Chereads / Broken Mate's / Chapter 7 - Meeting the family

Chapter 7 - Meeting the family

I sat in my office waiting for the evening to come as i finish up the work i had forgotten and suddenly as if a calling breaking through the silence a series of sad notes from an untouched piano and it brings me out of the work and i look at the time and realize we havent got very long before we head over to the meal decide to go ask her id she ants to start getting ready i stand there just watching and listening to her play and eventually draw myself away from the door frame and to her side I lean over and wipe the tears away from her face as she plays silently and I draw her out of musical trance .

"don't you want to get ready ?" I ask her she cocks her head almost questioningly " to meet my family and my commands? " I reply to her silent question. She jumps up from the bench and makes her way out of the room her fluffy socks shuffling across the floor and my hand lingers over the ivory keys before i stand and make my own way to get ready. I watch her for a moment as she looks from her two outfit choices and looks completely lost on which to choose.

"i think this one" I say wrapping my arms around her waist from behind and leaning my head on her shoulder and i feel the shiver the runs down her spine. She takes the outfit of the white jumper, blue jeans and brown boots and makes her way into the bathroom stopping to press a kiss against my cheek as she goes. I head into the closet pulling out my own black clothes and heading into one of the other spare bathrooms.

We walk towards the sitting room and i hear her heart rate begin to increase in speed and her hands begin to shake and i grab her waist and pull her besides me smirking as her heart rate increases due to our proximity . her hands stop shaking as the mate bond calms her.

"We dont have to if you don't want to " i say softly trying not to make this worse.

"n..no it's..s okay , like you said i am a Luna " she smiles at me trying to hold her confidence and lays her head on my chest and we stand there for awhile her pressed against my front. She pulls away but i keep my arm wrapped around her waist and we continue to make our way to the garage where my multiple cars and motorbikes stay , i pull her to my side as i make my way to my favourite car, dodge charger (1969). I open the passenger car door and watch as she blushes and close her door and make my way to my side and buckle myself in and start the car and pull it out of the garage and make my way to my parents house on the other side of the pack grounds where sibling , betas and TIC all wait her arrival anxiously. I start to fret over Beau and how he will react towards her , although he doesn't really speak to anyone his eyes speak a whole other story, he judges people of first glance and i'm nervous in case he does not like her.

Atlas and i have been raising him since everything happened and he was only 2. I pull into the driveway of the elaborate home and watch as Indigo bounds around the living room and smiles and squeals as she sees Emmy step out of the car . I watch Emmy as she takes a look at the house and the surroundings and I begin to walk up towards the entrance and she rushes to my side her steps lagging and she hides behind me shying away from the house . I laugh as the door violently swings open and indigo comes bounding out of the entrance way .

"Hi I'm indigo and I'm the female beta and lorcans mate " she starts " we are going to be best friends".

" indigo " I start " calm down " I say hiding my nervous mate behind me

" indigo " lorcán says strolling out " leave the poor girl alone " he continues wrapping an arm around her shoulders and pulling her back. Emmy stands shyly behind me avoiding the conversation and lets my body hide her own from indigo and her mate .

"lets go inside " i whisper into her hair as i rub my nose along her exposed hair laughing as she shivers . i hold my hand out to her as i take small steps towards the house entrance and she rushes towards me grabbing my hand as we continue to make our way inside of the house . i lead her into the living room where they are all sat on the sofa chairs and they left the love seat to us . i watch beau's face and stare in shock as his face lights up in joy when he looks at Emmy and he walks over to her and pulls on the edge of her jumper and holds his arms out to her as he wishes to be picked up and without hesitation she leans down and puts him on her waist and starts to introduce herself " hi i'm Emmeline and who may you be?"

We all hold our breaths to see her reaction towards beau's lack of speech however our jaws all drop as for the first time in awhile beau responds

"hi i am Beau. i am Alexandra's little brother" Emmy looks confused at all of our reactions until Atlas answers her unspoken question

"He doesn't really talk to anyone much and usually doesn't react well to change"She nods as Atlas speaks

Emmy cocks her head confused as she looks at beau, Atlas then me . I sit on the seat next to Atlas as Emmy takes the love seat with beau sitting on her lap and she looks calmer as she begins to play with Beau messing about with his hands and everyone eventually stops daydreaming and pulls themselves out of the trance as i clear my throat as my wolf sends images of Reyna and i playing with our own little baby .

My third in command stands and introduce himself "hi Emmeline i'm luca nice to officially meet you luna " she nods unsure of what to say in response. she goes back to watching beau and playing with his hands . i pull my phone out and take a picture of her playing with beau and capture her gorgeous smiles towards beau almost crying as i hear beau laugh along with her . Atlas stands up next and starts to introduce himself

"hi i'm Atlas i'm Alexandra's twin, the better looking twin "he winks at her causing me to growl at him. I smirk at him as Reyna mutters "debatable" she looks up fearful as she realises she was caught

"thank you for the compliment baby, " I whisper and laugh as she blushes a deep shade of red . We sit through everyone else introducing themselves . I sit still most of the way through just watching her and beau connect i see them all take glances at them during the conversation almost waiting for something to happen as we talk and we are all still do confused as to why beau is allowing this to go on as he never likes anyone near him or touching him for more than a few moments . We talk for awhile until it's time for the pack dinner and I go to take Emmy up to our room as I don't believe she would want to attend the dinner but instead she decides that she wants to go
