1763 Words
Becca's POV. I could still smell his fragrance which still felt the same after so many years. The enchanting, woodsy smell that came out of him even when coated with dust or sweat is something I would spend my whole life inhaling. In truth, not so much changed about him… He spoke the same way, only with a more intense edge of masculinity attached to his voice. I couldn't help but wonder if he noticed how I have changed too. Having more time to myself over the years I have grown to be all of what I am now. whoever saw me wouldn't know that I already had a child, aged five. Only a few of my colleagues at the hospital knew I was already a mother and those were the ones I was particularly close with. Speaking of hospital I would have to resume work tomorrow and see my mom because I had already had her transferred to where I was so I would be able to keep a good and close check on her. After all, I wanted to solve this for the benefit of all but most especially hers. I was so glad we had it done. I finally got to see Shawn after a long time and I wouldn't say anything else changed about him, only his looks and that is because of his hair but apparently he was still the same, just older. Subconsciously, I started to reminisce over the period we shared. "Well that was all bygones" I said to myself trying to get the image of what happened years ago out of my head as his name kept on ringing in my head. I was so lost in myself that I forgot I had not gone to heed to the Alpha's call as I had many things running through my mind with no definite answer for it until she tapped me to bring me back to reality. "Ma'am, you still haven't answered the Alpha," she said, tapping my shoulder. "Oh I forgot, I'll go right away, thanks I had already lost myself in my dream world.. he must have been awaiting my arrival." I said standing up and walking out making my way to the palace but I stopped and turned back to her. "Thanks for everything" I said and she nodded with a smile on her face and then I left without turning back again. As soon as I got into the palace my spirit was awakened by the brightened smell of a delicious delicacy but I couldn't quite grab what it was. I followed the smell to the kitchen thinking that was where it was coming from but after checking everywhere I still couldn't trace the smell. I went over to the general dining area but there was still no trace of the food as it felt like I lost the smell. I sat down on the dining chair giving up on tracing the scent as my stomach rumbled because I haven't had my dinner yet and I was quite Hungry. With no hope of getting the scent again because the kitchen wasn't containing the particular aroma I wanted and there was no one at the dining so I didn't know where else such a scent could be coming from. I stood up and was about to climb the stairs to the North wing, where my room was but surprisingly I picked up the Scent again from the right wing and this time it led me upstairs surprisingly to Dax's personal section. The whole wing was for him and only him and he hardly allowed anyone to go into the right wing. Except those he called or perhaps close members. It was more like his own space. He had his personal living room, kitchen,room, dining and more… it literally had everything every other complete house does and more. The premises alone were enough to keep one's mouth ajar due to the large and extravagant qualifies and decors. I wanted to open the door but I hesitated thinking I wasn't invited to whatever he was doing there. But he called me over anyway. I was late and I knew I was obviously playing with fire because if perhaps I got him angry my life was probably at stake. I was so caught about meeting Shawn after everything and I really needed to make sure that he never found out about it, because if he did things weren't going to be funny because I had been warned beforehand about his temper whenever he saw shawn around but I didn't want to see his coldness at all because I know it wouldn't be good. Taking a deep breath I turned the door knob and I saw Alpha Day Along with Kade having a feast with delicious delicacies In front of them. Their attention was divided as soon as I entered as they both looked up to me with food filled in their mouth. "Wow such a feast you both are having." I walked over taking a seat beside Kade as he had really messed up his clothes. When I picked up the sarvet to clean the crumpe on his clothes. It was then I noticed he wasn't wearing the shirt I bought for him this morning. "What happened to your clothes?" I asked in confusion but Dad answered instead. "Oh I got him new clothes today. We were playing and then his clothes got dirty and I couldn't enter your room so I just took him on a shopping spree and got him a lot of clothes." He said with a plain smile on his face. "Shopping spree?? He's just five and since when did you have limitations in your house? You could have had his clothes dry cleaned or taken a new pair for him. You could have sent the maids rather than getting him what I don't really find necessary for him at the moment." I said with a slight frown ok my face but he didn't look bothered at all. "So? I don't think it is any problem if he has more than enough and I just wanted to take him out and have some time with him since I didn't know where you were all. day.. so I decided to do what I wanted to do. It wasn't anything much. I didn't get him up to 50 pairs of clothes, it was just about 47 pairs. So you can see your scolding and corrections are not really necessary." He said, taking a sip of Water from his glass cup as my head kept on ringing as I remembered the amount of clothes he just said he got for Kade. "45 pairs of clothes?? That is way unnecessary. Why would you get him 45 pairs of clothes in a day? He's just a child, all this is not necessary I must say." I said stop being confused on why he would get 45 pairs of clothing in a day for a five year old boy. That was overboard. Although he had the money to get him such but even I didn't bring him up to that amount if clothing because it was totally unnecessary for a child and I was sure that wasn't all he got for him. He would have definitely gotten him more stuffs. Kade didn't have time for my questions as he was really concentrating on what he was eating. "Why?? The last time I checked he still had enough clothes to last him for months. So why bother to get him new ones? It's definitely not necessary." I found myself blurting out. Although he was his father…yes I wasn't disputing that fact I just didn't see a good reason why he would go ahead to buy him other clothes. I don't want Kade growing up spoilt. I don't want him to have everything he needs because I don't want him thinking life is going to be that simple for him. "I don't want him thinking life is going to be that easy for him and aren’t you supposed to be the disciplinarian between the both of us?” I said and he just nodded, “Okay I’ll take notes and I’ll try to be a little more strict” he replied and I shook my head. Kade just looked at both of us like a lost puppy. I took a plate and served myself, I fed Kade and myself since I didn’t want him to stain the new shirt his dad bought him. Kade pushed my hand away gently, “I’ll feed myself, I will try not to stain my shirt” Kade said and I tried arguing with him then he did his sad puppy dog eyes and I couldn’t resist and let him feed himself. Alpha Dax on the other hand had finished, ‘as fast as a lighting bolt’ I said to myself. I took the first bite and it tasted excellent as expected though. Kade started struggling to feed himself and not stain his shirt. I was about to collect the spoon from him but Alpha Dax got it first, “I’ll feed him, you just focus on your food” he said and I did as he asked. I was done with my food and I was full, felt heavy as well. Through it all I still couldn't stop thinking about Shawn and wondering if he was back home safely and probably if we could meet again someday in a safer environment so we can be able to take about everything we really need to talk about to get our differences cleared because I still wanted him in my life but as a friend this time. At this point I was really confused but also I was very very happy because I finally got what I wanted ever since and it felt like such a relief to know that. It was the only thing that made my day. After all that had happened it felt like seeing home as actually all I needed all these while to be happy. I couldn't tell Dax about him now although I also didn't want to keep anything from him but this was much and I was just getting to know him better so I couldn't take that kind of risk yet. And I wanted him to be all settled with Kade because I wanted it to be settled with the both of them first so my actions would not Indirectly it directly ruin their relationship with each other.
