I finally had to step away to get some water and take a break. I was standing at the island in the kitchen, chugging a bottle of water and heard voices from the back hallway that leads to the garage.

“I just don’t know why she wants to keep it a secret.

If I was her, I would tell everyone.”

“I know, right? There must be something else going on. We’ll have to pay really close attention.”

Definitely Marnie and Jeanie. I hear footsteps coming towards me, so 1 scramble back towards the fridge and act like I’m getting something out. They don’t even notice me and just keep walking and talking.

“She’s probably lying, everyone knows they want their mate. I have heard that all the rumors about them sleeping around are bullsh*t too. That they

are actually waiting to give up their V card to their goddess given mate. Which is totally romantic! Who knows. They wouldn’t all of a sudden decide tc

hook up with her randomly at a party with the Alpha King here either. No one is dumb enough to believe that”

Marnie says.

“I don’t know. She likes to exaggerate, but would she lie about mates? She’s been talking about them being her mates for years.” Jeanie asks.

“She can’t even tell who her mate is for three more years, there’s no way.” Marnie scoffs. “But I’m not going to stop her from laying claim to them, let

her live her fantasy for as long as she can. Cause there is no way she’s going to be Luna, she wouldn’t be able to handle the job. The Moon Goddess

wouldn’t make us all suffer like that, she’s awful now, can you imagine if she had any real authority?” She giggles and Jeanie joins in. “We just need

to stay on her good side for a few more years, then the truth will come out. She’s probably actually mated to some worthless Omega who’s abusive.

That would be karma, wouldn’t it?”

That left me feeling, I’m not sure actually. I can’t believe the people closest to her would talk about her like that, but at the same time, Kaley is a horrible person and clearly still trying to lay claim to the Luna title. I walk outside back to my friends, but I’m not really in the party mood anymore.

Every time I hear her mention being with the twins or being Luna, I get an uneasy sick feeling in the pit of my stomach. I go to find the guys to tell them that I am going up to bed, but Sam has other ideas as Just the Way You Are comes on. He grabs Sierra and I and starts serenading the two of

us, and all I can do is laugh with her. The rest of the guys join in our little group and start singing, terribly, to both of us and taking turns to dance with

us, very closely and slowly. No one breaks into our little circle, it’s sweet and for the first time it leaves me feeling comfortable and safe doing normal teenage things, even in this crowd.”

Once the song is over, I break away from Kota and hug each of them, “Tl need to sleep, I will see you guys in the morning.” I hug Sierra a little longer

than the rest of them. “Have fun.” I wink at her. “If you need to stay tonight you can come cuddle with me.” Sᴇaʀch Thᴇ FindNøvᴇl.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

“Wait. Does that invitation extend to all of us?” Sam asks. I just roll my eyes.

“Hey, wait up, I’ll walk you up.”

“I battled with about a hundred different people in the last two days, I think I can walk up to my room alone, but thank you Oliver.”

“I’m aware of your capabilities, Bite Size, but my wolf is running circles in my head and giving mea headache at the fact that you are going somewhere without one of us. Especially after the thing with Micah. Can I please just walk with you to shut him up?” He almost begs.

“Sure, I guess. Does that happen a lot, your wolf being territorial like that?” We start our way to the Staircase leading to the second floor.

“Only with you Bite Size, only with you. And it’s crazy, because I feel like Mateo, like I need to protect you, like my wolf’s whole mission is to keep you safe.

We haven’t even been this protective over a girl we want to hook up with, no offense.” He adds quickly at the end, eyes wide looking terrified that he offended me.

“None taken, and to be honest, I feel the same. You seem to make me calm and centered, like my best friend or my other half, but not in a mate way.

Is that weird?” I look up at him and he is smiling, like actually smiling. It is blinding, and jaw dropping. “Oh man! Your mate is in trouble!” I giggle at him.
