Warren's point of view…
I shut the trunk Jace has his arms full of bags, and so do I as Lily and Eve walked into the house after their shopping trip. I was sad my baby girl was getting married in two years four weeks two days, five hours and eight minutes. Jace wasn't too happy either but he was trying to please his mother who was pissed at us both. I was happy she was marrying D'Artagnan he might be four years younger but he is Jace's best friend and the son of Layla and Dice. Jace was with Sparrow and Angelo's daughter Ying, she was stunning, I felt bad for Trace and Magentas daughter Snow as she was mated to Max Stronghold my nephew who I made sure wasn't like Will. I set her bags down with a pleading look on my face I didn't know she would get so upset over Jace getting a tattoo and a septum nose piercing or a bull nose piercing the kids call it. But I was wrong when he walked in she flipped and Eve just laughed at her brother getting yelled at I tried to back away from her anger but she tackled me and started punching me over and over while Jace made his escape leaving me with her.
"Lillian, please stop it's done he wanted it. You got Eve her belly pierced when she was 16," I said trying to make her see my point but her eyes narrowed in anger.
"I did, but tell me Warren, did I do it behind your back. We are supposed to agree on everything when it concerns the kids but you did it behind my back and he has a tattoo," she said and I was wrong Eve did ask me first and I agreed. She started pulling the food away as Jace and Eve helped her Eve was so like Lily it was insane. I was worried Lily was this pissed at me we can always work it out.
"Your right Lillian, I should have asked it was just something that happened. I didn't mean for it to upset you this much," I said and she just looked at me. "Jace do you plan on working in one of your father's auto shops after you finish school?" she asked and he looked at her with a smile.
"For a while I still want to join the air force," he said smiling and she smiled back at him. "Well than Jace love you will only have that thing hanging from your nose until than as they don't allow them in the Air Force," She smirked it was still a sore spot I wanted him to take over after I retired. He agreed when I was too old he would but he wanted to fly a jet for our country. And she was so happy for him and the fact he wouldn't be wearing his new bling for long. He was a good looking boy his hair long two different colors his face was more like Lillian's but his features are mine he was and is a mama's boy. Eve still looks like Lillian her hair long and curling around her slender frame, her dark eyes and hair are like mine. Eve was more of a mama's girl as Lillian spent more time with the kids as they grew up she is now a Teacher giving up her dream of being a doctor. She teaches defense at Sky high both our kids have had her as a teacher and Jace still does. She is in line to become Principal of Sky high and she was stoked she should know today, as Powers was leaving for retirement.
"Warren the kids are going on the camping trip with Trace and Magenta you need to get their tent and stuff ready I don't know what they will need, "Lillian said invading my thoughts with her sweet voice. "I will they leave in two days, everything they will need will be ready," I said and she nodded as she started cutting some peppers. I walked over wrapping my arms around her waist she was still 5'3' I was now 6'8' Jace was tall as Eve wasn't. I rested my chin on the top of her head; she had just got back from a mission with her group of heroines she was in Rome for three days. She came home to her only son full of holes and marked up, I felt bad because she was right we tried to always agree where our kids are concerned.
"I am sorry love," I said in her ear and she sighed "I know you are Warren," she said tossing the peppers into the oil in the pan she had waiting on the stove hearing the peppers sizzling made me hungry. Fast food for three days I missed her so much, it took her all day to clean the house and do laundry. Which I got punched for, she wasn't my slave and I know how to clean but I was busy at work.
"Jace cut the sausage please?" she asked Jace and he grabbed a knife twirling it between his fingers as he cut the sausage for his mother. Jace was strong like his grandfather but he also had my powers it made Lillian sad he didn't have hers. Evangeline was a leech she could absorb any power that was near her so she was like Lillian which caused Lillian to cry with happiness. Lillian like other heroine's could only have Jace we told Eve years ago that I was really her uncle and Lily adopted her when she was a week old. She didn't care she was so happy Lily loved her and has always been by her side, when she was a rude teen to a stunning women. To Eve we are mom and daddy she has a picture in her house she adores, it was taken on her fourth birthday she was dressed as a princess as her mother was dressed as a queen which she was, I stood in a tux with them both in my arms we had the very same picture in our room.
"Mama what do I do with them," Jace said as Lily looked over with a kind smile as she pointed to the pan. He did as she asked when the home rang and Eve jumped off the counter answering it.
"Hello, Peace manor Evangeline speaking," She was in college taking on her mother's dream. "Hey, D'Artagnan, let me ask first retard," she said and her mother raised her arched eyebrow.
"Can D'Artagnan come to dinner?" she asked and I gave a nod of yes. "Yeah you can bring Ying, Max and Snow," Eve hung up and looked at us.
"Jace cut more sausage, Eve give me a yellow, red and orange pepper," She said and she was slicing open three loafs of French bread. I grabbed the knife from her and the bowl of her garlic spread she makes for her garlic bread, she started dicing peppers as I spread on the garlic butter. Eve was setting the table dancing around the table at the same time.
"Warren, I wanted to talk to you about getting Jace a mustang since he got straight A's and he passed his test. And we did get Evangeline her Camaro when she turned 17," Lillian said I saw Jace's face light up he had his eye on a rebuilt mustang and I figured he asked her first. I was jealous at the bond they shared I always wanted to be closer to Jace but didn't know how. She was a master she was always there for Eve and Jace her nieces and nephews when her brother was hurt he almost died Lillian killed the man who did it.
"I don't see why not he deserves it we can go look at it tomorrow but call and set up a time," I said and Jace finished what his mother asked and then he was gone heading to the house phone.
"I love you," I said and she gave me a soft smile "Tonight you can show me how much you love me," she said her voice seductive and I fell for it every time no matter what she was asking for.
"Oh I will," I said my hand slipping up her top cupping her breast and she leaned her head back resting it on my chest. I moved my hand seeing Jace hang up the phone, he smiled at his mother as she touched his cheek.
"Well Jace, what did they say?" she asked "At ten," He said and she smiled "So dad are you coming to look at it too?" Jace asked and before I could answer Lillian did.
"Jace I have already looked at it so it will just be you and dad. He is the mechanic so I hope you boys can spend some time together," she said and Jace looked confused.
"Are you sure mom I don't want to leave you here alone," Jace said as Eve slapped the back of his head. "I will be here brother," she said and he smiled at her as Lillian put the bread into the oven as the kids ran off.
"So why aren't you going?" I asked her in a deep throaty tone, she smiled.
"You want to spend time with him well there you go," she said I sighed running my hand through my long hair "I am sorry I was just jealous he always wants to spend time with you and never me. I try and get him to come to the shop all the time," I said frustrated.
"Warren he isn't you, yes he likes working on cars and stuff but not like you. He likes bmx bikes and skateboarding I watch him all the time. You need to see what he likes not what you like and want him to like," she said and gave me a pointed look.
The doorbell rang as I went to get it Jace flew by me with Eve on his back. She opened the door seeing D'Artagnan, Snow, Max and Ying waiting to be let in.
"Come in why did you even ring the bell?" Jace said as they all walked in shutting the front doors. D'Artagnan grabbed Eve from Jace as Ying held Jace's hand walking into the dining room.
"Uncle Warren, mom said she is bringing her car in, it is making a noise," Max said with an exasperated tone his mother shouldn't have a stick as I have told her many times. "I will deal with her," I said he smiled and walked with Snow.
"Aunt Lily," Max said in a loud voice, as he entered the kitchen making sure she knew he was there. "Max my dear you look dashing, Snow are you deflating his ego?" she asked as Snow laughed.
We all sat down to dinner Lillian and the girls got their food first than us boys she always made more than enough. She ate slowly watching everyone eat and talk her smile was priceless.
"So dad said the trip will be awesome we are going out on the boat and everything," Snow said with a sly smile.
"It's going to be fun," Eve said she was going even though her other friends aren't going. "Are you sure mom that you don't want to go or I can stay with you," Jace asked and she smiled.
"Honey go have fun I don't think I will be hurt if you leave, in fact I assure your father would never allow such a thing," She said and Jace looked happy with her answer. He has always been protective of both girls now Snow and Ying fit into his life as well.
"Warren lets go sit out back while the kids clean the dishes," Lillian said as she got up from her seat I took her hands as the kids started clearing the table. If she cooked we or they cleaned half the time. I opened the door and she walked out she was still the most beautiful girl I have known Eve is tied with her even though Lily was 35 she looked 21. I was almost 40 and I looked 35 but I was muscular and I did beat some ass if they came to close to my mate. Our life is perfect and I have always been grateful she forgave me and she didn't break our bond like she planned.
I always thought Jace resented me for leaving her for a year making her a bit off she never fully recovered. Some people can't even tell she hasn't, but those who know her the most can see she has. But she calmed Jace and Eve telling them it was in the past and that's where it is going to stay. But Jace loved me and I loved him so much I tried to be a good father, and I was told by Lily I was.
"Stop thinking, Jace loves you, but you need to stop trying to make him into you," she said sitting on my lap as we looked into the clear night sky.
"You make it look and sound so easy but I will try," I said kissing her neck she moved letting me reach further near her ear.
"I love you Warren Peace," she said and I felt her love wrap around me it was pure bliss.
"Not more than I love you Lillian Stronghold Peace," I said as she kissed me.
Okay not a perfect ending but I wanted it simple and sweet, thank you again for all your support.
