The Howls Of The Night. { Werewolf/Human Love Story. } Chapter Twenty Eight.

I looked up to see someone as they pick me up and I saw Dylan face smile at me, “Come on, Makenna. Go in the water with me.”,

I remember shaking my head and squirming to get out of his hold, “No!”,

He ignored me and lifted me up until I was placed behind his neck, my legs dangling from each shoulder and I held onto his head, “Fine, you wont go into the water.”,

I remember have this awful feeling when he stepped into the water and I only cling to his head more and he chuckled.

“I got you princess, don’t worry.”, he said and that seem to loosen me up a little.

I remember growing bored as he walked around in the lake and I laid my cheek on the top of his head. A moment later, he splashed up the water on us and I squealed so loud, I’m amazed his ears didn’t start bleeding.

“You promise!”, I yelled. “You so mean, daddy!”,

“I didn’t say anything about promises, princess.”, he said and my hands went in his hair as his hands went to upper arm and he tried to take me off his shoulder and I start to tug, “Ow! Makenna, stop!”,

“Don’t put me in the water then, daddy!”, I yelled and I remember hearing laughter around us and now I realized it was my aunts and uncles.

“You are as stubborn as your mother.”, he said.

“Mommy is perfect.”, I said. “She brave.”,

“Yeah, she is.”, he said in a low voice that it sounded sad.

I stopped the flashback and looked up at him, “I was pretty stubborn.”,

“Yes, you were. But I loved you.”, he said. He didn’t speak for a moment, “Why don’t you tell me what’s on your mind. How do you actually feel about me?”,

I shrugged, “You’re a good dad I guess.”,

“But?”,

I hesitated, then sigh, “But it’s hard to get to use still. It’s more like you’re a step-dad instead of my biologic father. It’s just…hard. I can’t just go by calling you Mr. Blackwood to Dylan, then to dad in a short amount of time.”,

The look on his face was sad, but understanding. Ugh, he just had to do that? It made me feel guilty now when I’m still wondering if I’m right or wrong to feel how I do.

I spoke as he got up, “There’s one thing I didn’t get to do with Jackson.”, I said and he looked down at me confused. “He never had the chance to comfort me when I have a broken heart and right now, I could have someone hold me.”,

He gave me a small smile and I moved back so he could lay on the bed next to me. He had his back on the headboard as I put my head on his chest and one across his stomach. He rubbed my back as I took in the warmth. I raised my knees up a little and relax.

Alpha Dylan:

Once Makenna fell back to sleep, Dylan slowly peeled himself from her arms and placed her under the covers. He watched as she turned her head off to the side and her mouth slightly opened as she breath slightly.

He’ll admit, she does look like a little girl. She has such a baby like face and innocently. As if the need to already to protect his daughter was there, all he wanted to do was make her happy. The sad look on those eyes made his heart break and he doesn’t know if he can take it anymore.
