The Luna Legacy - Genesis

CHAPTER 45 THE CAT IS OUT HE BAG

I woke up this morning and between my legs felt sore, my lady parts took a beating last night, and now I have a duck walk going on. When went to use the bathroom and got back to bed realize Noah isn't in the bed.

I put on his robe and walked to the gym thinking he might be there working out and got lost twice. This house was ridiculously large, with every amenity that one could possibly want in a home. Coffered ceilings, marble floors, four pillar stone columns and a grand foyer. An Olympic length swimming pool, a massive gym, the kitchen large enough to fit a catering team.

There is a spa that Noah says its Finnish styled and he got the design because it reminded him of something from his childhood. The private home theatre could fit at least fifty people and the walk-in closet was bigger than my living room.

The wine cellar, or should I say wine cave has a mobile mine cart that took you thought the underground wine storage. According to Noah UV rays from direct sunlight affects the wines flavors and aroma.

When I didn't find him, I went back to bed and that's when I saw his note, "hey beautiful, I will be back soon, don't get up please sleep until I get back. I love you. Noah".

I smile at the note, he can be so mushy sometimes, but it didn't take long before I fell back asleep while waiting for him to come home. My eyes flutter open and I see worried eyes staring at me while I slept, something is bothering him.

"Is everything ok?" I asked, he says yes but my gut tells me otherwise. He kisses me and I forget about the soreness between my thighs.

After the events of last night, I have made a conscious decision to start putting more trust in Noah and stop doubting him so much. Ever since we have met, he has done nothing but bend backward to make sure I was comfortable and happy about everything pertaining to our relationship.

My heart tells me it's time to move full throttle ahead and let go off my insecurities, and all the uncertainties lingering inside of me. Time to stop listening to all the voices in my head that prevent me from giving myself totally to Noah.

My mom always said when you find that one person who you are destined to be with, you will know it. But no matter what you should give only 95% of yourself and invest it fully into the relationship.

When I asked why 95%, why not 100%? she said "because that 5% is your anchor, it's your way back if anything should happen. That 5% will prevent you from being consumed. It will be your lifeline so you can rebuild"

It's time for me to give Noah that 95%, he deserves it, he's mine and I was going to embrace that!

"I think its full time we talk to the kids about our relationship" I say to him.

He looks at me smiling and says, "are you sure?"

"Well yeah, unless you think it's too soon?" I say teasingly.

He walks over to where I am standing in the bedroom, kiss me on the forehead then says, "I just want to make sure that you are certain, there is no turning back now Ms. Cambridge." Then he pulls me into his arms.

We shower got dressed, I'm wearing one of his oversized sweat bottoms and t shirt. We make plans to take the kids for breakfast, and Noah arranged to take us jet skiing on the river after. When we got to the house Abby and Danielle were already making breakfast while Tom watches cartoons.

"Good morning you guys" I say and ruffle Tom's hair.

"Morning mom" Tom says excitedly.

I walk over to Abby who is in the kitchen and hug her then took over making breakfast. She and Danielle started asking questions about the party last night. My response was that it was great, but I didn't have the pictures to prove it. Unbeknownst to me Noah took pictures of me, throughout the night and he was able to show the kids until his phone rang.

Danielle says, "thank you for the payment, it is more than I expected, it's a big help with her tuition but I gotta ask, are you sure you didn't make a mistake?"

"What are you talking about? I didn't pay you yet"

She looks at me stunned and says "oh, I received the funds in my account and a text that it is for babysitting".

"I don't even have your account number" I say as I turn to look at Noah. He is caught up on his phone and I just have a strong feeling something is bothering him and he's not telling me about it. I write it off as werewolf Alpha business and I don't bother him about it.

"Ok, well don't spend it all in one place" I say then smile at her and she smiles back big. Under different circumstances I wouldn't be happy with him doing that behind my back. However, he was the one that arranged for her to babysit the kids, so I guess its ok if he paid her.

We have breakfast then Danielle leaves but made me promise that I would call her whenever I needed a babysitter for the kids. She will be available any day, any time until she goes back to college. Noah has excused himself quite a few times to take calls. He usually just takes his calls around us, albeit its usually just me and the kids, maybe he doesn't want Danielle to hear but still he is acting a bit weird.

After breakfast we left for our trip to the river for jet skiing. Tom is riding with Noah while Abby and I have our own jet ski. Noah insisted that he be the one to take Tom because he didn't trust me or Abby to do so. He has become protective of Tom and it's fun to watch them interact with each other, it's the kind of relationship that I wished Tom had with his own father.

We all had so much fun, especially Tom, seeing them happy made me happy, this is the kind of childhood that I want for them. To be happy, carefree, laughing and just being kids, leaving all the big problems to the adults.

After lunch of garlic and butter seared lobster tails, steak and chicken cutlets for Tom we get in the car to head home. Noah is driving out the parking spot he turns to me and say, "I would let you drive but the kids are on board I don't want you driving into traffic". I punch his arm and we both laugh because I knew exactly what he was referring to.

"Did you enjoy today" Noah says to me while I lean on his shoulder as he drives.

"I love being on the river it's like I get a high when I'm in it, I can't explain it I just do".

"Well, you do live close to the river, the Riverhead is within walking distance from the house, its beautiful I'll take you one day"

"ok".

The next morning, I woke up early made breakfast. This is the morning that we tell the kids about our relationship. We woke the kids and told them we had something important to tell them. Abby started panicking I had to tell her it is something positive, so she got excited to hear what it was.

Noah held my hand as I spoke "Noah and I have decided to date each other, on a permanent basis. So, he will be here more often, and we will go to his house sometimes as well".

We sit and wait for their reactions, Tom was the first "ok, cool' while smiling.

Abby on the other hand was just sitting looking at us from across the table, no discernable facial expression. Then she says, "this is the important news?" while looking back and forth at both Noah and me.

Then she continues "Noah basically lives here, if he stayed here more he would work from home. You're not as discreet as you think. Congratulations I guess" then started eating her spinach and cheese omelet.

I look at Noah and he shrugs his shoulders and started eating his breakfast, he ruffles Tom's head and Tom laughs. Noah called his mom and told her I still wasn't well so we would have to put off coming to brunch until next Sunday. I told him he didn't have to but he said he just wanted to relax with me for the rest of the day.

He sat at the breakfast bar while sipping my low-priced wine watching me cook dinner. After dinner all four of us watched tv until it was time to go to bed. Tomorrow is a big day for the kids, they will get registered in their new school. I had called the school on Friday to make an appointment to get the kids registered in school
