ELLA'S POV
I woke up the next day to find my mate gone. However i felt a tingle in my heart . I kind of knew , that he needed that sleep . Maybe i'm just being paranoid . Honestly it kind of felt good to have him next to me . Even though he never touched me nor did i get to .
Steven and sage occupied almost all day . I even recovered , though not completely , i was able to walk on my own .
Today me and the kids decided to bake .
" How about a red velvet cake El?" Steven asked me .
" Hey i asked for cupcake ." Sage argued , causing steven to pout . Dear goodness he was about to tear up.
" We have all day . How about both .?"
" Yes!" both of them screamed together . I could see the sparkle in their eyes . I could also see adoration in their eyes . I wonder why though . I mean they definitely have their parents to adore why me then ? .
We started with cupcake . In between we started messing around with the flour . Throwing it all over each other . Laughing , joking , fooling around . I Definitely loved this. Better than my life as my uncles personal best warrior .
Infact i love to be loved . But not as a warrior but as for whom i am .
" Ella ?" Steven called out to me to which Sage gave his attention to as well.
" Yes baby?" i cooed back.
" Can i call you mom?" he asked with all his hope to which my eyes bulged out . I never expected that . My heart sank at his words . I didnt know what he was thinking but i knew one thing . This kid hasnt experienced a mothers love .
He frowned when he didnt get a reaction from me . I smiled and replied " Sure my prince charming ." He smiled and held his hands in the air for a hug . And i bent down and carried him , kissing him on his cheeks. Sage joined saying he wanted to do the same and we had a group hug .
After about 3 hours we were done with baking and were having a piece of everything we made , when suddenly Taylor barged in .
" Woaw this whole kitchen is a mess. What the hell were you guys doing in here ?"
All the three of us looked at each other and then the cake and cupcakes.
When taylor eyes caught both the items his eyes were dancing ." Woaw thats for me thanks ." he said and stormed towards the baked food.
Not even after 5 minutes , Santino entered along with a blondie on his side. Barbie blondie.
" WHAT THE HELL IS HAPPENING IN HERE ?!" he yelled. I just stood there looking deep into his eyes with the slightest fear.
" Luna baked and its delicious ." Taylor replied . " Oh hi Sally. Um..alpha." he questioned with one eyebrow . They were definitely close friends so Santino didnt midn even if taylor questioned him .
" I'm having something delicious too " My mate said looking at the blondie and i could literally hear my wolf whimpering on the side of my head .
I'm planning on leaving this place anyway. And thats when i'm fully recovered . So should i be hurt that my mate doesnt want me ? .
" But alpha ..." Taylor started but was cut off by him.
" I will see you soon taylor . We have some things to discuss . But firat i need a break ." he said and walked with his toy . I surely didnt miss that glare though .
