Chapter 84: Thomas

Trent looks to the gate in the rear-view mirror and widens is eyes at whatever he sees. I turn my head and damn near release my hold on Creed. The gate closes automatically and shimmers like it's fading from sight. I turn to look back at Trent and decide fuck it I need to know what the hell just happened. “dude what was that?” He shrugs and says, “No clue. I’ll ask mom later right now let’s get them inside.” He says as he nods towards our mates and dries up the gravel driveway.

I look at the house and it’s gorgeous, It's a 2-story black mansion with some ivy growing up the sides like it was designed to do so. The window sills are a deep maroon and the roof is gray. From the outside it's beautifully built. There is a wraparound porch with a swing and some rocking chairs. Hell there is even a little garden in front of the porch. Fuck I wouldn’t mind living here from now on.

We slowly approach the home and it seems to get even better the closer we get. Once were within range the garage opens so Trent pulls the car in and parks it. The garage door closes automatically as he puts the car in park. He sits back and looks around a little bewildered. With a quick shake he gets to work. “Alright guys let's get them inside while they are still sleeping and do what mom said and shift. We need to get our scents in the house to help keep them calm when they are taken over by their heat. We don’t have much time so let’s hop to it.” Trent says as he unbuckles and open's his door. Tyler does the same than opens my door for me. I pick a sleeping Creed up and carefully climb out of the car without disturbing him. I turn to see Kill trying to do the same thing much to Trent's frustration. I guess the Alpha wants to put her in his arms.

Tyler and Trent walk in front of us and open the door for us to enter our home for the next week or so. This looks like the start of our new life. As we enter all I can smell is laundry detergent and cleaner. It almost makes me want to sneeze but I’m glad that is all I can smell. I'm not sure how my wolf would react if there were any other scents but ours in this house. We follow Trent to through the mud room and kitchen till we reach the living room. It's sunken in with built in couches and a flat screen on the wall above a brick fireplace. Shit this looks cozy. With the deep corners it's a perfect place for someone to sit comfortably with a mug of coffee. Go mama Paxton. She knew this would be the perfect place to settle in for our mating.

Trent looks around before he heads up the stairs. We follow up and fall more in love with the place. There is hard wood flooring throughout the home with some carpet on the stairs. The second floor has another seating area with a balcony attached. Trent and Tyler open all the doors on this floor and find 5 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms before they get to end of the hall on the opposite side of the seating area. There is a set of double doors that Trent opens with a flourish. We have finally found the master bedroom. It’s freaking huge, in the middle of the room is a sunken in California king bed with small lips on the sides. Almost like the sides are reaching up to build a wall. I smile because I can imagine all the ways that will be used. It seems I’m not the only one cause Tyler has to shake his head as he looks at the other doors in the room. One leads to a full-sized walk-in closet and a huge ass bathroom.

This bathroom is set up to fit like 10 people in it without running into each other. There is a huge claw foot tub dead center of the room, and a decent size walk in shower. There are his and her’s sinks and the actual toilet is off to the side with a door to close it. I whistle at the set up “Damn this is a bathroom I could live in forever. I wonder what that tub feels like?” I ask no one in particular. I want to walk closer and try it out but Creed moves a little in my arms and lets out a tiny groan. Shit bath time can wait. I turn towards the bed and wince at the nakedness of it. “Um, what are we putting on the bed guys?” I don’t want to lay them down in an unmade bed. Tyler looks around for something when Trent walks in the door holding linen and what seems to be clothes.

what the?” I question him and he just nods his head. “Ty help me put these sheets on. Then T you and Kill lay them in the middle as close to each other as you can. Ty when we get the sheet on can you go to the car and grab the linen from the cave, please.” He nods and gets to work putting the bed together. I'm still confused about the clothes in his hands so I ask him, “What's with the clothes man?” He smiles and looks down at said items. “Mom thought ahead of time and somehow scrounged up some of our clothes with our scent saturated them. I thought this would be good for them to use if they want to build a nest.” Shit that's smart. Now I understand why she wants us to shift and spread our scent around the home. “smart dude.” I tell him. He and Ty finishes putting the bed as together it can be while they are sleeping.

When they give the all clear me and Kill gently lay Jazz and Creed down next to each other and back away with our hands held up, hoping and praying they don’t wake up. After a few seconds of nothing but them scooting closer we all breathe a sigh of relief. “Alright Ty go grab the stuff out of the car. Kill, Thomas undress and shift. Leave your clothes on the bed then meet me downstairs. Ill shift after Ty brings everything in.” We nod and start undressing. It feels kinda weird doing his in front of them but not enough to stop me from doing what I can to help them thru this hard time.
