Chapter 42: Step-Cousin Chasity? Calix Chasity wiggled her way out of my arms. Her skin was slippery in the water so she managed to escape me for justa moment.

She had seemingly forgotten we were still at the deep end.

She went under the water's surface instantly.

I grabbed her and pulled her back up.

She was spluttering and coughing up water.

No sooner had i plucked her from the watery deep than she tried to wriggle away again.

"Take me back to the pool's edge please now! I want to get out!" Shrieked Chasity.

I could feel her going into panic mode.

I was not sure how to salvage this moment.

Everything had been going so well up until this point, up until the very moment I had revealedthe secret Alex had explicitly told me not to reveal while we were on vacation.

I had done just the opposite and now Chasity didn't even want me touching her.

"Take me back!" She shrieked, snapping me out of my rumination.

"Calix!" She yelled.

I tightened my grip on her.

I was scared to let go of her now.

If I did not reassure her right away, she might withdraw from us emotionally for therest of the trip.

"I just want to talk to you, ok.

Let's talk about this!" I pleaded, trying to calm her down.

“Let me go!!!" She screamed.

Suddenly, a memory hit me out of nowhere.

I reached the ice fishing hole just in time to see Felix dunk her into the freezing cold water.

She was kicking and screaming as he held her under the water.

Alex had been on board at first but now he looked like he wanted to put astop to this.

He demanded that Felix hand her over.

When they pulled her out, she was motionless.

I felt like throwing myself into the ice fishing hole.

Why was / such a coward? She had been utterly terrified back then and she was still somewhat apprehensive around us now.

She let out a blood-curdling scream, catching me completely off guard.

I jumped, startled, and she slipped from my arms and into the water a second time.

s**t.

I reached for her but someone else got there first.

Felix I had been about three drinks in when I heard Chasity scream.

My hot blood ran cold.

I moved at werewolf speed towards the direction the screaming had come from.

I had never moved faster in my life.

I was actually winded when I arrived mere seconds later to find my Baby Chasity strugglingin the deep end of the pool and a befuddled looking Calix nearby.

What the f**k?! I dove right into the deep end of the pool in a flash.

I gathered Chasity up in my arms just as Calix's two brain cells finally rubbed together and decided to reach for her.

I beat him to it though.

She clung to me and I carried her straight out of the pool.cradling her to my chest.

I turned to look at Calix who was still standing in the centre of the pool looking befuddled.

"What the f**k is wrong with you?" I snapped, throwing a dirty look at Calix.

He looked so pitiful standing there all forlorn in the deep end of the pool but I could not help but raise my voiceat him.

We had just secured our relationship with our beautiful mate yesterday and he was about tolet her drown the very next day.

"Didn't you see her struggling in the water? She was screaming almost a minute now.

I ran here as fast as I could.

I thought she was alone in the pool or something.
