My Little Sunshine

Fourteen

Rose POV

When Isaiah left the room, Elodie sighed and shook her head. "He knows that's not what I meant."

"Sweetheart you know how Isaiah is." Her dad said. "He isn't wired like us, when it comes to some things he likes he can't help but grow attached."

Attached? Is that what's going on? Isaiah is likes me so he's attached to me? What does that even mean?

"Dad I told you what he does. It still isn't right." Elodie told him.

"I know. And unless something is said about it I can't do anymore. Marco can only do so much unless it's brought to his attention." Her dad stated.

Are they talking about me? How Isaiah scents me all the time? I'm stood right here and they're talking in code. Attachments, liking something, not wired like us. There's more to Isaiah than I know and I don't think anyone is going to tell me more. Not unless I ask.

"She won't because she's scared, dad. He scares the living shit out of her. You should see her at school."

"Elodie it's okay." I tell her.

"No, Rose, it's not. You're not even his mate and he scents you like you are. It's not right and something needs to be done about it." Elodie argues.

"Elodie what are you saying?" Her mum frowned.

"Maybe it wouldn't be so bad if Isaiah got banished." She whispered. "I'm sick and tired of being second to him, because Isaiah has needs, because Isaiah isn't wired like us. Even when we were little Isaiah had it all. He had all your attention and I think if Rose said something to Marco then he could have Isaiah banished. Would it be that bad if he was gone for good?"

"How could you even think that?" Her mum stood up, tears filling her eyes. "How could you be so self centred to so much as think that? Elodie you never went without, you never had less time with your father an I. None of you kids had more attention than the other I made sure of that. Your dad made sure you both spent quality time with him and so did I. We spent so much time as a family. How can you stand there and say that Isaiah had more attention than you did?"

"He did. Every time he threw a tantrum it was always about him. Now you're defending him for something that is wrong."

"If there was a problem Rose would have said something by now." Her mum shouted. She took a frustrated breath as she cried. "Rose, if you have a problem with Isaiah please tell me now so I can take you directly to the alpha and we can get this sorted."

My eyes widened seeing her like this. Is she seriously saying that? Would she really go to the alpha and have her own son banished? She must be really out of her mind. And Elodie, I don't know how she hasn't seen how worried I've been about her brother. The amount of times we've been here over the last week just so I could selfishly see if he was here. Then last night he came to me and I knew he was okay.

The amount of relief I felt was unreal. But the desire I felt was so much more. The first boy, no, Isaiah isn't a boy he's a man, the first man I've ever seen naked and when he grew hard. My mind and heart were at war when I saw him like that. And when we laid down with my leg over his side. If I were naked he could've easily slid inside me and we could've mated.

My heart yelled at me to kiss up his body and let him do whatever he liked to me. For him to fuck me like I was the only girl he had eyes for. Like he'd never stared at another girl with lust before, I was the only one. But my head yelled at me that I should wait for my mate because Isaiah isn't him. That I should have all my firsts with my forever person. We have eternity after all.

Slowly I shake my head. "That isn't necessary at all." I tell her. "Isaiah isn't a problem."

"Don't lie, Rose. Please let us help you." Elodie said.

"I'm not lying, Elodie. Isaiah isn't a problem at all. If anything we need more people like him." I reply. What the fuck? Why did I just say that? How am I going to explain that one?

"If there's no problem then it's settled. Rose, if you ever feel how Elodie claims you do then don't be afraid to come to Judith or me and we can sort him out. Worse comes to worse we can take you to the Alpha and get this sorted personally."

I nod but stay silent. I appreciate their generosity but I really don't need it. At first I admit he did frighten me a bit. He'd come at me at the most random times, when I least expected it. His pheromones intimidated me, his muscular build and his dark eyes intimidated me. But that day in the woods, when he wouldn't let me go, when he said he wasn't done with me, I couldn't help but feel something. A wanting.

It felt nice to be held, to be wanted. Isaiah wants me and I think I like that. Not to mention he's so warm, his arms give me more comfort than I could ever explain. And his scent, he's heavenly. Now that I've seen a side to Isaiah I don't think anyone has seen excites me. Our little rendezvous has my heart pounding in my chest every time he sneaks through my window. And once again, the way he holds me. Nothing could even come close to the way he holds me because there's so much care to it yet so much possessiveness and I love it.

Okay so he doesn't have the best record in the pack. He's hurt people, I thought he'd do the same to me but he hasn't. The hands the have inflicted so much pain hold me so gently. The hands that have harmed people until they were unrecognisable touch me ever so lovingly. There's nothing in this world that I could ask for. And if there was it would be to forever be in Isaiah's arms, in a bed where he can love me and hold me with so much gentleness.

"Elodie your mother was a wreck with just a week of him being gone. You saw how she was and the relief I felt from my mate was the best feeling I've ever felt because she got her baby boy back. I never want to see that again, I never want to feel that again. Do you want that for your mum?"

"No." Elodie whispered. "I just want to be normal. The stares I get, the nasty words people say about me just because I'm related to him. I hate it."

"That doesn't call for your brother to be exiled, Elodie. Unless there was something serious that I disagree with then you don't do anything. That's not fair on him, not one bit. You saw him all of five minutes and you already want him gone again." Her mum sighed. "I'm sorry you feel like this but if you knew why Isaiah did what he did to them boys you would think very different of him."

"What did they do?" She frowned.

"That's not for me to tell." Her mum said and walked away.

"All you need to know is that your brother had very good reason to do what he did which would've got him exiled if he didn't have that reason. Be patient with him." Her dad told her. She nodded and like her mum, her dad left the room as well.

"Elodie you don't need to have your brother exiled, not on my account. Focus on what's important, your family. You know it's wrong to want that, you love him I can see that and I know you love that he's apart of your family. People are just quick to judge and because they fear Isaiah they pick on you because they think they can. You don't want Isaiah exiled at all, you just want the judgemental people to fuck off." I said.

"Yeah. They just need to fuck off." She gave a teary laugh. I smiled and hugged her, Yasmine joining as well.

"This pack is just full of judgmental people who need a life. Take Sasha for example." Yasmine laughed.

"Exactly. We have your back and we know you have ours. But don't take it out on Isaiah. That's not fair on him, on you and certainly not on your parents. They love you both equally and I would've loved a sibling, your so lucky to have a brother." I smiled at her.

"Yeah." Elodie nodded. "I guess I'm lucky to have him."
