"Nonsense." He waves me off. "You and Kyle are welcome here anytime." I thank him, and we all walk to the kitchen. We don't even get to say anything before Jade and Sky burst into the room.
"What happened? Oh, hey Cade. Again..." Skylar looks at me confused, but I just nod, telling her he's fine. I'm glad I pulled out soon enough, or things could have been pretty bad for Matt. I mean, he'd be a new wolf, so a bit more aggressive, and he'd have to lie to his family. For a bit at least.
"My dad stopped by and wasn't too happy with me. It's fine though." I shrug, and Matt looks at me, as if he was trying to figure me out. He shakes his head and looks at me disapprovingly.
"Oh. Okay." She shrugs tiredly. Matt laughs.
"What were you doing all night?" He asks and she blushes.
"Shut up. Nothing." She denies. I see Lawrence give them a look, and they both go quiet. For now. I can see the look in his eyes and it makes me laughs.
I sling an arm over my mate's shoulder while I say, "Ahhh, siblingly love, aye?" He laughs at me but doesn't push me off. I'm guessing it's partly because you can still see the bite marks from yesterday. Faintly, but they are still there. They probably will be for about two days. Mister Frey asks Matt to grab plates for the breakfast he is making, and so, much to my dismay, he shimmies out of my grip and grabs plates. He turns towards me, and I instinctively look at his neck.
Holy shit.
His bite marks are gone.
Yeah, my speed healing should have transferred to him, but only for a few hours. It's been more than a few hours. "Cade? Are you going to eat or just stand there?" Matt laughs, patting the seat next to him at the table everyone is sitting at, staring at me. I nod and sit down, ignoring my thoughts.
It's nice to feel like a have a family again.
Chapter thirty~Matt~
Having Cade laughing and getting along with my family was nice. It was also a plus to know they liked him. "No! A hot dog is not a sandwich." I protest.
"But it is! It's just like half a sandwich, when you fold it in half." Cade counters.
"Sorry Matto, but I'm with Cade on this one." Sky says, walking to the side of the island Cade is standing on. We some how ended up in the position, across from each other, in the middle of one of the many debates we've had this mor- well afternoon now. It's close to two o'clock in the afternoon.
"Me too." Jade shrugs, going over with him.
"Dad!" I whine like a toddler.
"Fine. Fine. I'm with you, it's just not a sandwich."
"Hmm... well that's too bad. It's three to two Matthew. Looks like I won." Cade taunts me. I stick my tounge out and mock him, making everyone laugh.
"Okay, you can't disagree with me on this one..." I start, and then realize that I still haven't thought of a topic. "Alright, I got it." They look at me expectantly. "Pineapple belongs on pizza." I say dramatically.
"Alright alright, you got me there." Cade comes over to my side, as my dad joins the girls on the other.
"Ew no." They all drag out at the same time. We laugh, and Sky opens her mouth to say something, but the doorbell suddenly rings, scaring me so bad I scream. They all laugh at me, so I stick my tounge out and walk down the stairs to the front door. I swing it open and I kid you not, slam it shut when I see who's on the other side. I walk back up the stairs, and my dad looks at me confused. Well, everyone does, but my dad is the first to speak. "Who was it..?"
"Ding dong ditcher." I laugh. My father and Jade believe me, but Skylar and Cade don't seem that convinced. I'm guessing Cade can probably smell the person. I shake my head, and Sky finally says her topic.
"Okay, so. Winter is better than summer."
"Are you crazy? It's freezing out there right now." I scoff. Cade shrugs and walks to the side with all my family on it. "What?" I act hurt, grabbing at my heart, causing them to laugh. There is an impatient knock at the door and I sigh. "I'll get it." I start to walk to the stairs, when I feel Cade by my side.
"I'll go with." He states, making me freeze and turn to him.
"N-no. You don't have to. It's just a ding dong ditcher again..." I laugh nervously.
"You know, you're right. I'll go alone." He starts walking past me so I put my hand over his chest to stop him.
"Fine. Just don't say anything." I tell him and he nods hesitantly. I get to the door and open it a crack. "What?" I ask flatly.
"Please Matt." My ex-step brother begs.
I glance at Cade for a moment, and then look back at Wayne. With a sigh and nod, I walk out into the cold. It's not actually too bad out right now, despite the white snow grounds. "What?"
"I'm so... so sorry. I swear it wasn't my choice. It was mom's." He exclaims.
"Don't call her mom, like she's my mom too." I growl, suddenly very angry. "You have no idea what you did to me. You made my life hell and I'm sure as hell not going to forgive you for it. Leave." I step closer to the railing next to the concrete stairs.
"Matt I'm so sorry. She made me! She knew how I felt about you..." He says the last part quietly.
"How you felt?? What the hell Wayne??" I practically shout. He looks at me and the next thing I know, he's in front of me, pressing his lips to mine. I push him away, with more force than I meant to, making him stumble back. I feel the railing hit my back, but I don't stop. I feel myself begin to flip, and Cade bursts through the door and Wayne yells. I see Cade reach for me, but even with my extended arm, it was just too late. I see him begin to run down the stairs, and then I feel excruciating pain when my skull connects with the driveway. I hear a scream, more than just my own, and look up to see a faint outline of both my sisters and my dad, all leaning to see me.
"Matt. Matt! Are you okay? Talk to me beautiful. Come on." Cade falls to his knees beside me, and I can see tears pool in his eyes as the pain begins to subside and I get my vision back.
"I'm fine, Pup." I smile. He gives me a slight smile and puts his hand on my cheek while he lifts me onto his lap.
"We have to get you to the hospital." He tells me.
"No. Not again. I hate that place." I protest, giving him my best puppy dog eyes.
He chuckles. "Matt, you just fell seven feet on your head." I sit up.
"No Cade. I told you I'm fine." I touch the back of my head. "See, perfectly fine." I show him.
He looks behind me. "But Matt... There's blood right where you landed."
"So? I just still have your speed healing." I make him look me in the eye. "I'm good Cade." I peck his lips, and blush instantly. It deepens when I remember that my family is there. Cade follows my gaze, and he zeros in on Wayne.
"This is your fault." He growls.
"What?" My dad turns to look at him sharply.
"I- I'm sorry. It was an accident I swear!" He begins backing up, down the stairs.
"I don't want to see you, or Tiffany on my property again." Wayne nods and his command, and rushes away. My dad and sisters rush over to us. "Are you okay?" He asks worriedly.
"Yeah dad. I'm good." I smile.
And for the first time since my mother's death, I truly mean it.
Chapter thirty-one~Matt~
"So, when were you two going to tell us?" Jade asks when we're back inside. Sky smirks at us, apparently knowing, but my dad nods.
"I don't know. Whenever." I shrug, embarrased. I'm glad my family didn't see what really happened, or they wouldn't have believed me when I said I was fine. They laugh and Cade turns to my father.
"Would you mind if I took Matt for a while? Just to talk to Kyle." He asks, politely.
"Sure, I think that would be just fine. My only condition is that he's home my ten. You guys have school tomorrow." I nod and give them all a hug, and then go to leave. "Woah, Matt. You gonna put a jacket on? You'll freeze." I nod again, and go throw on a thick hoodie.
"This should be fine, it's been okay out today." I tell him.
"Matt it's only 30° out. That's really cold for you." I just shrug and walk out the door.
"You coming?" I laugh. He shakes his head and rolls his eyes and he runs after me, but I don't miss the smile that graces his lips. About twenty something minutes later, we arrive at what I found out was the pack houses. Werewolf family's could live in smaller houses throughout the land they owned, but the really large house I was apparently in before, was for the Alpha and his/her family, the Beta and his/her family, and finally the Delta and his/her family. The Alpha is obviously the highest rank, then Beta is like the right hand, and Delta (for Cade's pack anyways, he said it may vary depending on what pack/ country you are from) is like the head of the warriors. Warriors are exactly what they sound like. If there is
