Chapter 455
I love the Alpha and Luna with all of my heart, but I know this whole situation is not right. I can’t help them though, if I don’t know what is going on. As a group we decided to see what happens when we stay in our own little bubble at the opposite end of the table.
The twins placed me at the head, opposite Alpha Lucas.
Each of them flanking me. Lil and Jena sat across from each other. Naturally Mateo sat next to Jena, leaving Oliver and Sam to sit next to Lil.
We all walked in talking animatedly about everything that we got done today, although most of it was code so Kevin wouldn’t get too suspicious. I could feel the different levels of stares aimed right at me.
“Why don’t you children join us down here in your regular seats?”
We stop our conversation to look at Kevin, none of us moving. Kaley gently pats the two open place settings on either side of her.
“We’re good here, thank you though Kevin.” I say as sweetly as I can.
“I believe that particular seat is reserved for visiting Alphas and other important pack members. Not general seating.”
“Oh, you are right, how silly of me.” I get up grabbing my plate, the twins looking appalled at my actions until they
notice Jena getting up too. We switch places exchanging a wink.
I am now sitting in between Cam and Mateo, who looks at Kota and gives some kind of guy head signal and they both change places too, bringing a smile to all of our group’s faces. They are clearly staking a claim in front of these adults. We go back to our conversation as if nothing changed.
Sam tried to make plans over the mindlink for having a bonfire, but it just became a pain to have to translate between my two groups of friends. So we decided to table that topic for later and I ventured into something a little safer.
“Sam, have you heard from Sierra? She hasn’t responded to me in a while, so I don’t know if she’s on a mission or what. Is she coming to visit soon?”
“She is for sure coming for the spring ball, especially if you all will be here. I’m hoping to get her here for my birthday.” He gives me a knowing look and our biggest player has been tamed and is hopeful for his mate.
That boy has been gone for her since the day they met, but it is so cute to see that look in his eyes, but there is a little bit of fear there too. He loves her and what if the Moon
Goddess decided they shouldn’t be mates?
“I have to check in with Osiston and Alpha Reggie
tomorrow. I’ll see what her status is.” His smile is blinding.
“So, do you all turn 18 soon then?” Jena asks.
“Yeah, in the spring, We were all born within weeks of each other, so we usually just celebrate the whole month,
wrapping up with Little Bit’s birthday.”
“That must have been fun growing up.” Lil says looking excited. “A whole month of parties. Why didn’t you say anything Midge?”
“I was on a mission last year for my birthday, so I couldn’t say anything and it kind of sucked anyway.”
“I forgot about that, didn’t Mina hijack your date?” She laughs and I smile at the memory. It’s bittersweet now.
A clatter of utensils next to me makes me jump.
“What date?” Kota asks, sounding pained.
“You never said you were dating anyone, Shorty.” My brothers look is accusing.
“First, I was on a mission, trying to get close to the rogues so we could get into their camp. It happened to be a good excuse to do that and second, I do not need to run my dating schedule by you, Mateo.”
