Oh my gosh! I am so sorry guys, I though I had updated. I didnt even realize I missed a week until three minutes ago. Here is the update! Soooo sorry, but hopefully this will make up for it.

Chapter 9- Thanks William!!!

*Ivory*

Okay, so after the tree process, I felt it drain on me. There is a limit to everything, but my limit had been cut shorted because of all they stuff my old pack had made me do. So when William and I crashed back on my bed, with a pile of peaches, I almost wanted to fall asleep. William had a much different idea. In the middle of a long talk, of him saying that he saw his mom and dad exercising naked. I felt no reason to explain what they were doing. But we laughed, laid on our backs, and staring at the ceiling anyway. In a moment of silence, I felt William lay his head on my shoulder.

"Do your parents exercise naked?" William asked. I laughed slightly.

"I dont know."

"Ivory, where are your parents?" I felt my heart sink.

"They died when I was around your age." I said felling sick.

"So your mom wont ever do your prom hair?" He asked, his big eye staring into me.

"Nope."

"Your dad wont walk you down the isle?" He asked. I felt the lump in my throat grow large.

"Nope, that wont happen" I wasn't sure if I meant, I wont get married, or the fact my dad wont be there.

"Did the people who took care of you hurt you? Did they give you the scars?" He asked, I felt a tear roll down my cheek.

"Yea, they did."

"Did you have to run away? After something really bad happened?" I looked down at William, but he was back to staring at the ceiling fan.

"Yes."

"Do you think they will ever come back to get you?" William asked.

"No, I dont think they will." I said, hoping it was true.

"You sound a lot like Aunt Aria." He said snuggling into my side, Who?

"Who is that?' I asked, he smiled.

"Luna. Her mom and dad were killed in front of her, and then she was put with a bunch of bad people, then one bad person planned on killing her, but he was really mean to her. But she thought that he was after her, you should talk to her. Mom says it helps to talk to someone who hurts as much as you." I felt a tear fall past my eyes, and was clueless as to what I should say.

"Your really smart William." Is what I settled for. William looked up at me, and frowned at me. Sitting up, he whipped away the spare tear, his cute face scrunching up.

"Icecream makes me happy. Want icecream!?!" He asked getting excited, unable to help it, I burst into laughter. Icecream is really good.

"PLEASE!." He folded his little hands, and made a puppy face. I bit my lip. Could anyone say no to that? Or why would anyone want to?.

"I wish I could, but they probably wont let me out." Referring to my mates. Thinking of my mates, put Ivy on my mind, I opened my mind to her, but felt the block. 'Just let me be for a little while'. Her voice flitted through my head, before the barrier was back. I sighed.

"They love you, you know that right?" William asked, I looked down at him with wide eyes.

"Leo and Levi, arn't the ones who took you from your parents. You shouldn't be mean to them. I heard that Alpha's die without their mates. I remember when I was little." I smiled at the fact he said 'when' he was little. "Leo said when he gets his mate, he is going to treat her like the princess she is. Levi said that he is always going to give her compliments. I know they love you because, could you imagine how hard it would be to always come up with compliments? You have to love someone to do that much for them. And Levi is kind of dumb, so its one hundred, trillion, gazillion timed harder for him to think that much."

"Well, that does sound like love doesn't it? But I am sure they dont trust me right now. They arn't going to let me leave." WIlliam looked annoyed and rolled his eyes at me.

"Dont be a kid Ivory, I mean really? My mom says everyone knows, that women have all the power." William rolled his eyes again, with an obvious tone.

"Well how do I get all the power?" I asked. He just laughed at me.

"Girl, I will give ya all the secrets, if you promise to give Leo and Levi a chance, before you label them monsters." He said, at first he sounded like a Hood Girl, then slowly turned dead serious. He was very smart for his age.

"Okay, I promise." Truth rang in my words. I knew not everyone was bad, and for William, I would try. Ivy paced in my mind, the block still up.

"Well, This is how you make your mate say yes......" As his plan came our more and more. Ivy was excited, with the block down. I was blushing, and about to have a nervous break down.

______________________________

"Just do it!!!" William groaned. After almost an hour of advice and practice, I still couldn't do it.

"You do it! Please!" I said, he rolled his eyes.

"Fine!" He stomped into Leo and Levi's office. Both of my mates parents were in there, as well as Jimbo and Riley, if I remember right.

"Leo!!" William yelled, demanding their attention, and interrupting their talk. Leo turned abruptly, annoyed and mad. I practically heard William gulp.

"What?" He hissed. William pulled me inside, and pushed me in front of him.

"Ivory has something she wants to ask you." He said quickly. I turned my head and looked at him with wide eyes, and my mouth open.

"Traitor!" I hissed playfully.

"Your his mate, he wont eat you!"  William said in defense.

"Yea, he will" Riley whispered, I turned my head to him, my mouth hanging open again. How perverted!

"Do it!" William whispered. I turned to him glaring at him. Why did he make me do this? Why did I promise him. I searched my mind for Ivy.

'Please help me with this.'

'Of course I will.' She reasured me.

"Go!" William insisted again, I glared at him.

"Good golly. Can we go get ice-cream?" I said, annoyed.

"I told you he isn't going to say yes that way." William said, I turned to him.

"I thought you said the woman was always right." I whisper yelled.

"Only if the guy is always horny!" William yelled. My mouth fell open.

"Dont... Don't say that." I muttered. William slapped my butt.

"Get to it. I want ice-cream." He whispered. I turned to Leo and Levi, whom were staring at us with smirked. Oh god, my armpits are sweating, I can't do this.

'Yes you can' Ivy said, anxious for me to just do it.

"Um, can we?"

"I dont know. I guess that...." He stopped talking and looked over at William. Then he immediately denied. "I meant nope, no can do." I sighed, that means I really have to do this. I took a hesitant step towards Leo, who looked at me cautiously. I turned back to William, who nodded and made a shooing motion. I stepped closer, and tried not to think when I wrapped my arms around Leo's neck, having to go on my toes. I felt Leo tense underneath my arms, I glanced at William who gave me two thumbs up. slowly, Leo put his arms around my waist. That's what William told me to wait for. I hope they cant smell my sweat.

I placed a kiss on Leo's cheek. And moved toward his ears. Out of the corned of my eye I saw William making kissey faces. What a turd. What was he said about my voice, make it deep and raspy? I tried.

"Can we please go get ice-cream?" I asked placing another kiss his cheek, before pulling back and attempting to look 'innocent' and puppy-like, as William put it. Leo looked at me with wide, dark eyes. I felt Ivy moving restfully, wanting both of her mates. Leo nodded, and I did as Willaim said, act like I did nothing weird, and jump out of his arms, all happy like. I took a deep breath, made a huge smile. Pecking his cheek again. I cant believe I am about to say this.

"Thaks, babe. Your a doll." I said sending him a wink. I walked toward Levi, kissed both of his cheeks. "You to, doll." Wink. And skip towards William, grabbed his hand, and skipped fast out of there.

"Wait! Come take Aaron, you need a guard." I heard Alpha Logan yelled. I sighed.

"You did great! They were soooo going to let you do anything you wanted to right there." William gushed as we walked back to the room.

"I almost peed." As soon as we got to the door, my mates still looked shocked, I faced the ground. Could I be any more mortified?

"Aaron, go take Ivory to bank room, and set her up with a card." Leo said, his voice sounding hoarse. Aaron smiled at me. I did a small wave, and looked at William.

"Say goodbye." That was his code word for go give them a hug and kiss by. I glared at him, but made my way to Levi, who was standing closely.

"Bye, Levi." I said giving him a hug and a quick peck on the cheek, but he turned his head making me kiss soft pink lips. I looked at him in shock, and he grinned sheepishly, with a shrug as if saying 'what did I do?'. I narrowed my eyes at him and went to Leo. Giving him another hug, and placing a soft quick kiss on his lip, I stuck my tongue out at Levi, I think William was wearing off. Levi's mouth feel open, as he threw his hand over his heart, in mock pain.

"So evil." He gasped. Aaron led me to the 'bank room'. The card ended up being a golden card, that Aaron said made everything I wanted free.

__________________________

William's POV

I swear trying to coach Ivory into learning how to make her mate let her do anything she wanted was like trying to teach a dog with no eyes, or feet how to walk a cat. But I knew it was worth it, when she opened up enough to stick her tongue out at Levi. I know she is more open with me, which is weird because I am just a kid.

'Maybe she's a pedophile." I hadn't meant to say that out loud, but everyone looked at me. They think because I am a kid I don't know stuff. Some people are creepy and like little kids as 'chew toys'. I know because I heard Roxy tell Kat that this guy who was older than her, was creepy, but she wanted to be his private chew toy. And Mom says I dont listen!

I roll my eyes in my head.

"So that is why you told me to say no." Leo said staring at the door.

"Yep! But man is she hard to train." I sighed.

"William. Thanks." Leo said, looking at me with grateful eyes.

"I just wanted Ice-cream!" I lie. Its a white lie, even Honest Abraham Lincoln said those.

"Did she tell you anything about her past?" Leo asked. I glared at him.

"She will tell you when she is ready, I am not betraying her. But she is just like Aria, but safer. That's all I will say." I said, I liked Ivory, and she will tell them if she wants them to know.

"Can I get Ice-cream now?" I drag out in a whiny voice, I wanted Ivory to be nice to Leo and Levi... but I really did want ice-cream. Also, I wanted to talk to Ivory, she needs to tell Levi and Leo the truth, so that she learns to trust them. I smiled when Leo said I could go, I am getting Mint Chocolate chip!!!
