“What are you talking about? Daddy said that the Alpha was hosting the Elite warriors and I should be here to support you both since I will soon be leading this pack with you as Luna It’s the best time to learn all of my hosting duties as the next Luna and what better way to learn than to be here with the current Luna while she entertains the Alpha King’s warriors?” Man she is grasping at straws and how many times can you use the word ‘Luna’ in a sentence? “No, we’ve gone over this. We aren’t eighteen yet and have no idea who our Luna will be, stop trying to force this, it’s not happening. We will only take our Goddess given mate and nothing else. You and your father need to figure this out?’ This is one of the rare times Dakota drops his fun personality. “We are running late though, excuse us.”
Cameron, always the peacekeeper. They both push past her and Oliver shifts his arm, his large hand is on the small of my back and his large body is between her and I.
Sarn does the same for Sierra.
I don’t look her way hoping she won’t notice me, but that is wishful thinking.
“WHAT THE F*CK? What is she doing here?!? You said no additional guests.”
Kaley has a pink claw pointed right at me.
“If she is here, then I demand, as your girlfriend, to be here too.
How does it look with you parading around with another girl all the time?”
Oliver moves me behind him so fast it took me a second to blinkand register it happened, Sam moved Sierra next to me and stood shoulder to shoulder with Oliver.
The wall of male testosterone should piss me off and to some extent it does.
But with Kaley, I will let them handle her as long as possible.
I know one day she will come for me and I won’t let her hurt me anymore, I won’t have to.
For now, they can have her. “Well, it’s about time you kids got here!” Luna Ava’s voice rings over to us, I peek around Oliver’s arm to take in the scene.
Kaley’s psycho face switches back to the sweet mask she wears to get adults to give her her own way. “Luna! It’s so great to see you! The guys were just telling me about dinner tonight, I hope you don ‘t mind an addition to the table.”
Cue folded hands and the little girl twist.
I have to admit, she put a good spin on the situation and a weaker person would have given in to her. “Oh, I’m so sorry. I wish you would have called me boys, but I only made enough for the usual group. Maybe another time…umm “Kaley.”
She gives the Luna her name, but her smile falters a bit. “Right, Kaley. Maybe another time. Skylar, Sierra come on, you can use my bathroom while the boys use the guest rooms, I want to hear all about training today.
Lucas said it was amazing. Have a good evening Kaley.
Luna Ava waves her off and moves into the doorway, clearly the conversation was over and we were all happy to comply with the Luna’s wishes. Oliver turned around keeping me directly in front of him and pushed me toward the front door where Luna Ava stood waiting.
Sam and Sierra right behind. Mateo and the twins bringing up the rear.
I could see in the reflection of the windows that none of them spared a backward glance at Kaley and she looked murderous. As soon as we were all inside Luna Ava started laughing.
“You should have seen your faces when she tried to say you invited her for dinner.”
She grabbed her stomach.
“But her face when I said ‘no’ was even better.
The Cunningham’s have been trying since Kaley was born to find a way to force a chosen mate bond with the boys.
It’s getting absurd.
Kevin showed up earlier today, I’m sure with the same intention of getting an invite to dinner.
Anyway, you all really do smell which I guess is to be expected when you train for almost ten hours.
Girls come on, I’ll show you to my bathroom and we’ll get you something to wear.”
She says sweetly, then turns to the guys “Boys, move it! They all hustle up the stairs to the second and third floors.
Sierra and I giggle at how she can get these boys, who are easily twice her size and strength, to move like she electrocuted them.
The first floor houses the Alpha and Luna’s offices to the left of the massive central staircase, the formal living room that is set up for pack meetings and other large events to the right of the staircase and the massive kitchen at the back.
The second floor of the packhouse is for guests.
There are six large rooms, three to each side of the house.
