Destined mates

Charlotte was playing outside with her little sister Lucy when they heard the front door. "DADDY!" They both shouted. They came running through and jumped into Walter's arms. He was a tall man dress in a smart suit. He had brown hair cut short and brown eyes. Charlotte noticed her father didnt come home alone. "Uncle Peter!" she squealed, jumped out of her fathers arms and straight in Peter's. She noticed another figure behind them. When the boy came more into view, her eyes and mouth opened wide. She hid her face into Peter's shoulder. Peter turned at this point, "Come on Chris, come say hello to everyone." Chris was tall for his age, he had dark hair like his dad Peter but greens eyes like his luna mother, Rachel. His hair was cut short but with enough of top to style. He was dressed in jeans, t-shirt with a loose short sleeved shirt over top and white trainers. Charlotte and Lucy started to giggle while looking at each other, both Peter and Walter looked at each other, the girls and then to Chris and laughed themselves. "What's got you giggling?" Peter asked Charlotte with a tickle to her side. She whispered, "who's that?" "That's my son, Chris." Peter Whispered back to her. Chris turned as he heard his named mentioned which caused Charlotte to hide her face again. Peter and Walter laughed again to Chris' confused face. "Come on girls, leave Uncle Peter and Chris to get settled." Called Audrey as she came through from the kitchen. Walter and Peter put the girls back down and they ran off screaming and giggling to the garden of the pack house. "What just happened?" Chris questioned the men looking at him. "Seems to me that some little girls think they've just met their prince charming." answered Walter. Walter went over and kissed Audrey on the cheek. Audrey was a short lady with dark blonde hair and blue eyes. With the weather being warm, she had a short sleeved summer dress on that stopped at the knees. "Dad?" "Yes?" "You know how I get so annoyed at the kids who scream around the pack house at home?" began Chris. "Yes." "The girls didnt, especially Charlotte." explained Chris. Peter put his hand on his sons shoulder for reassurance. "Dad, I feel drawn to Charlotte, I cant explain it but is it weird, being werewolves and all, to have a strange connection to a kid half your age?" "No son and I'm glad you said that as me and Walter have been talking about that ourselves." he revealed to a confused Chris. Audrey went back into the kitchen to finish setting the table while Walter approached Peter and Chris. "Walter, as we hoped Chris feels a connection with Charlotte." "Ah, maybe hopefully she will be his mate when they come of age." "Uncle Walter, I'm 12 and Charlotte's, what? 5! How could I possibly feel connected to her in that way already?" "Chris, you are an alphas son from a strong bloodline, Chalotte is the daughter of not just one but two alphas from strong bloodlines. We hoped that when you are both of age that you become mates and bring our packs together in the future as alpha and luna." Walter explained to him. Chris just stood there while Peter and Walter walked off laughing heading to the living room. Chris watched the girls as they played. Charlotte had brown shoulder length hair , and the brightest blue eyes anyone had ever seen. They were blue as the sky on a clear summers day. She had a pretty yellow summer dress on and sandles. Lucy had mousey brown short hair just about reaching below her chin, not quite blonde but not dark enough to be brown. She was also dressed in a yellow summer dress and sandles. As the evening went on the girls dragged Chris to play with them in the garden. Lucy got tired and ran in the the living room and curled up on Walter's lap while he sat with Peter chatting about their neighbours at Hilltop. Charlotte would get Chris to push her on the swings and even swing her around in his arms. She screamed and giggled with excitement which brought a smile to Chris's face. When it was time for Charlotte to get cleaned up for bed, she quickly kissed Chris on the cheek and ran off inside to say goodnight to everyone else. Chris was shocked but couldnt help but smile. She said goodnight to her father with a kiss to the cheek then went over to her Uncle peter, who thought would also get a kiss to the cheek but instead, "Can I keep Chris?" she whispered into Peter's ear. Peter let out a laugh, "I think your aunt Rachel may want him back." Peter replied. Chris was walking into the room as he said that. Charlotte looked at Chris, giggled and ran into Audrey who took her to bed. Peter and Chris werent staying long as Walter and Peter just had some designs to look over that Walter had created for the renovation of the cinema in Bradwell. They were heading home the next day. It was summer so Chris was on his summer holidays and Peter new he would rather be home with his mates. The next day Audrey, Walter, Peter, Chris and the girls finished their breakfast and made their way outside for some fresh air. Even though it was summer, their packhouse was situated my a lake in the middle of the woods with a few houses plotted around the territory. Some of the trees were close so shaded the garden nicely in areas so it didnt feel too hot. Charlotte took Chris by the hand and led him towards the swing set. The adults and Lucy, who didnt want to play in the sun, sat in the seating area on the patio under a huge, beautiful oak tree. As time pasted, Peter announced they should be heading off. Walter wanted to get a group photo before they did as he knows it would be ages before they get to do it again. He collected his camera from the house, set it on its tripod and set the timer. Charlotte wanted Chris to hold her in the picture, which he was happy to do. Just before Walter was finished with the timer, Charlotte looked at Chris and said "Can I keep you?" With a smile, Chris looked at Charlotte and replied, "how about you can keep me when your big and strong." Charlotte looked at Chris with excitement, "Promise?" "I promise".
