to look me in the eye.
