Makayla's P.O.V
It's been two weeks since I seen Damian's wolf. Every night since then we go for a walk through the woods around our house, him in his wolf form. Last night we laid by the lake and I fell asleep cuddled up to the side of his large furry body with his head laid across my legs. He woke me when Dj's cries sounded through the monitor.
Today we're are going to his family's house for lunch and staying over for dinner as well. Most of his family will be there and it'll be close to a full house. They have such a large family and it melts my heart to see everyone interacting together, family is the most important thing to them and I wish that's how it's always been for me
Back home family wasn't what we all depended on, I was always the one looking after Lily since she was born because work was more important to my mother. My father was always at work and then spent most of his nights in a drunken haze. My brother always wanted to be like my parents and spent all of his time studying so he could get into a good college to become just like them.
I love being around these people even though I'm suppose to fear them, most of them except me as one of their own. Hands grab my hips and I look up in the mirror to see Damian standing behind me in black slacks, black dress shirt, black bow tie, black shoes, and a black suit jacket. Black looks amazing on him but I've never seen him in anything but.
The weather is starting to break and I have a bright blue skater skirt on with a black lace bralette and black open-toe heels. There are gold studs in my ears and a gold necklace around my neck. My white 3/4 sleeved blazer is laid on the end of the bed while my soft curls fall down my back. My make up is light and nails are painted white.
I smile at Damian in the mirror "Is this okay?" I ask and add "I have the blazer to put on" I say and he lightly kisses my neck
"You look beautiful. Lily wanted to dress herself and wouldn't let me help so you're probably going to have to work with that. Dj is in a pair of his little jeans with a momma's boy onesie and socks" I look up at him in disbelief
"You got him and yourself ready already? And tried to help LIly... Did I really take that long?" He laughs and leans to kiss me softly
"No babe, it's pretty simple to get Dj ready and I never take much time. You actually don't take long at all compared to other girls I know" I don't comment not wanting him to go any further with that statement "Meaning my sisters, cousins, aunt, and even my mom. Imogen took three times as long as you" He says and I feel better instantly. I walk from his grasp and put the blazer on before walking out to Dj's room to get a bag ready for him.
I grab the black diaper bag with blue detailing, Lucy got quite a few diaper bags so I had a variety to choose from, I stuff diapers and wipes inside and decide I won't need any bottles because I breastfeed and don't have the time to pump. I put a few pacifiers in the side pocket and grab two extra outfits in case of an accident. I grab a few burp cloths and a blanket and place them inside. That should be enough
I turn to find Damian standing behind me watching my every move. I smile and hand him the diaper bag as I walk out of the room and into Lily's room to find her in her underwear "Lils. Why aren't you dressed yet?" I ask and she looks at me for a minute as if trying to decide something "What's wrong?"
"Is Uncle Damian a bad guy?" She asks and I'm taken back by her question and I hear him move closer to the other side of her door
"Of course not sweetie! Why would you even ask that?" I ask and think back to the last few days, she has been really distant with him. She went from playing with him every chance she got to staying in her room and demanding she play alone
"I-I saw... He was like the bad guys that took me before Callie found me... He was a dog! You were there!" It's like she starts hyperventilating and I don't know what to do. She must have seen Damian and I one night when she was suppose to be in bed
"Damian is a wolf Lily but he's not a bad person. I always thought they were all bad as well Lils but you have to think about all the good Damian has done" I know I probably don't make any sense to her but Lily always surprises me with the amount of knowledge her four year old mind has
"He told be he was bad before... He said it!" I sigh thinking back to the night Damian had cried to Lily because he thought I didn't see how much he cared for me. The same day I met the family and the same day everyone found out I was pregnant
"Babygirl, I promise Damian is a good man" I hear the door creak and I turn to see Damian standing in the doorway with tears forming in his eyes
"Are you afraid of me Lily?" His voice cracks and she grabs my legs nodding her head quickly "I- Lils.... I would never hurt you princess" He starts walking towards us but she gets completely behind my legs "Makayla?" He looks at me for help
"Lily! I know I told you people like Damian were bad but I was wrong. Damian love us Lily and you shouldn't be afraid of him. Did he hurt me?" I ask her and she comes out from behind me and nods
"He told me he was a bad man and that he had hurt you sissy" She says and I drop to my knees in front of her
"When you seen him as a wolf, did he hurt me?" I ask and she slowly shakes her head "Everyone makes mistakes Lily but you have to forgive them. Damian had hurt me when he told you that but I forgave him. He's a good man and he really loves you, he's hurting because you're scared of him." I look up to see that the tears had fallen over and he was now silently crying while listening to us "Look what you did" I tell her using the last resort, guilt
She looks up and her eyes widen "I'm sorry Uncle Damian!" She says loudly as she quickly hugs his legs. I turn on my knees to watch what happens "I don't want to make you cry" She tightens her grip on his legs "I'm sorry, I'm not scared anymore" He gets down on his knees and pulls her to his chest hugging her close to him.
