On my way ‘home’
1647 Words
As we sat in the backseat of the large car and the house got so small I couldn’t see it anymore. And then it hit me. I was moving, I was starting a new life. A life with James and his family. His family!! What if they don’t like me? What if they come between us? The nerves were getting to me and James noticed it right away.
“What is it babe? Are you nervous?” James asked me, sounding really concerned.
“Just a little bit” I lied, I was crazy nervous.
“You have nothing to worry about. They will love you.”
“Really? You’re not just saying that to calm me down?” Which he most likely did.
“I promise. My mom was over the moon when I told her last night that you were coming with me. She has waited for this day for a while now.” That didn’t really help my nerves, the longer she had been waiting the higher expectations she would have of how I should be, right?
“Tell me about them. Your family. It will help to know a little about them before meeting them.” I think I was trying to convince myself that it would help.
“Okay. So Serine, my mom, she’s a classic mom. The oversharing, kind and loving type and like I said she is really excited to meet you.” He gave me a sweet lingering kiss on my hand as he held it in his. “My older sister Lauren is twenty nine and married to John my Beta, that you met at the ball. They have a beautiful baby boy, Kyle, that is cuteness itself.” His love for the boy was present in his whole face. “You will love them, they will remind you of Marcus and Rebecca actually. Lauren is what keeps John sane and human sometimes. Just two kids less.” I giggled at his words, damn our kids would be cute.
“They sound like a perfect match.” He looks at me and he doesn’t have to say anything. I was thinking the same thing. We were a perfect match.
“I mentioned Amy my youngest sister, she’s only thirteen. My mom had it hard raising her on her own after our father died but she’s just like fireworks of joy. You could never guess that she lost her dad so young.” He got said the memory of his father. I put my hand to his face and gave him a sweet kiss. He took a breathe and continued. “The we have the twins, Lucas and Hannah.” Lucas is your typical spoiled brat if I’m being honest. But not in a bad way, at least not all the time. He has his moments I guess. Still single and is using his statues with the girls.”
“Oh I know the kind. Met Jake? My i***t and overprotective brother?” We both laughed. Our families were more alike than I thought.
“And that leaves Hannah.. she is to me what you are to Jacob. My baby sister and I would do anything to protest her and she is the same towards me.”
“I know how she feels then. I know how restricted I would be when Jake finds his mate. It will take some time.”
He just looked into my eyes with pure love, like it had always been like this and it always will be. He put his hands to the side of my face and kissed me with such passion. It didn’t take long before I deepened it and was straddling him, kissing him fiercely. Just like before the rest of the world floated away even if I knew that some pack member I didn’t know was oh so close to us. His hands were on my thighs within seconds, pushing my dress up while I was working on the bottoms on his shirt. I could feel the now obvious bulge in his pants pushing up at me. I quickly reached out and started to free him of the captivity. Just as I got the bottom up the driver coughed which pulled us back down on earth.
“Sorry to interrupt but we are ten minutes out.” Kayleigh had broken through and growled a bit along with James at the interruption.
“Thank you Paul.” He answered him awkwardly as he caught his breath.
James looked at me and my now red face, he still has lust in his eyes. He mind linked me that we would continue this later. I could see it killing him as I moved of his lap and back into the seat next to him. I fixed my dress and hair quickly as I looked out the window. I had to calm my inner wolf down and looking at James wasn’t an option right now and I could sense that he felt the same about me. I tried to focus on the landscape that past us by. It was all open fields covered with wildflowers, it was beautiful. We passed a couple of trees and began to drive up a hill and after a minute or to I saw it. This beautiful three story mansion. Modern and sleek, with floor to roof windows. It was beautiful. I was in awe.
“You like it?” He asked even if he could sense my adoration of the building in front of us.
“Like? It’s beautiful James!”
The car came to a stop right in front of the big front door. I still couldn’t move, I was just taking it all in. Suddenly my door opened at James’s hand reached out for me to take it as I stepped out into the fresh air.
“You made it!” James mom Serine said as she came out of the double glass doors and walked over to give James a big hug. The only type of hug that a mother can give to their children. She turned to me with love in her eyes. “And you must be Zara! It’s so nice to meet you honey. I’ve waited a long time for this day.” She embraced me too.
“Nice to meet you too mrs Duran.” I said.
“Oh please, call me Serine honey. Mrs Duran was my mother in-law.”
“Okay, Serine.” She finally let me out of her hold.
“Mom, let her breath please.” James told his mother.
“Oh sorry dear, I’m just excited.”
“It’s fine, calmed my nerves a bit.” I said, kind of regretting it. Not wanting to show any weakness.
“You have nothing to worry about dear. We don’t bite. Except maybe Kyle but he blames it on only being one.” We all laughed at this, she was so easy and her presence calmed me. Like a true Luna should.
“Well at least he’s cute.” This tall beautiful woman came out of the same doors as Serine had moment before. Her blonde hair ended at her shoulders and even if you could see the lack of sleep in her eyes she still looked beautiful.
“That he is.” James agreed with the woman and gave her a hug. “Hi sis. This is Zara. Zara, this is my big sister Lauren.”
“It’s good to finally meet you Zara. Don’t listen to all the things this i***t tells you. And please call me Lo.” The woman said.
“Hi, I will try to remember that.” I laughed a little, she really reminded me of my family.
”You did good brother. Who would have thought you could have such a pretty mate? No offence Zara” she was clearly just messing with her brother, something I knew oh so well.
“You have to little faith in me sister. But she is amazing, can’t argue with that.” His comment made me blush, his word had this weird power over me by making me blush all the time.
“I can’t really complain that much either.” I said and he put his arm around my side and gave me a sweet kiss of my forehead.
”Woah, chill with all the love brother.” I could immediately see what James meant about the spoiled playboy look he had going for him, this must be Lucas.
“Oh shut up Lucas” they did that weird guy hug thing. I will never get that.. “Lucas, this is Zara.”
“Hi Lucas” I greeted him
“Thank you for rescuing my brother from his loveless life.” It didn’t even take a second before James was at him for behaving like a fool in his eyes. I didn’t care, I would have done the same to whomever Jake would mate with.
“I swear to god Lucas if you don’t stop this whole thing right now I will send you to the guard.” By the way he said it made it sound like that wasn’t the first time he had said it. I put my hand on his arm and it calmed him in a second.
“It’s okay James, he’s just being a brother. I would have done the same to Jake and you know it.”
“Wow, that’s new.” I looked at him confused. “He usually take a couple of hours to calm down and you did it in a second. Impressive.” I blushed a little as I felt kind of proud of having that effect on him. “So is Jake your brother?” Lucas added.
“Yeah, I have three actually. Only daughter.”
“Oh that must be hard. But kind of nice to not have sisters stealing your stuff growing up.” Lauren joined in.
“Yes, I had a best friend for that though. And having only brothers keeps you protected.. ALL the time.” Lauren and I laughed as we both knew the feeling of having brothers even if Lauren was older than hers. “Jake is crazy overprotective but Marcus let up a bit after he had his first pup. She stole all of his time, until their second one. And now it’s almost time for their third. The first boy tho.”
“Oh kids are the best, most of the time.” She joked. “You said you had three, what about the last one?”
“Aaah, Christopher. My baby brother that mated with my best friend. It was kind of weird at first but you get used to it I guess”
