Unwinding Fate

Chapter 23: Lucas

Isabelle groaned as she went through her closet. What was she supposed to wear? There wasn't anything good enough! She was just thankful because she was a werewolf, she lost most of her baby weight quickly because of high metabolism, otherwise, there would have been nothing that fit her!

"I've got nothing to wear!" she complained to Abby. "I have no idea what to wear in the first place anyways!"

"Why not wear that one blue dress with the brown belt we got at the mall when Luke and Jared first brought us here and took us shopping?" Abby suggested while she was on her phone, probably texting Luke. "I'm sure that will work. It seemed like a really good dress, especially for something like this."

Isabelle thought about it before she thumbed through the rack, looking for the dress that Abby was talking about. When she saw it, she grinned and turned to Abby, giving her a big bear hug. "Thanks Abby! You're the best."

Abby laughed and pushed her off, "thanks Iz. I know I am."She grinned, laughing at her own joke, and Isabelle laughed along beside her.

Once she calmed down, Isabelle walked back to the closet and grabbed the dress before making her way to the bathroom and firmly shutting the door quietly. She made sure to keep her ears open for Olivia in case she woke up. She was in her baby car seat sleeping at the end of the bed on the ground.

Jared had disappeared somewhere, probably getting everything ready. She didn't know. Quickly, Isabelle shimmied the dress on, glad that the dress was stretchable or else it would not have fit.

Once she was dressed, she stepped out of the bathroom and Abby looked up and her eyes widened. "It's perfect. Now, we just need to finish the rest of you."

With that, Abby put down her phone and attacked her with her makeup and hair.

Isabelle picked Olivia up when she started making a fuss and soothed her, rocking her back and forth. "Shh... baby, it's okay. Mommy's here."

It took a bit, but soon, Olivia was quiet and resting soundly in her mother's arms, just staring up at her.

Currently, they were in the living room, waiting for Jared so they could go and she could meet the pack and officially be introduced as Luna. Isabelle was as nervous as hell but she kept a brave face on to make it look like she was okay.

Suddenly, voices could be heard down the hall. The one that yelled out, she recognized as Abby.

"Lucas Alexander Olsen! That is a no, a hundred times no!" She saw them as they came down the hallway and stopped in the living room.

"And I say it's a yes! I'm not letting you do anything you don't have too!"

"I can do whatever I want! You don't control me. No one can."

"Oh, you know I can," Luke smirk before Abby scowled and slapped his arm. "Hey, what was that for!"

"For changing the subject, since I know you're trying to direct it away!"

Luke sighed and was about to reply when Isabelle interrupted them. "As amusing as this is, would anyone like to tell me what's going on?"

Abby turned her attention to her and scowled, "Luke won't let me pick anything up and honestly, it's become a nightmare."

Abby told him about her pregnancy last night when Luke took them out for dinner. She thought it was the perfect way to surprise him and he loved it, but now it looked like wasn't letting her do anything.

"Luke," Isabelle sighed, turning to face him with a pointed stare, "don't do this. It will out bad for you in the end, trust me. And Abby's going to do what she wants to do whether you like it or not."

Luke grumbled under his breath and Abby elbowed him, "would you stop that!"

"No, take it back and I will," Abby exclaimed, the rage still on her face but if you knew her well enough, you could see she was amused by the tiny smirk on her face.

"Fine, I take it back, I love you honey," Luke said and gave her a kiss.

Abby pulled away from him. "It's going to take a lot more than 'sorry' and 'I love you' to make it up to me," she grumbled and plopped down on the couch beside Iz.

It was silent for a moment until Isabelle broke the silence by asking, "is Lucas really your name?"

"Yes," Luke answered and sat down on the the chair opposite them, "and I'm not a huge fan of it for reasons I don't want to say to you. I prefer being called Luke anyways because it's shorter and easier."

Isabelle burst out laughing, "well, that's nice to know. I can actually use this for something."

"No, please don't!" Luke pleaded, "just call me Luke."

"Alright," Isabelle paused for dramatic affect before saying, "Lucas."

Luke looked like he was about to do something when Jared burst through the door and announced, "it's time."
