Kai wasn't much of help either, he was standing far away in the back somewhere, listening to music with headphones on. "So... Taya's told me so much about you. How you decided to leave your family business and serve in the Navy—" I started to speak, but he began to yawn and he cut me off. "Yeah, and I've heard a lot about you too," "Good things, I hope," I laughed nervously. "My daughter and I are very close. We tell each other everything," "Yes, she mentioned that you two are close—" For the first time this entire ride, Blondie’s dad turned his face to me. With a stoic look on his face, he then said, "Playing games with each other. Falling for each other. And now dating one another. Sounds

Blake P.O.V. Allie and I talk in my office while she holds our daughter close, because that is what this child is; our daughter. I don’t know how, why or when but Tabatha somehow meddled with fate and created this little miracle from mine and Allie’s DNA. Of that none of us have any doubt. I had to call my parents as they were not on pack grounds, and after a little debate back and forth we decided to be forthcoming with not only our own ranked members but the Coven Mothers as well.

Nothing but the headache of my family and their drama. Suddenly, I don’t feel worthy enough to meet his parents. They are going to hate me. I should let it happen though. Let them hate me so Aiden will leave and find someone better than me. “Mom, Dad! Over here!” I heard Aiden call out. Two people turn around and I’m taken aback. Yes, these are definitely his parents. Aiden and Reid both look like a combination of their mom and dad. But Aiden gets his black hair from his mom and his blue eyes from his dad. Reid is the opposite. He has his mother’s green eyes and father’s brown hair.

"That's.." "That's the truth. And I enabled it. I brought my daughter into that monster's home. I chose financial security over her safety." Tears stream down Mom's face now. "I will regret that for the rest of my life. But I can make it right by telling the world exactly what Adrian Hayes is. A murderer. A manipulator. A man who sees human beings as commodities." "Aria and Lucian…your daughter and stepson…are currently participating in mate bond research at Genetech Industries. Do you support that decision?"

"So is Sophie still getting everything?" "Well..." Mom hesitated. "If she is, Sophie can pay your expenses. She's the one inheriting everything." I kept my voice even. "If she isn't, pay back the six thousand you promised for my down payment, plus the money you drained from me with those fake medical bills. Then we can talk." Mom's face turned red. "Elayne, don't push me! I'm your mother! The law says you have to support me!" "And the law says parents are supposed to support their kids," I shot back calmly. "Did you? My tuition came from scholarships. My living expenses came from part-time jobs. When exactly did you ever give me money?"

I’ll make them pay for this! Theodore let out a derisive laugh when he saw their flashy punk-style profile pictures. Then, with clear sarcasm, he read the two brazen messages aloud in front of my biological parents, Arnold and Eleanor Sedgewick. The fake daughter, Jenna Sedgewick, doubled over laughing. She wiped the tears at the corners of her eyes away, her voice dripping with disdain. “This is hilarious, Willa. You really think those two street-thug parents of yours can take on the Sedgewick family? You’re biting off more than you can chew.”

Having Kaden's and Declan’s parents move in with us feels right – the pups adore their grandparents, and after everything we've faced, keeping family close has become even more important. My own parents chose to stay in their home, a decision I understand completely. Brynlee needs the familiar comfort of those walls right now, needs the safety of the place she's known her whole life while she heals. The haunted look in my sister's eyes is slowly fading, but her recovery will take time. Time, and probably vengeance – though Rhett seems determined to handle that last part himself. "Mommy!" Kellan races in, his dark curls bouncing. "Grammy Kat says the kitchen's ready for cookies!"

Blake has the Strudel box in his hand and heads toward the toaster. I rotate the camera back to my face and sprinkle cheese onto my chips. "So I heard you haven't been outside in weeks." "Can you blame me? No one will tell me how Mom and Dad ended up getting photographed from the backyard, Tony. The backyard, in a gated neighborhood. I'm not going out there." I know exactly how they were photographed. Lennox shared the security information with me. I understand why my parents want to shield Blake from the truth, fearing it will worsen his anxiety.

Blair replied softly, locking her emerald eyes with her mother's, a striking trait she inherited from her father and Alexa's ex-husband, Jordan. A familiar ache gripped Alexa's heart as she looked into Blair's eyes, her thoughts drifting to Jordan momentarily. This feeling always arose whenever she gazed at her daughter, who was a striking likeness of him. Although both kids reminded her of her ex, Blair’s resemblance to Jordan was particularly remarkable. While Atlas displayed Alexa’s hazel eyes and hair color, Blair closely mirrored Jordan's physical attributes. However, in terms of personality, Atlas exhibited traits akin to Jordan, whereas Blair reflected Alexa's calm nature.

Remembering the photo in the frame, I picked it up. It's a photo of Blaire, me and her mom, Penelope. I remember this day. One of my teachers called my dad because Blaire and I were laughing and distracting the class and I was not ready to go home yet. So Blaire's mom took me with them to the park. Blaire and I were 14 in this picture and she still had her blonde hair that she inherited from her mom. But she and her dad share the same chocolate eyes. Penelope was hugging us both with a huge smile on her face and Alaric took the photo. That was a fun day until I had to come back home.
