Chapter 62 Max

Chapter 62 Max

It's the next day and both the packs are coming back today, unfortunately.

The rogues are all back at the castle, recovering in the medical rooms Jeremiah provided, I didn't even know they had those. We are still unsure on what is going to happen to them after they are fully recovered but we will make that decision later.

Right now I am dreading to see Isabel again. The last time we saw each other we weren't really on good terms....

"I can slap her?" Anna suggests.

She isn't happy about her visit either. Before Isabel left she was also Anna's worst enemy, they both hated each other with a passion. So you can understand if she ever accidentally trips her or maybe even go has far to throttle her.

"No, but if she wants to match with someone, you'll be the top of the list."

She places her hand over her heart. "Have I told you how much I love you?"

"Yes and your actions told me enough." She is really protective of me. Mess with me and you are automatically on her bad side.

"Good. Now, how do I look?" She turns around doing different poses to show off her outfit.

"You look great, Anna. You can't really be doing this because she's coming, are you?"

"Look, I am seeing my arch nemesis and I need to look hot. Can't be looking like hot trash."

"I don't think she'll care that you are in joggers." I say looking over her joggers and tank top.

"Hey, I have to be comfortable, I'm not desperate. I have to one up her though.

"Of course you do." I mutter as I roll my eyes. "Can we go now? I'm hungry."

"Of course you are." She rolls her eyes and open the door. I quickly follow behind her to go downstairs.

Veronica and Jackson comes into view smacking it on in the kitchen.

"Woah!" Both Anna and I say in unison while covering our eyes. "Children are in the room." Anna announces.

"How may I help you ladies?" Veronica blushes.

"Elle, keeps nagging about wanting something to eat." I glare at her because she is being dramatic. I only told her ten times this morning. "For the past half hour." She adds.

I roll my eyes and turn my attention back in front of me. "Right ahead of you ladies." Jackson pulls out to plates with sandwiches from the micro wave.

"We made them as soon as you left to go upstairs. We were surprised when you didn't come down earlier. You've been up there for two hours."

"Aw, thank you and Anna, wouldn't let me leave. Even though she was changing most of the time." I said giving her a look which she chose to ignore.

"Anyway, you guys got food. Now eat before the packs arrive. Plus we should be having a guest soon." Veronica sighs tiredly.

Anna and I look at each other confused but didn't question anything else of it.

We start to eat our food and the door flies open. "We have a guest." Andrew announces.

We all look at him confused, it was clear that he was angry about something.

Jessica comes into view and walks past Andrew at the door way. "He's here and please be nice." She begs and turns to Andrew. "And don't scare him." She whisper yell.

"No promises."

"Boys be on your best behavior." Veronica scolded. "Invite him in, Andrew."

Andrew looks outside and nod to the person to come in. A boy tries squeezing past Andrew, obviously scared shitless.

"Andrew, could you please leave the boy alone and come stand next to me.?" He looks up at me with puppy dog eyes and I send him a deadly look before he stumps over to me like a child.

"Hi, Mr. and Mrs. Walters, Alpha, Luna and..." He stops, not knowing Anna's name. She brushes it off and tell him to continue.

"I'm Max, it's nice to meet you."

"This is Max, huh? What is your intentions with my daughter?" Jackson doesn't beat around the bush.

"Oh my god, he's talking to our daughter, not asking for a marriage proposal, Jack." Veronica says clearly annoyed.

"No, it's fine Mrs. Walters. I really do like your daughter and would love to know more about her."

"Watch it." Andrew warns. I wrap his arms around me ensuring he stays where he is. Both Andrew and Jackson are really protective of Jess and it gets really annoying at times. But this is the first guy she ever told them about liking and they are taking as much advantage as possible.

"I understand your parents are one of our best weapon builders."

"Yes sir."

"Good people. What do you like to do for fun?"

"Basket ball." He says proudly.

"What do you do fun with my daughter?"

"Oh my goddess, Dad!"

Max smiles and says, "She actually loves when I teach her how to play basket ball."

"I thought you hated basket ball?" Andrew and Jackson asked in unison.

I kick my foot back in his shin. He groans bends down trying to sooth the pain.

"Well I found interest in it now." Jess, says through gritted teeth.

"Ok, I only got one more question for you. How does the moon cut his hair?" He smirks feeling confident in his joke. Jessica rolls her eyes, annoyed.

"Uh, Eclipse it."

"That's right!" Jackson bust out laughing and Max joins in. "I like you son."

"Really?" Everyone asks surprised.

"Yeah, this kid is hilarious."

"It wasn't that funny." Andrew mumbles under his breath. I roll my eyes and get up off the stool. "Well we have to go. The packs will be here any minute." I pull Andrew behind me as I walk towards the door. "It was nice to meet you, Max." I then look at Jessica. "Good luck." I mouth to her. She smiles and sticks her tongue out at Andrew.

I laugh at their little interaction. I realize Anna wasn't behind me and shout, "Anna!"

"Coming." It sounds like her mouth is full. I didn't even get to finish mine.

I frown and stop once we were outside. "Why are you being so mean to the kid?"

"The kids a little prick. I'm telling you Elle, that kid is the spawn of Satan."

"Stop being so dramatic. He seems so sweet."

"Yeah, 'seems'. The kid once told me off and poured ice water down my shorts."

I snicker trying to keep my laugh in. "You think this funny?"

"No, baby. "I lied. It was clearly in my eyes.

"Oh really?" I stop as I see some evil glint swirling in his eyes. Next thing I know I'm hanging upside down and staring at his ass.

"Nice ass." I comment with a giggle.

"Yours is the best view." I can just imagine the smirk on his face.

"Well get a good look because it's the last time you are seeing it. Now put me down!" I yell.

"I'm not sure. Let me savor this moment."

"The packs have arrived." Chris announced through the mind link.

Andrew sighs and reluctantly puts me down. "Are you sure you can deal with Isabel being her?"

"Yes." I peck his lips and then my mind ran back on someone. "Speaking of which, where the hell is Anna?"

"I'm right here." She comes rushing out the house. "I forgot something, sorry."

"What your dignity?" I joked.

"Shut up."

We quickly met up with the packs in front of the pack house. The entire time of telling them where to go and what to do, Luca, keeps looking at me weirdly. Wonder if he's still angry about our last encounter, either way I'm not sorry about anything.

All of them are lead to their respected rooms and we agreed to meet with the leaders in 15 minutes. Andrew steps away for a second to settle something with Chris.

The last time I saw Anna she was sending deadly glares to Isabel, who was busy trying to flirt with Andrew. Which got me both upset and confused.

Doesn't she have a mate? I know she met him/her before because she can shift into her wolf form.

Anyway I don't care. She just need to get her man hands off my man.

"Do you have something to tell me?" A very angry person asks behind me.

My eyes widen and I slowly turn around, nervously smiling. "Mia, I missed you so much."

"What is this hear about you being pregnant?" I quickly cover her mouth with my hand not wanting any of the other packs to hear. She continues talk but her voice is muffled.

"Could you please keep it down? I don't want the other packs to know." I whisper.

I slowly remove my hands and she raises an eyebrow. "Well, are you?"

"Yes."

She begins squealing and gives me tight hug. I laugh because of her craziness. "I'm so happy for you and Andrew. Who else knows?"

"Uh.... the entire pack." I said nervously.

"I'm the last to find out?!"

"I'm so sorry. You weren't around and it was kind of unplanned when I announced it."

She frowns. "It's fine, you don't have to apologize. It's just that it hurts to find out last, that your bestfriend having a mini her."

"No, don't feel bad. You'll be there every step of the way of his/her life."

"I hope." She mutters.

"No. None of that bullshit, ok?" I really don't want hear anymore of this, 'if we make it out alive'. I just really want to enjoy the moment with the ones I love and help others along the way.

"Ok, miss bossy." Slowly a smile creeps up on her face.

"I am not bossy!"

"Keep telling yourself that."

I scoff and through my arm around her shoulder. "You are lucky I like you."

"Please, you love me."

After, Andrew and I went to the meeting room along with Chris and Emma to have the official meeting with the packs. We all take our respectable seats and it finally began.

"So-" Andrew begins but was cut off.

"What I want to know who the hell is Liza?" Isabel asked.

Andrew and I share a look.

Oh no.
