I walked down the stairs the next morning and bumped into Evan when I turned. He chuckled as he grabbed my arm to keep me from falling even though I wasn't going to. "Well good morning to you too."
"Hey Evan, yes good morning." He looked behind me. "Where is your guard dog?"
I rolled my eyes. "Hopefully still sleeping." I grumbled.
"While I've got you, Bailey got called into work. I was on my way up ask you, can you watch Tyler today?" I gave him a smile because he knew I loved that little boy.
"Just leave me his carseat before you leave." He kissed my cheek before pushing past me and going up the stairs. "He's in his highchair." Evan called back, I went into the kitchen to see his adorable little self fisting a slice of a strawberry.
"Hey handsome." I grabbed a wet cloth and wiped his hands and face clean before picking him up. "What do you want to do today, huh?" All he did was giggle and reach out for another cut up strawberry, I picked up a piece and gave it to him.
Evan came back i to the kitchen and gave me a smile. "I'll put his carseat by the front door." I nodded giving him a smile.
I lifted Tyler's hand and had him wave his dad bye. "Tell daddy bye, Ty. And that Aunty Brooke is going to feed you nothing but sugar today." Evan shook his head while waving bye to us both.
I turned to Tyler and smiled. "Do you want to see Grammy today?" He clapped his hands together with excitement even if he wasn't fully sure who I was talking about.
I walked out of the kitchen and rounded the corner, I found Scott coming down the stairs just as I was about to go up them, I waited at bottom for him to come down before I went up to grab my jacket and purse and a few things for Tyler.
"What plans do we have for today amoureux?" He asked not giving me a single glance.
He knew I was still upset with him about last night, he had no right bringing my personal business into my conversation with my brothers.
"Me and Tyler are going to see my grandmother today. But we are stopping for breakfast before we get there." He nodded his head and turned around going back up the stairs.
I really did hate inconveniencing his life like this. He shouldn't have to follow me around just because I want to go and see my family.
I followed him up and stopped in Tyler's room first. I set him on the floor by his toys and grabbed his diaper bag and began filling it with everything I might need. I even threw a few toys in it for him.
I took a quick glance at his outfit, I am going to have to change it because it's cold outside. I picked him back up and walked over to his dresser and sorted through his various outfits, once I settled on the one I liked I went over and sat him on the changing table then stripped him of his clothes.
"Lord have mercy, Tyler. What did you eat?" I asked when I realized he needed a diaper change too. I already had a sensitive stomach when it came to smells due to my pregnancy, but I didn't want to throw up on my nephew, so I fought through it.
Once he was changed and dressed I grabbed everything and left his room and went towards mine.
I grabbed my things and walked back down the stairs to see that Evan had placed the carseat by the door like he said he would.
Scott walked past me as I set the things I had on the ground so I could place Tyler in his seat, but before I could somebody knocked on the door.
I stood back up and unlocked the door then opened it. My eyes widened when I seen who it was. "Why are you here? You know you aren't supposed to be here."
I pulled my nephew in front of me but kept him secure. "I came by to tell you that I'm sorry." I scoffed at his apology, he's only sorry because he saw how bad I looked.
"And yet it still didn't stop you from being with somebody last night." He looked at me a little shocked.
I took a step closer to him and pulled his collar aside. "Our mark hasn't faded because I rejected you, Ryan. It takes weeks for that to dissapear." I told him a little softer.
"I didn't know that you would still feel it, Brooke. I'm sorry." I felt Scott behind me so I turned around as an idea popped into my head, I knew Scott could read my mind.
So when I turned to him he had a smirk on his face. I leaned up and smashed my lips to his.
I had to admit that his lips were softer than I thought that they were, I parted mine and once my tounge touched his I swear I felt sparks all over my body.
One of my ha ds came up and tpuched his face softly as I pulled away and loomed into his eyes.
Hearing a growl then somebody clear their throat we pulled away completely.
I wanted to blush but i also wanted to show Ryan how it felt, even it it was just a partial pain.
I turned back to him and he had a glare on his face. "Why did you do that?" He glared at me then Scott. "That pain you felt? That was miniscule to what I feel when you have oral or actual s*x with another person, Ryan."
"So that was payback?" He growled.
I returned his glare. "That was just the beginning of what I want you to feel before your mark fades."
He growled again then turned on his heel and left.
I let out a breath and turned back to Scott. "I'm sorry. I didn't mean to use you like that."
He let out a single chuckle, and my god it sounded majestic. "Amoureux you can use me like that whenever you want, because that kiss....was amazing." That time I did blush like crazy.
He took Tyler from me and placed him in his carseat for me, then picked him up. "Let's take my car. It's bigger." He said and walked out.
I sighed and followed him, he did have a bigger car, a nocer and newer model Escalade too.
Once Tyler was all strapped in I set his diaper bag on the seat next to him and hopped into the passenger seat. "I take it you already know where my granny lives?" I asked him and he nodded his head.
"Your parents told me where every single family member lives just in case of an emergency. And that if something happens with you I need to get you and the little one in the backseat to the safe room in their home."
I was a little shocked that my parents have went to that extent to have Scott put me and Tyler in the safe room over everyone else.
"It's because you are pregnant. They want all of the females in the family there as quick as possible, but since you are the one at risk right now that's the current percussion." He looked over at me.
I really hated it that he could read my thoughts. But I was also kind of glad at the same time because I didn't have to explain things out for him to understand what I wanted.
"Your powers? What exactly can you do?" I asked stealing a glance from him. "My mother and my siblings have alot of powers, so far I've only seen you use 2!"
He was quiet for a few moments before he spoke. "Well my dad was a Warlock and my mother a Lycan. So my father had a few powers, but not as many as your mom that's for sure." He smirked at me and I blushed again.
"But I can take the pain from another no matter the cause, it's like I absorb it and I feel it myself.." I looked at him in shock. He did that for me knowing he could feel every single bit of the pain that I was feeling when I rejected Ryan, all of that anguish? That pain was no joke.
Yet he continued. "Obviously I can hear your thoughts, read your mind. But I can also unlock magical abilities in others that have not yet surfaced or been there before." He frowned at that last one.
"What do you mean by 'unlock magical abilities' I'm not following." I asked him.
He sighed. "My sister was 4 when she passed due to the Oleander outbreak. But before that she was able to receive the gift of flight because I was with her." He raised an eyebrow. "She died happy with my parents holding her."
"How old were you?" I asked him softly and he glanced at me. "I was 11!"
