*** William P.O.V ***
 
As we entered Father’s pack land, I began to reminisce about my childhood. I used to spend a lot of time here at the mansion. There were a lot of relatives living there then that I didn’t even feel bothered about even if I didn’t see my parents for weeks.
 
  There were a lot of aunties taking of us the little ones. There were a lot of uncles that were rarely at home then just like my mother and father.
 
  There were also lots of cousins that I could play with so I never felt lonely or anything. I thought of Alan and Jace. I am pretty sure they must have been among my cousins that I used to play with when I was young but now I was not able to recognize them which is still baffling me.
 
   But back then, despite the lots of uncles, aunties and cousins I had, something still baffled me when I was little. Why did we just have one grandfather and one grandmother then?
 
  I remembered always looking at them confusedly when we were having a family dinner. I smiled at the thought and looked at my reflection in the mirror. I was just too young then to have realized that some of the uncles and aunties were actually my grandparent's children.
 
  I know what those old two tried to do by letting all their children and grandchildren stay in one house. They just wanted peace back then but now look at what has happened since they died.
 
  I also didn’t understand why my parents suddenly decided to separate me from our huge loving family. I had noticed uncles, aunties and some of my cousins leaving.
 
  It’s now that I am all grown up that I just understood them. None wanted to leave in peace anymore.
 
  Bridget winced when the car took a sharp turn. That sound snapped me to reality and I hurried to move closer to her. I wrapped my hands around her and asked, “What is wrong?”
 
  She covered her mouth like she was about to throw up. Cause of this, she couldn’t reply for a while until she felt better. She shook her head and looked up at me.
 
  I looked at her with a curious and worried expression. She smiled and told me gently,” I just felt a little carsick. It’s nothing and I am fine now. I have been feeling like this before we left. But I am fine now.”
 
  I nodded and just kept holding her tightly like that till we reached our destination. As our car inched closer to the mansion, the gates were already opened and I could see mother already waiting outside the doorstep of the hostel.
 
  When the car finally stopped and we got out, mother was hugging Jace tightly with tears streaming down her face.
 
  I sighed as I walked to the bag to collect our bags from the chauffeur. Mother is always so emotional. Any little thing can make her cry. Bridget stood beside me and stretched her hand to collect the little bag out of all the bags I was holding.
 
  I shook my head at her indicating ‘No’ and gave some of the bags to the chauffeur who already offered to help. As we walked to the doorstep where Liam, Daniella, Sienna and the twins were already standing, I saw the way mom’s face lit up when she saw Bridget.
 
  I walked inside to drop the bags and the chauffeur followed me. I turned around a little but smiled when I didn’t see Bridget. I knew that my mother will never let her escape like that.
 
  When I walked back a few minutes later, I saw Bridget beside mom. Mother was holding her hand tightly, patting her hair and obviously asking her some questions. I smiled, even though I can’t see Bridget’s expression now, I know she must be feeling frustrated.
 
  I almost froze when I heard Bridget laughing heartily. That sound…. When was the last time I heard that? As I walked toward them, I noticed the photo album in my mother’s hands.
 
  I immediately walked toward them looking completely horrified. The others laughed as I gasped. The mother actually showed Bridget those embarrassing pictures.
 
  Oh no… My reputation is all gone. Bridget looked up and noticed me. She carried an almost faded picture and showed me. I looked horrified. Even if the picture is almost fading, it is showing the way I displayed my naked butt for the camera.
 
  “He is so cute,” Bridget sighed as she caressed the butt part of the picture. “See his little butt looking so cute,” She continued. Others burst into laughter.
 
  “Oh! I have many more, especially the ones he was dancing naked with his female cousins,” Mother said as she searched the photo album. I immediately fell to my knees in front of mom and held her hand.
 
  “Mom! Mom, I’m sorry I didn’t introduce her to you earlier. Please stop embarrassing me like this. You said you threw the pictures away,” I cried out. I know Mom too well and I know she is doing this for revenge cause I didn’t introduce her or even inform her about her daughter-in-law.
 
  The room roared with laughter. Jake snickered and I glared at him. Wait till you get a mate and take her to your mom that has been nagging you to get one for like ages.
 
  “Amber, are you teasing him again? You never change, do you?” I turned around when I heard my father’s voice. Others stood up to greet him by bowing of course but I ran to him and complained, “Dad! Mom’s been showing Bridget pictures of my naked butts and other embarrassing pictures. Please get her to stop. I already apologized.”
 
   I was surprised when my father laughed and answered, “What is wrong? Those pictures are cute though.” I frowned as everyone laughed again. Just then the maid came in and informed us that the food is ready.
 
  That was when Alan who already had a grudge against me for disturbing his private time with Sienna started to complain, “Aunt, do you know what your son did? He didn’t even let us have breakfast. He even disturbed our sleep.”
