Secret with Betas Daughter: Skylar Story Series

“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…

I can feel myself calming down, but, “What the actual f*ck was that?! I catch fire now?!?! Is this common or some other bullsh*t reserved just for me?” I run my fingers through hair and take a deep breath. “Are my eye’s normal at least?” I look to Oliver again. He’s my go-to for straight…
