IF YOU'VE ALREADY VOTED, Don't try to vote again you can't. I really just wanted you all to have the chapter the way I HAD MEANT for it to be.

Chapter 37.5

Carla Ryan POV (Kieran’s mother)

For the first time in years I slept under the roof with all my children, in human form that is. Leaving the bed I went to the kitchen, quietly heading to make some of Kieran’s old favorites, while still fuming and grateful, all my emotions running high. I looked into the fridge, reaching to the eggs, I stepped back hitting a form that wasn’t there before. Startled, I spin to face my husband, Tony. “What are you doing awake?” he mumbles, eyeing he egg in my hands. “Making breakfast for Kieran.”

“How do you know he wants to eat?” Tony asked dryly, going to the stool, while I made him a cup of coffee. I shrug, moving about, “I don’t, but we – I – he,” I stumble not sure how to even begin to state how I feel or how badly we had dropped the ball when it came to our family.

“Can you wake Dominic and Connor?” I said wanting to get this done with, we had walked on eggshells last night after the gathering with the Luna and Alpha. I began cracking eggs into a bowl, listening to my mate waking my two sons, then the three of them coming into the kitchen, “What’s the deal dad?” Connor asked plopping his self at the table, Dominic following silently. Turning I faced them, “You two are going to share a-” Connor growled, his father canceling him out with his own. “Don’t be disrespectful to your mother!”

“Why? You think Kieran is going to stay here?” Connor asked, “I don’t think he’s going to be staying here, he will be staying here if he wants.”

“So you’re just pushing us aside for him after all he’s done?”

I scoffed, the anger I went to sleep with hitting full force once again, “What about what you’ve done? Bullying your own brother? Letting us all think that he attacked that girl out of nowhere, we condemned our own child because of that lying-” Connor let a snarl out.

“Watch it!” I snapped again, “You and Dominic and her sisters teased Kieran-”

“He made himself a target mom, he comes here and there’s no danger yet he stays in wolf form?” Connor ridiculed. “And you all thought that teasing him and annihilating him would be the best thing to do?” my lip shook. “Your mate got what she deserved, had me bending over backwards trying to make her feel welcomed when all along you all were the reason she’s-”

“So what she touched him Mom? He nearly killed her; he tore into her good she will never be able to…” he swallowed shaking his head, slamming his palm down on the table, making Dominic flinch, “She got what she deserved, what happened to her was a consequence of her actions, something I’ve been teaching you all since they day you were born… after everything he’s gone thro-”

“Mom it’s not always about him! We left and lost everything because of Kieran! He got taken because he didn’t listen to you, he went out alone and got kidnapped this isn’t something that was done just to him. It was done to all of us-” he didn’t get to finish, Tony tackled our son, his fist connecting a resounding crack echoing in the room. Dominic stood quickly; taking a step back away from his brother and father, “Stop!” I said moving forward to pull Tony from Connor, Dominic assisting me. “What is wrong with all of you?” Tera – my youngest – said blinking her eyes wide and watery. “Honey go back to be-”
