“Well, I have some things I’m working on, including getting to the bottom of the werewolves who hurt herafter she survived that fall… so, for now, I’m just going to get more information on that. There’s still a lot to do, but I do need Dad and Mom to know about her. After that, we will summon the members of the Sangue Pack who hurt her. Then there are the witches, I am not done with them,” I said quietly.
“There was a small incident here, too…” Chris started quietly, looking at his hands. Lola and Rose tensed, and I frowned.
“Oh, that bracelet is beautiful… so sparkly.” Raihana giggled, admiring Delsanra’s wrist.
“My baby gave it to me… what’s his name again?”
“Umm, I don’t know, hun, what’s his name?” Raihana asked, pouting.
“Oh, yes! The yum-yum… yes, Ray-Ray the yum-yum with a sexy bum…” She giggled, covering her mouth, looking so adorable.
Lola chuckled, snapping a picture of the drunk women beside us, but I simply kissed Delsanra’s hand before turning back to them.
“What issue?” I asked.
“Raihana got upset… because of me. And her powers kind of surged, and everyone felt it. I did tell your dad; he just said to cover it up… but I don’t think Blake fell for it. He kept on saying something was up…” Chris muttered. I felt his irritation at the mention of Blake and sighed.
“Damn… she needs to be careful. What happened between you two anyway?” I asked. Raihana suddenly jolted up. Her eyes flashed as she glared at Chris.
“I hate him… he hurt me.” Her eyes were filled with hurt, and I couldn’t deny that my anger at the thought of anyone hurting my little sister flared inside of me. My aura raged around me as I turned my gaze to Chris.
“Okay… I’m getting her to bed,” Rose said, standing up instantly. Ever the diffuser of situations. I needed to know, though.
“Let’s sleep on it,” Lola said firmly.
Delsanra shifted, turning towards me and wrapping her arms around mine, and closed her eyes. The tension in the room was strong, and I looked at Lola for answers.
“It’s between you, Chris, and Raihana. I would say the three of you need to sit down and have this talk,” she said, standing up. “Look, today Delsanra has come home. Let’s not end it with more worry. Let’s go to bed with our mates, and Chris, I’m sure you have someone lined up, right?” Lola said. He gave a slight smirk.
“Sure, that’s the best part of the day,” he remarked, but I could tell his heart wasn’t in it.
“We’ll speak tomorrow,” I said, frowning.
“Tomorrow. You do know you need to go to the Ahmar Qamar Pack? Your mom knows you’re back and wants you, Raihana, and Delsanra to go there as soon as possible. On a second note… what name is Delsanra going to use?” Chris asked, standing up.
“Delaina?” Lola added helpfully.
I shook my head. I didn’t want to have her even change her identity... but Delsanra was a name some had heard.
“Ana. She went by that before,” I said, gently lifting my mate’s body into my arms.
I tried not to look at her breasts as I carried her upstairs into my room. I opened the door, stopping in my tracks at the changes made. The room that had been rather minimal before had several new touches, from the diffuser that was filling the room with soothing scented oil to the lamps that were set around the room and the vanity table with the huge mirror full of jewellery and makeup.
I carried her to the bed, raising an eyebrow at the box of chocolates that sat on the side and a pack of condoms. I placed Delsanra down, looking at the small card with Raihana’s writing.
BE SAFE
Seriously… I picked up one of the squares of the extra-large condoms and tossed it down. She was crazy, but it was good to be home.
I looked down at my sleeping mate and hoped soon all our problems would be solved.
The following day,as Chris had said, Mom was expecting us there that night. Five messages and two calls from her confirmed that. It was one of the biggest events before the actual wedding, and she wanted to introduce her new daughter to the world, as she put it.
Raihana and Delsanra both woke up with massive hangovers and were in bed past noon. I had gone to training. The pack were happy to see me back, and although many wanted to see my mate, I told them that once we were back from the wedding, they would get to meet her. I didn’t want to overwhelm her.
I managed to get Chris alone, but as Lola said, it was better to wait. We needed to discuss the issue with both him and Raihana present. I took the time to summon Lola instead and lay down all the plans along with the information that I had found. It gave them both something to do whilst I was gone. We would be back in a few days anyway.
There was a knock on my office door, and I looked up.
