Second Chance With You

Chapter 10

It was a cool summer day.
The young man had decided to just lie down and busk in the sun. 
He wasnt in the mood for a crowd and so he decided to go out on his own. 

He was just about to fall asleep when the wind blew his way and he caught a scent that got him wide awake within 2 seconds.
It smelled like a flower garden on the first day of spring.

Lavender was the dorminant scent but somehow it seemed to pull him in and cause his wolf to stir. 
At first he walked at a normal pace but ended up fully shifting into his wolf as he got closer to the source of the scent. 

Finally he slowed down where the scent was strongest until he came to a clearing and the sight before him was breathtaking. 
He saw the most beautiful little wolf he had ever seen. 

Its fur was as white as snow and looked puffy and fluffy. 
He just wanted to bury his snout in that fur and take in the sweet scent. 

He then accidentally stepped on some dead leaves waking the beautiful wolf. 
The little wolf jumped up in shock and growled at the bigger wolf looking ready to attack but after a while it seemed to sniff its scent and visibly calm down before giving the bigger wolf a confused look. 

The small white wolf then yipped happily before approaching the other and licking the others face. 
Their peace was interrupted with the sudden sound of broken twigs and leaves and they realised too late that they were surrounded by dark wolves with red eyes. 

Rex woke up just when he was getting attacked. 

He was relieved it was just a dream. 
With all the strange thing happening in his life so far he was finding it difficult to differentiate between what's real or a fantasy. 

Now that he knew about wolves he was now dreaming about them. 
He decided to take a bath and get dressed for the day. 
Looking at his reflection he checked for any bruises or pain but they was nothing. 

"My ribs were broken and I almost got choked to death but now I feel great. I could really get used to the werewolf healing" he said to himself. 
As soon as he got ready for the day he wore the T-shirt and sweatpants  Iris had left him on the bed. 

Rex tried his best to tune out the voices downstairs but it seemed he still  needs some time to get used to these super werewolf senses. 
They were talking about him and throwing questions all in  Iris' direction.  

He was relieved that his mate didn't give out too much information. 
As much as he still had no idea who  Iris was or who all these people were he still felt comfortable somehow.

As if being with them was home. 
It was weird but that's how he felt.
He took a deep breath before finally deciding to go downstairs and face the household.

 Iris's POV

"For all we know he could be some serial killer" Roan said as he crossed his arms.
"We don't trust this guy so you need to stay away from him" Kin added. 

"You two need to calm down. He is my mate and I saved him from near death. He is harmless" I said more than annoyed about how the twins were acting. 
"What if our real dad comes along and you are already getting it on with some stranger lookalike" they both said at the same time. 
"He could be your dad. We just need some time to find out" I said.

" Iris the twins are right. We need to be careful before fully taking him in. It could be a trick or some witches spell" Chris said. 
"Its not a trick. He is real and the connection we have is not an illusion" I said getting even more frustrated. 

"I think everyone is right. Even if he your mate  Iris we still need to be careful" Shaun said and everyone agreed. 
"Okay fine. But you two don't try to kill him again" Iris said to his sons. 

"We can't make any promises" they said at the same time. 
"Just listen to your dad or I won't..." Orla whispered the rest in Roan's ear since she was sitting on his lap. 

The twins gave each other a look before sharing a deep sigh.
"Fine" they both said. 
I first got a whiff of his intoxicating scent before I got trapped into his captivating eyes. 

I thank the moon goddess for the man before me. 
Whether it was my original mate or not I was already helplessly in love with him. 

The past 150 years of depression completely forgotten. I was happy and he was mine.
" Iris snap out of it" I finally looked away and realisedCedric had been calling me.

I looked around the room and everyone was clearly trying to hold back a laugh. Kaden was completely failing. 
Well except the twins who looked mad.
I closed my eyes and covered my obviously now pink cheeks embarrassed. 

"Whipped" Luke giggled.
Rex cleared his throat and seemed a bit uncomfortable. 
He was about to take a seat next to me when Kin suddenly changed seats blocking his way leaving the seat next to Roan vacant. 
Rex silently took the seat and gave me a sweet smile which I gladly returned.

Rex's POV

"I hope you are hungry. I cooked a feast for breakfast"  the short doey eyed boy with black hair said as he placed a plate of pancakes on the table.

"Thank you. I don't really eat that much though"  I responded with a smile.
"You're a werewolf now and that means your appetite is ten times bigger" he said before giving me a heart shaped smile. 
"My name is Keith and this childish one is my mate Kaden and that duplicate of him is our son" he said pointing at the tall tanned male, with black hair with white highlights, sitting next to him.

"I'm not childish"  Kaden complained as he pouted. I smiled because he was acting pretty childish. 
" Its nice to meet you" Cole their son responded politely.
"My name is Luke and this is my mate Seth. The beauty next to you on his lap is our daughter Orla" a cute male with light blond hair (who looked more like a girl) and pretty. eyes said as he pointed at the tall pokerfaced guy, with bright orange/brown hair sitting next to him. 

"Hi" was the only word he said without changing his expression. 
"Hey" Orla said with a wave and smile. It was clear where Orla got her looks from.
"My name isCedric. I'm the most awesome joker and the coolest guy here and this little beauty next to me is my adorable mate Xerxes. The little beauty next to Cole is our daughter Aurora" the guy with the chesnut blonde hair said with a grin which looked ridiculous. 

"little? I'm way older than you you idiot" xerxes responded before turning to face me, ignoring his pouting mate. 
"Hello. Please don't mind my mate he forgot to take his meds" xerxes said followed by a few laughs and giggles from the others. He had a pretty face and black/grayish hair.

Aurora just blushed and waved. 
"Hello. My name is Ty and this dragon next to me is my mate Chris" the panda looking guy said.
"Hi" Chris said with a small smile.
"Hi. My name is Shaun and this is my mateLeo" Shaun had a warm smile along withLeo. 

"Its nice to meet you all. I know I'm a complete stranger but thank you for allowing me to stay here. My name is Rex, Royal Rex"  I introduced myself and they all gasped in response.
