FRANKLIN.
"Who is she, Franklin?" Davida questioned, emerging from the shadows, her hands clenched into fists, fury running through her blue eyes, sparkling as she stood under the moonlight.
Upon hearing her voice, Jane scrunched her face into a frown, turning around, her hands still wrapped around my neck as she scanned Davida from head to toe, arching her eyeballs at her with curiosity.
"Who is this woman, my love?" Jane asked, getting off me, but moving to my side and folding her arms across her chest, tilting her head to a corner.
I heard heavy breathing and turned to see Davida gritting her teeth against one another, looking like she just wanted to kill someone, directing piercing glares at Jane, who returned the same ferocity.
As I moved closer to Davida, trying to explain things, my wolf let out another groan, startling me.
"Mate". My eyeballs widened, my mouth falling agape as I realized I wasn't only mated to Jane, but to my mother.
"What the fuck?" I cursed out aloud, cutting the tension and glaring battle between the two women as they all dashed towards me, Jane especially who was standing directly in my face, purposely blocking Davida from my view.
I was about to reply, when.....
"Get off him". Davida snapped, warning laced in her tone, but Jane just rolled her eyes before turning to face Davida, edging closer to her, no sign of fear in her.
'Oh no! I didn't like where this was headed. I thought, suddenly feeling beads of sweat gathering on my forehead.
"Who are you, lady? Get the fuck out of here and stop bugging me and my boyfriend," Jane said, fuming, tossing back her golden hair elegantly, her head standing tall and meeting Davida's gaze.
"Boyfriend?" Davida repeated her words while directing her glare towards me this time. I immediately looked away, gulping down the saliva gathering in my mouth.
We were not together any longer. I made sure to end things with her before returning here, but how do I explain that to an angry woman?
I can't even believe she followed me all the way here. I threw a glance at Davida who was now having a staring contest with Jane. Her fists were still clenched and raised like she was about to punch Jane.
The silence between them was so dragging and long, but also terrifying. I had to do something so I made to intervene when Davida's glare immediately wiped off, being replaced with a sweet smile.
I reared backward from shock, and so did Jane who let out a gasp, covering her mouth in the process. It wasn't something that was expected.
"Nice to meet you then. I am his mother, Davida". She introduced and I pursed my lips, feeling something wasn't adding up.
'Shouldn't she be scolding me or Jane, why does she feel so calm?' I pondered, resting my hand on my chin, scrutinizing her with my eyebrows furrowed.
Jane let out another shriek, before jumping on Davida, giving her a tight hug that almost sent Davida reeling backward to the ground. As expected, David's expression twisted into a scowl.
I immediately went to get Jane off her, apologizing.
"I am so sorry about that; she was just too excited." I explained, and she muttered an " oh" before grinning.
"So you had a girlfriend, and I, your mother, had no idea about it?".
Though she asked with a smile, I could sense threats in her tone and knew I was in for it, but come on, I wasn't to blame.
"Not like you ever acted as my mother, for me to have told you". I replied, and all colors drained from her face, a look of hurt flashing across her face, with Jane kicking me.
"That was rude, Franklin. Apologize now". She ordered, while Davida just stood there looking at me in disbelief and probably expecting the apology, but she was in for a wait.
"I didn't lie now, did I?" I enquired, before grabbing Jane's hand and leaving with her, ignoring Davida's slow whisper of my name. I knew I hurt her, I could feel it, but it was nothing compared to the agony I have felt all these while to her ignoring me.
"So that's the bitch you don't have a good relationship with," Jane commented, once we were out of earshot, dropping all her earlier facade, and I immediately flung her hands away from mine, grabbing her harshly by the chin.
"Never in your life, call her such a name again" I sneered, warning laced in my tone and ready to hit a woman for the first time.
Jane's face fell in disappointment but I didn't care and just left her behind, deciding to just cut this festival short and head up to my chambers.
I was lying on the bed, deep and lost in thoughts, when she walked in, her face void of emotions as always.
"What do you want?" I asked, not bothering to sit up or look at her, my eyes on the colorful ceiling.
"End it with her". She ordered, giving no room for a no, but hell was I just going to agree with her.
"Why? I think I am old enough to decide who I can be with now, mother". I said, calling her that sarcastically and rolling my eyes in the process.
'Mother indeed'. I thought getting up from my bed and moving towards her.
"And since when did you start to care about what goes on in my life?" I made to walk past her, after asking that question when she suddenly grabbed me by my hand, her soft hand entwining her fingers together.
My body stiffened, my heart skipping a beat as my muscles tensed. At the same time, a jolt of excitement/ desire shot through me, as she kneaded my palm with hers.
"W -what are you doing?" I asked breathlessly, my words trembling.
"Shush" she whispered against my ear, her tongue licking the inner flesh, as she continued to tease my palm with her fingers, her breath fully on my skin.
A sweet smell, which was a mixture of Lavender and rose, drew me into her. I kept quiet, feeling alive and not remembering the last time she touched me.
My face broke into a smile and I was about to hug her when,
"What the heck is Mother and son doing?" A familiar voice shrieked, and panic set in me, my hands growing clammy as they trembled in Davida's who was calm and not showing any intention of letting me go.
'Was that...?'
