Claire's POV
Day turned to weeks and weeks turned to months. Everyone was happy. There were no vamp attacks and no Connor. Emma quickly became part of the family. She loved everyone and they loved them. We bought her a booster seat for the table and tons of toys and clothes. She moved into Eve's old room and we decorated it to her liking. Sadly everything couldn't stay so perfect.
Normally Shane would watch Emma while Michael and Eve were at work and I with Myrnin. Today was different though. I had to bring Emma to the lab with me because Shane had another job interview. Myrnin and Emma had never met before and sadly today was one of his manic ones.
I walked into the lab with Emma on my hip. Myrnin was running around destroying the place searching for something. I placed Emma on the stairs with her little guitar Michael gave her and went to work. I spent hours putting things back into place. It was going to get dark soon so I began to gather my things. I abruptly stopped when I heard a scream. Myrnin was leaning over Emma with his fangs down. I growled and ran with a broken chair leg at Myrnin. I staked him in the stomach momentarily stopping him. Grabbing Emma and our stuff I ran to the fastest way out, the portal. I got a mental image of the glass house and stepped through when it was ready. Quickly I blocked Myrnin from coming.
Everyone was already home and came once they heard Emma's screams.
Shane's POV
I ran into the living room flanked by Michael and Eve. Upon entering I saw Claire red face and trying to catch her breath while Emma was screaming and crying like mad. I ran over and picked up my baby girl.
Sobbing she said, "Dada, momma's scary boss tried to bit me." My blood ran like fire through my veins. Adrenaline rushed through me. He. Was. Dead.
Emma buried her head into my chest and for once I didn't rush off to do something stupid. I stayed where I was needed most by my baby and her mommy. "I won't let anyone hurt you, sweetie, I promise," I whispered to Emma while walking to the couch. She cried a little while longer then her sobs turned to hiccups. She turned her face way from my chest and spoke. "Unkie Michael, can you teach me how to play Lost it all (A/n the one by black veil brides) on my guitar."
We all started laughing at her short attention span.
Emma's POV
"Also I hungry," they laughed even more. This was no laughing matter! I'm starving here shouldn't they understand? I gave them a hard glare and finally Auntie Eve announced dinner is ready. I ran to my booster seat and Unkie picked me up and strapped me in. I started shoving daddy's chili in my mouth. I finished my first bowl before daddy was on his second one. Everyone stared at me wide eyed while I just burped. I giggled and grabbed the crayons I had stuffed in my shorts. I drew on my legs while everyone finished eating.
Once they were all done momma went to do dished while I played hide and seek with everyone. I was hiding in the hall closet when the doorbell rang. Since I heard nobody come I guessed they were still up stairs where I had my walkie talkie I had planted. I came out and answered the door. It was not-daddy. He tried to grab me so I screamed. Unkie Michael was there in a flash soon followed by everyone else. They saw me in not-daddy's arms while struggling and helped. Unkie Michael grabbed me and passed me to Auntie Eve. I was crying because not-daddy had hit me as soon as he saw me. I whimpered because my arm hurt from being hit.
"Give me Emma back she's mine not yours Claire!"
"You never gave a damn about her. She told us you hit her and she still sometimes has nightmares. She isn't yours Connor. You've never been anything but an abusive jerk to her. We all love her and she has a real family here. Shane is her father not you now get the hell off are property!" Momma yelled then slammed the door.
Auntie Eve took me back to the living room. Everyone squished together on the couch and took turns holding me while not-daddy banged on the door trying to get to me. I was really scared. He can't take me from momma and daddy and unkie Michael and auntie Eve. I love them not him. I hadn't told them about auntie Lyssa but she can have her baby soon. I unburied my head from momma's chest and sat up. I looked at daddy and said, "Auntie Alyssa is gonna have her baby soon." Everyone's mouths popped open. They looked funny.
"That bastard got my sister pregnant!" daddy shouted.
"Language," Momma yelled. "We can talk about this after Emma goes to sleep." Long story short that's how I got carried to my black and purple room and tucked into bed. After the events today I fell right asleep.
