Secrets

Chapter 8: Aunt Mariah Surprise

Camilla p.o.v

        His lips. My lips. They fell together in perfect sync. Once he let my tail go I lifted myself up. Tears began to form at my eyes making his wolf tense up. His eyes shifted from light to dark as Damon came back in control. 

        "Camilla" he whispered as I began to cry. He sat up with me in his lap. He brought my head to his shoulder as I cried. I couldn't stop myself from crying no matter what I did. All of this was to much. The feelings crashing and changing has my head in a swirl of pain. The sudden anger that was in me switch to lust to fast and I wanted to hurl whatever was in my stomach. I don't remember if I had anything in there at all to hurl. 

        "I'm sorry it wasn't me" he whispered. I know it wasn't him that did that, but the face was his. 

        "It's best to forgive his wolf, but set rules" my inner cat said. I can feel the disappointment wavering in her voice. Was she disappointed because I stop him for going any father, or was she disappointed because she put me in a situation I didn't like?

        I quickly sat up whipping the tears away. It wasn't like me to cry and it wasn't like me to lean on someone. Taking a deep breath in I began to slowly back away so I was in a good position. 

        "Look I don't blame you Damon, but I blame your wolf for everything. I know I'm asking to much from you to hold back but you must. Next time you put me in a situation like that I will never forgive you" I growled the last part out. 

        "Understood. Also Camilia I know your main setback is the whole cousin thing, so I want you to try to not see me as a cousin. To start this off why don't I take my mom, your mom, Ashley, and you to the town local water park. A few of the other pack members may join us though" he said. 

        "That's okay" I said.

        "Good you two made up, now I want you to come outside" I heard Aunt Mariah say. 

        When did she even get here? 

        "What is it?" Damon asked her. She only smirked before walking out giving us a look to follow. I followed her and heard Damon move in behind me to follow as well. From the scent of whatever it was came to me as a wolf. It smelt familiar. 

        "What did you do mom" was all I could hear Damon mutter. He seem to put his emotionless mask back on. As we stepped outside we were met with a crowd. 

        "What's going on" Damon asked using Alpha tone. Everyone turned towards him as he walked fore ward. The group split up allowing us to see what this 'surprise' was. Standing the middle of the group was my mom hugging a small wolf. The wolf looked at me and all I could do was freeze. All I could see was Ashley eyes starring at me as mom gave her a proud smile. 

        "Turns out Ashley is what you call a late bloomer" Aunt Mariah said kneeling down to where she was face to face with the pup. I wanted Ashley to be normal, but I guess she can't be. 

        "Both my baby girls have shifted" I heard mom whisper. Only problem is one of your girls isn't a werewolf. 

        Ashley coat was a pretty mix between white and a darker shade of silver. She walked towards me flashing off those pretty blue eyes. Sitting on her hunches she raised a small paw and laid it on my leg. She was connected to the others, and she was trying to send me messages. 

        "She wants to know what you think" Aunt Mariah said walking closer to us. 

        "I don't know what to say Ash. It cool you can change into a wolf, and you are a very cute one" I told her. She gave me a bark of approval, or what I believed to be a bark of approval. 

        "She says she smells something different about you. I guess you should tell her the truth later" Aunt Mariah said in a whisper to me. I only nodded as I watch Ashley try her legs out. Damon had a few of the kids shift to go help Ashley out in learning her wolf body. 

        Mom simply walked up to me and leaned against my body. "You know even though your not the same species you are like us. Give it time and you will see how much alike we are, and give it some time and you'll be able to open your heart to Damon and see past the false past" she told me. \

        "You know Ashley will only be in more danger because she shifted. Now she is truly apart of this world" was all I muttered before walking away from her. 

        "Camilia" was all I heard as I pushed past these other mutts to go back inside. 

        "Your little sibling will be fine Camilia" my inner cat spoke softly. I swore I could feel purring within her words. 

        "I hope you're right. New beings have moved into this territory and the rogues will be stirred up"  was all I told her before pushing her out. 

        I was mentally tired. All the truth, all the stress, and all this new current events were pushing on me. I needed to sleep and think about what I was going to do. Should I accept Damon and hope to live a semi normal life, or will I just make him wait to the point something happens to one of us and then the bond makes things hectic? I know I can't make him wait long due to the alpha blood running through both of us. 

        "Didn't you have a crush on Damon as a little girl?" my inner cat said breaking through my wall. 

        "I was a little girl. He was always around me, protecting me from bullies, any little girl would end up in that situation" I told her. 

        "Why don't you sit and see instead of acting off logical reason. You liked him once, you can like him again"
