Who knew smoke could hang around this long

Chapter 12: My father never stepped in when his wife would rage at me.

Notes:

Hey angels 🩷 thank you all sm for ur guys love and support and patience!! I’m so slow to update and these chapters are never that long 😢 so sorry!! I really really like this chapter and I hope it’s as enjoyable for you as my reader! So so much drama! I do want to add Eddie calls his parents momma and daddy to them but doesn’t like to out of embarrassment. Frank is also really intense but not in a bad way (he has good intentions!)

Chapter Text

Stan and Bill thought it would be most respectful to the Kaspbraks to formally ask to court Eddie. So they stayed behind and waited anxiously in Eddie’s living room. Everyone else silently huddled next door in the Denbrough house. Eddie chewed his nails as the two alphas sat up confidently, one more then the other. “Eddie it will be fine, your mother knows mine they were childhood friends! We go to the same church, she’ll have no issues,” Bill tried to ease the brunette before he started to pace the hardwood floor.
“My mom is going to have a conniption! She doesn’t even want me to hang out with you, let alone our pack!” Huffing for air he stopped in his clumsy tracks, “My mother is going to never let me leave her side again, There won’t just be an issue, this is going to be a crisis!” Eddie’s arms flailed as his pouty lips flew. But the lock unlatching on the front door made all three teens freeze in silence.

 

Suddenly Eddie’s world went in complete slow motion. The door creaked open, revealing a face or rath and one of uncertainty. “What have you done!” Sonia shrieked out, throwing her bag dramatically with a gloved finger pointed out to her boy. “Sonia, please,” Frank pleaded, ignored entirely. Sonia practically lunged for her son, Stan standing quickly to his feet to pull Eddie’s frozen frame back.
“We’ve given you everything! Spoiled you! Pampered you! From the moment you presented all you’ve become is one of those vile, disgusting, humiliating slu-“
“Sonia!” Frank’s shout made even Bill hold his breath.
She looked to her husband. “You! This is your fault Frank! If you had been more of a man! Eddie wouldn’t have paraded himself to alphas! You babied him for far too long! Buying him those clothes! That car! This is your fault!” They were practically at eachothers throats.
Frank took a long deep breath before he lowered his voice. “Get out of my home.”
“You can’t be serious,”
“Daddy?”
“I said, get out of my house, Sonia. Come back when you can compose yourself!” He sternly turned and pointed to the door.

As the house shook from the slam, Frank adjusted his tie and took off his suit jacket. “I apologize for my wife, how rude of me,” he extended his tanned rough hand to Bill first, “I’m Eddie’s father, Frank Kaspbrak” he slyly smiled, sharing a similar smile to his son.

“Mr. K-,” Bill mentally cursed himself, Frank was a powerful man, and a powerful alpha. He had hold on Bill, who was generally a very bold young man. “Mr. Kaspbrak, would it be better if we came back at another time,” Stan insisted, fidgeting a bit with his hands. “I can smell the two of you all over my son, so we can sit and discuss this now here. Or you can explain it to the cops when I call them for you-“
“No sir, now is fine.” Stanley’s stormy eyes thundered.
“Good.”

Frank sat in a large leather chair while Bill and Stan sat in the two chairs across. The older man insisted they went to his office, to allow them to discuss this more seriously. Neither had even gotten to tell him what they were there for. He just knew.
“Sprout will you get your old man some coffee? Some for your friends too if you will.” Frank smiled with a gentle sigh to his son. “Sure, I’ll be back in a jiffy.” Eddie smiled.

“Now boys.” He pointed up to his mantled rifle above his head. “If you so much as upset my son, leave a bruise on his skin, or even talk to him in a tone in which I do not like,” Frank's hands came together in a white knuckled fold. “Then I’ll make sure he never has to see your face again, or plainly no one will be able to identify it at all.” He looked down to his watch, “do you boys understand”
“Yes sir absolutely sir.” Both nodded with sour smells of fear in the air.

“Brought some coffee daddy, kept em all black.” Eddie smiled nervously as he set the cups down.
“We’d like to court Eddie.” Bill blurted out.

Notes:

This is my first fic I’ve posted! I’m open to suggestions for the chapters to come, I feel like characterization is a little rough right now but I feel like this will definitely improve as I go! Thanks so much for the read <3
