The Solitary Alpha

41 - Dinner with the Family ~ #2

Finally getting out of the airport it was already 6:45p. Kenji had texted her to let her know he was there and couldn't wait to see her. She let him know that they would be late but were on the way. Sanada gently held her hand.

"How you feeling baby? You've had a stressful day."

"I know, I'm sorry about the whole airport mess, I was so not feeling being around that many people. I would have been fine if people hadn't tried to touch me."

"Yeah, I noticed they were mostly foreigners."

"Yeah, but I'm home now. I feel better, I'm just exhausted."

"Are you going to be ok around everyone?"

"I think so, trust me, you'll know if I'm not. I already know everyone is going to freak when they see my eyes, so..."

"Well, you just let me know, and we'll leave."

"Okay. God I can't believe my little brother found me..."

"That is weird, I feel sorry for them. Getting dragged to a country you don't even know then having to fend for yourself."

"Yeah, at least they have their dad. Thanks again for feeding him and taking him to the airport."

Sanada kissed her hand. He could tell she was beyond exhausted. He wondered if she'd be up for going to work for two days. He had no problem with taking the rest of the week off. They reached her dad's around 7:30p.

Walking up to the house her dad was already at the door, anxiously waiting.

{Are you going to be ok with me hugging everyone?}

{Sure babe}

Gideon reached the door and gave her dad a huge hug. He lifted her face to gaze into a striking pair of grey eyes.

"Wow, this is going to take some getting used to kiddo!"

"I know, trust me. Hey dad I need to talk to you for a minute."

Sanada walked up to them and gave her dad a hug, he kissed his mate and made his way to the others. Her dad led her to his office which was off the living room. Luckily she didn't have to go past any of the others just yet. Once inside his office she shut the door.

"What's going on Gi?"

"I- ...." Gideon showed her dad her phone with the picture of her and her brother.

"Who is this?"

"Trevor, one of my brothers."

"WHAT!!!"

Gideon flinched from her dad's yelling, his voice carried through the entire house.

"Calm down, let me explain. Dad, they're just kids. He's only 16!"

"16! I thought they were adults?!"

"So did I! He hacked mom's phone for my number and found me from that. He asked someone about me when he got to my apartment and they let him in."

"So how did that go?"

"You know dad, it went great. He was terrified to death that they would arrest him. He's a good kid. He said mom forced them to come, they didn't even know about me until they got on the plane to fly over here. She treats them the same way she did me, he said she's hardly around and they stay with their dad most of the time."

"I see, poor kids. I don't know why your mom just can't be a 'mom' Gi...she wasn't like that when I first met her."

"I know dad."
