Avery's POV

I was sitting in the living room with a weighted blanket Around my shoulders when Alexia came walking in from the kitchen with a hot cup of tea in her hands she sat down next to me and handed it to me. "Here I made you some tea" she said I thanked her as I took a little sip of it, with one question lingering in my head "hey how did you know what to do earlier when    I was you know-"  "having a panic attack" She said "yeah that" I replied she sighed "I um started having the same when you left Isabella was the one who helped me the thought of you dying and never coming back home came to mind with everything I did bottle feeding Jenna, washing clothes, doing the dishes simple everyday things turn into a disaster every time it came to mind like I once almost feed Jenna a bottle full of coffee instead of milk then there was the time I shrunk her baby clothes so small that even she couldn't fit them I had to buy her a whole new wardrobe then there was when I broke a cabinet full of plates which wasn't fun to clean up by the way" she explained all in one breath.

Wow I didn't know that me being away affected her that much I broke my heart knowing that I put her through this.

"I'm so sorry I- I had no idea" I said

"It's ok the stupid mate bond had a part to play in it as well besides it was what we agreed on" she said trying to laugh it off. I looked at her

"No it's not ok, I did what I told myself I'd never do I got lost in my responsibilities as Alpha, my need to make everything better and the hopes and dreams of my dead father that I left you alone with a baby for 4 years, a baby that I promised we'd take care of together" I said she looked at me with watery eyes

"I'm sorry Alexia your the best damn mate anyone could ever ask for you didn't deserve that even if it was something we agreed on"  I said she smiled and kissed me we stayed like that for a while before pulling away and hugging. Suddenly there was a knock on the door on in which made us jump up on guard. We looked at each other then at the door before I slowly walked towards it placing my hand on the knob before quickly opening it with my claws out.

"Whoa there don't kill me" the man said sighed and retracted my claws "Dad!? Mom!? What are you two doing here" here I asked looking at my parents standing in front of me. "Wow no invite in first it cold out here" my dad said "Oh right sorry come in" I said moving to the side they both then walked in and I shoot and locked the door behind them before turning to look at the two. "Hello Mr and Mrs Jackson nice to see you two again" Alexia said holding out a hand for them to shake my dad just looked at it for a moment before pushing it away and pulling her in for a hug.

"We don't do hand shakes not when your the mother of my grandchildren" he said which made me smile even though my mom and dads hands were tide when it came to helping out with Jenny that still didn't stop them from texting and asking for pictures of her or videos even video calling  just to talk to her. They love her just as much as we do and it killed them knowing that they could never be around her and be the grandparents they've always wanted to be.

"Speaking that where are they" my mom questioned

"They?!" I asked

"Yeah our new grandson as well" said mom I looked at her shocked

"How did you know about Levi? No else know but my closest friends" I said

"Oh please Isabella calls and tells us everything" my mom replied I just shook my head.

"Well he's not officially ours just yet" I said

"Well what are you waiting for" my dad asked

"The right time he's only known us for like a week or so" I said
