The Silent Alpha
Chapter 30: Mistakes
***Zanet**
My eyes flutter open to find Natalia nestled up by my side, her head resting on my shoulder and her nose buried in my neck.She drapes her left arm over my chest while tucking her left leg over my thigh.
To my right, I feel Kota curled up under my arm, snoring lightly in his sleep as he clutches his little wolf tightly to his chest.
For a moment, I remain perfectly still, afraid the mirage would fade away if I moved.
The sparks tingling across my body from Talia’s touch, however, make me realize I’m not dreaming at all, both my mate and our pup nestled safely in my arms.
This must be what heaven feels like... I tell myself as my heart beats uncontrollably in my chest.
It feels so natural to hold them in my arms, as if they were always meant to be with me.
Kota suddenly stirs, sitting up on his knees and glancing around the room in confusion.
Messy hairs stick out from his head and his pajamas are all rumpled and crooked.
He wipes his tired eyes and looks up at me with a grin.
"I’m hungry," he yawns, stretching out his little arms.
He lays his head on my stomach and gives me puppy eyes.
"Can we make waffles, Zane?"
I smile at him, afraid to move and disturb Talia in her sleep.
It to me and then roll her to her side to free myself from her grasp.
My heart beats frantically as she stirs before she settles into her new spot comfortably, sighing contently in her sleep.
I help Kota brush his teeth and wash his face before we head into the kitchen where I spend a couple of minutes watching videos on my phone on how to make waffles.
Kota is practically dancing on his toes with excitement as I gather ingredients for his breakfast.
"Can I help you?" he asks eagerly, picking up a whisk with a cheeky grin.
"Auntie Gwen lets me help her.Can I please help you?"
His puppy eyes make it incredibly difficult to say no and I put a chair against the counter for him to stand on before placing the mixing bowl in front of him.
I hand measuring cups filled with ingredients to Kota, the little boy happily pouring them into the bowl and repeating the measurements out loud to me.
Placing my hand over his, I guide his little hand through the motion of whisking the ingredients together until we have a nice batter.
I pull out the waffle iron, staring at the infernal contraption until I finally figure out how to turn it on.
"Can I pour?" Kota asks as we both look at the iron.
I give him a measuring cup with some batter and steady him up over the counter while he pours.
"Oopsies..." he gasps as some of the batter spills over the counter.
"I'm sorry, Zane." a beating and a week with no visits from Mom.
The little boy hides his batter covered fingers behind his back, unsure what my reaction will be to his mistake.I never want him to be afraid of me...
"I-It's o-kay," I smile, closing the iron and sitting Kota on the chair.I cup his cheeks, not wanting him to feel like he is in trouble for making a mistake.
"A-a-accidents happen. We j-just ha-have to c-clean it up, o-okay?"
I hand him a towel and help him wipe the counter, high-fiving him when the mess is all gone.
As I flip the waffle iron over to cook the other side, Kota taps me on my shoulder.
"Zane," he says timidly, looking up at me with his large blue and brown eyes.
"Are you my daddy?"
My entire body stiffens but Grayson is more than willing to respond.Say yes, he grumbles.He belongs to us just as much as Talia.He’s ours.
The question, however, can only be answered by Talia.
"I- l-like you and your m-mommy very m-much," I reply with a nervous smile.
"B-but I don’t know what I-I am to you yet."
"I know what you are," He giggles.
"You’re a wolf."
He bursts out into a howl.
"Can I be a wolf like you?" I don’t want him to be a wolf like me...
A wolf who struggles to speak, a wolf who makes too many mistakes, a wolf who will inevitably always fail.
