The next day I woke up. Feeling hazy. My head throbbed and my body was releasing a lot of heat. I was only 5. My best friend had almost died in front of me. I shook in my bed and let tears escape. I was in my bed and I looked beside me where my mom sat beside me on my bed. I couldn't stop having nightmares about what happened. Has she been here the whole time?
"Mom why are nightmares so scary?"
"Well my lil pup, they are normal when you're a pup"
My mom left my room and I could hear her yelling at someone outside my door.
"You needed to be there and you weren't! She could've been the one hurt! I don't care about an omega I care about my sweet baby girl"
I frowned and got dressed. I didn't like that people treated Natia differently cause she was omega. She is my best friend. Today was weird, Natia was normally waiting for me with the driver to take us to school but today she wouldn't be, she is still at the hospital. Arthur came down stairs with Dean.
Dean and Arthur were always the last ones to get up.
"Hey are you okay Amarís?" Arthur asked hugging me. "You should tell me next time you decide to go out at night okay?" He smiled at me and gave me the same look my big brother gave me when he was scared for me. He gave me a hug.
"Lilly pup be careful please" was all that Dean said. Then he hugged me, the hug again gave me the same chilling shock thru my body. He laughed. "You are full of electricity Lilly pup" I giggled and started to look around for my bowl of cereal. Then the best thing happened.
"Hey lil pup" said my dad. I was shocked he was home! I jumped up in his arms. My dad even tho he was always busy. He was the kindest man around. Unless he was mad. My mom said once that dad wasn't always the sweet kind guy he is. But he changed when he found out she was his mate. She tells me that my mate will always love and care for me. I tell her I don't need a mate I have my family and she laughs.
"Daddy are you home for good? Can we go eat food when I come home, my best friend is hurt daddy"
My dad frowned and nodded, "yes lily pup I will come to your school and pick you up today!, we will get food and after pick up your brother and Dean too"
I jumped off his arms and jumped up and down! "Daddy is home daddy is home"
Mom picked me up, " come my girl and have a quick breakfast you're running late"
She handed me a cookie, called granola. They're the only cookies I was able to have in the morning.
It always either had chocolate chips or strawberries in them. I preferred the ones with strawberries, they were sweet.
I realized the boys had started to walk out the door. So I hurried and hugged my mom and dad.
"Mom I love you, daddy I love you" I said then
I ran out after Arthur and Dean.
The day at school was fun. We learned how to make traps. And also our abcs in both our ancestor language and English.
My brother and Dean came to give me lunch during break time. They brought me a bowl of fruit. With a piece of chicken.
"Amarís I'll see you at home. Dean and I are getting picked up by mom."
They ran off. I almost forgot daddy is home and we are getting food.
I went on thru the day just thrilled to get out of school.
"Dadddyyy" I yelled running to him as he waited outside the door.
"Hi my princess" he caught me in his arms and spun me around. He was the only person I ever liked calling me princess.
My dad carried me to the car. " how was your day my baby girl?"
"Everyone kept asking about Natia. Everyone said I couldn't protect her daddy! Is it my fault?"
"No baby, you're little there is nothing you could've done. You were brave to even bowl!"
My daddy pulled me in for a long hug, for the rest of the day I tried to forget about her and enjoy my time having my daddy.
In the car we listened to music from when my dad was young, like queen. We sang along, my favorite was the one where you got to clap along.
We went and had food at the pack diner by the house. They served my favorite kind of food wings and fries. Even tho I could barely eat spicy. I just loved the flavor.
"Hello sir"
"Hi there. I'm gonna have a raw diet plate. I want it fresh. For my daughter she wants wings, give her 5 wings with ranch on the side and fries. To drink give us tea. Thank you" she finish writing down all of it and daddy telling her she was dismissed. They all respected dad.
"Daddy when do you leave again" I frowned looking down.
"Next month lily I'll be home for a little longer than normal"
"Why daddy?"
Well he explained that he had business in town. Specially with the random rogue attack that happened last night.
When the food was brought to us I let out a happy squeal. I munched it all down.
Dad laughed as I ate.
When we got home. I found Arthur and Dean were eating at the dinner table.
"Hey lil sis" my brother said cheery eyed for some reason.
"Hi big bro" I said going up to him and hugging him.
"Why are you so happy?"
"Well because I got a lesson on shifting today, and about mates and i think it soundsAWESOME"
I smiled, "I don't get it! Why you need someone when you have your family already"
"You're too little you don't get it"
"I wait until I am older to get big kid stuff" I said and sat at the only stool left, the one next to Dean. " Hi Dean"
He looked down at me from his burger and smiled. "Hi little pup"
"I don't know hun! I really don't" my dad responded to my mom when they walked in.
"My girl gets home and doesn't come say hi to her mommy?"
I jumped off my stool and ran to mommy. "You forget mommy when daddy is here don't you?"
I shook my head and gave her kisses all over her face.
After dinner mom and dad and the boys sat down to watch a movie. We watched a scary movie called chucky, I hid in daddy's arms the whole time.
Uncle Jake joined with auntie Alison, they were both Deans parents. When it was finally 9 pm I was almost asleep in daddy's arms when mommy came and scooped me up in her arms.
"No no let me do it." Daddy took me back and carried me up to my room. " my little angel it's time for bed." Daddy helped me change into my pjs and then tucked me in bed.
My mom came into my room and tucked me in bed too. I love the days daddy was here. Mom is the best but daddy always treats me like a queen. He read me a bed time story about our ancestors.
Tonight's story was about soul mates, or how we werewolf's call it true mates.
"The very first two mates ever were a young girl known by the name of moon. With a guy by the name of Helio. They didn't know this yet but when they were little they were given each other's heart. Moon got half of Helio and Helio half of moon. When they grew up something brought them together fate did. They had such a strong love and connection to each-other no one could explain it. But it was soon found out that it was because they completed each other. By the time that they were able to mate. They knew that they were each other's, other half. Now till this day, the moon goddess and God Helio help us find our other half, without our other half we would die."
When dad was done telling the story I was fast asleep. Mom was looking at dad like he was the only man on this earth.
