NovelBookChapter 0366 - Josie - "Just slow down...he might have been lying." Knox's hand moves from the car's gear stick and on to my upper thigh.
No doubt he could sense my wolf, she was pushing against me. It was like she was biting down on a bone and wanted more. She wasn't willing to give up until she knew everything. Until she knew enough to satisfy her curiosity about this claim of family being out there that we had no clue even existed.
I was already sitting too forward, my face almost pressed against the dashboard. I had been constantly moving, Knox using the terms "ants in my pants" as I kept shifting in my chair. I just couldn't get comfortable, I couldn't relax.
"Can you calm her because my wolf is close to shifting and if I crash this car, with us in it...your parents really will kill me. Besides, he was probably lying." Knox's hand gently squeezes my upper thigh. His tone close to a command. In all that has happened over the past few days I've still not asked Knox about his past, about how he healed from the wounds Jaxon inflicted onto him. I'm still certain he has alpha blood within his veins, that there is a power behind his commands.

With the pack link now in place, I was able to warn the guards on the gate ahead of our return meaning we wouldn't need to stop. I also gave them the heads up that the car behind was friendly, and didn't need to be treated as suspicious.
As we enter through the gates, the warriors behind spin the car around and head, I presume, back to the restaurant.
Knox barely pulls the car to a halt before I'm already out of the door, him growling my nbehind me. Blasting through the front door I find them sitting together in the living room, watching the TV.
"Do we have an uncle?" I blurt out, desperate to get the question out. I meant, another unknown uncle....because of course we have uncles.
"Where's Romeo?" Jaxon glances his eyes over his shoulder before turning back to the screen.
"Right here! Did your warriors report it to you?" Knox's hand rub at my shoulders, his touch trying to calmdown.
"Report what?" Dad pauses the film they were watching and turns to us, his tired gaze falling upon us.
"Where are the warriors?" He looks behind us, towards the front door.
"They are still at the restaurant. A male..." "A male cup toand claimed to be my uncle, claimed to be our uncle." My finger points to the three is us, the triplets.

It was unlike the two of them to argue, but as Dad cuts the link and stands...Mum grips him by the arm and pulls him back. "No Hector." "He dared to go near our daughter?" Dad's eyes turn a shade of red, anger firing up within him.
"Alora is still here." She seethes out, under her breath but I hear it with this new super enhanced hearing of mine. Before, I would have struggled to hear that.
"Will someone please tellwhat is going on?" I take a further stepm towards my parents their Coded conversation was doing nothing to ease my rising frustration. "Was he telling the truth?" "Hector..." Mum's eyes hold panic within them, something I've never seen in them before.
"We knew this day might cmy love. I can't protect Alora anymore, not at the cost of our children. Dad's cost hand cups the side of Mum's face before it trails down and lands on his mate mark upon her neck.
Mum sighs out, her body leaning into his touch. Their mate bond still to this day beating strongly, an om undeniable force between them that I always longed for myself as a child, until I gave up on ever having that. Until now.
