I can't believe that asshole just left me here. In his bed. Cuff as if I'm his prisoner. You would think this is sexy, being cuffed to the bed but it's not. It's not sexy nor is it fun.

I wait for couple of minutes, telling myself that Calvin would come back and free me. He would probably apologise because the Calvin I have seen lately has been sweet. I would probably be mad at him for a couple of seconds then forgive in the hope that he forgives me. But he doesn't return.

So I wait a couple of more minutes. Couple minutes turns into an hour and at this point I'm just mad. I'm fuming. Sweet my ass! He's horrible jerk who left an innocent woman in his bed, in the middle of the freaking woods. Someone could come in and try to murder me. They won't succeed but they would feel brave enough to feel like they can.

I'm a mother. I'm away from my children. They must be confused right about now. I'm just glad that they are with people I trust because Calvin would be in hospital right about now.

I'm going to give him few more minutes then I'm getting out of these cuff. I'm insulted. Does he believe I wouldn't get out of this cuff?

-doesn't know your Ace wolf or that you have even shifted-

Good. I would use that as my advantage.

I could get out of this and go to my kids but I want him to trust me. Trust that I won't run even when I have the opportunity too.

When he didn't return, I get a bobby pin from my hair ( so glad I decided to put some in my hair this morning. My hair had been extra wild today).

Sure I could just break it off. The idiots probably thinks I haven't shifted yet. I would just have to use my human technique. Carefully taking the cuff off my wrist after managing to unlock it, I rub my wrist to get my blood flowing properly.

I have to be alert. So when I hear him coming, I would have to jump back to the room. I could just stay where I am so he can see I'm not as useless as he believes I am. That I don't even have to use my wolf strength to get out off cuffs but I want to see how he's going to react. Is he going to be guilty that he left me there for hours or be indifferent.

I look around and finally take in his room. The place he sleeps in. Hopefully alone.

-pathetic-

I know. It's your fault.

-partly. Wolves can be possessive and extra jealous.-

His room is plain and I guess you could describe it as a typical man's room. No pictures, no decorations, no theme. Wall is white, curtain is blue, bed sheet is satin black and has one pillow. One king size bed, a walking closet(from what I could see) and two bedside tables. That's all this bedroom has. No rugs. Nothing personal. It's quite sad but knowing Calvin he probably just sleeps here and never spends time on it. There is a shelf at the corner of the room. Two rows filled with books. It's tidy, the room anyways. No clothes on the floor, just two shoes near the door. It is a good space just empty.

I start getting hungry to I making my way to the kitchen to see what's there to eat. He has nothing in the figure, barely anything in cupboards but he does have bread, butter, coffee, jam and peanut butter. I guess I making myself peanut butter and jam sandwich with coffee to drink. I get a plate and make myself home. After few minutes I'm on the couch with my coffee in one hand and my sandwich in the other watching reruns brotherly love.

Couple of hours past before I heard and smelt Calvin. I quickly turned off the television and run to the room and jumping on the bed to cuff myself again. I sit there trying to look bored. I hear his footsteps stopping in the living room for a brief second before he making he's way to his room. For a quick second I ask myself if I should fake sleeping because I'm not the mood to 'talk' anymore. It's late and I just want to sleep.

He opens the door slowly and for a second I see confusion then guilt then back to confusion. He walks to me, gets something from the back of his pocket. A key. The butthole took the key with him. I didn't even look for it but still.

He sits beside me. Doesn't say anything but stares into my eyes and allowing me to see the little golden drops in his hazel eyes. It's beautiful and I'm so glad my twins inherited it.

The twins. My children. They must be worried. I have never spent this long without getting in connect with them. I always tell them where I am and wish them a goodnight. I'm guessing that I don't get to do that tonight and suddenly my angry is back.

Unlike every other wolf, my eyes don't flash any other colour. My wolf thinks it tacky.

-it is and it gives away how you feel. Never let your enemy know how you feel.-

He unlocks the cuff and sets me free. I rub my wrist, pretending that I'm hurting and that I have been sitting him all this time.

"You left me here for hours"I break the silent because it's getting awkward with him staring and not saying anything.

"I wasn't expecting to be gone that long. I apologise"

"And that's meant to fix things. What if some came in here and saw me on cuff. I would have been an easy victim. I could have been hurt"

"First of all, no one would dare to come to my place. Second you would have just got out of the cuffs like you did."

I went silent because I don't know how he knew I escaped. I looked around for cameras but couldn't see any. So I face him again and raise my brow.

"You left your plate in the living room"

Damn it to hell.

"And I have seen you fight. I'm pretty sure you would have kicked their ass"

I ignore his compliment.

"I thought we were supposed to talk? I left my kids. I didn't even get to say bye properly. They must be wondering why I am. I have never been apart from them overnight"

He's right to feel guilty when he looked down at the pillow now between us.

"I stopped by to let them know you're not coming back tonight. Lily was okay with it but Cameron was glaring at me accusingly"

Atta boy. My son has my back. He is mama's boy, not doubt about that.

"Wouldn't stop until Dylan spoke to him"

I watch as his jaw clenches. And it was my turn to feel guilty.

"Why?"he says so quietly I almost missed it.

I swo

"I guess I was scared I mean you rejected me without you thinking... just done it and I guess it hurt a lot and I thought that if you knew about them you would reject them too. I know I should've told you."I look at my nails as if that's would give me the support and power to continue my embarrassing confession.

"Look it was always something it was always probably there was always something that kept stopping me from telling you"

After a long wait. He decides to reply.

"I-I don't know what I would have done. I wasn't in a good place around that time Charlotte I can't say anything on how I would've reacted and whether I would have taken anything back but I know for sure that I wouldn't have abandoned them." He looks up at me meeting my gaze.

"I would have tried my damn hardest to be a good dad to them. I could have taken care of you too"

Yeah right! I didn't scoff even though I wanted to so bad. I just looked away.

"Look it's getting late. We can discuss more about this tomorrow. You can take the bed. I will sleep in the next room. For tonight anyways"

Say what? He didn't just say what I think he just said.

Before I could say anything to him. He just walks off.

-------

"Is that it"Mi na asks in disappointment.

We are in the kitchen at the house she's staying in, making lunch for everyone. I just finished telling her what happened.

"What do you mean is that it? That's more than enough"

I mean I was cuff to the bed. And left there. So not cool!

-would you have liked it if he joined you-

Pffft what am I? A pathetic dormant?

"Tell me about that part where he picks you up and throws you over his shoulders"she bats her lashes. "It was so hot"

That is when Cole and Dylan decide to walk in.

"What's hot?"

"Coles caveman tendencies"she said in a awe.

"And that's my queue to get out"Dylan says walking out but not before he stole fries from the counter it was placed on.

Cole gives me a kiss on the forehead before walking to his mate and giving her a quick kiss before wrapping his hands around her waist.

"How was the talk?"Cole asks.

"It was okay. We didn't discuss much last night but we spoke a bit this morning over breakfast"

I woke up to Calvin in his kitchen, shirtless making us breakfast. It was a sight. Definitely. I tried to ignore his ripped torso or his tight bubble ass that you could definitely bounce a quarter off. I tried to ignore his muscles, the veins in his forearms. His bare chest. His messy brown hair. His extra deep morning voice. Obviously I didn't succeed. If he felt me spying on him, he didn't say anything. I'm so glad because if he comments, I would have died with embarrassment.

Fun fact about Calvin. He can't really cook. The only thing he knows how to make is eggs. It was okay. Not great but it was decent enough for me to not want to throw up.

Whilst eating, Calvin and I discussed about what we plan to do now. We didn't discuss about what my decision were about moving back to the pack. Perhaps he thought that was going to happen anyway so there was no point talking about it. To be honest, I don't really know what to do about that all I know is the decision is mine.

"He wants to tell the twins that's his their father"I tell them.

"What do you think?"Cole asks.

I told Calvin that if I introduce him to them as their father. He's going to be in their life forever. He can't ever push them away. He's going to love them and treat them amazing or I'm going to kill him. I think he thinks I was kidding. He promised to so I guess that is that. I should be happy but...

"I don't know. I mean it's great he want to be part of their lives. He's great with them. It is in his right. I know this sounds pathetic but I had them to be myself for their whole existence and now I have to suddenly share"I pout.

Cole shakes his head softly chuckling.

"You're their mum Charlie. That's not going to change. Ever. You and Mi na along with my mum and Dylan's are the best mothers I have ever seen. They are not going to replace you. It's not possible. " he says pulling away from his mate long enough to give me a bear hug.

"I know"I mumble to his chest. "I'm scared. I don't like changes"

"I know darling. But it's going to be alright. Calvin is a good man that made stupid mistakes I know he's going to spend his whole life fixing"he replies.

He gives me a kiss on my hair before walking back to his mate.

I love these two. So much. They were my family. No matter what.
