Lily and James (werewolf novel) novel Chapter 158

Chapter 0158

(Lily POV)

What I expected when I agreed to go out drinking and dancing with Charlotte: a little craziness; a lot of fun and laughter; a happy distraction from the stress associated with James preparing to marry Sheila; and maybe having to fend off a little bit of male attention.

What I did not expect:

-having to spend 20 minutes before I left reassuring James that I was not being reckless by wearing that black dress to a bar; that my plans for the night only involved a little bit of fun with Charlotte; and that I

was not going out looking for male attention;

–having to spend one-third of the night watching Charlotte dance and make out with a famous hockey player that was in town; one-third of the night comforting Charlotte while she cried; and the final third

dealing with everything else that happened;

–having to break the arm of a human who would not take no for an answer;

–having to watch Charlotte’s face light up as she met her fated mate, only to have him call her a sl ut and

walk away, T

-finding out that I have a doppelgänger who lives in Spain; and

-last but definitely not least-

–finding out that my sister may be alive. T

Yeah. Let’s just say tonight did not go the way that I expected it to.

Where do I even start to explain to you everything that happened? I am sure you would like me to start

with Stephanie, but I am still processing that little piece of news and whether I was just imagining things..

So… let us start with James and work our way forward..

SURPRISE #1: JAMES & MY DRESS

As you already know, Charlotte thought it was a great idea to snap a few pictures of me and send them to James. I really do think Charlotte meant well, but she was missing a few key pieces of information. Specifically, she did not know that James was my mate; she did not know that James was an alpha wolf, and she did not know that the state of my relationship with James was fairly fragile.

Had Charlotte known any of these things-or had she spent more time in packs surrounded by hormonal

trigger him.
