Chapter Six

The next day I woke up feeling excited, full of energy. My possessive Alpha agreed to let me go home today to see my family and my best friend, Ally, on one condition: Tanner comes with me. I was okay with it, Tanner seemed like an okay guy and he seems to have Christian's up most trust. I knew I would be safe with Tanner there with me while Christian was away on Alpha business. 

I spent my morning with Christian, reassuring him I was going to be just fine without, as did Tanner who had arrived fairly early packed and ready to leave. He was excited for taking a break from being Beta and leaving things in Colt hands for a few days. Even though Christian only agreed for one day and night, Tanner said he was going to let me stay for three days and be responsible for his actions once we return. At first, I was worried it would make Christian extremely angry, but Tanner reassured me that Christian won't worry as much knowing he was with me.

After Christian left to deal with his duties, Tanner and I headed to my small town where I recently found out was filled with rogue wolves, including my family and Ally's. The car ride was quiet, but it was comfortable for us. We both enjoyed the quiet. In the air around us, you could practically feel the excitement in it that came off of us both. Me, for finally going to get the answers I've been wanting to hear, and Tanner for finally getting a small break. Plus, he had been curious himself why my wolf was late, so hearing it first hand was a major bonus for him. 

I couldn't help but to think of how Christian's lips felt against mine when I first arrived at his house. It was warm, and the electricity zapped throughout my entire body, causing me to want more of him as I can possibly receive, however it was the right thing to not let things get carried away and to let the heated air to overwhelm myself. I didn't want to throw myself at someone that I barely known, even if he was my mate. I wanted to know the true Christian, the Alpha. 

Snapping me out of my thoughts, Tanner spoke softly, "We're here, that's your house, right?" He asked, pointing at a two story home. Nodding my head, he parked in the drive way. The small house next to us was Ally's. The front door open, revealing a red head freckled face girl who was on the brink of tears when she saw me. She ran to me, wrapping herself around me and soaking my right shoulder as she informed me of how much she missed me. I patted her back softly, repeating her words to me to her as I looked up at her.

"Marci, I've, we've, all missed you so much. It hasn't been the same without you, please tell me you're staying." Her eyes begged me to say the words, but my heart knew better. I knew Christian would expect me back at his house eventually no matter how much I protested, even though a small part of me was okay with it. Since I was already falling the possessive Alpha. 

Nudging her head aside, she narrowed her eyes behind me who I imagined she was looking at Tanner who waved awkwardly towards us holding his bag and mine in his hands. Smiling back at Ally, I told her it was okay and spoke softly to her, "I'm not staying for long, unfortunately. I came back to find answers, and I assume you know my questions as well, don't you?"

Sighing, she nodded her head, "Yes, I do. Go inside, I'll be over there soon with my family." 

I agreed, and lead Tanner inside my house where I found my father and mother both sitting on the love seat. It would appear my mother had been crying for days while my father held onto her, comforting her. I froze at the contact remembering the explanation Christian had used when he explained to me what mates were. They were truly made for each other, I could see the love in my mother's eyes as she wiped away her tears and soaked herself in my father's warmth. 

They froze, sensing two presences in their home and when they notice me they both smiled widely and engulfed me in their grasp. Giggling, I held them to me as well.
