"Odetta!" Javier squeals as he runs and flings himself me, almost knocking me off my feet.

He buries his face in my thigh and pulls away before I kneel down to his height. A few tears slide down his cheek and I try wipe his tears away but they just keep on coming.

"I really missed you and I cried every night and—" He's a blubbering mess now. I shush him and pull him in closer for a hug. He's crying so hard now and taking deep breaths with every word.

"It's okay I'm here." I assure him but he cries even harder. My eyes widen in surprise and I gently pat his back in comfort. He stays like that for a while before pulling away and wiping his tears. He then runs over to his father who picks him up with a grin.

"Did you bring her daddy?" Javier buries his face into the crook of his neck.

"Yeah. I knew you'd be happy." He says so softly that I can't imagine he's the same person scowling at me a few hours ago. Javier starts crying all over again. I laugh and stand up from my kneeling position before watching them.

"I love you, Thank you so much daddy." He cries harder. Casper just accepts this all while muttering soothing words to him.

I look over at a woman I recognize as Isabella. She's smiling at me and I smile back at her.

"Izzy can you believe this?"

She nods as Alpha Casper places Javier back down on the ground on his feet. He runs to Isabella and drags her over to me, "Izzy this is Odetta. She's my best friend."

"We've met before already Javi." She says and hugs me as she continues speaking to him. "Are you that excited?"

"He must be." I smile down at him.

She chuckles, "it always seems like he forgets about me when he is with you. Welcome to our home."

"And what is going on here?", I recognize Beta Victor. He saunters into the sitting room and pauses when he sees the tear stained face of Javier, Sebastian and I.

"You're actually here?" He asks and looks at Alpha Casper, "You sly devil, you actually did it."

Alpha Casper reluctantly nods and he smiles.

"How did he get you to come here. Wait, let me guess—he threatened you."

We both have knowing smiles, "Something like that. But I'm really here from the goodness of my heart. Plus I wouldn't let his sour attitude stop me from coming to see sweet Javi."

"Both Javier and Casper haven't stopped talking about you since we got here." He straightens his left hand towards me and I take it "Thank you for actually coming. I'm sure Casper wasn't pleasant company."

"He really wasn't." I say and ignore the glare from Alpha Casper.

"If I could have a dollar for every time one of these boys said your name, I would be a fucking billionaire."

I nod "I'm flattered. I'm sure it's all Javi."

"You'd be surprised."

I turn to introduce Sebastian, "And this is my Guard, Sebastian. He's been tasked with my protection."

My it's because he always has a carefree and easy going attitude around me that I forget how hard and threatening he looks. He hard mask on his face and simply nods in acknowledgement. Javier walks to him and pokes his leg. "I know you."

"Of course, you know everyone" Alpha Casper teases as he walk by us.

Javier ignores his comment and looks at Sebastian in deep thought before his face lights up, "You're that man that showed Odetta and I the library." Sebastian just nods again and Javier walks up to me.

"Well I have to go for a meeting right now but I'll be back before midnight. Want me to tuck you in?"Javier grumbles about how he's a big boy now and Alpha Casper laughs. He kisses Javier's forehead before narrowing his eyes at me and turning around to leave.

"Childish fucker." I mutter and he stops for just a split second before leaving.

"This is fucking great. This house has gotten a lot more interesting." Victor says with a grin and I look at him and Isabella. They both have smiles of amusement.

"I can't wait to see how riled up you can get him." Isabella laughs and gives me a thumbs up. "I have to leave too. Meeting and all you know." Victor says and kisses Isabella's cheek before smiling at me and high-fiving Javier. He leaves, following Alpha Casper.

"I don't want you to curse like daddy." Javier tells me referring to earlier.

I nod, "I promise—cross my heart and hope to die." I cross my heart and that seems to satisfy him.

"Let me show you to your room. And maybe a quick tour of the place." Isabella says but Javier grabs my hand immediately and pulls me out of the room.

"I'll do it."

I laugh as he drags me up the stairs of the mansion. After a while, we finally stop in front of the brown door to my room. I struggle to push open the doors, they're so heavy for whatever reason. "The doors are kinda special you see. You can hear any sound when you're inside but people outside can't hear what goes on inside." Isabella explains

"Except for Javi's room." She continues, "We need to listen to whatever goes on."

Sebastian steps forwards and tries. The door swings open at his command. The corner of his lips twitch, "That easy."

I roll my eyes and step into the room.

"It's so beautiful." I gasp.

"I decorated it just in case. We weren't really sure if you'd come back with Casper. We know how he can be."

I look around the room and see my suitcases sitting beside my bed.

"Victor and I's room is just two doors down the hall and your guard's room is opposite yours. We want you to feel safe here.", Isabella tells me before taking her leave, "Let me show your guard to his room."

Sebastian follows after her.

"My room is upstairs with Daddy." Javier pouts and sits on my bed. "I want to stay down with you."

I ruffle his hair and open the closet to see how I'll arrange my clothes in it. "You can come sleep with me or I'll come sleep with you. How about we watch a movie after dinner.:"

"Yes." He excitedly says.

I let Javier drown me with his rambles about how bored he was without me and how much he missed me. I laughed a bit at some parts and scolded him when he said that he couldn't eat well for a day because eating without me was boring.

"All done." I say and step back from the closet to admire my clean and orderly arrangement. It'll be a mess in a week or so. I pick out sweat shorts and a big T-shirt before changing into them in the toilet.

When I come out, Javier is sitting on my bed not even a bit sleepy. "I want to show you my room before we dinner. Do you cook?" He leads the way and I follow him. I can't cook to save my life but I don't tell him that.

We go up another flight of stairs before we reach his room. "That's daddy's room." He whispers and points to a set of big oak doors. I don't bother looking, I'm not going to be in there anyway. None of my business. We enter his room and I drink it all in.

His room is blue with clouds and airplanes and beautiful drawings on the wall which I'm sure he didn't do. His bedsheets are blue with white clouds on them and his bed frame is a big race car. This room really scream Javier and there's a book shelf beside his bed.

He run to his bed and climbs it after struggling a bit before wiggling under the duvet. "Come on Odetta", he smiles, patting the space beside him in bed.

I climb in beside him and I'm surprised when I fit. He snuggles against me and I throw my arms around him and bring him closer.

We don't say anything, we just stay in each others arms and soon enough his breathing becomes even. I  realize we haven't eaten yet and I don't want to wake him up. He can eat tomorrow morning. I decide to untangle myself from him but he pulls me closer and murmurs something i don't make out. I finally untangle myself and kiss his head before switching off the lights and leaving his room.

I return to my room and after a few minutes after, my stomach growls and I realize that I haven't eaten anything in over seven hours. I leave my room and contemplate on asking Isabella for help but I don't want to disturb her, She and Sebastian must've had dinner earlier. I journey there on my own.

"This is weird." I mutter to myself as I enter the kitchen. I don't feel comfortable at the thought of eating from someone else's kitchen without permission but I push those feelings away and head towards the fridge.

I open the fridge and pull out the bread and butter. I look around for cutlery drawers. The drawers banging shut when I shut them. I take out a knife when I finally find them. I lay out two slices of bread and start to spread butter on a slice.

"What the fuck are you doing in my kitchen?"

I look at alpha Casper's annoyed face. "what kind of question is that? I forget you're more of a bitch at night." I remember the night where he almost broke down my door.

"Answer my question."

"What else would I be doing in the kitchen except looking for something to stab you with."

He moves so fast that I don't even see when moves to my side. He grabs my arm and pulls me closer causing the knife to fall from my hand. A loud clank as it hits the marble counter. He lowers his mouth to my ear level.

"I'm tired of you running your mouth at me. Need I remind you that you're in my pack lands and I can do whatever I want with you so I advice you to watch your words and actions." He says lowly before letting me go and leaving.

Moon Goddess, I hate this man.
