I think you have to understand that just because there are prettier people, you are not ugly. And maybe there are skinnier people, but you are not fast. And yes, maybe there are smarter people, but you are not dumb. And the truth is that somebody's going to love you just the way you are, and it's not going to matter that there are prettier, skinnier or smarter people. Because to at least one person, you're going to be absolute perfection, and they're going to fall in love with you. But before that happens, don't be afraid to fall in love with yourself.

"She's going to do it..." Victor said as he blocked his eyes.

"I seriously can't watch..." Raven said as he turned his face.

"What is she going to do?" Lucien asked as he felt so left out.

"You don't want to know, just hope she doesn't use it on you." Michael said.

"I can't watch, I don't think I can if I wanted to." Cole said.

"That's my girl." Gia smirked.

"What's going on?" Lucien was at a dead end.

"She going to do it, she's going to use her puppy dog eyes."

NOW
~⚜~

"She's going to do what?" Lucien asked as he was clearly lost.

"Her puppy dog eyes." Victor told Lucien with a grin.

"Just know that you will never win any argument, like ever." Raven informed his brother in law.

~^~

"He'll be your little niece or nephew too." Pandora said while titling her head down and looking at Benjamin with her wide doe eyes.

Benjamin smiled at the fact that he would have a little niece or nephew on the way but he couldn't help but feel guilty for all that he had done.

He reluctantly reached his hand out and gently placed it on Pandora's growing tummy. At his touch the baby kicked.

Pandora and Benjamin both beamed at each other while Leslie and Alexia both seemed to be having a moment.

"Can I call you mom now?" Pandora asked Alexia.

"Err, Um, Sure?" Alexia said. To be honest she didn't know what to say. She didn't mind it but she thought of Leslie who just smiled warmly at her.

She had always thought "what if I had told him". She regretted not telling him in the first place but she couldn't change anything now. All she could do is encourage his positive feelings towards them.

She had already accepted the Bloodhounds as they had accepted her. They had this connection, like a mother would love her child and like a child would love their mother. They had that sort of relationship.

Benjamin sighed then covered his head with his hands. "I'm sorry." He said to them with a regretful glint in his eyes.

"I shouldn't have assumed the worst of you, I shouldn't have went after you and I'm sorry." Benjamin continued as she finally raised his head to look as Leslie. The appearance similarities between them were uncanny, Creepy almost.

"I'm not going to say it's okay, but I understand. I would have done the same thing. Although I hope you can forgive me for not being there." Leslie took a deep breath.

"I know we don't know each other and I know you probably don't want to know me but I want you to know I'll be there no matter what and I'll always have time for any of my children which includes you." Leslie ended with a smile.

Although Benjamin did want to know Leslie, he wanted to know his siblings, he wanted to be an overprotective brother. He wanted a father figure that didn't want to kill him out take his mother away.

"I want get to know you. All of you. Even out brothers in the back who are currently listening to our conversation." Benjamin smiled.

"Shit..." Victor hissed.

"You dumbass, and you're the under cover guy..." Raven turned his dramatically.

"That's you, you idiot!" Cole rolled his eyes.

"Huh... Oh yeah." Raven thought out loud.

"Sometimes I feel like I'm the oldest." Pandora told Benjamin as they listened to their siblings.

"Don't be sour Pan." Cole said to his sister as he finally revealed himself.

Benjamin took one look at Cole and whispered. "Mate." In a soft voice.

"WHAT?" Everyone was in total shock.

"I'm just kidding although I do smell something." Cole sighed in relief while Pandora giggled.

"Okay he's definitely out brother." Michael smirked.

"Yep. Although that shocked seriously shocked me. Good one." Raven said to Benjamin. They had started to accept him wholeheartedly.

"If you smell something you should probable follow it. You might find her or him." Lucien came from behind Cole and Raven.

"That's what I felt when I found Pandora, my wolf was pacing restlessly and growling." Lucien explained to Benjamin as he looked towards his wife and gazed at her lovingly. How he adorned her. Lucien went to his wife and placed a gentle kiss on her forehead as he caressed he tummy.

"That's exactly what his doing." Benjamin replied with wide eyes as his tone faltered.

"Go." Alexia encouraged him to find her. The one he longed for, his wolf paced restlessly until he finally awoke from his chair to follow the scent of citrus and nature. A scent that had him addicted at the first whiff

"Yo people." Gia came in finally with a drink in hand.

"Mine." Benjamin growled out as he shot up and stalked his way to Gia. He pulled her flush against his chest and inhaled her scent.

"I did not see that coming..." Michael said.
