The Married Mistress

☆Acceptance

Derek

"Trisha, I told you that you didn't have to do that." I say to the little old lady infront of me that is known as my royal helper as she holds up a big wedding quilt that she knitted.

Everyone one of my siblings is appointed a royal helper exactly two days after there born.

My father and mother started this tradition after my father had such a hard time growing up.

Trisha was my grandfather's most trusted maids daughter that my father hung out with when he was younger. He always looked up to her as the 'older girl that knows the royal ways' since she was the one who helped him in the castle when he was younger.

I had made a joke to her one day that she could knit me a large quilt for my wedding as a gift since it was her new hobby and she took it literally. I took the quilt from her hands and it felt heavy.

"Trisha, how big is this?" I ask almost struggling to hold it.

"20 feet long Derek, you said large." 20 feet?! She definitely took it literally! How did her little arms even hold this? "Don't underestimate me boy." She said with a warning tone.

I couldn't help but gulp. Trisha meant business, I learned that the hard way. She just laughed at my face, gave me kiss on the cheek and walked away.

She had stopped me on my way to my dad's office to give me the quilt. She probably went to face time her new grandchild that was born two days ago. She hasn't stopped face timing her daughter since the baby was born. It's her second grandchild. Her daughter, Elizabeth lives in the Valley because her mate was a human and she decided to move to Dillons Valley because she didn't want to take him away from his human ways. Elizabeth had her first child 3 years ago it was little boy named Kyle, her newborn now is named John. Kyler, her mate is very happy with his two boys.

I give the quilt to one of the maids in the hall telling her to drop it on my bed, then walking towards my father's office.

Just arriving at my father's office door I see a plack hanging on the door that read 'Jimmy Christopher Sterling's Office'.

I'm thinking about turning around and just when I'm about to I get stopped by his voice.

"Come in son." My father's gruff voice sounds from the other side of the door. Damn werewolf senses! I grab the doorknob and open his door walking in.

Shutting it behind me I go and sit in the chair infront of his desk.

"Did you need something father?" I ask slightly nervous, my father was a intimidating man even though I new he loved me very much. He really only showed softness around my mother.

"Yes son, I wanted to ask you one more time... are you sure you want to do this?" I tensed, at least it was better than the first time. The first time he yelled at me for 30 minutes then didn't talk to me for a month, till my mother made us make up.

"Yes father, she makes me happy." My wolf, Check thought otherwise though, that it was wrong to marry Rose. But I just blamed it on my nerves.

"Very well, then I will have to except her as my daughter in law. Mabye some time after the wedding I can have a dinner with her?" I smiled, this was the father that played with me and Caden in the grass, and made sure I was always careful with Grant and Sheri, and was the first one there after I fell down. We haven't been as strong as we used to be since I started dating Rose, and it felt like I was getting him back.

"Of course dad, I'm sure she'll love that!" I exclaimed trying to sound professional but my voice was laced with excitement.

He just chuckled at my childishness. The chuckle I've missed for too long.

"Bye baby." Tim said giving me one last peck before walking out the door to work. Bella was already down for her morning nap.

"Bye!" I called after him walking into the house and shutting the door. Making my way to the living room to pick up Bella's toys since we played with them this morning after breakfast before Bella's nap. It helps tire her out and we get to spend family time together.

After the living room is back in one piece I make my way to my room to get ready, seeing as I take my showers before I go to bed. (Up Top). Once I was ready I went to the computer room to check my emails. When you work at a very large company you learn to do that every morning.

I see a email from one of the members of my group, Jeff. I am in charge of a small group that works for the company. Yes I just graduated last year but in my family I wouldn't have even had to got to college to be offered this position.

Anyway the email said he was confused about some documents I sent him last night to anagram. I double checked the documents and saw that I sent him Bella's doctor apontiment overview.

I instantly felt embarrassed seeing as I was in such a rush last night I sent him the wrong documents. I sent him an email back apologising and sending the correct documents to him.

Luckily he was understanding of my struggle since he had four kids himself. Truthfully Tim was playing video games while I was taking care of Bella last night while trying to get through my work load.

But I understood that he was working all day and needed a stress relief. Not that I didn't either but sometimes you have to make sacrifices for the people you love.
