not his first mate now
chapter 25

I watch Dontae glare at me from across the table so I smil sweetly athim. I'm not really sure why Louisa was in the middle but I dare say itsthe same reason both sisters sat across from her with there matesbeside them. I look up at Candy, the baby of the family and notice sheis grinning at me, I was a little confused until I saw Xander with a hugegrin on his face and a deep purple shirt that matched his eyes.

(That cheeky bastard had planned for us to match and to top it off Iwas more on his side of the table then Dontae's.)

I give Xander my sharpest glare and shake my head at him.

"You look Gorgeous Lilliana.” Mary says with a big smile.

"thank you, and I love that green dress, it goes well with your blue eyes"The pore thing blushes like a tomato.

"Thank you, So how have you been?" she ask as a maid starts bringingout the first dish.

"Good, I opened up a mechanic work shop, we not only fix cars but wemake design's for the body. Some racers have come in wanting specificthings and I'm glade they liked them." I tell her as I think of my lifesince I've been on my own.

"And who does the designs? I would like to see some of his work, I'vealways wanted a dragon on the side of my car.” one of Xander's mensays with a dreamy look on his face, I laugh at him

"I'll see what I can come up with and we can go from there.” I tell himand receive a big smile in return, he was like a kid finally getting hisfavourite toy from Santa

"Where's dad?" Candy question made me freeze and I quickly lookdown at my soup, I push the pea and ham soup away with disgustedlook on my face.

Nasty crap, I'm so not eating that. I look up and remember Candy askedher mother a question, I quickly look to Louisa.

"He's helping some young pups with their training.” was all she toldthem, I sigh knowing she had no intention of telling them anything."Why is he doing that now? he never used to." Mary asked in confusion,she was right the old king never did anything like this, he wouldnormally leave it up to my father or Alphas to help the young onesbecome one with there wolves.

"There are many young who need help and because your father is nolonger the king he has decided to help the young ones out.” it soundedlogical but I knew the only reason he was doing it was because of myson.

"But mother that is there father's job, not our fathers.” I put my headdown at Xander's words, our next tray of food was brought in, sweetand sour pork with salad and chips on the side. I slowly pick at thechips on my plate

"Some children do not have a father to help train them and you can notexpect the Alphas to always do the job. Who else is better to help thenyour own father?” I could feel anger coming from Louisa as she spoketo her son.

"I'm sorry mother, you are right, father is the better option when itcomes to helping train the next generation.” I was hoping that now wecould change the subject but nope looks like everyone now hadsomething to say.

"I don't know how Alphas replace the time to help the children, I know mymate is always busy with the pack.” I hear Candy say.

"imagine all those young ones without someone to guide them." Karenpops up with, it hit home as I though of my own young pup, but I wasgrateful his grandfather was there to help in this type of situation."What kind of father leaves his pup to so it on his own like that? Theyneed a punch in the face the selfish pricks.” I hear one of Xander's mengrumble and the rest of the table agree with him. I think of them allbeating the crap out of Xaidens father and have to hold a giggle backfrom being herd.

"Is that why you sent your pup away for training? because his fatherwalked out on you Liliana." and the bitch pipes in, I turn to stare at herand see her clinging onto Dontae's arm.
