Alpha Daddy
Chapter 24

"She's with Caleb." I mumbled closing the microwave. "What the hell is she doing with him!" He hissed jumping off the counter with a big thud. "He's her dad." I gupled staring at the neon green numbers.

"Aria-please not tonight." I whispered shutting my eyes. I heard him sigh before he wrapped his arms around me.

"Will I ever be able to fight the mate bond?" I mumbled into his chest. "Ill help you." He assured me hugging me tighter.

"Mommy! Jake! Come on!" Joey yelled from the livingroom. We laughed and pulled away.

"You go start the movie. Ilk fix the popcorn." I smiled as the microwave beeped. He nodded and softly pressed his lips to my forehead and ran to start the movie.

I shook my head and pulled out a bowl for the popcorn. After I fixed the popcorn I sat next to Joey with Jacob by my side. "Thank you for coming." I whispered as I laid my head against his chest.

"I missed you." He mumbled laying his head on top of my head. I smiled in content and glanced at a knocked out Joey before falling asleep myself.

'10:00pm' was brightly lit as I stumbled over a sleeping Jake, to the door which had someone obnoxiously knocking on it. I rubbed mt eyes as I flipped the light on for the front porch and glanced through the peephole to see Caleb holding a sleeping Zoey.

"Hey." I smiled opening the door. My heart thumping at the sight of him. He was practically oozing with happiness which made me feel ... satisfied. "Hey, can I put her down?" He chuckled. I blushed realizing I had been staring at him like a stalker.

"Right. Yeah. Come in." I blushed fixing my top which was awkwardly twisted. He nodded and walked in only to pause halfway to the hall. I frowned and looked around him. I froze as I saw him take in Joey cuddled up to Jake.

"He-he came for m-movie night." I stuttered ushering him into Zoe's room. He gently laid her down before roughly grabbing ahold of my wrist making me wince in pain.

"Which is your room." He growled staring at the four other doors. I slowly pointed to the last door in the hall as he roughly yanked me to my room.

As soon as we walked inside he pushed me in and shut the door. My chin quivered as I rubbed my wrist. It was already turning a hideous purple, which I hope would be gone before the twins or Jake noticed. "Why-why the hell is that ... that why is he holding MY son like he's his!" He shouted in a whisper.

I cringed and backed away from him as he stepped closer. "He missed Jake." I whispered too scared I would burst out in tears as betrayal and anger flashed in his cold blue eyes.

"It's your fault. You ordered him to stay away. You never thought how it would affect the kids." I growled remembering how he ordered Jake to stay away from

me.

He had no right to have a say who I spent my time with. He was engaged, and not to me. As heartbreaking as that was.

"He shouldn't be spending time with MY family! You guys are mine!" He growled stepping closer. I let out a low threatening growl warning him to stay away, which he responded with one of his own that made me shiver in delight.

This mate attraction will be the end of me.

"Don't forget I'm your alpha." His wolves voice said threateningly. "YOU don't forget I'm your equal. I'm your mate." My wolf responded protecting me from the fury of her mate.

"Submit Rosette." He growled calling my wolf by her name-my middle name. "You know I won't do that Antoni. I won't submit to someone who has hurt us repeatedly. You don't deserve us." She hissed stepping forward making him wince.

"We never ment to." He sighed his dark blue eyes slowly going back to his ice blue eyes. Meaning Caleb was coming through-just as I was.

"Before you go - if you ever lay a hand on us again. We will tear you to pieces." She said nonchalantly but the threat was as clear as day.

As much as it hurt her to threaten the love of her-our- life. We had two lives that we needed to be strong for. And she would never let someone push her around. Not after everything we went through.

"I did that." I snapped back into reality as I felt him grab my arm and trace the now yellowing finger prints. I gasped as I felt the familiar shocks run up my arm that he held.

"I think you should go." I said pulling my arm away from me. He frowned and stepped forward as I backed away. Now that my wolf was drowning in sadness I had to admit I was a bit afraid of him.

When Caleb was mad- he was a blood thirsty animal. He nodded and turned opening the door. As we walked to the front door he paused and pulled me into a suprise embrace. "Please don't be afraid of me love." And with that he was gone.

I slowly shut the door and bit my bottom lip drawing blood. "Ariana." I smiled at a sleepy Jake and tole him to go back to sleep. Which he immediately did. After that I checked on Zoey. Her hair was up in a pretty bun and she had a new set of Ariel pj's. I gently laid a kiss on her forehead before turning on her night light and shutting her lights off.
