Chapter 114

LIAM Mom and Dad had been gone for over two weeks already , which meant Azura was here with us .

Raven had gone early that morning to Kiara’s pack as they had some shopping t o do for the wedding .

I don’t get how women’s shopping never finishes , but if they’re happy shopping , what more could I ask for ? Anyway , since Raven was gone , so I was stuck minding my adorable little sister . The only problem was that she’s a four year – old pup who has asked way too many questions and still picks her boogers , although she told me a few weeks ago she doesn’t … Lie . She had been fairly good to be fair , although she gets a bit emotional every time she gets off a video call with Mom . ” So Wiyam , what we do now ?

” She asked , rubbing her nose .I raised my eyebrows , it was past five in the afternoon . ” Well , I’m thinking , how about we make a nice meal for when Raven gets back ? It will be a nice surprise for her , what do you think pumpkin ? ” ” Oo Wiyam , I love the idea ! ” She said with her eyes wide with excitement . ” We make cake too ? ” ” Definitely make cake , Raven loves cake . But I’ll make cake … ”

Can’t have her hands in the food .

I felt guilty at the thought , staring at the bundle of cuteness . ” Waven loves Wiyam too . ” She added and I gave her a small smile , ruffling her hair . ” And she loves Azura too . ” ” 1 She nodded and I gave her a tight hug . She was an observant child , and I knew that as she got older , she’ll begin to notice how some people treated her , their glances and their whispered remarks . I was going to protect her the best I could . ” Wiyam , do you miss Waven ? ” She asked , concerned as she stared up at me .

” I do , but can’t I hug my little sister otherwise ? ” I questioned . ” You can . Ok , Wiyam you cook , I go watch TV then you give me the leftover cweam . ” I watched her rush off before I got to work in the kitchen . She sure could be such a good girl . I had just put the roast chicken in the oven and was stirring the custard when I realised Azura was no longer in front of the TV .

Shit , I didn’t even realise when she left ! I could hear her steady heartbeat and rushed to check up on her , pushing open our bedroom door to see her sitting on Raven’s stool in front of the make – up table with several of her make – up palettes and lipsticks open . ” Look Wiyam , I bootiful . ” I looked at her .

Wow , she sure turned into a Halloween horror pumpkin overnight … Garish purple lipstick was smeared over her lips and all around it , her cheeks were a horrendous pink and her eyes looked as if someone had punched her a few times , and to make it worse , the liquid liner was spread all over her lids and around her eyes . Goddess . ” You were far more beautiful before baby girl . ” I commented quickly , going over to her . Shit , would Raven get mad ? She had totally wrecked half these powdery eyeshadows . “

No , I look nice now . ” She pouted at her reflection . Did she really think she looked good ? Shit , now I needed to get this all cleaned u p before Raven got back … ” Ok look , let’s get you washed up ” No , no Wiyam ! I keep it on , I show H Waven I love her make up . ” ” No , if Raven sees you like that she might scream at how scary you look . ” I said , grabbing the wipes Raven used before showering .

Wrong fucking sentence .

Her large eyes pooled with tears , getting wider and wider by the second . Her lips quivered and I closed my eyes just as she broke into sobs . ” Wiyam say I scawy , I no scawy ! I want Mama ! ” Tears .

An entire fucking waterfall of them . Damn . I remembered the last time I triggered her off , when Raven had first returned home . ” No pumpkin , come on , no crying . You look beautiful , if you want to wear make – u P , you wear make – up , ok ? ” ” MAMA ! ” Shit . I picked her up only for her to scream louder , her sobs getting worse , and she began struggling in my arms . Whatever she had put on her eyes was spreading down her face and now I think even the joker would be put to shame . ” Ok , ok . Azura , listen . “

” MAMA ! ” Shit . I carried her from the bedroom , rocking her slightly to sooth her . W ” Look Azura , it’s Peppa Pig . ” ” Wiyam watch stupid Peppa ! I want Mama ! ” Her face was bright red and , well , black , purple and blue too , but that wasn’t the point right now . The smell of something burning made my fall to the gas cooker . gaze Shit ! The custard ! Fuck , fuck , fuck ! ” One second , pumpkin ! ” I ran to the kitchen switching it off , the smell of burned custard filled my nose and I sighed . There goes that …

She writhed and kicked wanting to be put down , so I took her to the sofa , putting her down and crouching before her . ” Ok Azura , come on baby girl , don’t cry , please ? How can I make it up to you ? “

She continued screaming and crying ” Please Azura , come on , I’ll do anything ? Tell me what do you want , sweets ? Coke ? Chocolates ? ” Her screaming suddenly stopped and I narrowed my eyes .

Wasn’t that a bit too fast for tears to just stop ? But … her cheeks were soaking wet … I don’t trust kids … Our own mini joker now sat up , staring at me , and I could almost see the cogs in her brain working . ” Wiyam make me sad . ” She stated , her eyes blurring with tears all over again .

” And Liam is sorry , I just miss seeing my beautiful baby sister’s face without this ” I said gently , the urge to wash make – up . her face was hard to fight . ” But Wiyam like Waven wearing make – up . ”

She sobbed . ” But my sister is more beautiful . Look , Mom , Kiara and Raven wear make – up because they are getting older and ugly . ” Please don’t kill me , ladies . ” But you don’t need it , because you are a P. beautiful princess . You don’t need make – u ” I said as she wiped her eyes , smearing the make –

up over her hands . ” I tell Mama that . ” She promised , looking so sorrowful my heart squeezed .

Goddess , kids are hard .. ” It won’t be our secret ? ” ” No , Mama say never keep secrets from Mama .

If anyone make me sad or upset , n o secrets .

I tell Mama now . Phone Mama ! ” I nodded , quickly taking my phone out and video – calling Mom . I’m sure it was still day over there . Sure enough , they answered , the sun shining down on them both , and I could see Mom and Dad were lounging on the beach . ” Baby girl ! ” Mom said , her smile vanishing when she saw Azura’s face . ” Mama ! Liam no like my make – up ! ” ” Fuck … ” Dad commented , trying to suppress his smile . ” Oh my baby … Why don’t you take it off and Raven can apply something pretty and pink ? ” Mom suggested .

” Raven is not here … ” I reminded her ” Then you can ” Pink sparkly make – up ? ” Azera asked hopefully . ” I no see any pink ” ” Yes , Liam will put some pretty pink make -up on you , ok ? I’m sure there’s something there , ok ? ” Mom replied , smiling ” Ok Mama ! Liam said you and Waven are ugly with no make – up . ” She added quickly . I narrowed my eyes , I’m sure she just said ‘ Liam ‘ correctly .

This kid was shady . ” I will sort Liam out when I come home , now go wash your face and Liam put some glittery make – up on her , ok ?

” ” Right . ” I sighed in defeat . This was going to be a long evening An hour later , I had wiped her face clean , taken the roast out of the oven and put the sliced steak fries into the oil before I was once again in front of Raven’s make – up table . I had salvaged what I could from her palettes that Azura had dug in to and I was currently putting make – up on her face . Raven had mind linked not long ago , telling me she was close and would be home soon . ” No Wiyam , you use this one . “

She said , pointing to a glittery royal blue . 11 ” No , I think this pink is nicer .. The tears were beginning , and I quickly dabbed the brush into the blue glitter and patted it lightly onto her eyes . ” Ok , now lipstick , Wiyam . ” ” I nodded and adding some lipstick lightly . Raven’s make – up was dark … I realise Kiara used to have a lot of pinks and glitters in comparison to Raven’s , which were so much darker .

This girl … Well , she had to go and touch Raven’s stuff . I sighed , I hope Raven didn’t get mad …. We finished with some gold polish and I felt drained . This was worse than ten hours of extreme training …

We left the bedroom and I looked at . Azura , who was now smiling contently . ” Ok , now you watch TV and I’ll go set the table , Raven will be back soon . ” ” You pomised me coke and sweets . ” I looked down at the little gremlin , she sure knew how to get what she wanted . I poured a little coke into a glass alongside a small fun size pack of chocolates .

She needed to have dinner . I returned to the kitchen , this time making sure I kept my eyes on her , not trusting her to wander off again . When Raven finally opened the door , her scent hit me like a wave of calmness . I walked over to her before she even managed to put the bags down , pulling her into my arms and lifting her off the ground as I spun her around . Goddess , I fucking missed her . ” Liam ! ”

She exclaimed , dropping the bags as she locked her arms around my neck . ” Thank goddess you’re home . ” Pulling her head down , I kissed her with everything I had . The tingles of the bond and the feel of her ever so soft lips against mine felt so fucking good that all I wanted to do was pin her up against the wall and never let her go . ” Waven ! ”

Azura said and I pulled away , thinking we only had a few weeks left … W e got this ! ” Wow , you look so beautiful ! ” Raven cooed as she gave me a final smile , her gaze lingering on my lips before she pulled Azura into her arms . turned i to ” Thank you , Waven . ” Her eyes me , and I knew from the spark in those blue ones that she was ready to complain about me . ” Liam was a meanie !

” The tears began flowing and I shut the door , wanting to bang my head against it . Goddess , I know you wanted the Deimos line to live on , but let me live a few years o r a decade in peace … without any kids . Please . Dinner was over and Raven had put Azura to bed . I had just washed up and dropped onto the sofa . ” Tired ?

” Raven asked sympathetically , stepping out of Azura’s bedroom wearing a black silk cami and those tiny shorts , with an open gown on top . ” Not that tired … ” I said , my eyes trailing over her . She smiled in amusement , coming over and walking behind the sofa , placing her hands on my shoulders before she began massaging them .

I closed my eyes , groaning in satisfaction . ” You’re tense ? It’s hard to believe one toddler did this . ”

She bent forward , kissing my lips as I stared up at her . ” 1 ” That one is not just an ordinary pup . ”

said . ” Oh … She kinda ruined some of your make – up … Maybe you could buy replacements ? ” ” I saw , they’re not that ruined ; they’re o k , still useable . ” She reassured me , kissing my neck . ” But it seems my Alpha has been rather stressed . How about I take good care of you ? “

I hardened in my pants , her hand running down my chest as she placed sensual kisses along my neck . ” I think I’d like that . ” I tangled my hand into her hair , pulling her down just as her hand cupped my crotch , sending pleasure flowing through me . But before I could flip her over my shoulder into my lap , the guest room door opened with a creak and Raven jerked away as Azura appeared in the doorway , clearly sleepy , all dressed in her penguin onesie holding a matching penguin plushie in her hand . ”

Waven , I’m scared . ” “

Raven ” Aw baby , don’t worry , come on . cooed hurrying over to her , leaving me with just a reminder of her scent and a view of her ass before she cast me an apologetic look , closing the door behind them . I stretched my arms over the top of the sofa , resting my head back as I stared at the ceiling .

Yep , definitely no kids for a few years .

Twenty minutes later I decided to go check if Azura was asleep . Opening the door , I stopped in the doorway seeing both fast asleep snuggled together . I smiled slightly , ok maybe kids weren’t s o bad . I walked over to the bed , slowly pulling the blanket over them , and planting a kiss on both of their foreheads before I left the room closing the door behind me . Moonlight Muse
