I hope you guys like Lila and Brayleigh. Their characters are so bright and warm and I adore them both.

"When does Ezra get back? I miss his vampire butt," Lila sighed as we sat on my couch. I looked at the time on the clock that was positioned on the wall and sighed.

He had said it wouldn't be until later in the night. I hoped he would be back soon. He had only been gone a day and I already missed him dearly. He said he was bringing his mate back too, and I was eager to meet her.

Ezra hadn't spoken of her much whilst he was home. I only heard a few things about her every now and then. I was excited to meet her because if she was good enough for Ezra, then she was good enough for me.

"He said tonight but I'm sure it won't be until later. You don't have to wait up with me," I told Lila. She shook her head at me and kicked her legs up on my lap.

She sighed and got comfortable on the couch. "No way am I leaving! I love Jenny. She's the best."

I nodded at her as I realised that Ezra's mate's name was Jenny. It was a nice name, cute and short. I liked it.

"She's a better cook than Ezra too. You'll get fat with her food," Lila said with a grin. I felt my beast drool and couldn't help but laugh. I had been eating my own made food for two nights and it sucked.

I had to admit to myself that Ezra was in fact a better cook than I was. He had raw talent. But I was way too cocky to admit to him that he was better at cooking than I was.

Lila and I sat on the couch watching movies for hours. She had fallen asleep halfway through the first movie. I was dozing off when I heard the door knob to the front door jiggling. I shot up hurriedly and rubbed my eyes.

I glanced over at Lila. She was breathing softly, clutching the pillow under her head. She was so peaceful and I smiled. My wolf puffed and felt good to know that she was safe.

I carefully got up and made sure not to wake her. She stirred slightly in her sleep. I pulled the blanket over her and kissed her forehead before walking out the room.

In the kitchen stood Ezra and his mate, Jenny. I grinned at the two of them when they turned to me.

"Hi there, princess. Miss me?" Ezra greeted me with a smile. I nodded at him as he hugged me. He pulled away and then motioned to Jenny.

Jenny was gorgeous. Beautiful.

"This is my mate, Jenny. And Jenny, this is Alison," Ezra introduced us quickly. I smiled at her and she came forwards. She hugged me tightly, and my beast purred some more. She liked this female already.

"So you're the girl that Ez never stops talking about. You feel so strong," Jenny said with a smile as she pulled away. I smiled and nodded at her and Ezra scoffed.

"I don't talk about her all the time," Ezra retorted, even though he looked guilty. Jenny just rolled her eyes at him and I giggled softly.

"Whatever you say, Ez," Jenny said, winking at me. I giggled some more and Ezra role his eyes.

"Is Lila asleep?" He asked me, sniffing the air. I nodded at him and motioned back to the living room.

"She passed out after the first movie. Alfie worked us hard today," I told him. Jenny chuckled a little.

"That man loves tiring out children," Jenny said. I nodded at her in agreement. Alfie worked everyone hard. It was exhausting and difficult but it made us stronger and it made us better. He just wanted the best of us. Everyone knew that.
