Chapter 35
Chapter 35
Ace barely said anything the entire car ride home. It was tense and silent as I stared out the
window watching the scenery go past. We were nearly all the way home before he even spoke.
“So did you and Tyson” He didn't finish yet his grip on the steering wheel tightened but I knew what
he meant.
“Did we have sex?” He said nothing but I knew I was right with the way he swallowed and his eyes
flickered for a second.
“No we didn’t, not that it would be any of your business if we did” I tell him. He nods, turning at the
cross section.
“Would you really be mad if we did?” I ask him, shocked at his strange reaction, all this because I
marked Tyson.
“No, Lucy I wouldn't, I was just curious” He pauses for a second looking at me before looking
away. “Tyson waited, I get it and you should be with him” Ace says letting out a breath.
“You didn’t let Tyson mark you?” Ace says pulling up in the driveway of the packhouse and stops
the car.
“No I asked him too, he wouldn’t” I tell him and Ace pulls the keys from the ignition before turning
to face me.
“What, Why?” He asks, seeming confused.
“Because I haven’t marked you that's why” I tell him, a little pissed off. Ace looks out the windshield
and nods.
“But you want him to?” He asks and I chew my lip nervously but nod.
“I’ll speak to him, he shouldn;t feel guilty for the mess I made of everything” He says, opening the
car door and getting out.
I open my door and get out of the car. Ace walks over to me and walks to the front door with me.
“Are you excited?” He asks.
“Yes, but nervous how mum will be” I tell him and he reaches over and grabs my hand before he
squeezes my fingers. “You can always come home Lucy, whether or not you decide to let me be with
you, it is your home” Ace says before letting go. I was just about to knock when the front door was
thrown open and Rayan tackled me. He squeezes his arms around my middle and I kiss the top of his
head.
“God this place is boring without you” Rayan says, squeezing me tighter and I hug back excited to
have him close again.
“How’s mum?”
“Good, better” He says before noticing Ace next to me.
Rayan turns and folds his arms across his chest and staring him down.
“Rayan?” Ace arches a brow at the glare Rayan was giving him, if he didn’t only come up to Ace’s
stomach I would actually be worried by the deadly glare Rayan was giving him.
“If I was Alpha I would have banished you from the pack for what you did to Lucy '' Rayan telsl him
and I snort before muffling my laughter.
“Good thing your not Alpha, what are you going to do pip squeak?” Ace asks.
“I should punch you in the mouth for just being in her presence” Rayan growls at him.
“If you could reach short stuff” Ace says when suddenly Rayan punches him in the nuts. I choke on
my spit when Ace drops clutching his balls, his face turning red when he drops to his knees and Rayan
pulls his arm back before punching him in the face as hard as he could, which probably wasn;t hard but
he definitely showed Ace he could punch him in the mouth.
Ace growls at him and reaches for him but I pull Rayan back to me before Ace smacks his
nephew's ass. “That’s for my sister” Rayan spits at him before walking inside like he was the king of the
world. I chuckle before offering my hand to Ace, he growls but takes it and I pull him up. All content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.
“Think the little shit just popped one of my testicles out my ass” He says, adjusting himself just as
Ryker comes out.
“Lucy?” He says shocked like he didn’t realise we were here yet.
“Your mother was just asking when you would get here” He said, chucking his arm across my
shoulders and pulling me toward the stairs.
‘What was it you had to tell me?” I ask him, but he shakes his head.
“Doesn’t matter, everything seems better now, she has been good Lucy like when you were a kid”
Ryker says as we walk up the steps. Ace follows us up and we stop out the front of my parents
bedroom door.
“Lucy she is good I promise, I think she is getting better” Ryker tells me but yet I still didn;t
understand, better from what?
He opens the door and I see my mother sitting on the bed with my brother in her arms bundled in a
blanket. Her eyes lighting up when she saw me and grin lights up her face.
“Lucy” She says excitedly waving me over and I move toward her sitting on the bed beside her. I
tuck the blanket back wrapped around his small body, to look at his little face. He looked so much like
Rayan, with his dark luscious locks of hair and silver eyes. It was definitely a family trait amongst the
males in the Black family.
“You want to hold him?” My mother asks and I nod eagerly. I hold my arms out making sure to
support his little head when she passes him to me.
“Hello Ryden” I whisper to him, he yawns, his eyes fluttering shut as I hold him.
Ace comes over looking at him. He strokes the back of Ryden’s hand.
“Reminds me of Rayan,” Ace says and I nod.
“How do you feel?” I ask my mother, turning to look at her.
“Tired, but better” She says looking at my stepfather. He nods to her and my brows furrowed in
confusion.
“Your birthday is next week, are you staying home, I can help you set up your room” She says
yawning.
“I will stay but I will just stay in Rayan’s room” I tell her.
“You sure Lucy I can have a few people fix your room” Ryker asks but I shake my head.
“I'll stay a few days but I want to go home back to Ace and Tyson’s” I tell him and he nods. I look at
Ace to make sure he meant what he said and he leans down kissing my head. But this was no longer
home, home isn’t meant to be uncomfortable and being here I felt like I was walking on eggshells,
home was with them, as much as I denied it they were home.
“Can Ace have a hold of him?” I ask my mother who nods. I could tell Ace was waiting to get his
hands on him, he loved kids and the moment I asked he already had his hands out for him. I passed
him to him and Ryden looked tiny in his arms. “Hey little man” Ace says, sitting next to me with Ryden
in his arms.
After a few minutes Ace says he has to go and give Ryden back to mum. I walk him downstairs to
the door.
“Mindlink if you want to come home, one of us will come get you” Ace says before hesitating as he
turns before turning back to me. He tugs me to him hugging me and I let him before hugging him back.
“I will speak to Tyson for you” He whispers but I shake my head.
“No, Lucy he doesn’t need to feel guilty for me” Ace says before pulling away and walking back to
his car. I watch him leave before walking back up to see mum and spend time with her and my
brothers.
