Chapter 8: Meet the Parents

When she arrived home, Serena found that Olivia and Oliver were already in bed. Dana had already tu

cked them in and read to them. Serena was a little relieved that she could sit down and rest her feet. S

he was looking forward to quietly contemplating the

events at the hospital. Sometimes, it was hard to go back to being a mother after seeing so much blood

and tragedy. After stitching up Logan, she‘d helped the nurses in the emergency room, making sure th

e rest of the wounded were patched up and had had what they needed. It was a great entrance into her

life as a pack doctor, but

it had been exhausting! Serena kicked her shoes off and hunger her stethoscope by the door. Dana wa

s

in the kitchen with a warm cup of tea waiting for her. “Thank you,” she said, accepting the tea and takin

g a seat at the table. “Fortunately, there were no fatalities. Beta Carson was wounded pretty badly, but

he will recover.” “That is great to hear,” Dana said. “How

were the kids?” she asked. Dana smiled, wiping down the kitchen countertop. “Wonderful,” she said. “O

livia is so full of life, and Oliver is so wise behind his quietness.” Serena smiled, sipping the tea. “They a

re great,” she said. “If there is nothing else you need from me tonight, I‘d like to get settled in downstair

s,” Dana said. “Yes, of course,” Serena said, motioning for Dana to leave the

kitchen. She sat alone in the silence, sipping her tea and thinking about her interaction with the Alpha.

He had

been so stubborn to accept medical care! She figured most Alphas had to be stubborn, but to think his

own health was less important than another‘s? Serena

shook her head. He was going to challenge her, especially since she was trying to

keep their past a secret! There hadn‘t been any fatalities in the hospital, but a lot of the pack

members had been wounded. Serena felt bad for the families that had been worried. She didn‘t

even know if Carson had a family, a mate or pups. To think

that they had to suffer through almost losing him and not knowing if he was going to live or die while he‘

d been in surgery. Sighing, Serena began to wonder

what would happen to her kids if something were to happen to her. She didn‘t have a.mate; they didn‘t

know who her father was. All she had were her parents and her brother, and they didn‘t know about the

twins. li made her heart sink, thinking the twins would be left all alone if anything were to happen to her.

Even if she was injured and had to be in the hospital for recovery, they would be alone. Serena decide

d that it would be better to tell her parents about the kids. She wanted them to meet their grandparents,

and it would mean she could keep the kids away

from Logan when he came by to give her a tour the next day. Serena had wanted

to protest because she didn‘t want him around her house and seeing the twins. If they were with her pa

rents, they‘d

be far away. Serena finished her tea, washed out her mug, and went to bed, happily falling asleep utterl

y exhausted! In the morning, Serena woke up to find that both the twins had crawled into bed with her.

Stretching her arms out, she grabbed one in each arm and hugged them too her. Olivia and Oliver giggl

ed and squirmed as she kissed their heads. “Mommy!” Oliva protested. Serena smiled and released th

em. “How would the two of you like to meet someone special?” she asked. Olivia‘s whole face lit up in a

smile. Oliver looked more thoughtful. “I want to, I want to!” Olivia cheered. Serena looked at Oliver. He

smiled and nodded finally.

“Good, go get dressed,” she said. The kids ran off to their respective rooms. Serena got dressed

and went downstairs to find that Dana had already made breakfast. Olivia

ran down first, grabbing her juice and

digging into her pancakes. When Oliver came down the stairs, he only had one sock on, and his left pa

nt leg was dangling off his foot. Serena stifled her giggle and went

over to help her son get his clothes on the right way. “There you

go,” she said, patting his head once his pants were straight and his sock was on. “Eat up.” “I made you

some coffee too,” Dana said, handing Serena a mug. Serena smiled and sat with

her kids. “I‘m going to be taking the kids with me to meet my

parents,” she told Dana. “I‘d like them to spend some time together today.” “Alright, I‘ve got plenty to do

around here, and I‘ve got a few errands to run,” Dana explained. Serena

nodded and finished her coffee. She loaded the twins into the car and headed to her parents‘ house. It

was a bit of a drive, but it was early enough, she

could make good time. She had a sing along CD playing for the twins, and she thought about what she

would tell her parents when she saw them. Thomas and

Charlotte still lived in the house that Serena had grown up in.

Taking a deep breath, Serena led her twins to the front porch, knocking on the door and waiting. “Seren

a!?” her mother said excitedly, running out onto the porch and hugging her. “We‘ve missed you! How ar

e you settling in at Night Sky?” Serena hugged her mother back. “I missed you too,” she said. “Mom, I h

ave…” she didn‘t get to finish because her mother released her only to be replaced by her

father‘s rough hug. “You‘re all grown up, aren‘t you?” he asked. Serena laughed, sighing

into her father‘s hug. When he let her go, her parents noticed the twins for the first time. “Mom, dad, the

se are my children, Olivia and Oliver,” she said, touching them on the heads. Her parents both stared at

her with dumbfounded looks. Clearing his throat, her father stepped back. “Let‘s go inside,” he said cur

tly. Her mother and father disappeared inside, and Serena followed, urging her kids along. Serena sat i

n her parents‘ living room. They sat together on the couch staring at her, and she sat

in a chair across from them. Olivia and Oliver

were standing on each side of her. It was silent, too

silent. She could see that her father was mad. “I‘m sorry I didn‘t tell you,” Serena said, breaking the sile

nce. “Serena, you kept this a secret from us for five years!” her father bellowed, glaring at her. Serena‘s

mother sniffled and sighed, tears glistening on her cheeks. “It was cruel of you to keep our own grandc

hildren hidden;” Charlotte said, sniffling again. Serena suppressed her eye roll. Her parents‘ pain was j

ustified. “Olivia, Oliver, why

don‘t you go play outside,” Serena suggested, nodding to the double doors off

the living room. There is a huge yard out there.” “Come on, Oliver,” Olivia said, taking her brother‘s han

d. “Mom just wants to talk about

things she doesn‘t want us to hear.” Serena sighed, shaking her head as the twins departed. “They‘re s

mart,” Serena said, smiling sheepishly at her parents. “So, it would seem,” Thomas said, still a little gruf

fly. “I‘m sorry I hid them from you,” she said. “The truth is, I didn‘t want to reveal them to the world.”

“Why, honey?” Charlotte asked. “They are beautiful, and you know we‘d love them and help you with th

em. You lived in the human world with them, going to classes. We could have helped with that.” “I know

,” Serena said, holding up her hands in surrender. “It wasn‘t easy, but we go through it. I know I should

have told you, but there were…reasons not to.”

“What possible reasons could you have for hiding the existence of

your kids from us for five years?” Thomas asked with a slight sneer. Serena hated being the target

of her father‘s anger. She swallowed nervously. “Well…the truth is…

I was ashamed,” she admitted. “Ashamed of what, dear?” Charlotte

asked, sliding to the edge of the couch and giving Serena a sympathetic look. Serena folded her hands

I was ashamed because…because I don‘t know who their father is,”

Serena blurted out the first

thing that came to mind that made sense. She looked down at her hands, waiting for her parents to bera

for

promiscuity and not practicing safe sex. After all, they were her parents, and it was their right. Slowly, re
