Finally Found

Chapter 7

A week had passed since the judge sentenced Phoebe's father to jail for a year. The court also granted the restriction order. That was the last time Phoebe saw her father.

Today was the first time Phoebe was left alone. After her last meltdown, Cassandra and Victoria made sure one of them is with Phoebe at all times. It took some effort but Phoebe managed to convince them to go.

Phoebe looked at the clock, her alphas should come back from work soon. She put the lasagna she made in the oven. Just in time, she thought. She set the timer and went to the living room, sitting on the sofa.

She just sat there gazing around the room before her eyes landed on the piano in the corner. She missed playing the instrument. Hoping the alphas wouldn't mind, she walked to the piano and sat in front of it.

She laid her hands on it, feeling the keys under her fingers. And then she played.

When Victoria entered the apartment, the sound of the piano greeted her. She recognized the piece, in fact it was one of her favorites, Liszt's Liebestraum. She moved further into the apartment, as quiet as possible. The sight of her omega playing the piano with such grace and precision captivated her.

Once the song finished, she slowly clapped, startling Phoebe.

"I hope you don't mind! It's just, I don't know what to do while waiting for the lasagna to finish. I know I should've asked-" she rambled.

"It's okay!" Victoria dismissed with a wave of her hand. "It was beautiful. I didn't know you played that well."

Phoebe blushed at the compliment. Victoria went over to Phoebe and put a hand on her shoulder.

"And you don't need to ask for permission, you can play it anytime you want to. In fact, consider the piano yours. Everything mine is yours Phoebe."

And then the oven beeped, signaling that the lasagna was done. Phoebe stood up and gave Victoria's cheek a quick peck before quickly leaving to get the lasagna out, leaving a wide grin on the usually stoic alpha's face.

The three women sat on the table enjoying their dinner. Cassandra had returned home not long after Phoebe finished setting up the table. Phoebe was happy seeing that both the alphas liked her cooking. Especially Cassandra since she's on her third portion.

"You should play for us after dinner" Victoria broke the silence.

"Play what?" Cassandra looked up from her plate, sauce on her cheek.

"Turns out our Phoebe is good with the piano. I came home to her playing" Victoria wiped the other alpha's cheek.

"Oh really? How long have you been playing?" Cassandra asked Phoebe.

"I started when I was five." She answered.

"Really?"

"Yeah, I actually majored in piano before... you know" The omega shrugged.

The room went quiet after that.

"I'll be glad to play some more after this" Phoebe broke the silence.

The two alphas shared a look.

"We'd love that"
