Chapter 21: Never again

Des POV

“Awww, aren’t you guys so cute, the Alpha and his Mate sleeping on the couch next to his Beta and his Mate.” April cooed waking us up. I finally fell asleep around two and know she was waking me up at six. I pulled Justine closer to me and opened my eyes a little. “April, we didn’t go to bed till like two, can you go away.” “What were you doing until two in the morning?” April asked confused. “Arguing, now go away.” I demand closing my eyes again and snuggling with Justine.

I am not sure how much longer I got to sleep, but I woke up to the sound of sizzling bacon. Reluctantly I opened my eyes again. Jay was still with me and Alex and Jess where still on the couch with us. Who could possibly be cooking? Slowly I made my way off the couch to the kitchen. April was at the stove cooking breakfast. “Oh, so know you want to wake up.” “Yeah, sorry I was just tired.” I said sitting at the bar. “Really? I couldn’t tell. Why where you up so late anyways?” “I told Jay about some stuff and then we sort of started arguing.” “How do you sort of fight?” April pushed. “April please stop, I’m not in the mood.” “What’s the amazing smell?” Jay asked walking to the kitchen. “Oh not much, Des just made you breakfast.” April answered winking at me and handing me a plate of food to give her. “Yeah, love its right here.” I said putting the food next to me. “Des cooked and the house didn’t burn down?” Justine said looking spectacle. “Your one to talk, I’m positive last night you are the one that light the stove on fire.” I teased. She smiled at me and then her face fell. “I’m not really in the mood.” She said and walked away with the plate of food. “So it wasn’t sort of, you did get in a fight.” April concluded.

Rolling my eyes I left the kitchen and walked to my room where I knew Justine was. “Love, can you please tell me what’s going through your head?” I asked once I got into my room. “I don’t want you scared of me.” I continued walking to her. “I’m not scared of you. I’m scared of why you told me. You could have gone the rest of our lives without that coming out.” That gave me relief. That was easier to calm down then her fearing me. “I was afraid of it coming out and hurting us. I couldn’t let that happen.” I said and pulled her into a hug. She laid her head on my chest. “One more thing, April made breakfast, right?” I laughed lightly.”Yes, she made it.” “Good I was afraid of you poisoning me.” She said with a light smile. “I’m a better cook then you give me credit for.” “Prove it.” “I will. Tonight I’ll make you dinner, while you April and Jess going shopping for a dress tomorrow.” Her face fell a little. “I don’t want to go shopping.” She whined with a pout on her face. “I’m sorry love; it was orders from my mom.” She groaned even louder knowing she couldn’t defy those orders. “Fine what kind of dress?” “Causal, it’s just a cook out. I’m wearing dark jeans.” I said shrugging. “It’s a cook out for when it’s your birthday and you move to alpha, but formal when you find your mate. I don’t understand that.” “Meeting you was more special then my birthday and becoming Alpha combined.” I said hugging her and kissing her forehead.

“Awww, so the love birds made up.”April cooed from my door. Ughh, will she ever leave me alone. It seems like Justine had the same thought. “When do you go back to school?” April laughed, “Monday, that’s just enough time to get my full tormenting in for the lovely couple.” April had fake innocence written across her face. “Desy, I’m tired.” Justine complained. I picked her up from where she stood and lightly placed her on my bed. I kissed her lightly and turned to leave the room. “Desy, can you lay down with me?” Justine asked quietly from the bed. “Sure, love.” I spent half my morning with Justine sleeping.

“Where’s Des?” Alex yelled down the hall. “I’m in here!” I called from my room. I just finished changing and Justine was taking a shower. “Hey do you remember the murder, I told you about?” He asked walking into my room. “Yeah, did that go anywhere?” “Yeah, it was one of Remus’s guys.” I spun around. “Which one?” Alex took a big gulp of air knowing I wasn’t going to like the answer. “Terence.” Anger boiled through me. “He sent one of his best men to kill two little kids! Are you kidding me?! What was he thinking?!” I yelled in a half growl. Alex didn’t say anything he just stood there understanding my anger. I use to be one Remus’s best guy, when I was creating trouble with them. I would have never killed a kid! Even if he told me to! You have to draw a line somewhere. Worst part is I use to have the lowest morels then all of them, including Terence. Know he doesn’t have any morals.
