I and Trix went to Danny Meyer's restaurant to see the final preparations for our party. Ben and I love rooftop so I selected that portion. Black couches were placed and for decoration, Black and golden balloons were displayed with yellow fairy lights. we told them a few changes and went back home to get ready. Everyone is coming today Lucas, Bella, Jack, Liam, Seth, James, Nicolas, Leo. Peter and Lisa don't want to spoil kids fun so they are not joining us.
It was 6 pm Ben was back. I got ready in the royal blue frock which was covering till my knees. I tied my hairs into front braid leaving my hair open at back. I put on some gloss and eyeliner with a light blush on. I wore my favorite black shiny pumps. After getting ready I went to Ben's room.
"Ben?" I said opening his door. He was wearing black jeans with a white Tshirt and a black leather jacket. My little baby was looking so handsome. I wish mom was here to see him how handsome he has grown just like our father.
" Panda, You look so beautiful." He said whistling and hugging me.
" Thank you my baby. You are looking handsome I can't believe my baby boy would be so handsome and charming grown-up." I said kissing his cheek.
"Well we both are beautiful kids of our parents." He said looking in the mirror with a smirk.
" Ben I have something to give you," I said extending a box.
" What is this?" He asked taking a box from my hand.
"Well as you are grown up Mom and Dad mentioned in there letter that on your 18th birthday I should give you this," I said with tears in my eyes.
He opened the box and there was a checkbook, atm card, and some property papers with a letter. He opened the letter.
" Our baby boy,
We know we are not here with you. We are sorry for that but when we send you with your sister. We already shifted our all savings into your secret accounts. We gave your sister her belonging and now as you are 18 it's your time to have what is yours. Baby you and Rosalie don't have to go back there. You have already everything. All money only belongs to guys. We wanted to give you a life full of joy and love. Just remember we love you so much. You are our strength. Happy birthday Benjamin.
Love
your parents,"
Benjamin has tears in his eyes too. I hugged him and we both cried silently.
" I wish they were here instead of this." He said crying
"Shh.. They are here in our hearts." I said
"I miss them." He said.
"Okay come on enough of crying. Let's go birthday baby." I said wiping his tears.
Soon we heard the bell and I went to open with Ben all the minions were here with there racing cars. When they saw me they whistled and I rolled my eyes.
"I am going to get kill panda," James said.
"James be careful we are not doctors here," Liam said laughing.
"You are looking so beautiful," Seth said
"Today everyone will be looking at you," Jack said smiling.
"Okay thank you for these kind words. Let's go now. Let me call Bella and Trix" I said
"Trix and Bella, boys are here come down. we are leaving." I screamed.
Soon they came running and both of them were looking amazing. Seth's mouth was hanging open looking at Bella. I coughed to bring him back to our world and everyone laughed. Bella was blushing.
"Seth why don't you and Bella sit in your car," I said smiling.
"yeah...Yeah sure come on Bella," he said moving to his car.
"So Trix you can join us," I said
"No no I going to sit with these two minions of your's Liam and James. You know how much I love them to irritate." She said smiling evilly and both boys rolled there eyes and dragged her to the car. I was laughing hard. These three are always fighting I hope they get there safely.
I sat in Ben's car and I fastened my belt. all cars were in line and then they nodded to each other and zoom. We are in the air. After a few seconds I realized we were racing. Ben has an evil smirk on his face and he was looking so happy.
"Panda are you scared?" He asked me.
"Me? no no I am fine." I said grabbing the seat strongly.
"Then why are you holding so strongly to your seat." He asked laughing.
"Shut up. I am fine. I was just surprised." I said slapping his arm. He laughed loudly.
I might say his driving skills are more amazing them me. I was shocked by his sharp turns and constant speed.
Ethan PoV:
I was working when I smelled that Vanilla and roses scent but it was faded. After few minutes Nick came into my room telling me the girl who saved me is here. I told him I don't want to meet her but still, he sends her in. My room was filled with her scent my inner wolf was going crazy.
"Look at her. I want to see her." Grey my inner wolf said.
"Shutup I don't want a mate," I growled at him
"She is my mate and I want to get close." He said.
Then I heard her sweet soft voice. It was so hard not to look at her. Everything was inviting me to her but I know she is just like others. Who just want my attention for money just like my first love did. I don't want to repeat it. I knew she wouldn't have helped me if she didn't know I was that much rich. She was asking for my health I told her to leave but she started to show her care for me. I was really pissed on Nick and on my inner wolf. I couldn't take more. I stood up from my seat and hold her from her arms and started scolding her. When I finished I looked at her face. Her face was so beautiful with a fair skin tone. Her lips were like cherries so soft and pink. Her eyes were so big and beautifully golden brown color. Her eyes were filled with tears when she slapped me. I was shocked no one in this world has dared to slap me before. "Mr. Ethan Rand. I am not here for money or for your d**k. I just came to ask about your health but you are a selfish bastard. If you could properly see I am not wearing anything skin revealing. Moreover if there was anyone beside you in need of help. I would have done the same thing. You are not even worth for someone's care. Bye" she said and left. my wolf was scolding me cursing me badly. As she left Nick came inside holding boxes.
"What have you done to her? She was crying." He asked in anger.
"Shut up I told you not to send her but you did and I just told her she has no chance of getting into my pants," I said angrily and holding my coffee from him.
" Are you mad? What are you thinking? She only came here to ask your health. The coffee you are sinking she bought this and these cupcakes and cookies you love from her shop." He said in disappointed placing them on table
"These are by her?" I asked
" Yes you i***t. she didn't know you are Mr.Rand she was surprised when I went to the hospital. She is different. you shouldn't have done that. If she was not the one sending you hospital you would be dead" He told me
I felt bad listening to him. My inner wolf was cursing me. I really guided her wrong. So I run to say her sorry as my inner wolf was insisting me. I went to her shop but she was leaving by car. I followed her halfway but then I talked to myself why I am doing this. I don't need a mate and it's good if she hates me and I turned back to my office.
Next day:
Nick and I went to dinner with our client at Danny Meyer's restaurant. We stepped out of our car and as I walked two steps. I heard a loud racing car engine roaring voice along with tire screaming. We turned to look and 7 cars stopped in front. One of them was an electric green Ferrari. I shook my head and started walking saying "Kids these days". Then suddenly the same scent hit my senses. The vanilla and roses scent. It was strong filled in the air. My wolf was howling inside me. I turned and I saw her stepping out of that Ferrari. She was wearing a blue frock and she was looking so breathtaking. I was staring at her for minutes. I wanted to hold her in my arms and marked her right on the spot. Then I saw a handsome boy holding her from her waist. Anger started to boil inside me. How can he touch my mate? My wolf was forcing me to go and snap his neck but I somehow controlled my self. I turned around and went inside. our table was on the rooftop as always. I saw a birthday celebration decoration in the corner. today I am going to have a noisy dinner.
" So what are you ordering?" Nick asked
"Same as always," I replied.
"You are so boring." He said looking at the menu.
We heard lots of laughs and chattering and that scent again hit me. It couldn't be happening. I said to my self and here they are. All 7 boys and 3 girls one of them was Rosalie. I saw them going to there table and talking and playing. Dr.Lucas also came with them. They all sat on there table while we gave our order. she was looking so happy and beautiful. I saw those boys teasing her and touching her. She was enjoying it. I was boiling in anger. How could she do this? How can she allow them? Nick saw me looking at them and turned to see.
"So that's why you are angry. Rose is her." He said I didn't reply to him.
"I have to talk to her. I will be back" He said and left.
I saw him going there. Rose saw her and hug him. It looks like she loves to hug everyone. I used my hearing power to listen to what are they talking about.
" Rose I am really sorry for his behavior," Nick said
"Nick it's okay. I know rich people are like this." She said smiling. What does she means I am so bad?
" Still I am really feeling bad," Nick said
"Oh no no it's okay. Leave it. Do you want to join our party." She said happily
"No I can't. I have to join my friend." He said pointing at me. She looked at me and her expressions changed into pain.
"Great see you have destroyed our image" Grey my inner wolf said.
"Shut up we don't need her to like us," I said
" I need her. She is my mate." grey said
"No and shut up," I said blocking him
I saw that boy hugging her from the back and asking her to come with her to cut the cake. I punched the table hard. I really want to kill him. Soon Nick was back.
"Who is he?" I asked looking at him cutting the cake with her.
" Who?" Nick asked
"That boy," I said
" I don't know maybe his friend or boyfriend." He said
Our food was served and we started to eat. My eyes were in her. My ears focusing on them. They were calling her panda. I saw them rubbing the cake on that boy name Ben. Rose did the same and he holds her hands and rubbed his cake cheek with her and she was laughing hard and screaming. I saw all those boys rubbing cake on her cheek and she slapped them playfully. After playing I saw her going to the restroom. I told nick I will be back and followed her. When she came out. I hold her hand dragging her to corner.
"Stop leave me." She was saying trying to pull her wrist from my hand
"You slapped me yesterday telling me I was wrong and now. What are you doing?" I asked in anger
"Yes I slapped you because you were wrong. Leave me or---" I cut her in middle
"Or what you are going to call all those boys to beat me with whom you are w*****g around," I said in disgust.
SLAPPED " I knew you were arrogant and cold but I really didn't think you were a bastard. You don't even know who are they to me and you are calling me w***e on your assumptions." She said in anger with tears in her eyes.
"So I am wrong again. Huh I saw what were you doing with them. How you love to being touched by them. You like being touched let me touch you then " I said touching her everywhere.
"Stop it enough I am nothing to you and I am not answerable to you so get lost." She said pushing me and running back.
I saw her going back to her group and all boys looked at me but she didn't say anything. So they started talking with her lighting up her mood.
