We have one last night here and my mom is ordering pizza.
Pizza is my favorite food and Sofia was craving it and so am I, but mine is for another reason. I don't eat out much because fast food is not as good these days. I spent three years of high school working at a taco shack. To this day, I am not a big fan of them.
But pizza, I have never mastered that art so let's leave it to the professionals.
"Honey, do you think we should get a tossed salad and some boneless wings for the men?" They are all watching some kind of sports game. I think it is football, but I haven't been into football since, junior year.
Don't get me wrong it is an amazing sport and I do enjoy it as long as I am not watching it with my family. They get so wild and into the game. It is not a bad thing, but they make a huge mess and we clean it up.
All the boys watch it except Miguel he will not leave my side. Mom told him if he is a good boy for today then he can spend next weekend with me.
So far he has been nothing but an angel.
"Mom, do you think they have enough snacks?" I asked as I glanced into the living room making sure they do because the only time they will let me in there is during halftime. Which is when the pizza should get here.
"Miguel why don't you go and grab your coloring stuff so me and sissy Sofia can color with you." His face lights up as he goes and gets it.
He comes back, carrying way more supplies than he can handle. Leaving a trail of crayons behind him. He drops all the stuff and goes back to pick up the few things he dropped along the way.
"All done," my mom walks in and nonchalantly said,
"I can't wait till you're a mom, mammà has to wait for less than a year." I huff out a sigh and roll my eyes.
We are mated so that does mean we have exactly 18 months after we fully complete the bond.
I am marked, but there is a ceremony that we have to do to fully complete the mating bond. That part is normally the part you get pregnant at.
It starts with an act of true love, then a gift. Your wolves begin their bond making it hard to separate the pair and then you confide in your mate your deepest fears and secrets. The last part is really hot sex, which normally leads to becoming pregnant.
But we have done it all, except for the whole sex part, it has been a week and a half. It's not like I can make love to him here, not with my parents in the room next to ours, and not when you have little brothers who like to barge in.
But, hey when we get home I can't wait to make love to him on every surface. I don't exactly know if we have been trying to finish it or if we are just doing it because it seems right.
I strongly am not ready for a child, or I don't think I am. I just have way too many doubts about having children.
I know I want them, just not now. My life is less than what I would call planned. I could finish college soon and start doing what I love. But I think I am doing what I love, just not the way I want it.
"Well honey, how do ya like what I drew." She says as I stare up at her dog she drew.
"It is nice." I smile as I hear the doorbell ring.
I get up and walk towards the door. The pizza guy hands me the huge stack of pizzas. I take them and set them down.
I turn to get my money, I feel something press up against my hip. Then I look at the man, he has a wicked grin. Looking down I see a gun.
"I heard you took down my little sister, come with me or I will shoot." A smile spreads across my face.
"Go Ahead, then you are going to be dead." My little brother runs into the room and my smile fades.
"Shall I shoot him instead?" He asked pressing the gun harder to my stomach.
I am incapable of resisting now.
"Miguel go get mom and tell her I am talking to my friend and to not worry." He ran to go get my mom and I am dragged out the door, the gun now pointed at my lower back.
"Now you will get in the car before I get my pack to kill the ones you love." I get into the back seat. The door closes and the car starts. I didn't even see him get it.
I hope my mate can sense how much I need him right now. Come on baby feel me, sense my pain.
The windows are tinted and we have been driving for about an hour. 2 lefts 4 rights, that is all I know. The driver won't even talk. The car is cold and my stomach is churning, I feel a little sick.
I hope they leave my family alone, and or Anthony comes and helps me. I don't know where we are going but right now we are about to switch cars. They put a blindfold on me, there are hard rocks underneath me and a rather strong male behind me at all times, he smells like peppermint and cigarette smoke. I get shoved into the back of the car now squished in between two huge men.
"Who is she?" A deep voice growls.
"The one we need for the trade, we want Elizabeth." Oh, so that is the name of the bitch who tried to kill my mate.
"I hope she is dead." I can feel a harsh grip grab the hem of my shirt and a hot rancid breath on my face.
"If she is you are going to be too." They say through gritted teeth. My stomach begins to churn again, oh boy this is going to be a bumpy ride.
"Boss, the little lady doesn't look too good." One of them admits poking at me.
"Good thing we are pulling up at our stop." A familiar voice says.
Wait, it can't be? No, way! It can't...
