**XAVIER**
"The old people are going to a joint pack meeting in regards to Samuels ceremony" I nodded my head at Isabelle "So I was wondering if you wanted to go out to dinner with me?"
I sat there shocked "Shouldn't it be me asking you to dinner love?" I pull her close kissing her softly on the forehead
"Well, because you haven't been here before I thought I could do it" she says wriggling her eyebrows at me
I raise mine down at her "So I'm suppose to be the girl for the night?"
"Well" She had a teasing smile on her face yet, I knew she was choosing her words wisely as to not try and challenge my dominance. I was finding it amusing "Think of it as your mate showing you around her hometown... Please for me" her eyes held a pleading look in them which caused me to smile and kiss her lips
"I'd love to go to dinner"
"Just the two of us... It's been a while since it's hardly ever been just me and you" I watch the smile on her face which made her eyes light up. This is the smile I always loved seeing and with this threat on her life, I was glad to see this.
"That... Is very much needed" I say wrapping my arms around her waist pulling her close to me when we felt little hands trying to get in between us
"Me too?" We both look down and see Mikayla looking up "Undy Izzybells" She is definitely related to Isabelle when it comes to being adorable
Isabelle pulls away smiling and bends down to picking her up "Of course honey" she says placing little kisses on her cheeks
"Stop" Mikayla giggles. Watching her kiss Mikayla the way that she was, was tugging at my alpha heart. When I found out about my sister being pregnant, I felt a little jealous, that it wasn't my girl. I would love to father her children, I would love the feel of our offspring growing her in belly.
"But aunty wants more kisses" Isabelle laughs tickling her at the same time when I feel a set of hands bump into me and wrap around my legs. Troy had captured me already. He may not be mine but he is Isabelle's godson and I will always protect him.
"Uncle Xav" I see Troy and pick him up
"What's up little man?" I say when I look over at Isabelle who is looking at me with so much love in her eyes.
"Are you going to come to my nanas soon?" He asks as I look up over at Isabelle who nods her head
"Yeah soon but not today" we put the kids down and let them run off and play
"I'll let Mary know we are going out" I frown at her when she looks at Troy "I want him to spend as much time as he can with them before we take him with us" I nod as I watch her walk away. Blake comes over and sits beside me as we watch both our mates interact with his cousins mates.
"It's nice not having to worry a lot about pack matters" Blake says
"We have left it in good hands... You guys plan on staying with us until we leave next week?" I ask
"Well if Mel wants to stay"
"To be honest, I need my best friend with me and beta... We don't know how close this guy is to this territory or if it was him or not"
Blake offers me a nod when our mates look over smiling. Blake starts to look a bit nervous and I frown
"Can I ask you something?" I nod "I'm thinking about asking Mel to marry me"
My eyes widen at his words. I sit there silently contemplating his words. They've been together for a while and I was quite surprised he waited so long to do it. As my beta, he is the best. Kept a lot of my secrets, helped me make decisions even I had trouble with and knew the real me before the hard alpha that everyone in our pack knew.
