Ryley
I was just finishing up with the cheesecake when Blake walked out
of our bedroom. He was dressed in navy slacks and a white
dress shirt. The top few buttons were undone and the sleeves
were rolled up. Lily started to purr as I checked him out. Are we going to dinner or the bedroom? He walked over to me and pulled me against his chest.
“Stop looking at me like that or we are never going down for dinner,” he growled against
my ear, sending heat to my core.
"Or you can bend me over the counter. I'm sure we can be a little late,” I purred, kissing his neck. His "We are already late, baby. And if my parents weren't waiting, I would say fuck it.” He grumbled and “Don't look at me like that.” He chuckled.
“You have all night to make it up to me,” I told him.
"And I intend to,” he mumbled, kissing my neck. I whimpered as he took my hand and led me out of “It won't be that bad, I promise.” He reassured me as we
walked down the stairs, hand in hand. I wanted to believe him, but the closer we walked to the din more my stomach twisted.
As soon as we walked into the dining room, my stomach was in my

throat as the alpha table was full of people and the only seat
left was Blake's. The women at the table had a smug look on their faces as we approached the table “Mom, you can have my seat,” Channing offered.
“Yeah, we can go sit with our friends,” Aspen said.
“It's fine, your mother can sit with me,” Blake said. He pulled out his chair and sat down before pullin "What are you doing?” I linked him. He wrapped his arms around my waist as I wrapped mine around his neck.
“Proving a point.” He rubbed his nose against mine before his lips brushed against my lips.
“Son, is that really necessary?” His mother scoffed.
“It is, Mother. She is mine and you didn’t save her a seat. So, she will sit with me.” Blake
defended me. The look on his mother's face was priceless.
Gwen was sitting beside his mother with I believe
her parents. The conversation had picked up but I wasn't listening
as Blake nibbled on my shoulder. This man was driving me crazy.
“Son, do you have to do that in front of everyone,” His mother scolded him.
“It's better than the kitchen,” I heard Aspen.
“That's for sure,” Blair said under his breath.
“I do, Mother. It would seem that some of you didn’t get
the message about my relationship with Ryley and I'm just making it crystal clear.

He announced.
“But in front of the boys?” She exclaimed.
“It's nothing we haven't seen, grandma,” Aspen said.
"Dear, if you didn't want to see it, you should have saved Ryley a seat to sit with her family,” Blair def Isabelle walking in with Aiden. She hadn't texted me back and I wanted to speak with her.
“I'm going to speak with Isabelle.” I linked Blake. He looked over to see where I was
looking. He gave me a nod.
“Will you excuse me?” I announced to the table. Before I could stand from Blake's lap, he
gripped my neck, crushing his lips to mine. This public show of affection was not
something I was used to, or
comfortable with. But it pissed his mother off so I was happy to kiss Blake back.
“I'll be right back,” I whispered to Blake
after he ended the kiss. He left me breathless, as I stood up from his lap and walked toward Isabelle. me the entire time as I made my way to Isabelle’s
table.
"Isabelle, Aiden, it's good to see you,” I said as I approached the table.
“Ryley it's good to see you,” Aiden said, while Isabelle looked on the verge of tears.
“Can I speak to you?” I asked her. She hesitated before nodding. Aiden kissed her cheek before she stood up. We walked around a few tables before we were standing off to the side of the dining room.
“Ryley, I,” she stammered, But I pulled her in for a hug.

“It wasn't your fault. Please
don't blame yourself,” I mumbled and she let out a sob before she nodded against my shoulder. “Let's make plans to have dinner next week. After a shopping trip. Blake helped me pack
up my house so everything was donated.” I told her and she chuckled. She pulled
away, wiping away some fallen tears.
“You two are so cute together,” she giggled.
"Just like you and Aiden,” I smiled. We said our goodbyes with the plan to meet up next
week. She walked back to Aiden as I watched Blake deal with
the people at our table. I should go back and save him but it was his mother.
I heard a mother shushing her crying baby. I looked around to find
a young mother trying to eat, calm down the baby she was holding, and feed a toddler. She didn't h: tell she was getting frustrated. Instead of walking
back to my table, I walked over to the mother who needed a helping hand.
"Excuse me, is everything alright?” I asked, approaching her. Before she
answered, her young daughter blew bubbles in her chocolate milk, making a mess. I held down my chuckle.
"Yes," she sighed.
"Here, let me take the baby. You can eat and feed your daughter.” I offered. She handed me a burpin handing me the newborn. I couldn't help but coo at the tiny face looking up at me.
“Thank you.” The woman breathed out.
“It's no problem. I'm Ryley.” I introduced myself, as I
bounced the baby. I missed these days with Channing.
“I'm Katy and this is my mommy,” the little girl announced.
