Chapter 8 - CHAPTER 8:TENSE REUNION lll( SCARY AUNT LAYLA)

SORRY FOR NOT BEING FOR A WHILE NOW... A LOT HAS BEEN GOING ON WITH ME BUT I AM NOW HERE TO STAY

.............:.......................:::

"He said that he will pass the offer, he wouldn't want to waste his magical strength for the sake of trying to argue with your auntie-like personality saying it'll be more honorable for that to be passed down to psy when Sirius shows up"

Kyle said covering his mouth while giggling lightly 

[hmm I should have known that you will make it sound dramatic]

A complaining haughty ancient manly voice sounded in Kyle head

"Prideful and shameless as always…. Typical Zato "

Aunt Layla snorted 

 Raising her left arm looking into her wrist inter-com fingers moving on the screen like she is typing...

Turning her attention back to Kyle after she was done with her gadget, seated on the bed beside the sofa Kyle was now seating on she staring at Kyle Affectionately her left hand cupping Kyle cheek 

"You brother will be here soon"

"Hopefully it will be a reunion that I will be pleased with Alpha Kyle, and mama Maya will be very greatful if this reunion will be so peaceful"

"I want my kids back together please Kyle, I want you guys back together, if you do this for me I will forever be greatful, I still remember like it was yesterday when you guys where just pups though you all had your differences, you always have that brotherly bond that keeps you together, I've almost feared on that day you beat your brother, I feared that… that bond might get brokk..broken"

Tears slipping down her chic while she fervently beg her nephew to reignite the flame of the bond 

"Come on aunt why are you making it seem as if we've been at war for millennials"

kyle stood up from the sofa and Walked towards the mirror in the room

"besides Sirius and I have been in contact and from our few conversations in the past I can still feel that he is still unhappy with me but I don't sense any sign of hostility from him, you know the kid is quite stubborn but I must say that he has grown so

matured lately Maybe this also comes with his fame"

layla stood up and walk towards Kyle

" Please Kyle"

Kyle hugged while reassuring her that he will never abandon his little brother regardless of his hot headedness.

(Ding Dong Ding Dong)

"Umm who might that be, I'm not expecting anyone, and who will be their right senses to ring on the gate if I didn't summon them"

"Or is Sirius here already, so quick"

Disengaging from the hug Kyle went back to seat on one of the Couch by the side of his bed.

Layla answered him saying 

"Ohh that must be Michael, I sent him a message earlier asking him to bring me the sanitary Robot "

"Do you want to add more to the collection of those stupid robots in your house? Didn't you order for a new one to be delivered to you last week after the company made a new supply? Why are you even ordering for more?"

Kyle asked startled by how much effort Layla put in purchasing this robot,

'Is she using them for some robot ritual or something I don't know about'

[what a dumb question and shouldn't it be delivered to her doorsteps instead of here if I may ask? Sometimes I don't know why the lunarich have me stuck with you without a brain, she is ordering it for you for us, for God's know what dummy!!]

Ignoring Zato foul words

Kyle mind went through some phase of question that he found strange, with Zato conclusions that the robot was meant for them,

but for what? 

They don't know yet..

All this mental conversation didn't take upto two seconds…

Then Kyle asked 

"Wait aunt, shouldn't it be delivered it to your doorstep instead? Why bring it here, such a stress?" 

" can't you ask one question at a time and when did I said It was for me"

" you know, Your brother will be here soon, I don't want the impression he will have of you to be bad one after being apart from each other for a long time so all you alcohol will be kept safe for you for now"

Kyle stood up hurriedly from where he was seating

"Huh? Aunt, is that necessary, and beside you don't need to waste you time in doing this, you know it my house I can always clear out what you don't seem fit to be here"

He tried persuade her from trying to clear his bar, because he knows that if that's was done then he won't get to see them again…

"No, oh mighty Alpha! May Goddess lunarich curse me on the day I will let you do such lowly chores"

layla reply came with high sense of sarcasm in it

"you don't fool me young man.. don't worry dear I will keep them safe for you"

they both know that the safety thingy she is talking about is nonexistent when it comes to her interest in his way of living so Kyle just gave up the idea of trying to ask her out of it, after all he can always refill his bar to the brim..

"And you think the safest place in the whole RAINWOODs to keep them is the sanitary robot how nice of you aunt, you never cease to impress me with your safe keeping skills, 

and having those alcohol being kept in a trash Bin has rendered it the greatest security in the whole of this vile woods…. Thank you very much Epsilon Layla?"

sarcastically thanking his aunt for her great generosity..

"You are always welcome dear nephew, your aunt is always here to take care of you as always"

"You know I'm doing this for your good right?"

"How do you mean? I'm a werewolf for fuck sake aunt"

"Language!!!!"

Layla Reprimanded him

"Sorry"

" why do you men tend to always run away from you problems, you all love to avoid reality, by getting highed up either one way or the other.... cowards, and I'm sure you are not one of them cowards, so better behave"

(Ding dong Ding dong)

"What's wrong with this guy? I thought I gave him all the instructions when I sent him a message earlier"

like a flip on a switch, Layla mood morph from being the sweetest "auntie Layla" into being the "no nonsense Epsilon Layla"

in a jiffy.

And with the sour mood she ringed Michael up..

"Hey moron do you really want to give up your pay for this month to charity"

she thundered micheal with a voice that shows that she is really not happy with his antics

(No No No)

Michael voice came over from the other end of the call hurriedly 

"so Michael are you trying to say that you can't goood at heart to help the poor and needy?"

(That not what I meant, don't misunderstand me Ma, I'm a very cheerful giver, I give for survival but i have decided to take a break this month….. hehehe)

He replied nervously 

"It's seems like you won't be alive for the rest of the Month then,

because if you give for survival then how are you going to live if you decide to take a break? "

"Look before you live you better find me an assistant else I will hunt you to your grave"

(Ma am not even officially your assistant yet) Michael weeper maybe he was trying to clearify that he is not really Layla's assistant but he dare not say it out loud

Buh regardless who was he kidding,werewolf are masters when it comes to hearing but Layla pretend like she heard something else

"do I hear you say something?"

(No No ma... hehe, not at all you heard nothing)

"And why are you still standing outside when I gave you all the instructions to follow"

(Ma this is the Alphas living quarters)

"Soo?"

(ma nobody just wake up oneday in their life to come to the Alpha manor without being ordered by him to come except if the person is tired of living, I was unease when I realized that the address you sent was here so I wanted to make sure of it)

"So are you trying to say that I'm a fool or I didn't know the address I sent to you when I was typing?"

(No No ma, sorry ma!!)

"Get into the compound moron"

(Ma!!)

"Get into the compound idiot, look here moron, you and my stubborn younger nephew has taken a lot of energy from me today, and you'll will be fine for that"

"I will be coming down stair to meet you, and I will need you to operate the machine in clearing out some stuff upstairs "

( ahhh ma, Okay ma'am )

.............................

"Ahhhh that was a relief "

Kyle had a heavy sigh

While following Layla outside the room to take the elevator 

"What?

 "Nothing…. I didn't say anything!!!"

"Spit out what ever you have in your mind now or forever hold you peace Mr Alpha"

"Come on aunt not the cringe nickname again"

Kyle Complained 

"Quit whining and get in"

Layla said while getting into

The elevator and punching on the floor digit that will take them to the down floor 

"Okay I was gonna to say something, I almost thought I lost you there, I was to fight any evil spirit that took over my aunt for your release?!"

"What are pouting about silly"

'such a scary woman'

[I agree with you this once, sometimes I forget she just an Epsilon Rank werewolf]

Zato concord with Kyle.

Layla is one hell of a scary person when the situation calls for it..

Stepping out of the elevator 

the living room unfolds like a scene from a classic tale of old money and quiet elegance—a sanctuary where whispers of family secrets linger in the air. 

the evening sunset streams through tall arched windows draped in flowing silk curtains the color of evening dusk,

In the center, like the throne of a benevolent lord, sits a grand Chesterfield sofa upholstered in buttery leather, its deep button-tufting inviting you to sink into its embrace after a long journey. 

Flanking it are two wingback armchairs, their high backs carved with subtle floral motifs, gathered around a low marble-topped table where a silver tray holds crystal decanters of aged scotch, glinting like hidden treasures.

The walls, paneled in warm walnut and adorned with oil portraits of stern ancestors and past Alpha wolves, frame a massive stone fireplace that dominates the far end. 

Flames dance within its hearth, crackling like the murmur of forgotten legends, warming the room with the scent of burning oak and faint lavender from the fresh-cut roses in a porcelain vase nearby.

Above, a crystal chandelier sways gently, its prisms scattering rainbows like fairy dust across the scene, while built-in bookshelves groan under leather-bound volumes—tomes of adventure, romance, and mystery that beg to be opened. A Persian rug in rich crimson and gold unfurls beneath it all, its intricate patterns weaving tales of distant lands, softening the space into something intimate yet vast.

This gives the feeling of a not too much luxury but make it a place that demands respect from visitors if there ever be one that is bold a enough to pay the Alpha a cashual visit 

"Hail great Alpha, and epsilon Layla"

Kneeling on on kneel at the entrance of the living room With head bow is a man who want to frustrate the living hell out of epsilon Layla's life some moments ago, a young man who seems to be in his earlier thirties
