Chapter 9
I was sitting in the middle of the empty rental house. Instead of getting moved in, Paul, Brady, and Collin were on the reservation with Sam. When I left them earlier it was a screaming match and Paul was worried for me. He didn't want me to get hurt by one of the wolves accidentally. Not to mention Sam and Jared were spouting some bullshit about Rose and Jasper.
While I may have a hard time with their species in general, those two were my sisters bonded children and no one gets to say shit about them. That's about the time I left telling my three wolves to come over when they were done.
Bella, on the other hand, was at Charlies place in a screaming match with him. She didn't want me use any mind manipulation on him just so she could move out so she told him while I went to the rez to get the boys. Of course when I left them there, I went to get Bella. Instead I got Charlie screaming at me, telling me I wasn't going to take his daughter away. I barely saw Bella's nod that she was ok before Charlie was slamming the door in my face. Since she didn't look scared, I figured it would be best not to push right now.
From what I've seen since I've moved in, Bella did all the cooking, all the cleaning, all the laundry, she did everything, on top of going to school. Charlie would come home after work, sit on his ass, watch TV and wait for Bella to serve him dinner.
So right now, I'm sitting alone in my new rental house that is supposed to be a temporary place for my family until the dream house is built. Not so sure I want to stay in and around Forks after today, but even if we do leave, it'll be nice to have a place here if we ever want to come back.
"Where is everyone?" Emmett asked walking in with Rose and Jasper.
"Not here," I quipped before falling backwards to lay down in the empty living room. I craned my neck to see the three vampires staring at me, waiting for me to continue. "Paul, Brady, and Collin are on the Rez fighting with Sam and the pack. Paul's an Alpha in his own right now and Brady and Collin decided to choose Paul as their Alpha so now there's two packs and Sam is throwing a fit.
Bella is at Charlies fighting with him about moving out. When I stopped by it made it worse and when she indicated she was fine I left. I've been sitting here for about an hour now."
"Can't you just use the mind mojo you have?" Emmett suggested waving his hands around his head.
"If she would let me," I cracked a smile at his antics.
"So we just sit and wait?" Rose asked while gracefully collapsing beside me. Emmett plopped on her other side while Jasper went to my other side. None of us answered just sat there.
It was comfortable sitting with the three vampires which was not something I expected. For just a little while, they didn't have to pretend to be human. They could be as still as they wanted and as a Fairy it doesn't phase me.
I must have felt safe and comfortable with them as I found myself drifting off.
"What the fuck do you expect?" I growled out. We had been arguing all morning. I had sent my mate away because I didn't want any of the wolves phasing too close to her as tempers were running really high.
"I expect my pack to stay together!" Sam roared.
"Sam, Paul, calm down," Billy, the Chief of the tribe tried to interrupt. He and the other Elders had shown up about half an hour after Jasmine left.
"Well I am keeping my family together," I didn't even acknowledge the Elders. I had made sure to stay away from them just because I didn't want to hurt them. That's probably why it was somewhat easier to ignore them.
"You don't have a family," Sam sneered.
I thought that comment would piss me off, and in the past it would have, but now it made me want to hold my imprint, scared I'd never see her again. I have a family even if it's just her and I. What surprised me the most is in my hesitation Collin and Brady phased and flew at Sam.
"Brady, Collin," all three Elders, Billy, Harry, and Old Quil yelled, but it didn't do anything.
"Pups," I called out and they stopped but didn't back up. They were snarling at a still human Sam. Jared, Embry, and Jake were standing behind Sam backing him up. Seth had stayed close to the Elders. I wasn't sure if he didn't want to take a side or if he just wanted to protect his dad and the other Elders, but either way he was staying back.
"Sam, they made their choice," I moved to stand between the two wolves. "You forced me to become an Alpha when you made me choose between the Pack and my Mate. Why is it so bad that the pups want to follow me? Is it because you know I won't let you schedule their patrol at night and as often during school hours? They can patrol longer on the weekends and after school. You need to take into consideration personal lives for the wolves whose parent's aren't allowed to know."
"You don't get to tell me how to run my pack," Sam growled and took a step towards me but stopped when Brady and Collin growled and snarled, saliva dripping off their fangs.
"Fine, you can stay the fuck out of my pack," I snarled back before turning to the Elders. "Chief, Elders, I will be staying with my imprint in a house she is renting until the place she is building is completed. Brady and Collin are the bonded children to my imprint and will be staying with her as well. They will continue to attend the school on the reservation and you will need to run interference with their parents since you couldn't be bothered to do so when they first phased. If you don't you'll have my Mate to deal with and a pissed off mom who happens to be The Fairy Princess is not someone whose bad side you want to be on."
I waited a moment to get a nod of confirmation. "Brady, Collin, let's head to Jasmine's place." As we walked away I said one last thing to Sam, "Don't count on us for patrols when the only Vampires around are the Cullen's. You can call me if any nomads show up."
I didn't wait for his response, I just chucked off my shorts and phased. I could instantly hear Brady and Collin's chatter and just listened as we made our way to our new home.
"Dad, I'm moving in with Jasmine," I stated for what seemed like the millionth time. I've been arguing with him for three hours. He's stood in front of the door and refused to let me leave. When Jasmine showed up about an hour ago my dad pointed his gun at her. I'm glad she restrained herself but I know if I don't show up at her place here shortly she'll be back and I have no doubt she'll bring her wolves and quite possibly my vampires.
"No, I just got you back and you're leaving?"
"I'll still be around," I sighed. "I can swing over and have dinner once a week. I'm not moving out of town."
"No," he was glaring. "You are my daughter and you will stay here. Now you are grounded."
"I'm done arguing," I returned the glare and stared him down. "I will be moving in with Jasmine and I will be leaving now."
Instead of responding my dad moved aside to let me leave. I was stunned as he was fighting so hard before and now he's just letting me leave. I couldn't figure out what was happening so I left. I didn't know if he'd let me take any of my things but I figured I'd come back in a bit to see if I could at least get the things I brought with from Phoenix.
I drove to the rental and arrived at the same time Paul, Brady, and Collin cam strolling out of the woods.
"I'll tell you inside," Paul mumbled at my questioning look. I didn't realize earlier that he none of the wolves had been with Jasmine when she stopped by to get me.
The boys were gentlemen, held the door and let me enter first. I trusted they wouldn't do so if they had heard or sensed anything that could be dangerous for me. Granted what they didn't hear was more shocking than anything else we could have found.
I walked into the living room and stopped in the doorway. Of course the boys ran into me but they gasped at the sight as well.
On the floor was my sister sleeping surrounded by my vampires who looked like they were dead. All three of them had their eyes shut and were unnaturally still.
"Hi," Rose smiled at me. I assume she heard some noise come from me that alerted her to our presence. I quickly looked at Jasper and Emmett to see their eyes open and a smile on their face as well. Jasmine was still sleeping.
"I think she worried herself to sleep," Jasper said regarding my sister.
"So care to tell us what happened?" Emmett asked. He looked worried which wasn't something I was used to seeing. Normally he's all smiles and happy.
I sat against the wall facing them and explained all about Charlie. I told them how he demanded I stay, tried to guilt me into staying, how he blocked the door. I felt Jasper send out some calm and noticed that Rose was trying to resist his influence but it was slowly working on her.
"It was weird though," I sighed at the end of my story. "I finally just demanded he let me leave and he stepped aside. I honestly thought I'd have to sneak out just to move in here. I knew there wouldn't be any legal issues since I'm 18 but still I didn't want to sneak out. I wanted my dad to know and even if he wasn't happy about it he should have accepted it without so much fuss. Now I want to know why he changed his mind so suddenly."
"He didn't," someone said walking into the house. Instantly, my kids were standing protectively in front of me while the wolves surround Jasmine. The guy who walked in looked strangely familiar but I couldn't place him.
"Who the fuck are you?" Paul was growling.
"I'm her..."the stranger pointed to Jasmine but was interrupted.
"He's the pain in my ass," Jasmine said still laying on the floor, eyes closed, looking like she was still asleep.
"Love ya too," the guy smirked. That of course caused all three wolves to growl and start shaking.
"Down boys," the guy kept goading them.
"Knock it off, Robin," Jasmine sat up and glared.
"Don't call me that," the guy, Robin, whined.
"Well don't be a dick," Jasmine rolled her eyes before getting up and giving him a hug.
"So were you planning on telling me you finally found your mate?" I could barely hear the guy over the growls from the wolves. My vampires weren't growling but were still standing between me and Robin.
I walked in knowing Jasmine would sense me. We had grown up together and were as close as siblings. I'm glad she found her mate but as her pseudo big brother I get to give him the talk.
"Who the fuck are you?" The same guy as earlier growled. I assume he's her mate.
"I'm her brother," I smirked at the guy.
"This is Puck," my sister gave me a half smile. The one she always does when she doesn't know whether she loves me or is pissed at me.
"Wait you called him Robin earlier and now Puck," my sisters, sister was staring wide eyed. "As in Robin Goodfellow from Shakespeare's A MidSummer's Night Dream?"
"Please don't remind me," Jasmine groaned. "Damn Shakespeare had to go and immortalize this trickster. I swear if he wasn't my mother's son, my father would have ended him centuries ago."
"What?" The female vampire sounded as confused as the rest of the room looked.
"Jasmine and I share a mother. Shakespeare got a few things wrong, and that was one of them. While I am known as the trickster throughout Fae, I'm also the bastard prince. Oberon hates it but since the only other child of either him or Titania is Jasmine, he has no choice but to accept it. He never told anyone about Bella. Now there'll be a three way fight for the crown."
"I don't want it," Bella quickly argued. I laughed until Jasmine elbowed me.
"Don't worry B," Jasmine soothed. "He's being an ass, which is normal for him, but he doesn't want the crown either. The three way struggle is to see which of us lags behind and gets burdened with the crown, if our parents ever decide to step down."
"Ok, so I'm Puck, who are you?" I asked the room at large trying to redirect the conversation and gaining me another elbow in the gut.
"My mate, Paul," Jasmine pointed to the one who's been growling since I walked in. "And my bonded children, Collin and Brady."
"I'll be the cool Uncle and teach you how to pick up chicks," I winked at them causing me not to see the fist coming towards my face.
