Chapter 44: Chasing Chasity’s Parents Felix I was gonna do this thing the way I did everything according to sockstarch Alex: "with all the subtle of a large bull sneaking out of a small China shop." "Ok, gents!"l said, clapping my hands.

"I handled s**t, man that I am, by promising my Baby, Madar Chasity, that we would trackdown her shitty parents and bring them to her alive or kill the motherfucke who killed them if we find out they're dead." Calix looked dumbfounded but he always looked like that so it was fine.

He was just processing the sentence.

I had used adjectives and whatnot so he would need some time.

Alex glared at me and then relaxed his expression.

This was a bad sign.

He was about to wash his hands of it.

"I'm confused," said Alex, lying.

He was never confused.

That was anti-Alex.

Confusion was a Calix thing.

"You said you promised your Baby something but then you said we when talking about your upcoming investigation," mused Alex, stroking his chin.

I called his bluff.

"Don’t help then.

I'll just do it alone.

Even if I die trying to find out what happened to Chasity's parents, Chasity will never stopobsessing over it," I said nonchalantly.

"She'll also never forget that you two didn't help.

In fact, let's all go tell her right now that you two aren't interested in helping me achieve her dream of reuniting with her parents.

Let her know you're just interested in pounding her p***y not in her long-awaited dreams or actual personality or anything..."

Alex cut across me,"That is completely unfair and you know it, Felix! Do you think we're stupid? Your manipulation isn't that hard to unmask! You put us in a position where we can't say no without risking losing Chasity whether she runs away to do it herself or shuts herself off because we don't do it for her!" Yelled Alex, his eyes darkening as his wolf raged within.

I shrugged.

"Yeah," I admitted.

"So are you gonna tell her you don't want to or should I?" I asked again.

"I never said I didn't want to.

You two don't speak for me," said Calix bluntly.

I was, as the kids say, "shook." I leant all the way back as I looked at Calix.

He was kinda commanding respect these days.

Chasity had made a man out of him.

"You want to?" Asked Alex, softening, as he looked at Calix.

"You don't?" Asked Calix, shocked, looking at Alex.

Alex sighed.

"Of course I want to help Chasity," admitted Alex.

"But whoever her parents were running from...they thought them too powerful even for their Alpha and Luna to help."

"We are much better warriors than Dad," I said brazenly.

It was true.

He taught us how to fight but we had a knack for it separately, and together, we were unstoppable.

We were so well connected.

Essentially, each of us had three vantage points in every battle.

Alex shrugged.

"I say that with love," I added.

It was time to pour some honey on this situation.

"And I love Chasity so much.

And I love you, Alex, as meticulous as you are and you, Calix, as Mommy struck as you are," I said, Calix rolled his eyes, Alex pressed his lips together, "I love you and Calix and I’m in love with Chasity and I don't want the fiends, who probably did kill Chasity's parents, coming back and targeting Chasity," growled Alex, speaking with his wolf so that his voice was much deeper, "And we'll wipe the floor with them if they do," I said confidently, adding my wolf to the mix so that my voice was just as deep, Calix's wolf was chilling "Let's do it," said Calix with a shrug.

"It's better to draw out these people if they're our Luna’s enemies and deal with them." I nodded eagerly at Baby Boy Calix as he was speaking facts.

"Essentially what you're saying is you promised Chasity that we'd track down her parents if they're alive or kill her parents’ killer to avenge their deaths ifthey're dead," said Alex, nodding and laying it out on the table.

"Sounds like a cool movie plot.

I like it," said Calix encouragingly, "Yeah, I promised her that because it’s what she wants most andwhat we want most is her.

Until the chapter with her parents has some kind of conclusion on it, she won’t be fully present in the relationship,” (explained.

Alex and Calix exchanged a glance and then looked at me with wide surprised eyes.

I knew they were shocked to hear me analyse Chasity.

I secretly watched human talk shows like Oprah.

I knew about investment in relationships.

They should give me more credit.

After a long silence, Calix said, "I think we should do it.

We owe her that much, but how are we going to get Mom to be ok with this?" "We don't need to tell her!"l grumbled immediately.

Just when Calix had earned my respect, he brought up getting Mom's approval.

"We might, yeah," said Alex.

"Well need more information on Chasity's parents like who their old friends are, where their oldhaunts are." s't.

Alex was right.

We had no leads.

We didn't know so't about Chasity's parents.

We could probably get a few helpful details from Chasity but she had been just nine years old the last time she saw her parents.

She might not remember that much.

She also might not know certain things, adult things, things her parents would have kept from her, details our parents might have known.

We could go after some old pack busybodies but Mom was sitting on the most knowledge when it came to her estranged stepbrother and his wife.

"Calix, are you willing to sweet-taik Mom into being ok with this?" I asked.

He was the apple of Mom's eye but Chasity was a thorn in Mom's side.

She would want to help Calix but not Chasity but it was still worth a shot.

She had to get with the program sooner or later.

Chasity was ours and we were hers.

The deal was sealed with our marks.

"Don't tell her about the avenging their deaths part if they've been murdered! Just tell herabout the finding out what happened for Chasity's peace of mind part," Alex explained.

Calix nodded.
