After training, I took a long hot shower. I was tired for the day's work and I knew that it would be rewarding in the evening to sit down with Lila and Brayleigh. I looked forward to having them come over. My beast liked them and I trusted them.

After my brother told them all about what happened to me, the reason I came here, they were so understanding. They didn't treat me differently and they made me feel safe.

It felt even better to know that Brayleigh could relate to me. She knew what I was going through and she knew that I was torn up over it. She understood better than anyone and it felt good to know.

I trotted down the hallway, humming to myself as I glanced at the time. It was time to start making dinner. I decided on a simple spaghetti with vegetables and special tomato sauce.

Ezra has left all the good foods for me and I was keen to use them. I liked cooking, and it was nice to finally be the one who did the cooking again. Back home, I always cooked for my brothers. They were hopeless at it, and they couldn't cook without setting something on fire.

But Ezra was the main cook in the household. His food was good but my beast always rumbled because we were sure that we were better.

I cooked fast, chopping up vegetables, boiling the pasta and cooking the meat. The wonderful smells of all the cooking food quickly filled the cabin and made it smell magnificent. I inhaled deeply and heard a knock at the door.

I grinned and stepped out the kitchen, rushing to the front door. I pulled it open and was greeted by a very happy looking Lila. She flashed me a wide grin and then hugged me.

"Food smells great! Brayleigh is coming around in a little. Kade was being 'a big baby' apparently," Lila said as she rubbed my cheek and then stepped into the cabin. I nodded at her and eyed the beers and wine in her hands.

My beast rumbled thirstily. She loved beer.

We shut the front door and followed Lila back into the cabin. She shoved the drinks into the refrigerator and then stirred the pasta a little before turning around to face me again.

She sighed and smiled. I returned the gesture and stirred the pot of meat, vegetables and sauce. Dinner was almost ready.

"So when do your brothers get back?" I asked her, starting a conversation. I was eager to meet them. Lila talked about them a lot. She thought very highly of them, despite all the times she groaned about how annoying they were.

"Well, Liam told everyone that the whole group would be back by next week. But I think Henry is making them come back earlier. Liam is Henry's Beta, by the way," Lila told me. I raised my eyebrows at her.

Her brother was Henry's Beta? Really?

"But Lucas said that they were probably going to take a little longer. So I'm hoping that it'll be next week. The house is so quiet without all of them there," Lila replied quickly. I smiled and nodded at her.

Apparently, Lila's parents liked the letter 'L' so they decided to name all their children names that started with that letter. Hence why there was Liam, Lucas, Leon and Lila.

It was a mouthful but easy to remember.

"Sounds cool. I hope I get to meet them. You've talked about them a lot," I chuckled a little at her. Lila giggled and nodded, tucking her hair behind her ear.
