Chapter .3.
It took them a week to get to La Push. They had to stop a lot because of the kids. They had followed the signs all to La Push, First Beach.
"It's pretty", Gwen says to her mother Ainslee
"It is. Let's get out and have some fun", Ainslee says stopping the car her brothers and sisters pull up too
"At least it is not raining", Floretta says Dominica in her arms breathing in the fresh air
The others had all gotten out of their cars and looking at the beach.
"I remember this beach. It was a life time ago", Ainslee says looking around vaguely recognising everything
"This looks like a good spot for a picnic. It is warm so let's eat this babies are hungry", Cayley says
They set out a big blanket and sit enjoying the sound of the waves. They hear another car pull up and turn to see a police car. Ainslee puts Rebeccanne down and walks over to the officer.
"Is there a problem?" Ainslee asks
"No. I haven't seen all you around here before. I am Chief Charlie Swan of the Forks police force", Chief Swan says
"We have come looking for our brother and father. Maybe you can help us", Ainslee says taking the photo out of her pocket
"What are their names? I know a lot of people around Forks and La Push", Chief Swan says offering his help
"Do you know a Thomas Lahote?" Ainslee says, "That's him in the photo from what the back says"
Charlie's eyes widen. These people could be looking for the Lahote's he knew. His daughter was marrying one.
"Don't you know for sure?" Charlie asks
"No. Our mother never told us we found this photo 3 weeks ago", Ainslee says
"What's your name Ma'am?" Charlie asks
"Ainslee Lahote sir. The others sitting on the blanket watching us our my brothers and sisters, nieces and nephews", Ainslee replies politely
"I think I know who your father is. Do you mind if I take this photo? And your number?" Charlie asks
"Yes you can take it. My mobile is xxxxxxxxxx", Ainslee says
"Where are you staying?" Charlie asks
"Probably in a hotel in Port Angeles. We don't expect to find our father or brother so soon. But if you know them we would be very grateful", Ainslee replies
"No problem. I do what I do for the community and my family. I will try and find them for you", Charlie says
"Thank you. If you find them. Tell them we are sorry if we cause him any pain. We will leave if that is what they want", Ainslee replies
"Will do. But I am sure they won't turn their back on all of you. Can I ask one more question?" Charlie asks
"Sure", Ainslee says
"Where is your mother?" Charlie asks
"In prison as of a week ago. I better get back to them. Thank you again Chief Swan", Ainslee says turning away
"Who was that?" Luanna asks
"Chief Charlie Swan. He might know are father. We might see him soon and Paul", Ainslee replies
"We can hope", Floretta says
Charlie drives thinking about who he just met. The woman seemed genuine. He drives back to his and Sue's house.
"What's the matter?" Sue asks
"I think you better call everyone. I met someone that I am pretty sure Thomas and Paul need to know about. Maybe the whole pack", Charlie says
"I will call them all over", Sue says going to the phone
Billy comes with Jacob, Sam and Emily, Embry and Rachael, Quil and Claire, Old Quil, Seth, Leah, Brady, Colin, Jared, Paul and Bella and Thomas.
"What's going on?" Billy asks as they all are settled
"Does this photo mean anything to you Thomas?" Charlie asks handing over the photo he had got
Thomas gasps at the worn photo. One of happier days.
"Who are those kids Dad?" Paul asks looking at the photo
"That is you", Thomas says pointing at a younger Paul
"What about the others?" Paul asks
"How did you get this?" Thomas asks Charlie ignoring his sons question
"I saw these cars parked at First Beach that I haven't seen before. I got out and a woman met me. I introduced myself and asked if there was anything I could help her. She said she had come to find her Father and Brother. This photo was the only clue she had with your names on it. I said I might know them. She let me have the photo and I bought it here", Charlie explains
"What did she look like?" Thomas asks
"She looked Quileute if that is what you are asking", Charlie says
"Did you get a name?" Thomas asks still staring at the photo
"Ainslee is her name", Charlie says
"My baby girl", Thomas whisperers a tear falls out of his eye
"Dad what's going on?" Paul asks shocked at his father's reaction to the name
"Everyone and especially you Paul I have been keeping a secret from everyone", Thomas says
"What secret?" Paul asks looking angry but Bella puts a hand on his shoulder which calms him down
"A secret that is very painful. Paul your mother left when you were 3. You blocked out her leaving and the leaving of her taking your siblings with her", Thomas reveals
Everyone gasps. Paul looks shocked.
"I have siblings?" Paul asks Bella holding his hand tight
"Yes. To be truthful you were born into Nontuplets. All girls but you. You also had a 3-year-older sister and three younger siblings. You all were so perfect. Your mother took them all away but you. I tried to find them but had no luck. The truth is your mother was tough to deal with that's why you don't remember", Thomas answers
Paul and everyone looks shocked at the information.
"How do we know these people are your children?" Sam asks Thomas
"This picture is the only proof we have. I want to see them. I will know them when I see them. I just know. If its them I thank the spirits for bring them here", Thomas says
"After all these years why didn't you tell me?" Paul yells angrily
"As I said it was painful to remember. I never thought their mother would let them see us again", Thomas says truthfully
"So that's the part of me that is missing?" Paul asks feeling dizzy as Bella pulls him back to the couch
"Yes. I am sorry", Thomas says
"We could have helped you if we had known", Billy says
"You were busy with your own families. My family drama was at the time none of your business. I wish I could go back and time and have them live here with us. But I can't", Thomas replies
"Ainslee said to tell you if I found you that they are sorry if they are bring you pain and will leave if that's what you want", Charlie says
"I need to see them", Thomas says, "I have missed 17 years of their lives. I need to see them"
"I have her mobile number. I will call her and give her directions here. But are you sure? Are you sure you want to see them?" Charlie asks
"Yes. But Paul do you want to meet them?" Thomas asks
"I guess. But I am used to being alone. It will take some time to get used to having siblings if they turn out to be", Paul says
"You won't have to go through it alone", Bella says to him kissing him
"That's why I love you", Paul says kissing her back
"I will call her now then", Charlie says going outside with the phone
"Paul we are behind you. We are a pack", Sam says to his pack brother
"Thank you Sam", Paul says
"I thought my life was crazy", Embry comments which his imprint Rachael hits him on the back of the head
"Dad am I the eldest?" Paul asks
"No. You have an older sister. She doted on you. She loved you so much. I can still hear her screams for me and you when I go to sleep", Thomas replies looking haunted
They could all see the guilt in his eyes and the pain.
"They will be here soon. I can her directions", Charlie says quietly
"Thank you. How will I face her? I didn't find her. I watched as she screamed for me", Thomas says brokenly
"She must love you to come here", Sue says gently
"We will see", Thomas says
"What was she like?" Paul asks after a minute
"She had a smile that was as bright as the sun. Her laughter was a joy to hear. She loved the beach. When you and your siblings where born she doted on you. Never doubt that she loved you. Your sister adored you", Thomas says to Paul
"She would remember won't she? Why didn't she come back?" Paul asks
"I haven't got the answers you will have to ask her when she gets here", Thomas replies
"I wonder how many siblings you have", Quil says
"It is strange to know I have siblings other you pack brothers and sister", Paul says hugging Bella tight and taking in her calming scent
"What are we going to do about the wolf secret?" Seth asks
"We can't tell them", Billy says
"Guys cars are pulling up", Leah says
They all hear cars pull up outside. Car doors slam.
"Mummy where are we?" an angelic voice asks
"At a friends house", another angelic voice replies
Charlie goes to the door and opens it.
"Welcome. Everyone is here. They are kind of a package deal", Charlie says to the person at the door
"Ok", a woman says
"Follow me", Charlie says
17 woman come in and 4 males. Toddlers clang to the strollers or hiding behind legs. Some had babies in their arms. One woman lead them in she was definably Quileute. She had long black hair and brown eyes that looked older then she was. Thomas knew in his heart who she was. He knew her without asking. The woman looks around and her eyes land on Thomas.
"Dad?" the woman asks
"Lee?" Thomas asks getting up from his seat
'Lee' takes her hands of the pram she was pushing and walk towards him.
"I have missed you"
"Come here baby girl", Thomas says hugs the woman tightly both cry tears of happiness
"What about us?" another woman says
"I think we will need to introduce ourselves", the woman says pulling back from Thomas
"You're warm", Thomas says
"Yeah", the woman laughs uncomfortably
The wolves look at each other the woman was warm but that could mean anything.
"Well this is your brother Paul and his fiancée Isabella Swan", Thomas says motioning to Paul who had frozen
The woman looked so much like him even 3 years older.
"Are you sure it is them?" Billy asks
"I am. I know my own children anywhere", Thomas says firmly
"Maybe we should introduce ourselves", the woman suggests gently not wanting to push
"We would like that. You all can sit on the couch. We will bring in some chairs", Sue says shooing the boys off the couch
"Thank you Ma'am", the woman says sitting down at the end of the couch a pram at the side and pulling a little girl onto her lap
Another woman sides on the other side of the couch pram next to her. A woman sits in the middle with a baby in her arms. A woman sits in a chair next to her pram, another woman sits on a chair with a baby in her arms and another woman sits on a chair pram next to her. The rest take seats around them.
"I am Sue Clearwater-Swan", Sue says
"I am Billy Black Tribal Chief", Billy says
"I am called Old Quil", Old Quil says quietly
"I am Sam Uley. I am 24", Sam says
"I am Emily Uley his wife. I am 24 also", Emily says
"I am Jared Cameron. I am 20", Jared says staring into one of the woman's eyes she returns the look
Sam coughs for Jacob to continue seeing that Jared had just imprinted.
"I am Jacob Black. I am 18", Jacob says
"I am Embry Call. I am 18", Embry says
"I am Rachael Black. I am 20", Rachael says
"I am Quil Ateara. I am 18", Quil says
"I am Leah Clearwater. I am 24", Leah says looking at one of the males
The elders realise she had just imprinted too
"I am Seth Clearwater. I am 16", Seth says looking into a females eyes.
Seth had just imprinted too. The elders realised they would be part of the pack.
"I am Claire Young. I am 17", Claire says
"I am Brady Fuller. I am 14", Brady says
Brady had just imprinted too.
"I am Collin Littlesea. I am 14 too", Collin says
"I am Isabella Swan, please call me Bella, I am 19", Bella says
"I am Paul Lahote. I am also 19", Paul says looking at his siblings they looked so much like him
"You have grown well Paul", the woman who spoke before says
"Can you introduce yourselves?" Sue asks
"Oh sorry for not doing that first. I am Ainslee Sarah Lahote. I am 22. Feel free to call me Lee or Ain. I don't mind which", Ainslee says
"I am Eleamoda Rosalynn Lahote. I am 19. You can call me Moda or Elea if you want", Eleamoda says

"What about these little ones? They are your brothers and sisters as well?" Sue asks
"No they are our children", Ainslee replies, "Mine, Alyx, Eleamoda, Floretta, Hannele, Bathsheba, Cayley, Genesis and Quintella"
"How you're only young?" Thomas asks shocked he was a grandfather
"Rape", they say the one word together
The wolves growl. Sue, Emily, Rachael gasp.
"Your mother let that happen? Or was it something out of your control?" Thomas asks
"Our mother let it happen. She helped", Alyx says eyes stormy
"Did nothing to stop her boy toys from rapping us. Ainslee took most of it though to protect us", Floretta says
"I should have looked harder for you", Thomas says sadly
"You couldn't of found us. I now remember what happened she took us to a crooked lawyer who made fake Identity's. They were good you would never been able to find us. We stayed in a small town so no one watch the news or anything. When we got older and our looks changed we moved. That's when everything really started", Ainslee says
"What to tell us the full story?" Sue asks gently
"Not quite yet", Cayley says
"Someday", Ainslee promises
The wolf pack and others could tell it was a painful story. They hoped that they would trust them enough to tell them. Thomas looks at his children their eyes wise beyond their years. They had children. He was a Grandfather. Now he wanted to know all about them. Maybe it was time to start that conversation…
