My Secret, My Bully, My Mates.
Chapter 0532

"Why are you guys being weird?" I call over from the sink as I wash my hands.

"What do you remember this time? From the magic release, I mean." He lets me pass him and puts his hand on the small of my back, steering me towards the bed. Cam and Kota have switched spots. "Seriously. What is going on? Why are you guys playing musical sleeping spots?"

Oliver just pushes me forward as Cam reaches out for me, smiling. "It's my turn, get over here."

I lay on my back as Cam wraps his arm around my waist and nuzzles into my hair taking an audible deep breath in. Oliver slides in next to me, laying on his back, one arm behind his head, the other draped across his bare torso. How did I not notice that before? I think I might be blushing.

I clear my throat. "So, we're here and not at the hospital, that has to be a good sign right?"

"They tried, after the last time we said 'no' and told the healers to come here. We don't all fit in a hospital room..." Oliver grumbles.

"And frankly, we are getting tired of spending time there." Cam finishes in my hair.

"You kept mumbling 'don't leave me.' What did you see Smalls?

I chew on my bottom lip. Still avoiding the question I ask one of my own instead. "Did you guys see anything this time?" All three of them tense. Far too much time passes silently. "Guys! You're freaking me out. What happened?"

"I saw you walk off with a faceless douche-canoe. You were smiling at him like he hung the moon and just walked away." Dakota breathes out. I can hear his wolf grumble in his chest.

"I saw the same thing. You didn't even look back. You found a mate and it wasn't us. I thought I was going to throw up." He squeezes me tighter.

"Oliver?" I turn to look at him, but he turns his head. I reach for his hand on his abs and try to keep my heart in check. "Tell me, please." I've never had to beg him for an answer before. He's always been the person to just tell me, even if it might hurt my feelings. He's never actively avoided answering me before and my heart starts to hurt all over. Maybe I will lose him like I saw. I sit up awkwardly since Cam won't let me go and turn my whole body to him. I lace our fingers together and give him a squeeze. I need to hear this.

"You're going to be the next Luna." He's still not looking at me. "You will have two Alphas to protect you. I'm just a Gamma, you won't need me." He looks at me then and I can see unshed tears in his eyes. He releases my hand and crosses his arms over his massive chest, looking down. He's my big, protective, moody guy. He's never been cocky or arrogant, but he's also never been unsure of himself and he is now I did that to him, even if it wasn't really me, some version of me has caused him pain.

"We have always joked about you being a Luna. You have always put everyone else first. You take on things that should be far too much for you, but you seem to always make things work after a ton of personal sacrifice." He looks up at me. "The saw you leaving, but I've seen you really leave and I don't know if I can go through that again."

"I'm here now okay. That's all I can say. The mate thing is something none of us have control over. We need to go find Elena and Gentry, I want to get rid of a third point before Cam and Kota's birthday. They mentioned something might be tied to when you guys come of age. I would like to have a majority control of the magic around here before that happens."

"Told you."

"Huh?"

"When you get up to pee, weird sh*t happens and you seem to like looking for it."

"Shut up Dakota."

"I like it when you use my whole name, Smalls." I just laugh.

"I'm going to shower and we are going to go look for trouble together.
