*SHORT*

The quiet, timid nature of Charlie Swan had been challenged and overthrown when Aurora returned home with Paul at her side. The yelling that had been entirely one sided had filled the home and then some whilst Paul sat outside on the front porch awaiting his own lecture.

Aurora was grounded, and not curfew grounded. She was not allowed to leave the house for the rest of the summer. She was under lockdown.

Paul had been yelled at just the same. Charlie was beginning to understand that when his daughters came home with a boyfriend, it was a soul-binding fixation. He remedied that by setting rules and boundaries for Paul, the reason his youngest daughter "ran away from home". He could only visit her at the house and had to be gone by 8:00pm. He could not enter their home without being fully clothed. He was not allowed in her room.

Aurora didn't argue. She took his yelling and apologized again and again.

All in all, he was happy she was home.

************************************************

Their lips hadn't left each other once since her dad had left for work an hour ago. It didn't take much longer till the two had broken every one of the house arrest rules. Not only was Paul in her room at 8:17pm, but his shirt had been thrown somewhere to the floor.

Aurora sat up and threw her own shirt off eliciting a wide grin from Paul. He pushed her back down and pressed kisses into her chest just above her bra and grasped firmly to her waist. Aurora laughed and closed her eyes, wishing she had been this close to Paul everyday since he imprinted on her.

She blinked open her eyes and looked at him. All she could see was the top of his head as he kissed at her covered breasts. Aurora pulled up his head and had his eyes meet hers.

"I love you, Paul."

His fiery eyes lost their lustful glean and softened. He looked lovingly at her beautiful big brown eyes.

"I'll always love you, Aurora Rae Swan."

She smiled at him and pulled him back for a sweet kiss.

"HOLY HELL!!"

Paul and Aurora jumped up at the shriek of Charlie Swan walking upstairs to his bedroom and happening to glance over at his daughter and her boyfriend topless in bed together. He quickly averted his eyes and continued swearing as Paul sat up in front of Aurora to give her some dignity as she found a shirt to throw on. He did the same.

"Aurora! Get—put your! I don't even! What in the hell!"

"Daddy," Aurora put on her shirt and ran over to him to try and calm him down.

"No! NO! What the hell are you thinking?" He turned to Paul who also had his shirt back on inside out. Never before had Aurora seen the hotheaded shifter who fought off vampires with such a frightened look over being caught in bed with his girl by her dad. Charlie stomped over to him and took him by the shirt collar. "Get out of my house," he said sternly.

Taking the easy out, Paul rushed out of the room and down the stairs. "Love you!" He cried as he made it through the living room and out the front door.

Finally, Charlie turned back to her. He was absolutely furious and for good reason. Not only had every rule he set been broken, but his daughter was engaging herself in explicit situations that Charlie would have rather not been aware of. It was too late now, he knew what went on behind closed doors.

He crossed his arms in disapproval. "What do you have to say for yourself, young lady?"

Aurora thought of what she could say to make this situation somehow better. She couldn't think of any words that would make this go away. However, it did occur to her that had she chosen to go with Felix, she'd never be able to have these uncomfortable experiences with her dad. Never again would she see this scolding face he pulled catching her with a boy in her room. It made Aurora well up with joy to still be able to have him in her life.

She smiled and hugged Charlie, who was caught off guard by the misplaced endearment. "Love you, dad."

Charlie sighed and caved. He lowered his hands from the air and lightly held his daughter. "Love you too, kid," he grumbled.

Aurora let him go and smiled on last time before trotting downstairs for a late snack. Charlie stood in his place for a moment longer before remembering why he was upset.

"Hold it! You're not out of the woods yet, young lady!" He said as he followed her down the stairs to chastise her some more.

Aurora loved her dad.
