6- The deal

Marcus POV

I'm sitting in the family room waiting for nala and the rest of the pack. We need to talk with her. I'm really hoping she'll stay but we'll see.

Nala come in holding lucas hand and i can't help but smile she looks adorable, she still got that teddy in her hand. I smile at her and ask her to sit while we wait for the rest of the family to come in.

I start doing introduction " Nala I'm Marcus, u know logan and lucas they are twins , u met Tristan over breakfast so let me introduce you to the rest of the family"

Asher is the first to come in , at 6'6 and broad body made of full muscles he's kind of intimidating but he's also my fiercest warrior, his hair is buz cut,a beard and a prominent scar over his left eyebrow along with some smaller one all over his face and body and brown eyes.

Nala look at him and move a bit closer to lucas , i feel the hurt of ash although he's trying to hide it and give the girl a tight smile.

"Nala this is asher" she give him a timid smile hardly looking at him at all. Fuckk , i don't wanna lose her but i can't let ash get hurt again.

Ryan walk in next , being 6'1 with ash blond hair, blue eyes and an easy smile he walk straight to nala and offer her his hand while saying "Sheriff Ryan grey at your service mam" and tip an invisible hat.

Nala pales significantly. She think we called the police on her. Befote i can talk or say anything to put het at ease rayan continue saying " Are any of these guys annoying you cause i can kick their ass for you, i know where they sleep " he finish his sentence with a wink.

Nala finally relax and smile. Ow thank the fucking skies, for a moment i thought we lost her.

The last one to enter the room is kellan being 5'8 he's the shortest between us and the less intimidating looking, his black hair still bed kissed , black eyes red rimmed showing how tired he is , being a surgeon he's used to long nights but he wouldn't miss baby first day.

I break the silence saying "this is kellan, and now that the family is here let's talk"

Nala pales again but she look at me waiting to hear what i have to say.

Nala POV

I can feel my heart beating so fast I don't know what's he's gonna say or if I'm ready to hear I'm just nervous.

"Nala where do you live?" marcus question was enough for me to break and start crying. Where did i live on the street? In the park she's homeless.

She felt someone hugging her saying sweet nonsense in her ear and she finally calm down , it's logan the one who had his hands around her.

Still holding me logan quietly whisper in my ear "it's okay baby nothing to be ashamed of , we got you now "

"Nala it's okay baby , can you tell us how old you are?" it was rayan this time who talked

"I'm 17" i say between hiccups

" you got any family angel?" the deep voice made me look up suddenly it was asher.

Is he asking to see if he can kill me and hide the body without anyone looking for me.

Not trusting my voice i just shake my head and he looks sad and on the verge of tears.

"Nala we got an offer for you" marcus authoritative voice make me freeze

I can't look him in the eyes, I'm looking at my own hands in my lap "eyes up here nala i need you to listen carefully to me"

With some great difficulties i look up and our eyes locks.

"We want you to stay nala , we are offering you room of your own, food , clothes , an allowance , security and safety. NO ONE and i mean NO ONE will touch you or hurt you while you're under my roof and protection. But there will be some rules you'll have to follow and consequences if you misbehave"

Ahh , here's the catch. No one give such an offer without a cath.

"And what do you get in return" i ask still looking at his eyes.

"WE get someone to look after, someone who need our help and we are more then happy to offer"

"And the rules??" i contraindicate.

"Well if you accept our offer we'll sit down and talk about the rules in details but here's some of the major rules. One you obey all seven of us, we only want what's best for you and don't need you to fight us on every point. Two you'll be respectful to us all the time. And finally and the deal breaker is you call us Daddy"

Daddy , it just ring in my ears , i heard this word last night again i wasn't imagining. But can i do what these guys are asking me to? What are my other options.

"You can refuse if you want, we'll drive you back town and we'll never talk about it again. It's your choice little girl".

I don't know what to do , the thought of going back to the street tonight where it's dark. But I feel safe here.

In one rush of a moment i make my mind.

I look at marcus and say "Yes".

"Yes what baby girl?" marcus says with a raised brow.

He's gonna make me say it. Ughhhhh

"Yes daddy"
