Garrett POV 

"Are you ready to go baby doll?" I asked the beautiful woman who had captured my heart two years ago with just one look from her, making my whole world stop in an instant. 

"Not really, I don’t want to go back to reality when this weekend has been perfect. Also papa is probably going to give you a hard time because you were you know." She said and seemed sad and worried about Alpha Ethan. 

"It'll be ok, I knew this was going to happen so I'm prepared." 

"Hmm we'll see." She sassed and I chuckled. I've known them for years, I told Beta Kody she was my mate the day I turned sixteen two years ago so he knew I can be trusted with her but of course when Blade lost control and we hurt her, I wanted him to kill me because hurting her is a major regret I will have for the rest of my life. I'm just thankful she was able to heal me because I love her and wouldn't ever hurt her on purpose, never in a million years. Not like that dickhead Mikael. 

Now he is a low life piece of shit who goes out of his way to hurt Amilia and he and I went round and round a lot because of it. He is no match for me, not being a warrior and training to be a head warrior in a couple of years. 

The drive home was fun, Amilia sang along to the radio and her voice is so beautiful, like an angel that I could listen to every minute of the day. I can sing but not as well as her. 

"Ok let's get this over with." I said when I stopped in front of the Alpha house, Amilia's house. We got out of the truck and I grabbed her bag and we went inside.

"Daddy I'm home." Amilia called out and Beta Kody walked out of the kitchen drying his hands.

"Hey, did you have fun?" He asked as they hugged. 

"Yes, it was a good weekend away." She looked at me and smiled. 

"Yes, it was. Hello Beta Kody." I bowed my head slightly. 

"Hello Garrett. The Alpha is in his office down the hall, you know where it is." That I do, been there plenty of times discussing pack stuff. I nodded and made my way to the office and knocked on the door. 

"Come in." He said so I opened the door and bowed my head immediately. 

"Alpha Ethan." I greeted him. 

"Garrett, have a seat." I sat down in the chair in front of the desk and waited for him to speak. 

"How long have you known or felt you were going feral son?" He asked calmly.

"A few days, that's it. Amilia had planned on killing me but I planned on killing myself because I didn't want to be a danger to her or the pack so when she said Fierce could save me, she did it. I didn’t mean to hurt her Alpha Ethan. That is something I have to live with for the rest of my life even if she said she forgave me, it still doesn't take the guilt or shame I feel for my actions. I apologize for what I had done and will take whatever punishment you see fit." 

"I'm not going to punish you, you realized what was going on and I trust that you would have done what you said because Garrett, I know you. I've known you since you were a pup and you are a good man and you treat my daughter like the Princess she is. I'm glad you are better and healed but if you ever feel it happening again and you don't tell me right away, I won't hesitate to kill you myself, daughters mate or not." 

"Yes Alpha, I will. Thank you for understanding and not killing me when I walked in here."

"Well Kody had a lot to do with that. He told me to hear you out and to listen to you without getting mad because there isn't a point in jumping to conclusions and he of course was right, like usual. Did you have a good weekend?" Wow ok not going to ask what changed his tune.

"Yes, it was wonderful thank you." I said and he smiled. 

"Good, she deserved a good weekend away from the pack." 

"We both did." 

"Alright well go on, go home and relax, eat and rest because tomorrow you have five am patrol and training at seven."

"Yes Alpha. Have a good evening." I said and left the office to go find my baby doll. 

"Hey beautiful I should get home, I have an early morning and a long day. Will I see you out tomorrow when we're training?" 

"Hmm possibly, we'll see if I want to go out and train, I may just have to show you up." She smirked and Beta Kody chuckled.

"I actually look forward to that. I will see you later baby doll. I love you." I said and hugged her.

"I love you too sweetheart." She said and I leaned down and kissed her and had to control myself before I took her to her room right now. 

"Have a good night." Beta Kody said as he walked me to the door.

"You as well. See you in the morning." After that I went home.

"Mom, Dad, I'm home." I called out. 

"Oh Garrett, we were so worried about you. Are you hurt, sweetie?" My mom said checking me over.

"Mom I'm fine, I'm healed now. Please, stop." I begged my mom. I told them I was no longer feral… after I had to explain I was going feral. No one knew. 

"Why didn't you tell us Blade was going feral? Do you know how much hell you could have been put through with Alpha Ethan?" My mom asked, looking at me with unshed tears. 

"I'm sorry." I said biting my lip. 

"Don't let it happen again, son. We love and care about you." Dad said. Why couldn't my mom and dad have another kid? Their constant love and support is appreciated but suffocating. I have no room to breathe. 

"I promise I'll tell you guys when something is wrong." I said. 

"So how was your trip?" Dad asked. 

"It was ok, until Alpha Ethan and Amilia's other dad, Kody broke down the door of our hotel room just before we could go out on our date night." They nodded. 

"Sounds like Ethan alright. He may be our best friend and like a brother to us but no one mess with Amilia." Dad said. 

"That girl better still be a virgin, Garrett John Lockhart." My mother warned. 

"Are you calling me a manwhore?" I asked with fake hurt. 

"I mean it." She pointed the knife she was using to cut up some chicken. 

"I think she means it, Garrett." Dad said chuckling and I backed out of the kitchen slowly. 

"Garrett so help me… get back here!!!" I laughed as I barricaded my door listening to her pound on my door. God I love my mom but she's one crazy lady. 

A little while after the banging stopped, I got out of bed and removed my dresser from the door and looked both ways before sneaking to the bathroom. 

"Garrett..!" Fuck. 

"I swear she's still pure as far as I know, if it makes you feel better I told her we're mates." I said putting all my weight onto the door. 

"Aw, did you really?" My mom asked and slowly opened the door. 

I was looking at her and she was smiling sweetly. A little too sweetly. 

"Mom…?" I asked. 

"Ow, ow, ow." I flinched as she had my ear in an iron grip. 

"I thought you'd be happy...ow!" She sat me down around the kitchen bar. 

"Now you listen here, that girl is a sweet little angel and you may be my son but I won't let you get in the way of her dreams of being a lawyer. Do I make myself clear? She has worked too hard." I gulped and just nodded. 

"Good boy, would you like some pie?" She held out a blueberry pie. 

"Dad… mom's freaking me out again…" I called out. 

I looked everywhere for him. 

"Oh boy hush, it was your dad's turn to lead the patrol." I nodded and we just sat around watching tv waiting for dad to get back. 

When dad got home we ate dinner and just talked more about my weekend. 

"Don't forget five am patrol and training at seven, Garrett. You're lucky Kody saved your ass." Dad said. 

"I know dad, I messed up big time." 

"You did, but what matters is you're better. Now go get some sleep." Dad said and I did just that letting my eyes fall closed as I fell asleep thinking about my beautiful baby doll with a smile on my lips.
