Chapter 89
I sat close to the campfire and stretched my hands out to the flames. Ash was busy putting up the huge tent. It looked like a hut, completely on the extreme side of a normal camping tent.
I moved closer to the fire. I was wrapped up like a kesedia but I was still freezing! But Ash was walking around in a T-shirt like it was the middle of summer. “You are making me jealous.”
“How so?” he asked me, lifting two huge logs and placing them at the sides of the tent.
“I’m freezing my ass off while you have a natural heating system. I bet you can’t feel how cold it is.”
He turned to me and gave me a smile, “No. I can’t,” he spoke lifting two more logs and taking them to the other two sides of the tent.
“You don’t have to gloat you know?”
He chuckled, “I’m not! Okay how about we share my heat?”
I rolled my eyes, “How charitable

The next morning we strolled back to the house, enjoying our quiet white surroundings before we went back to our complicated lives. I wanted to stay a day or two longer especially after the wonderful surprise but I’d missed my kids and Ash also wanted to see them. My memories of the past few days of them weren’t enough. He wanted to stop being a secondary spectator and actually be there when they did something silly and memorable.I had one more treasured memory. And it was better than the first time we made love.We were barely out of the thicket before Billy appeared in front of us, bringing with him a very cold breeze that chilled me to the bone.Ash put his arms around me, “What do you want Billy.”He pointed at me, “Her.”“Why?”He walked- no, more like stomped- away. We had no choice but to follow him and finally see what I’d done wrong this time. Billy stopped a few times to

“Because I know Ash... and I’ll also be there. Give me a minute.” I rushed to our room and placed Meri next to AJ then I rushed back out and joined the other humans on the steps.Josh rushed in and back out with a bowl of popcorn. I stared at him confused. He shrugged his shoulders, “Hey, if it’s going to be a show better than the Royal Rumble I need popcorn.”Ann laughed, “You sure can pick them Lee.”“Okay Ben, are you ready?” Ash asked loosening up his body like a boxer would before a fight. Ben gave me a long look and I could feel his fear. “She’s not going to help you Ben,” he taunted, crouching down and holding his arms out, silver slowly sipping into his eyes.“Don’t worry Ben, he’s exhausted.” I yelled out.Ash laughed. “Actually, after last night I feel rejuvenated.”“What happened last night?” Josh asked.

I sat on the bed watching my happy babies wondering if Ben was alright. My eyes rested on AJ and it took everything in me to keep from crying. How did Ash’s mother survive all six initiations? The thought of it was driving me crazy. When and if that day came, I’d surely die from the anxiety.AJ grabbed my thumb and chewed on it, rubbing it against his bare gums. “I wonder if daddy will put you through the same thing.”He whined. He pulled my thumb out of his mouth and began kicking and waving his tiny hands around as his face creased in discomfort. “Are you wet again or hungry?”I checked his diaper. He was dry, “You eat like your father.”I looked at my watch. It had only been a half an hour they’d probably take another hour or two to rip Ben apart. I shook my head trying to clear the image of Ben’s head meeting the white ground in a bloody kiss.“Okay. Let’s just do something

“No way Ash.” the tremble in my voice was in sync with my thudding heart. “It would be an easy win. More than what I had.” I got off the bed and moved around the room like I had ants crawling all over me. “I don’t like the way you said that.” He turned his attention back to AJ, “Like what?” “Like you are going to make it as hard for him as it was for the human you.” “And?” And? “What if he can’t do it, are you going to make him?” He growled angrily, “My son will not be referred to as a Canl waka! He doesn’t come from a line of cowards!” “Ash, don’t do this to me. I’m not your mother. I won’t survive it! AJ is the only son we have.” I begged. Hell, Kiyo can roll in his grave if he wanted to. My son was staying alive! He went silent. I felt a little relieved he was considering it. I hope. “Lee, why is he in so much discomfort?” I stopped moving around to look at him. The kid was close to t

Maria walked past Joe with a bowl of water in her hands, bumping him in the process. “Training! It looked like you guys were taking turns trying to kill him!” She pulled Ben down on the couch, “take off your shirt!” She ordered.Ben looked at me, a hint of fear in his eyes. I didn’t dare say a word. When Maria was furious it was best to stay out of her way and just let her cool off on her own. She grabbed his shirt and pulled it over his head. Ben hissed when she grazed an open wound. “They took turns beating you up like you were some sort of piñata! Lee, help me.”I rushed to his other side and took the towel she handed me. “And then they use you like bait! What if they’d crushed you? Like you don’t have enough scars.”My eyes popped. If she spoke about the bruises... “Maria I’m fine and it was necessary if the plan was to work.”She stopped torturing Ben wit

The ride into town was a little quiet, except for the noises that came from Ben’s one-man act show for Meri. He was getting very attached to her. I didn’t mind it. The twins would have someone of their kind to explain things that Ash and I couldn’t. That is, if Ash let him hang around for that long.Josh volunteered to drive and he did so in silence. I figured it was because I was the one seated next to him. If I had a choice I would have sat behind and enjoyed Ben’s show with Meri, but Maria insisted on it because of my bad back.He looked at me a few times like he wanted to say something, and then his face would harden and he’d look straight ahead. I didn’t know what to do or say. His comment in the house had made things a little awkward. He couldn’t possibly still have feelings for me! There was nothing I could offer him, and nothing I wanted from him except his friendship. I had Ash for everything else.“Josh s

I placed my hand over the scar on my chest. It was the only one that was most visible. I always thought it was from a broken rib and not Joe’s attempt to keep me alive. I understood Ash’s anger and Joe’s fears. Why would he want to go through that again? But yet again, I couldn’t be a hypocrite about it. Looking at my kids, I understand why she’d want to risk it.“Do you intend on spending forever with Joe?”“Yes. I hope so, until the day I die from old age.” She joked.Ann chuckled, “You grow old, and Joe stays young? That’s never going to work.”“Which brings me to my next question,” I turned her to completely face me, “What’s your stand on turning?”Maria looked at me wide eyed, “How is that going to solve my predicament?”“You can have kids as a werewolf, this way there are no risks.”“Is this a joke?

We got home a lot happier than we left. Ben had managed to get a few phone numbers and Josh had gone straight home from the mall. It was getting easier not having him around while he was still stuck in his rut. I wasn’t trying to be cold or selfish, I just didn’t have the energy to deal with his drama.Ash had finally found Baku, and bringing Josh into the equation again was just going to create some unnecessary tension.Billy and Joe laughed at Ben’s expense when he told them about his hunting expedition. They too couldn’t believe that he’d managed to stay a virgin through his teen years with his hyper intense hormones. But Ben didn’t let them get him down. He’d accomplished hitting on women, successfully, and he was proud of himself.I was proud of him! Ten phone numbers in two hours. I must admit, women may be suckers for babies, but Ben had a few things going for him. He was easy on the eyes, he had this cute naivety
