Chapter 45 - Chapter 45

Danica's POV

It was getting dark some music was playing in the background and the smell of the BBQ filled the air outside the cabin. We invited the nearest Neighbours over, this first family was older and had three teenaged daughters. They were rather helpful but had that teenage attitude about them. The second family were younger, and they had three sons similar in age to Kaden and Aden and they seemed to get on well and ran rampant outside near the deck.

I walked holding a beer in hand trying to remember names of the people I had been introduced to then saw Jenny throw her head back in annoyance. She turned toward the door and I followed her giving her a slap on her but. She jumped then shot me an annoyed smirk.

"This isn't Uni anymore." I nodded.

"I know, but you liked it." She laughed.

"Really if you pay me too much attention I might start thinking your meant to be my mate." I shrugged and we walked out the front to see a land rover the back filled with baby things. With a start I blinked. Jenny nodded. "See what I mean." I nodded then stopped as a tall and slender woman in black heals jumped out the passenger side of the land rover and looked to the cabin with an annoyed frown. She was wearing a pair of black stilettos and fishnets that vanished into a very short skirt. The top she was wearing was an extremely low halter neck and everything was topped off with gold jewelry. This was clearly a woman who liked expensive things. She walked to the cabin door and frowned as she looked to Jenny.

"Jenny dear, so good to see you."

"Hi Lisa, same. How are you…" She was cut off.

"Where are the boys? I have to make sure they're all right!" Jenny nodded and shouted. I stepped aside as the two bundles of energy shot up to us.

"I'll go and help with… that thing he's wrestling out the car…" Jenny nodded but I felt a little hand grab mine. I stopped and looked down as Aden held onto me his eyes fixed on Lisa. I walked to the car and he followed sacrificing his brother to Lisa. He seemed to be suffering slightly as she gripped his cheeks and landed a few kisses on his face leaving lipstick on his skin.

"Need help?" The big man stopped with a growl and slapped the plastic.

"Yeah sure… Stupid things…" He turned and ran a hand through his hair then staired as he saw Aden holding my hand. "Aden?" He looked up and his eyes narrowed.

"Hi. I'm the troublemaker you've heard of. Danica." I held out my hand and he went to shake it then started back and grabbed the stuff that began to fall out of the back of the Land rover.

"Fucking stuff…" He let a breath leave his lips then a cry began, and he rubbed his face. "Sorry, could you…" He pointed to the stuff in the back of the car, and I nodded letting go of Aden and taking the high seat out of the car.

"Don't worry about it." I took a diaper bag out and looked to the sheer volume of things that was there. How long was he planning to be here? Aden grabbed the highchair.

"I'll take this inside." He scuttled away with the chair and Derick looked up.

"Did he just talk?" He looked to me.

"Yes," I frowned. "I realize he's quieter than his brother but he's quite the chatter box." Derick stood up holding a really young girl in his arms and smiled slightly.

"He doesn't usually talk to strangers." He gave me a look and I could see the same breathtaking Blue in his eyes that the boys had. They definitely had much of their father's looks in them. I heard another cry from the car and he grunted.

"Don't worry, I'll bring her in if you don't mind. Just go and sit down with the others. I'll deal with this…" He nodded then reluctantly walked to the house. I opened the back passenger door and the little girl looked up at me her eyes were red and she strained against the restraints. I pulled open the child seat and she almost leapt into my arms her little lip quivering. She wrapped her arms around my neck and grabbed hold of my hair. I frowned then began to turn away when a sent caught my attention. I placed my hand into the child seat and yelped in surprise. It was really hot. I fumbled around and found the cars cigarette lighter. I looked around and saw where it was supposed to go just inches from where she had been sitting.

Derick's POV

Lisa finally came out of the bedroom. She had moved a lot of clothing into our room and somehow managed to choose the most sexiest thing there. It was a halter top that had a deep plunge and a short mini skirt she had worn before when we got busy in my office.

I turned my eyes away and waved a hand. She came close and ran her fingers over my body sending those intense sparks through me.

"Do we really have to go?" She moaned as we left the apartment.

"Yes… even if it's just for an hour." She nodded and we went to the elevator. I looked around as the doors closed and saw my grandmother shaking her head at me.

Mathew was out at the car and had tucked Maggy in with her blanket. He gave me an annoyed look as he closed the door then went back inside. I got in and started the engine and Lisa slipped in beside me her hand going to my lap.

'Dam it!' my wolf was getting out of control, and she knew it as she ran her hand to my dick and squeezed gently.

"We need to go…" I managed and she rolled her eyes and pulled her hand away. With a few breaths I drove towards the Red springs Cabins.

We arrived with Mathew following us to make sure I didn't turn around. I parked and leant over to Lisa for a kiss but she had already jumped out the car and was walking up to the house.

I rolled my eyes and went to the back to get the high seats out so the girls could sit and eat a dinner and hopefully not throw food everywhere. The dam chair stuck and I cursed.

"Need help?" I stopped with a growl and slapped the plastic.

"Yeah sure… Stupid things…" I turned and ran a hand through my hair then staired as I saw Aden holding a Woman's hand. "Aden?" I looked up and my wolf dam near fainted.

Time stopped as my breath caught in my throat and I staired at that smooth wavy mass of blood red hair blowing in the breeze and the two green eyes like oceanic pools I could drown in. My heartbeat loudly and I ran my eyes to her flawless pale skin and naturally pouty lips with just a hint of gloss over them. My heartbeat again and I was taken in by her body and it was like she had been sculpted just for me.

"Hi. I'm the troublemaker you've heard of. Danica." She held out a hand and every fiber in my body told me to shake it. I leant forward then started back as the mountain of stuff began to fall out of the back of the Land rover.

"Fucking stuff…" I let my breath out then a cry began and I rubbed my face. "Sorry, could you…" I pointed to the stuff in the back of the car and she nodded letting go of Aden and taking the high seat out of the car.

'How was that so easy to do?' My wolf raged as I made it around to the passenger seat where Maggy cried.

"Don't worry about it." I looked up as she grabbed the diaper bag and Aden grabbed the highchair.

"I'll take this inside." He scuttled away with the chair I looked up at him.

"Did he just talk?" She looked to me and frowned.

"Yes, I realize he's quieter than his brother but he's quite the chatter box." I stood up holding Maggy in my arms and smiled slightly.

"He doesn't usually talk to strangers." I was so happy that Aden was talking to someone. I was beginning to get lost in her beauty when another cry from the car burst into life.

"Don't worry, I'll bring her in if you don't mind." I hesitated unsure about a stranger looking after Lilly. She smiled and my resolve melted. "Just go and sit down with the others. I'll deal with this…" I nodded in a stupor then reluctantly walked into the house.
