Chapitre 93: Chapter 2.14
"That is enough!" A shaky voice yelled and my whole body trembled. I held tightly to Ashley as I bowed.
"Grandmother," I whispered, "Atsiprašau, kad ginčijatės jūsų akivaizdoje." (I apologize for arguing in your presence.) I averted my gaze to the floor as I fought tears.
"William," she began and I rushed to meet her gaze, but realized she was talking to my father. He looked to her with some hesitation. "Clearly this girl's claims are not true. Will has not done anything wrong."
"But, mother..."
She held up her hand and father froze in fear, "I have heard enough of this. Will has a mate of elite status, even higher than ours. We have no right to argue with the mate of this Alpha."
I gulped before looking to the floor. I'm a moron. For a second there, I thought she was going to ask my family to accept me. Of course she isn't. I'm an Omega. She only wants to avoid angering Jayden and his elite family.
Everyone paused when a cry rang through the room. I sighed before putting Ashley down and watching Emit rush to me. He looked to me in horror as I chuckled, "give her here."
He quickly handed her to me and I began lightly rocking her as I held her against my chest, near my heart. My mother looked to me with shock as the crying immediately stopped.
"Is Addie okay, Momma?"
I nodded as I gave Archer a gentle smile, "she's okay, sweetie." I looked over to Elizabeth, "I wish it had not come to this, Liz. But you have put my family through unnessisary struggle. I'm fine with our children associating as classmates, but do not bother my family again. Just like you, I'm sure, I will protect my children with everything I have. And after living on the streets for so long, with no family, I can assure you that you don't want to challenge me."
Jayden ran his fingers gently through my hair before kissing my cheek, "Luther," he hissed as they made eye contact, "if you step foot on the school campus again, you will have a restraining order filed against you."
"We should go," I quietly stated before bowing slightly to the elders, "thank you for your time."
I turned to walk out, "wait!"
Juliet stood out of the crowd with tears filling her eyes, "mother, father, please!" She gestured towards me, "Will is our kin! Do you really not want to know your grandchildren?!" She began crying as she looked to our father, "he has an Alpha mate, so why is he still disowned?!"
Malcolm stepped forward from the other side of the group, "his gender has not changed!" He hissed before pointing at us, "and the skin and hair of those children show they are not of this group! They're freaks!" I felt my stomach flip as my body quivered with rage, "just like their slut of a Momma."
A flood came over the group and they all began to sweat, pant, and turn red. I collapsed but Emit fought to hold me up. Jayden stormed over to Malcolm as his pheromones continued to flood over the room. "You dare speak of my mate and our children like that?!" He grabbed my brother by the collar and lifted him off the ground slightly.
I felt my entire body overcome with lust and need. I was sweating, shivering, panting, and fighting to hold back a moan.
Father tried to get to his feet, but collapsed back into his chair again, "let go of my son!"
Jayden stared at my father before dropping Malcolm. My brother gasped as he sat on the ground and watched Jayden in horror. Jayden stormed to my father and towered over the elders that sat in fear. They probably had never been around pheromones this strong before.
"To allow your child to speak to his own sibling like that is disgraceful!" He smirked, "you believe you are strong just because you are Alphas, but you could never survive what Will has been through!"
Emit began to shiver as Jayden's pheromones increased even more and he was unable to help me stay up. I fought to keep ahold of Addie as I collapsed to the ground. "Jay," I whispered as it was the loudest I could get. He continued yelling at my father, but I could barely make out what they said over the ringing filling my ears.
"Momma!" The twins gasped as they rushed over to me and helped me not collapse onto the ground completely.
"Watch Momma," Archer whispered before suddenly standing up. I tried to stop him, but my body would not move anymore. I watched in shock as he ran to Jayden and grabbed his fist. "Daddy!" Archer yelled as Jayden did not notice his hand. "Stop!"
Jayden paused and his pheromones diminished slightly as he looked down to Archer with surprise. Everyone shuddered and let out deep sigh as they could finally breath. I shook as I still was unable to get up but the ringing stopped and I had enough energy to not fall flat on the floor.
"Don't be like them! Don't hurt Momma!"
Jayden's pheromones shut off as he looked back to me. His eyes widened in fear as he saw me weakly kneeling on the ground. "Will," he gasped before rushing over to me. He grabbed Addie out of my hands and held her in one arm before pulling me to my feet with the other. He pulled me into his chest and I heard his heart racing. "God, Will," he whispered into my ear before he placed his chin on my head.
I pulled out of his arms with a smile, "I'm okay," I replied before turning to Malcolm. I smiled kindly to him, "you can say what you want about me, brother. But," I gestured to Jayden, "if you say another disrespectful word about our children, you will regret it." I smiled around the room, "please excuse us."
"Will," my father began, but I stared him down.
"We will not be bothering you again." I walked over to the kids and took the twin's hands. I turned to Emit, "it might make things worse if you come with us, but it's up to you."
He smiled before beginning to follow us, "son!" Emit's father hissed as we all paused. "Get away from those people."
Emit stared him down, "then you plan to recognize my boyfriend?"
He scoffed, "of course not. He's a male Omega!"
"Then I am going with Uncle Will."
I sighed, "Emit will be living with us as I am his boyfriend's guardian. We will be sure to take great care of him."
"Get back here, Emit! Don't let this Omega ruin you!"
Emit stared down my father, "I love Uncle Will, regardless of his gender. And I love Chase more than you can ever understand. Unless you plan to accept both of them, leave us alone." Emit wrapped his arm around my chest to support me as I walked and we left the room. We left the house and I leaned against the car as Jayden and Emit got the kids ready.
"Will!" I turned in surprise to see Juliet rushing towards me. She stopped beside me while breathing hard, "I don't want to ignore you anymore. I want to know you and your family."
I smiled to her before moving next to her. I kissed her head and then smiled to her, "I can't let you do that, Juliet. I don't want you to face these difficulties."
She passed a piece of paper to me, "please, just call me."
I nodded before looking to the house. My father stood angrily watching us, "they're waiting for you." I whispered before going to the passenger's seat, sitting, and shutting the door. Jayden looked to me as I collapsed into the seat. "Home," I whispered as the shivering finally took over again.
I closed my eyes for our long drive and slowly heard the twins and Addie fall asleep. "Uncle," Emit whispered and I opened one eye before turning to look behind the driver's seat. "Juliet has been advocating for you all along."
I sighed, "she was only 6 when I was disowned. She should barely remember me."
"She remembers, Uncle. You were the only one who let her act like a child and played with her. Just like you did for me."
I smirked before closing my eye again, "I'm sorry you had to leave the family. But I am happy you were willing to do that for Chase. I know you will give him the support he needs."
I leaned back into my seat and felt Jayden's gaze on me. Luckily, we soon reached the house and Chase rushed out to me. He hugged me tightly without having to know what happened.
He pulled us apart and I leaned against the car, "don't worry about the kids. Cora, and I will get them to bed."
I smirked, "and Emit," I replied and Chase looked to me with surprise. "He will be living with us starting today."
Chase gained a goofy smile as he looked to Emit who walked around the car. Chase quickly rushed to help Emit as Cora came out of the house. She came to me with a sad smile, "do you need help getting inside?"
"I've got that covered." Jayden stated as he appeared at my side. "I'll make sure Will is set for the night. If you can take care of the kids, that would be a big help. Also," he winked at me, "make sure the two teenage lovebirds keep it PG-13."
Cora chuckled, "got it, boss."
