The Ghosts of my Past [Completed]

7. Mate

"He doesn't!" Isabell quikly said as she saw my face. "I just reconised him in her. They really do look alike you know"
I moaned softly. "Please tell me you are joking!"
"Definetly not, she has his nose and there is a face she makes sometimes. All frowny and so. Spitting image if him!. And their eyes do look a like. But I don't think more people are able to see that. They don't know her as well as we do" she hooked her arm through mine. "Don't worry. I won't tell and we are going to miami anyway."
"Yeah, About that... I think we have to stay a bit longer."
I bit my lip. What was I going to say. I couldn't tell her Damian threatend me. If he would hurt my baby, he would definetly not hesitate to maybe hurt Isabell too. And she was a bit impulsif at times.
"There is a reason Damian is here. He came to tell the pack about the vampires lurking around in our forest. You know about the vampires right?"
"Oh crap" Isabell knew about vampires. She knew them all to well. As me she had a thing for bab boys. But a different kind. the vampire kind. And we became friends in outr first year after I saved her live. She was hooking up with a vampire at a party and I just knew something bad was going to happen. And there was. I got there just in time. The bloodsucker had no intentions of keeping her alive.
"They won't get into town, I promise but It might not be as safe to leave now." She nodded.
"And what about Damian?"
"He will always be bad news... but I think the Alpha knows. So we just have to stay close to others and we will be fine."

I started the day off with a few good lies. I had no idea if we would be fine. Damian, Vampires, Ambers father. God this would maybe turn into the summer of hell! All I really cared about was keeping Amber safe. Maybe, if I would keep that in mind it wouldn't be that bad. I was here under the eye of our Alpha. We would get a new Alpha, Blaine, in a few weeks and I knew he would be just as good as his father And Josh would make a great Beta. I just hoped they would leave me to do my own thing like I was used too. Alpha Daniel seemed to sort of trust me.
My mother was almost in tears when we got home. She had been so worried. That was weird for me. I wasn't used to her worries. Even my dad seemed relieved to see me step back in the house again. They knew about the vampires in the forest and the rogues in town. They told me I was not allowed to leave the house after dark. That almost made me laugh. I was 21 now, they couldn't tell me what to do and what not. But to be honest. I wasn't planning on leaving the house at all as long as Damian was in town.

"Here, let me watch Amber for you two girls go do something... the basement is still yours. We didn't change it so you can go and dance if you want too" My mom had Amber in her arms. We just had some tea and lunch. Amber seemed really comfy with my mom. I still felt weird and kind of edgy each time I let her out of my arms. But I knew my house was safe. Although my dad still seemed to dislike my baby, I knew he would protect her with his life though, She was family. And wolfs... we protected family!
"Ohw yes! I need to see those new moves of yours Lill!" Liam looked exited. He always loves to see me dance. I frowned. "I am out of shape, really, I gave birth, like 6 weeks ago!"
"You are fine! Now come on! I need to see that basement of yours!"
Ofcourse Isabell was exited too, We always danced together. The dance studio we are trying to set up will be from both of us. I rolled my eyes at her and got on my feet. "Let me get changed then we can see how in shape I am." We both went upstairs to get our dance gear on. Wich meant Yoga pants a short sport top and something loose covering that.
We got downstairs and went straight down to the basement. I took one look at my mom chatting to Amber. My dad was right beside her and I could actually see him smile... As I walked down the stairs to the basement I smiled too.

"This is pretty cool!"
Isabell stood in the middle of my dancefloor. My dad turned the basement in a smal dancestudio when I was 8 and obsessed with being a Ballerina. I understand now they never really wanted me to be one. They wanted to keep me here and hoped that the studio would help. But It didn't change much. I still wanted to see the world. I wanted to train great dancers, create a dance team and travel the world with them. Amber would have to tag alonge now. But If she was even a bit like me she wouldn't mind. And with Isabell by my side we would do just fine.
"It's just a bit small" I told her as I walked to the music instalation and plugged my phone in. "Let's stretch" I said turning the music up. I closed the door and the room was pretty sound proof. (my dad never really liked my music)
Ariana Grande blasted through the stereo as we both started stretching. Liam had come down as well and took place on the sofa that was against one of the walls.
"You like what you see" Isabell said in a flirting way as she looked at him wile doing a split.
"Oh don't you dare to get all over my brother!" I called out immediately.
"What?"
I looked at Isabell who was pretending to be al inocent. I knew my brother was handsome and al but he was a werewolf. He would be finding his mate someday... but beter not in my best friend. I needed her with me!
"So enough with the stretching this is getting boring!" Isabell said as she walked up to the stereo and started looking through the music on my phone. A few seconds later A loud drum blasted through the room. I smiled. It was the song of a dance we started working on when I was still pregnant with Amber. "Can you do it?" Isabell asked.
I nodded as I shook my body and jumped up and down a few times. "I hope so"
"Fall out boy... good choice" Liam grinned making himself comfertable as he watched me getting into postition.

As I started dancing al my worries just left me. It was me and the music. Isabell was there ofcourse, but we moved like one, jumped and flew like we always did. There was no need to think. I knew this, I knew the steps and every movement. When we finished I couldn't help but smile. I was breathing heavily, I was not as fit as before, and my whole body hurted. But I could still do it! Both me and Isabell let ourselfs drop to the ground dripping of sweat. But we were laughing. "Awsome... you are a bit rusty though Lill."
"Oh shut up!"
It was only then I saw them half way down the stairs. Josh, Elijah and Blaine, Our future Alpha.
I wanted to just close my eyes. Pretent like this was not happening. For F*ck sake, couldn't I just catch a break!
"I do see why you outgrew our little town, Lillith" Josh was now towering above me reaching out his hand to pull me up.
"Oh now you do?" I took his hand and got back on my feet and took a deep breath. Shit, I went a bit overboard I gues. "You okay?" Josh said. I nodded "No worries. But what do I ow the honor of you guys visiting my humble dance studio? Need some lessons?"
Josh just laughed, but Blaine did anything but that. He looked furiously at me. I ingnored Elijah. But he did the same to me. Funny that... but the least of my worries.
"I need to speak with you!" Blaine pointed his finger at me. My eyebrows rose. "I already talked to your dad" I said. "I don't care... you told our secrets to a human! You know that Rogue... who knows you brought him here!"
My mouth dropped. Was he kidding. And I should have know better than to get angry at the future Alpha but hell I did!
"Are you kidding me! Really! You honestly think I would do that! Get my baby and my Family in danger like that! You must be seriously stupid if you think that!" I had put my hands on my hips and looked at him furiously. He was no Alpha jet and I could do that... although the look he gave me almost made me cringe... Almost. Maybe I was turning Rouge myself...
"Don't you dare to talk to me like that I am..."
"Shut up you big stupid brainles piece of mucle"
Isabell stepped in front of me her hands on her hips looking Blaine straight in the eye. Liam new better to do that. He was part of the pack... I was sort of a rebbel, but I knew I was stepping a line now. But Isabell could do whatever she wanted. And she even lifted her hand and even poked Blaine in his chest.
"Lillith. Would. Never. Do. That!" With every word she poked him. And he didn't move a muscle. Blaine stared at Isabell and then took her hand. A smile spread across his face.

I couldn't see her face, I couldn't see Isabell, but she was quiet. She didn't say a word. This was a bad sign. A very bad one. And as I looked at Josh who had a stupid grinn on his face I knew it. Blaine just found his mate. His friggin mate was my best friend!

Sooo How you like this twist? It might be a bit cliche but I like it. haha. And who knows... Maybe she doesn't want him? What do you think?
