Chapter Sixty-Seven: Bears, wolves, and peach cobbler
The four of us got dressed, Jason holding Ryan for Travis while he pulled on the oversized flannel shirt and shorts. They were
Scott’s clothing and they seemed to swallow my mate’s slim forms. It was a small gesture, but it made me feel like maybe mom
and Scott were warming up to the idea that I was with Jason, Ryan, and Travis and very soon! would be with Gideon too. I knew
that it was more than likely that my mom hadn’t wanted to see everyone naked. But I liked to think that maybe they were coming
to terms with everything.
Travis finished buttoning up his shirt before he looked over at me. “It was nice of them to put clothing out for us. Think that
means they like us?”
I smiled, nodding at him. It made me feel good to see those stacks of clothing. Reaching down, I picked up the pile of clothing
that my parents had left out for me. I didn’t need them, but after a hot shower, I would put them on. My body ached and a shower
sounded like one of the best things in the world. Well, that and something to eat.
My stomach growled and I realized that all I’d had today was a cup of coffee and a few sips of sweet tea. Gideon moved over to
me, the big green and black flannel shirt hanging off his shoulders. He raised his hand, reaching out to touch me before shaking
his head and dropping his hand to the side.

“What’s wrong?” I asked, worried that I had done something to make him not want to touch me
“I just, I don’t know if I’ll be able to control myself if I touch you.” He said, looking down and biting his lower lip. “I know we still
need to go in there and I just... I don’t want to make a bad impression with your parents.”
“Gideon.” I said, wishing that I could say something to comfort him. I wished that I could take him into my arms but he wasn’t like
my other mates. He didn’t seem as in control of himself as they did and I wondered if that had to do with him being an omega?
From what Thad gathered from the conversations of today, he wasn’t used to holding back from pleasure. Giving or receiving it
and right now, we needed to go in there and deal with my parents before sexy times could start.
I went to take a step closer to him, to close the distance between us and his eyes shot up to my face. He shook his head, a look
of panic filling his face. “No, Tillie. I-“.
“It can’t be any worse than our meeting with them.” Jason said and I looked over, shooting him a smile. He was trying to lighten
the mood. It wasn’t working, but I appreciated it all the same.
Gideon looked over at Jason, swallowing hard before nodding. “You’re right, but I’d rather not chance it.”

I took a step past Gideon. I wanted to touch him, but it could wait until we had more time. Making my way over to the door, I let
out a sigh before pushing it open and stepping into the house. My mates close behind me. The smell of meat cooking hit me and
my mouth watered. Garlic and pepper mixed with the smell and I heard Travis let out a groan behind me. There was another
smell, though, a sweet smell that made me worried. My stomach rolled and I hoped that maybe it was just something wrong with
my nose.

“That smells fucking amazing.”
“Language, young man.” Scott chided from the living room; he was sitting on the recliner. He shifted around, looking at me and I
could see the moment he realized that I was okay. How his massive shoulders seemed to fold in and he let out a long breath.
“Kiddo.”
“Scott.” I said, swallowing hard. There were so many things that I wanted to say to him but I didn’t know how I was going to say
it. The relationship with both of my parents had changed so much and it scared me.
“I’m glad you’re okay, Tillie.” He said, moving to stand. He winced, looking over towards the kitchen. “Your mom has been
cooking... She made cobbler.”
Oh no. Mom was a good cook, but baking wasn’t something that she could do. At best, her cakes and cobblers were mushy and
overly sweet.
“Is she upset?” I asked, worrying the inside of my cheek with my teeth.
“A bit, but she was more worried about you than anything.” He said and I nodded. Scott looked at Ryan, his lips pressing into a
thin line as his brown eyes squinted slightly. “That one okay?”
“Yes, he just needs some rest. I could force the shift but it would wake him.” Jason said and my stepdad nodded. “Lucky kid.”
“Cobbler? That sounds amazing.” Travis said, shifting Ryan into his arms. He had taken him back from Jason after he had gotten
dressed. “Ryan will be upset he missed out.”
Scott and I shared a look and I winced. “Jewel isn’t much of a baker. She means well though, so pretend to like it.”
“It smells good.” Gideon said. His voice was soft and Scott looked over at him. His head tilted to the side as he studied the wolf
beside Jason.

“You’re from Branson’s pack?”
“He was,” Jason spoke up. “He’s ours now.” .
