Adrian’s POV
I don’t know why i was so shocked to see them, I knew they were coming home tonight. I guess with all that happened at the carnival, i forget. I recovered from my shock and pulled my mother in a hug.
Just because i was big bad Alpha-to-be didn’t mean i didn’t love my family. Even though i had spent the time they were gone with my mate, didn’t mean i completely forgot about my parents. I cuddled closer to her, taking in her scent and motherly touch, as she wrapped her arms around me, softly caressing the back of my head.
The sound of someone coughing made us pull away and look to my dad as he looked at us with amusement and asked, “Where’s my hug?” I chuckled and stepped towards him, pulling him in.
After greeting both my parents, i helped them inside and put their things back in their room. We had this… ritual i guess, where every time one of us went on a trip, we would sit on the couch when they returned as a family and talk for at least a few hours.
