Chapter 17 Acceptance

I went home with Ryce and Sean went back to his house to pick up some of his things so he could stay at mine for the next couple of days. It wasn't really talked about that he would stay it was just assumed, we both knew that we couldn't go overnight without seeing each other, and he didn't even seem to mind that I was going to skip school for the next two days to spend some time with Ryce.

The two boys actually seemed to have a lot in common, and the conversation was light and friendly. We made dinner then watched a DVD in the lounge. My Mom was out as usual which was a lot easier as she fancied the pants off of both of the boys so she would be trying to get them into bed the whole night. She always threw herself at Ryce whenever he would stay but it never got her anywhere though, he would just laugh it off.

When the movie finished I decided I needed to soak in the tub, I wanted to give Ryce his chance. He'd been shooting glances at Sean all night and I knew he wanted to talk to him 'man to man', the thought made me laugh, I bet Sean is going to get the big brother, you hurt her and you'll regret it speech. "I'm gonna go take a bath" I said standing up and giving Sean a kiss on the top of his head 'play nice' I sent to him which made him roll his eyes. He slapped my ass gently as I walked past with a quiet whistle. I laughed and made my way upstairs planning on laying in the tub until I resembled a prune.

Sean's POV

"I'm gonna go take a bath" Tyler said standing up 'play nice' she sent into my head me making me roll my eyes, as if I would do anything. She kissed the top of my head sending the familiar sparks through my body. I thought about going with her so I could watch her bathe, maybe wash her back, maybe even get in the bath with her......I felt a movement in my pants, Crap! Stop thinking about it Sean. Tyler moved past me, her ass looking so nice I wanted to bite it, I settled on slapping it gently instead and giving her a little whistle making her laugh.

As soon as she was out of ear shot Ryce turned to me, I knew he would. He had been shooting me looks whenever her back was turned but playing Mr Nice Guy when she looked in his direction. I knew he wanted to talk to me. "Get on with it then Ryce, I know you want to talk to me" I said simply. "Look Sean you seem like a nice guy don't get me wrong, I can see that you love her and she loves you, but I'm worried, you don't know about her past, if you did you would know that she's fragile, she's vulnerable" he said sadly looking down at his lap.

"Ryce I know about her past" I said, his head snapped up to look at me in shock, "She told me all about it, about her stepfather, about what he did to her, what he made her do, I know, she told me about it before we bonded" I said quietly not really liking talking about her to anyone, it wasn't my past to tell. "So don't you think that you shouldn't have bonded with her?" he asked firmly, I shook my head. "She's my other half, I make her happy, I'll always be there for her, protect her, why is that so wrong?" I asked.

I knew that he was only looking out for her asking me this, but I could also tell that part of his motivation was jealousy. He wanted her, not in the strong bond way I did, but he was in love with her, wanted to be with her. "She shouldn't have to deal with anything else, she's already been through so much, now she has to worry about you being a shifter as well, surely your putting undue pressure on her, how in the hell did you two bond anyway?" he asked shaking his head. "She's my bond-mate Ryce, we bonded in the normal way, before I even saw her I knew she was mine, I could feel it, she could too but she tried to deny it" I said laughing at the memory of me chasing her around.
