Lux
When the alarm went off early in the morning, I couldn’t help but groan in distaste.
I hear Silas as he chuckles and pulls me closer to him, kissing my head before saying, “Good morning.”
The sparks between us seem to be stronger as I gasp from the tingles sparking between us. He intertwines our hands and murmurs, “This is incredible.”I nod slowly in agreement and Kodi starts to purr in my head, completely satisfied with the fact she’s mated and connected with Jax.I sigh, feeling contentment wash over me. He says, “Come on, we can sleep on the plane ride, we need to meet Mason.”
His statement makes me get out of bed, I almost forgot about Mason. I was a little too preoccupied with the events of last night that the purpose behind our trip slipped my mind.Once we finish getting dressed Silas takes my hand as we rush out of the hotel. I can’t help but smile from the bond I feel to him and I can’t help but b
SilasRelief floods through my veins now that the flight is finally over. After that first encounter, Mason wasn’t interested in talking anymore and spent most of the flight drinking.Lux never spoke during the flight, instead paying attention to her music and occasionally squeezing or rubbing my hand. As we get off the plane Mason says, “I have a car for us.”I look at him skeptically with one eyebrow raised and he rolls his eyes at me and says, “Chill, I’m not trying to hurt the princess or anything like that.”Lux murmurs, “He’s telling the truth. He has no ill intent.”I breathe out as I nod and after a few minutes a limo pulls up. We get inside with Mason, and he says, “Take us to the Lunar Café.”“Yes sir.” The driver responds.Before I can ask Mason says, “I called Marinette last night and asked her to meet us there
LuxIt’s weird being around Marinette. It feels unusually natural, almost like I’ve known her my entire life. I don’t know how else to describe it.Her baby, Marigold, fussed a little during the drive and I ask, “What made you pick her name?”“Oh, her biological father and I picked it out before he passed. If it was a girl, we want ‘Mari’ to be a part of her name because it’s kind of a tradition in my family. If it was a boy, he would’ve had an ‘A’ name just like the father.” Her voice sounds sad as she continues, “He wanted Marigold because he said that she would be more precious to him than gold.”“I’m sorry for your loss.”She takes a heavy breath and says, “It’s fine, it’s part of life unfortunately. He was a good man, an incredible boyfriend and fiancé… you know, Lux, you’re
Silas Lux’s face brightens after Marinette complimented her. Lux chuckles softly and says, “Well, I like you too.” Marinette giggles as she sits beside Mason and smiles at him. She looks at him for a moment before turning to look at us and her eyebrows knit together as she asks, “So, how did the three of you know each other anyway?” Mason looks over at me and Lux as he waits for one of us to explain. He doesn’t want Marinette to think that she’s just being used. I open my mouth to speak but Lux surprises me when she says, “Well, actually, we don't know Mason very well. We knew of him just like we knew of you. I was trying to find you, and this was before we knew you came out here at Canada and um, we met at a party. I knew the two of you were close and I asked if he could help us find you. He was hesitant, but I told him I would be looking for you regardless of if he helped and I thought you’d be more comfortable if he was here too.”M
LuxAs soon as the words left my mouth, I hear Marinette stand up. She tells Mason, “Come help me pack, Mace.”He sounds surprised as he asks, “Right now?”She says, “We need to do it now, if we don’t then Chase might find out about it.”My eyebrows furrow, why does it matter with Chase?Mason doesn’t question anymore and instead follows her out of the room. I ask Silas softly, “Why do you think she’s so hesitant about Chase?”Silas breathes out and says, “I don’t know, but it sounds like the two of them are upset with one another based off what that Lauren girl was saying.”I nod in agreement, and we sit quietly as we wait for Mason and Marinette to come back in the room. I hear the baby fuss softly and then Mason walks into the room. He sits down and asks Silas, “Is this the right way to hold a baby?”Silas c
LuxThis flight might be longer, but it felt like our shortest one.Marinette and Marigold were my priority. Marinette talked to me the entire flight, asking me questions about my life, and was absolutely fascinated by the things I’ve been through.Silas is quiet throughout the flight, but just like always he keeps his hand laced together with mine. A reminder of how he is always there for me, he is my one constant in this life.Meanwhile Mason and Elijah are deathly silent. They only speak when spoken to, at least Silas has chimed in here and there. Marinette gave plenty of opportunities for either of the men to speak, but neither one made a peep. There’s some kind of tension between the two of them that I don’t understand.It seemed like an eternity before the plane finally landed. And when it did it seemed like all of us were eager to get out of the flying contraption.My brother sent two c
KaiI was intrigued by the fact that Elijah, Beta of the North River Pack would want to speak with me.Normally Alpha’s requested my company, but Beta’s never said a word. What does he need?I’m surprised I haven’t heard from Alpha Chase yet considering that his Beta is here as well as Marinette Sinclair.When Elijah said he wanted to speak with me, I noticed that Marinette made a face. I tried not to react to it, but the tension between the two of them was obvious.Once I showed everyone to their rooms Genevieve sat down in the rocking chair holding Marigold and Marinette began to unpack. Genevieve asked me to get an older omega we have who we call Winnie. Her real name was Winifred, but everyone calls her grandma Winnie because she has such a sweet motherly vibe.We haven’t had a baby around here in a while and I know Marinette is going to love her and Grandma Winnie will enjoy h
LuxBy the time morning comes I feel refreshed. I didn’t realize how much better sleep I would get from being with Silas.I slip out of bed and listen out for his heavy breathing, and I know he’s still asleep. I walk to the shower and breathe out as my shoulder relax under the warm water. Right as I get started shampooing my hair, I get a mind link from Grandma Winnie and she says: Princess, it appears we have some new guests. Ms. Sinclair is not too happy, right now I have Marigold, but because Marinette is your guest, I thought you might want to check in on her.I respond back: Okay, be there soon.Thank you, princess.I rinse my hair out and rush out of the shower and to my closet so I can get dressed and go find out what’s going on. I mind link Kai as I leave my room to find out which guest rooms he put them in. Once he answers I close our link and focus on getting there as quickly as p
SilasWhen I woke up, I knew that Lux had been gone for a while.I got out of bed and quickly showered and got changed before going to find the others. I saw my brother and Charlotte from afar, but I pursed my lips before choosing to go the other way. I didn’t want to talk to them right now.I saw Calvin and Iris along with their new little bundle, but they both seemed exhausted, so I walked past their area without saying a word, so I didn’t disturb them.Then I found Kai in one of the main living areas along with Mason, Elijah, and another man. I walk in there and the first thing I noticed was that Mason and Elijah were sitting close beside each other and neither one seemed put off by the others presence.Maybe they were both just in a bad mood yesterday.The new man paced back and forth tugging at his hair in frustration. Kai sat in a chair watching the man, but he had a bored expression on his fa
