Makenna and I walked into Jonas’s diner, she pecked my cheeks, telling me she should go get ready. I grabbed her hand and pulled her back to me, placing my lips against her. She giggled and kissed me back as she wrap her arms around my neck and I felt her lean up, telling me she was standing on her tip toes since her five-four was short to my six-one.

I felt something be thrown on top of our heads and I moved the rag to see it was Maggie who did it, “Stop it you two.”, she said and grinned. “Kissing leads to other things and Cassie and Dylan don’t need any grandbabies yet.”,

Makenna cheeks burned up and she pulled away, “Better get to work.”, she cheerfully said and quickly went behind the counter to pull her dark hair up. “Thirty minutes Shawn or Uncle Jonas will fire your butt.”, she said, her back to me but I could just imagine that chipmunk pink cheeks smile.

“All I need, kitten.”, I told her as I looked around and found Alpha Clyde in the back, my mom on the other side of the boost. As I walked over, I looked at Makenna to see her scowling at me for calling her ‘kittens’. I just chuckled and continued on my way. When I got to the boost, I sat down next to my mom, “So, lets get this over with.”,

“Okay.”, Alpha Clyde—or maybe I should just call him Clyde now. No why in God green earth am I going to call him dad. “Annabelle can’t have children.”, he said and I just gave him a confused look.

“What?”, I asked. “But your daughters and sons—“

“To other women who have the same hair and eye color Annabelle.”, he said, cutting me off. “Your mother at the time had brown hair.”,

My eyes widen, “So wait, all of us are half-brothers and sisters? We all have different mothers?”, I asked and he nodded. “Jeez? What the hell is up with that?”,

“Annabelle wanted children…lots of them.”, he said and shrugged. “We tried for so long after college and we went to the doctors. He said only about thirty percent chance of her getting pregnant. She was ashamed of herself and she went into depression since she thought since she couldn’t give me children, she was worthless. I told her we could always just adopt, but she said she wanted to have a child that has at least my blood. So, she made me find go after women who would seem like they would hand me custody over to me and take the money.”,

“So you used me.”, my mom breathed out in shock.

I ignored her though, “So that’s why she was so nice to me, but sad.”,

He nodded, “Yes. She loves the children like they were on own, don’t get me wrong. She loves them to death. But just you around made her feel depressed again since you couldn’t be her blood also. She always like that when I brought the others.”,

“But wait,” I said, shifting in my seat and pointed at him. “You said you’ll also take Travis, he wasn’t your son. Why?”,

He shrugged, “I’m a generous man.”, he said and I pursed my lips, giving him a ‘yeah right’ look. “Okay, I’m not really. But I thought the more the children in the house, the happier my wife would be. But to my surprise, you mom wouldn’t give up either of you both.”,

“And how do you feel about having children to different women?”, I asked.

“I felt wrong about doing it and I felt dirty for so long. But I would do it all over again if it meant a smile on my mates face and having children that can continue my line. I love them all just like Annabelle does.”, he said.

“Your such a dickhead.’, my mom said. “Do you know how long I wanted to rip your dick off for doing that to me?”,

“Mom.”, I warned, but she continued.

“You lied to me about your name and who you were. It’s because of you why I lost hope and married that bastard James. You were the only man I ever truly loved and your broke my heart into pieces.”,

“I’m sorry I hurt you, Stacy.”, Clyde said. He looked serious to my shock. “I didn’t mean to hurt you and my actions are unforgivable. But Shawn grew up a strong boy I see.”,

“Actually,” I said, prepared for embarrassment. “I was never really strong until I was fourteen, when Travis changed me…into a full wolf I guess.”,

“My side broke out when he did it.”, he said. “That’s how my other children were. They were weak, but when each of them turned thirteen, I turned them. They grew stronger, each having one unique thing about them. Like your speed Shawn, many of your ancestor were well known for they’re speed. Shelby, she has very powerful hearing, she can hear from hundreds of miles away. And Beth can take down fifteen wolves herself.”,

I opened my mouth, but Makenna came up, “Sorry to interrupt, but I need to at least have you guys order one things or I’ll have to kick you out. Uncles policy.”, she said, giving us a small smile and took out the notepad and pen.

“Strange.”, Cylde said. “I’m giving orders to the alpha of Indiana daughter. I’ll take a bacon hamburger with extra bacon and—“

“With tons of cheese fries with bacon pieces on it?”, Makenna said as me and her look at him shock.

“Yeah?”, he said, confused. “How’d you know I was going to say that?”,

She pointed the pen at me, “Same thing he eats. He eats like a hog.”, she said, breaking into a smile and breathed out a chuckle. “Yeesh, I know you hate hearing this, but you both got something more in common.”,

I rolled my eyes, “I’ll just take a chocolate milkshake.”,

My mom didn’t have to order since she worked her. Makenna ripped the piece of paper out and before she turned around, she said, lowering her head down to me, “Now you know how I feel when Dylan and I share something in common.”, she said and turned around quickly.

I leaned out in the booth, “That’s different—ugh!”, I said when she continued and leaned back. I grumbled under my breath and rolled my eyes. “So,” I said, slugging in the boost to get comfortable. “What happens now?”, I asked, placing my hands together and placed them against my stomach.

“Will, you get to know the family.”, he said.

“I’m not leaving the Mond Laufer pack.”, I told him seriously.

He shrugged, “Fine with me, but as long as you take the role as Alpha when the times comes.”, he said and I just sighed heavily. “Meet the family at least and you can come back. If you want to start a relationship, fine. If you don’t, that’s fine with me too. Just as long as you as you keep in contact with me.”,

“Okay.”, I said. “Anything else?”,

“Not that I can think of right now—oh! You don’t have to call me dad if you don’t want to.”, he said and grinned.

I faked laughed, “Ha, your funny. Wasn’t planning on it.”, I said, grinning back. He held out his hand for me to shake, but I hesitated for a second. I leaned up a moment alter and shook it.

Six months later.

“Come on, Mak, take her down!”, I yelled encourage  to Makenna. She giggled and with all her might, she pushed her mother Cassie and Dylan fell back onto the water, screaming. My arms flew up, “Wooo! That’s my girl!”,

Makenna clapped excitedly, “Sorry mom, but that was pricless!”,

Dylan and Cassie got up from the water, glaring at us, “Rematch!”, Dylan said.

“Fine with me.”, I told him, grinning like a manicact. “Get ready to get your ass beat again, old man.”,

After twenty minutes of fighting and knocking over them booth back in the water six time, Makenna called it quits. I took her off from my shoulders and threw her a few inches in the beach water. She sprung up from the water angry, “Shawn! I wasn’t ready for you to do that!”, she said, pinching her nose and groaned. “Ugh, water got in my nose!”,

I chuckled and went up to her, kissing her. We were in Agren-Freaking-Tina and having the time of our lives. It was our first day here and Makenna couldn’t wait to get into the water since the beach house Dylan rented was right next to the beach.

Makenna couldn’t stop smiling the whole time we got here and all she talked about was getting lots of stuff here to bring back and swimming in the water and getting full up on the food here.

Cassie given birth a month ago to a boy who she named Vincent Warren Blackwood. Vincent was Jackson father name who she grown to as her own father and Warren was Dylan middle name. He was back in America being spoiled by her parents and they were always taking care of Makenna two dogs, Embry and Cody. It was hard for Dylan to make Cassie not bring him with cause Dyan didn’t want him on a plane for being a new born and wanted her to have fun, not worried about having to watch him ever second and worry about feeding him and changing him. He wanted to her to have fun until they have to go back and take care of the pack and baby Vincent.

Makenna grown quite found of Vincent and acting like a second mother to him instead of a sister. She loves him so much and gushing over him.

Cassie hit Dylan shoulder, “Shawn’s right, you’re an old man! We use to be able to beat your brother at this game when we were in high school in the school pool!”,

“Me! You were the one who need to push! My job was to make sure Shawn doesn’t hit us.”, he defending. “Okay, Cassie, I’m serious now. You can take off the t-shirt.”, he said.

Cassie was wearing a dark grey t-shirt over her swim suit since she felt uncomfortable being in a two piece since she gain weight. It wasn’t much, but she felt self conscious about it.

Cassie shook her head, “I’m good.”,

“Must I take it off myself?”, he asked, winking at her and she blushed up, looking at us pleading. Makenna just chuckled and laid her head on my chest, wrapping her arm around my waist.

“Get her, daddy.”, she said and Cassie scowled at her before turning around and tried her best to fun in the water, but Dylan quickly caught her and he had a hard time for a minutes from her squirming and struggling, but he manage to rip the shirt off her.

“Ah, beauty to my eyes.’, he said and she covered her stomach with her arms, glaring up at him. He looked over at the other people around swimming, “I better watch my eyes on these Spanish wolves. Let them try and sweet talk you—both of you,”, he said, pointing at Makenna, “with they’re accents.”,

I growled, “They’ll have to get threw me first.”,

Makenna chuckled, “Hmm, I don’t know. That handsome wolf over there in the black swim trunks has had his eyes on me for a while—I’m joking!”, she yelled when I turned around and grabbed my arm. She chuckled, “Jealous, are we?”, she chuckled.

I growled down at her, annoyed. “Don’t play games with me about that.”,

She chuckled and leaned up, kissing my cheek, “Don’t worry, Shawn. You’re the only wolf I can handle right now.”,

“Ha-ha.”, I faked laughed.

Suddenly, I felt myself being pushed and Dylan attacked Makenna by pushing her into the water, “That’s for pulling my hair when you were little.”, he said when he lifted herself up. She splashed water in his fade and her nose scrunched up when she glared at him. He put both hands on the side of her head and leaned down and kissed her forehead.

Makenna had one arm wrapped around my waist and hand lay holding my arm, her head on my chest. Both my arms were around her as we swayed side to side to the slow song. We were out to dinner in a bar / restaurant on the beach and they had a dance floor and knowing Makenna, she just had to have a dance, but away from the others and we were on the sand since she was shy still.

“Did you have a fun day?”, I asked her.

She nodded, “Yeah, I love it here so much. The beach is beautiful and right now, the moon full. Romantic.”, she said, hinting it to me as she bit her lower lip nervously as she looked up at me. “My mom and Dylan are going to be out long tonight, so we’ll have the house to ourselves for a few hours.”,

I sighed heavily, “I don’t know Makenna…”,

She leaned up her tip toes and wrapped her arms around my neck, “I’ll be fine, Shawn. I’m a big girl you know.”, she said, smiling up at me.

“Why are you so calm when I’m as nervous wreck?”, I asked and she giggled. I shrugged, “I don’t know, maybe it’s cause I don’t want to hurt you, I don’t like seeing you in pain.”,

“I’m human, not glass, Shawn.”, she said. “I wont break. And really, I think it’s abnormal for a guy to be holding off on a girl after being together for so many months and not even attempting to do anything physical.”,

I chuckled, “Yeah. Mostly the pressure coming from you.”,

Even in the dim lights, I saw her rosy blush, “Well, I’m a normal teenage girl with hormones, I can’t help it.”, she mumbled. “Anyways, being in Argentina seems like the perfect place. It’s romantic and peaceful.”,

“I’ll only do it if you know your ready. If your not, then I wont.”, I told her.

She smiled, “I am ready, but doesn’t mean I can’t be nervous to. I just have a good way of hiding it. It’s something new and of course I’m going to be nervous, but not scared. Even, tonight we’ll fully commit to the bond, making it us whole.”,

“I guess that’s true.”, I said and smiled down at her. “And Hayden will leave us alone about it too.”,

“Ecstatically.”, she said. “So, will tonight be the night?”,

I hesitated, but nodded, “Yeah.”,

I felt something brightly hit my face and I groaned, bring the blanket over my face. The blasted sun had to ruin everything good? When I didn’t feel Makenna warmth near me, I strected my arm out next to my to grab her back and pull her near me. When I felt nothing but an empty space, my mind raced with questions.

Like, where the hell did my little mate go?

I moved the blanket and quickly leaned up, looking around. When I looked out the glass slid door that lead to the balcony, Makenna was leaning on the ledge, looking out into the blue water. I strected my body as I got up and slid some boxers on before walking out.

She had a pair of black shorts on and a white t-shirt. I wrapped my arms around her arms, trapping her in my arms. I leaned down to her ear, “You scared me there for a second when I woke up.”, I told her.

“Sorry, but today looked beautiful and I wanted to come out and enjoy the morning sun.”, she said. She leaned back on me.

I placed my nose on the crock of her shoulder exhaled her scent. I smelt mine mixed with hers and I loved it all. She was mine fully now. The bite was only three fourths of the commitment and it’s to show others to make sure they back off. Having sex last night was to fully finish it.

“How do you feel?”, I asked her.

She brought her hands up to mine and sighed heavily, “Fine, actually. I thought I would be in pain the morning after, but I don’t. I feel…whole, for cheesy saying, it’s true.”,

“It is.”, I told her.

“I know.”, she said. “It hurt in the beginning, but after I relax, it felt great. How about you?”, she asked, her voice lowering at the end, nervousness building up in her.

I chuckled, “Better then what I ever had before.”,

Not even looking, I can tell she was blushing, “I’ll do better in the future. I felt like I was just a cold fish laying there in the beginning.”,

“Trust me, you did great.’, I told her. “But if your that worried, we can do it again.”, I told, her lifting her up a little and she giggled.

{}

“Come on, Mak, just jump!”, I yelled up at her and she shook her head, holding onto the rope like her life depending on it.

“N-no,” she said. “I could hit a rock or something and die!”,

“You wont hit a rock.”, Dylan said. “Come on, Makenna, it’s fun. It’s like an adrenaline rush, you’ll love it. Just swing out and leg go when we tell you. You’ll be safe, I promise.”,

“I don’t know…”, she said slowly. “I mean, what kind of dad pressure her daughter into jumping off a cliff into a lake!? I’m starting to question you parenting skills daddy.”,

“I’m not a normal parent, I’m a wolf dad, remember that.”, he said.

“Come on, Makenna, just jump!”, Cassie told her. “Look at this way, it’s a once and life time thing to jump off a cliff in Argentina. You might never get to do it again.”,

“Okaayy.”, she said slowly. I saw her moved back with the rope in her hand and three seconds later, she ran and swing out.

“Let go!”, we all yelled when she was in the middle of the air and she did. Her feet were first to go in then her body. We all cheer as she swam back up.

“See, wasn’t that fun?”, I asked as she swam up to me. She wrapped her legs around my waist as I held her up and she pushed all her hair back.

“I guess,”, she said, then breaking out into a smile. “Okay, it was most defiantly an adrenaline rush.”,

After all of us jumped off the cliff thousands of other times, I pulled Makenna over to the waterfall and went behind the fall water where there was space. I crawled onto a large rock and helped her up.

She chuckled, “I swear, Ima lose so much weight on this vacation from swimming.”, she said. “I think I should start lifting weight cause my muscles feels so weak right now.”,

“Hey, no pain, no game.”, I told her and she moved up against me.

“I don’t wanna leave in two days. I want to stay here in Argentina forever.”, she said. “Everything so beautiful here.”,

‘We’ll come back again, I promise.”, I told her and kissed her forehead.

She crawled onto my lap, her legs on each side of me. She wrapped her arms around my neck, “Is it me, or is it this impossible to be this happy? I have friends, family, and a amazing boyfriend. I’m a lucky girl.”,

“I’m a lucky guy to have you.”, I told her and she blush as a small smile formed her lips.

She leaned down and kissed me, “I love you.”,

I smiled and rank my hands in her hair, “I love you more, Makenna.”,
