Broken but still Alive novel Chapter 89

Book2 Chapter41

Your telling me that the man who kidnapped Lena who we thought was our grandfather was really our real

grandfathers best friend who turned evil?*

“Yup.”

“So the slave is our actual grandfather?”

“Yup‘

“And the fake evil grandfather is really gone?”

“Yup‘

“Well I think it’s time for me to go Luca stated pushing to his feet.

I smiled fainlty at him as he leaned down to kiss Valentina then Ambria’s forehead. The two had really gotten attached

to Ambria and I could tell she’d gotten attached to them too. I found it odd how Simon was so calm when Ambria would

cry for Valentina or my uncle. He seemed to be distancing him self from her and that scared me.

I was also concerned about Ambria’s parents. Didn’t they want to see their baby? My uncle could handle being away

from his little mate long enough for her to see her family.

But I never saw Simon on the phone and he had grown quiet over the last few days.

Blaze and Ambria had become great friends and it was rare to see them in separate rooms.

Blaze sat on my lap now his eyes furrowed in concentration as he played angry birds on Shadow’s phone. I couldn’t play

the game myself seeing as I got frustrated easily with it and would end up throwing the phone.

Seven and Leo were up in their room their little baby boy Andrew was wrapped up safe in their arms. Seven had

mellowed out slightly now that little Andrew was here but she was still her wild self.

Valentina helped her alot along with the other pack females who completely adored the little boy.

I have never seen my brother so soft. But when was with his son he was a completely different person. He wasn’t the

silent guy but the dotting father.

When I saw Leo with his son I thought to how Shadow treated Blaze.

Though Shadow obviously loved his son he wasn’t….Involved in his life enough I guess. I mean how could Shadow be so

blind to not see the abuse Amber had been giving Blaze. How could Shadow not know about Blaze’s nightmares or how

he was allergic to peanuts.

I nearly had a heart attack when I walked into the kitchen to see Shadow handing Blaze a peanut–butter sandwich.

Shadow had looked so ashamed and confused. He walked out the kitchen without another word and I didn’t see him till

we went to bed.

Shadow didn’t take me out on a date that night. That morning we got into a argument and I finally made him see that

he had to get help now. For him self, for Blaze, for me, and for his pack.

Grudgingly he went to counseling twice a week. He was really trying and I felt hope rise in me. He rarely had any

nightmares any more and if he did I was there to calm him down. Or well you know distract him.

I yelped startled as Shadow suddenly picked me up around the waist and threw me over his shoulder.

“Blaze time for bed‘ Shadow said as if I wasn’t hanging off his shoulder.

“But I just beat level 10” he whined.

“Blaze bed” I said slightly muffled.

I heard Blaze’s angry huff followed by his little feet running up the stairs to his room.

Ambria had fallen asleep a couple minutes ago and was cuddled in my uncle’s arms. Simon was watching them with a

odd look on his face but it wasn’t the usual angry expression.

“Good night Valentina, Simon” Shadow said as he walked out the living room and to the stairs with me still placed on his

shoulder.

When we reached our room I yelped as he ungracefully slung me on the bed and crawled over me. I laughed lightly and

wrapped my arms around his neck.

He leaned down and laid his forehead against mine. “Go out with me tomorrow?” He whispered.

I bite my lip and looked away. “Well I would love too but….”

He pulled back looking disappointed.

‘I have a very handsome mate and I wouldn’t want to make him jealous‘ I finished.

His eyes snapped back to me a grin on his lip. “Oh really?” He smirked.

I nodded.

“Yeah he can be a real jerk at times but I still love him‘

Shadow suddenly pulled away a dark look on his face. He sat up and stared at his hands. I pushed up and touched his

shoulder suddenly feeling guilty for my comment.

‘Shadow I was just teasing” I whispered.

“But I am a jerk to you at times and I shouldn’t be. I should be the mate you want. I should be the mate who dons’t

make you cry or feel like you have to watch you words. I shouldn’t be the guy who almost kills his son because he’s to

stupid to remember that he’s allergic to peanuts.”

“Hey, hey look at me” I whispered grabbing his face.

He opened his eyes slowly his gaze eyes filled with dark emotions.

He scoffed and pulled away from me.

“Look at me Lena! I’m pathetic and weak! I’m sitting here crying like a baby while your the tough one. I should be the

one taking care of you not the other way around. I don’t treat you the way I should and god do I want to Lena.”

He suddenly pushed me down on the bed and slammed his lips against mine in a hard kiss.

“I want to take you on dates you’ll always remember. I want to shower you with gifts and sparkly things. I—I want to

make you happy Lena. I want you to never leave me again. I love you Lena and I always end up screwing things up with

you. He whispered
