Chapter 13: Part 11

When we arrived, we walked into the bakery and saw that Granny and one other person were working at the moment. When Granny saw us, she smiled and said to follow her. We followed her to a booth and sat down.

“Okay kiddos, your waiter will almost be with you he is just getting change and signing in,” she said. “That’s fine Granny,” I said to her. She left to go help out at the counter. As she left, we looked through the menu. We heard a door open and as soon as that door opened, a smell that I thought I would never smell again came through my nose. My wolf yelled mate in my head and as soon as I heard that my head snapped up to the door to meet the eyes of a person, I longed to see for the last 2 years.

“You’ve got to be kidding me” I heard Zain. “Nope I also see him,” Kieran says. “Is that really him?” Andrew asks. “I think so” Ria replied. “No way,” Carlos said. “I think that is him,” Kasey said.

It was Dillion, my mate.

In the week that went by, I started to plan the baby's birthday, which is in 4 weeks. I was thinking of taking them to a zoo or an animal park. I know that Maxi wants to see animals and that Sage wants to see fishes, so maybe a park which has both. This week went by so fast that I almost thought it was a dream.

When it was Friday night Granny Claire called to ask if I could come in for a few hours to out, because the other person who would’ve worked this weekend, was out sick and couldn’t come. Of course, I said I would come to help out, it was a good chance to get cake for the babies and myself again. Luckily Daine is here today already to help out with the babies.

“Okay Daine are you sure you will be okay,” I asked her. “Yes, Dill I am fine, now go before you are late” she replied. I put on some shoes, kissed both Maxi’s and Sage’s cheeks and left to catch the bus to work. When I got off the bus, I walked to the bakery and remembered that I needed to get some groceries for home. I made a mental note to get them after work.

I walked to the back of the bakery and went through the staff door. When I got to the staff room Granny Claire was already there. My wolf also started acting up again and I had no reason as to why. I asked him but he just said he doesn’t know why and feels like something will happen. I just said okay and told him to calm down a little so that we could get through the day.

I walked to my locker and put on my work clothes. “Dillion, my grandchildren and their friends are sitting in a booth in the café, can you please go and serve them” Granny Claire asked me. “Sure, Granny Claire” I replied. “Thank you, you are the only one I trust with them because I am sure that if I ask one of the other servers, they will probably just flirt with them,” said while laughing.

I also started to laugh and told her I would be out as soon as I was done signing in. I walk through the staff room and through the kitchen to get to the café. I greeted the bakers and walked through the kitchen door. When I opened the kitchen door, I started to rethink all the life choices I made over the last two years.

The sent that I longed to smell in the last 2 years, the sent that I dreamed of having with me at night, or when the babies were born or when I longed to be held, that sent drifted up my nose. My eyes shot up to the only person I knew who this sent belonged to. My eyes shot up and met his eyes. The person I wished to see, but I also wished I didn’t see, because then I need to reveal everything now.

My wolf howled in my head and yelled mate. Nash sat at the booth, where Granny Claire said her grandchildren and their friends, with Nash was Andrew, his older brother, Ria, his younger sister, Carlos, the Alpha of Blood Moon Pack, Zain, Kasey, and Keiran. I was shocked at seeing them all here. So, then I guess Nash, Andrew and Ria are Granny Claire’s grandchildren.

I quickly took a deep breath to calm myself and went to the booth to take their orders. I so wanted to run to my house, grab the babies and leave to go to a new place, but I know I wouldn’t be able to escape him this time and if I ran now, his Dominant Alpha wolf would wake up and I know I won’t be able to outrun a Dominant Alpha wolf. I may be strong and fast but who in this land can beat Nash Saint Storm, the Dominant Alpha and next-in-line Alpha of Storm Pack in speed and strength? The answer is no one can.

So, I accepted my faith, calmed my racing heart, swallowed the urge to run away and went to take their orders. “Good morning, ladies and gentlemen, welcome to our fine bakery this morning” I greeted them with a smile. “With what can I get you guys, and girls, started with” I asked them. I so wanted to run away and go and hide somewhere with the babies, but I knew how it would turn out this time. I maned up and stood my ground to take their orders.

I can’t leave Granny Claire hanging like this. “You’ve got to be kidding me,” said Carlos. “Dillion” was the only thing Nash said. I shivered at the sound of his voice. It affected me much more than I thought it would and I knew they all could see it. I looked at all of them, some held shock, some helped happiness and some relieved. “Look, we will talk later, please control your pheromones in the café it will affect the rest of the customers, I just have to work until 12 today, so if I finish, we can talk after I finish,” I said to Nash in a soft voice.
