Mated in the Shadow of My Sister novel Chapter 113

Chapter 0113

(Sheila POV)

I am so angry that I could scream. First, James abandons me in Hawaii with Aiden and Joey. Then, when I come back to the pack, I find out that he has not come home yet. Where the hell is he?

Now, I am stuck in my bedroom waiting for stu pid test results. URRRRRRRRGGHH. James had better not be out looking for that little b&tch Lily. She is a worthless piece of cr ap. The only thing she was ever good at was stress relief and laying in a d&mn box. I smile at the memory. Whatever. It is not like she is going to want to come back here anyway. I made sure of that. Still. Where the f&&k is James?

I am running out of time. I need him to make me his Luna as soon as possible. I have worked far too hard and for way too long to let that dream go. I throw myself on my bed in frustration. Just then, my phone goes off. At first, I think it is the timer, but it turns out to be a text message. Great. Just what I need to deal with right now. As though today could not get any worse. Bubbles: “Hey, Girl.”

Me: “Hey.”

Bubbles: “How is James doing?”

Me: Hot as ever.”

Bubbles: “Has he been made Alpha yet?”

Me: “No, his dad wants him to find a luna first.”

Bubbles: “Oh. It has been a long time. I better make it back your way soon.”

Oh, no you don’t. Not yet. Me: [rolling eyes emoji] “How is Jackson?”

Bubbles: “Growing like a weed. Driving me crazy most of the time.”

Me: “Kids do th “Kids do that. Still can’t believe you have one.”

Bubbles: “Me either. Thank Goddess that Antonio does most of the parenting. I do not have patience for that kid most of the time.”

Me: “You are still with Antonio?

I thought you would have gotten bored of him by now. You were or only supposed to be gone for a couple of years.”?

Bubbles: “Sex is too good. Every time I say it is the last time, he does something to up the ante. Last night he invited a male friend of his to join us. Oh, my Goddess that was fun.”

Me: [rolling eyes emoji] I bet James is better. Bubbles: [angry emoiji] “Girl, you know you cannot talk that way.”

Me: “Sure I can. You aren’t here. Besides, you have your s**y Spainard Antonio.”

Bubbles: “Do not get too comfortable. I will come back soon.”

Me: “You have been saying that for a long time. It never happens.”

Please do not come back. Please do not come back. Please do not come back. Bubbles: “This time, I mean it. I want to see everything up close and personal anyway. Me: “Will you bring Antonio and Jackson with you?”

Bubbles. “Girl, you know that would only cause problems.”

Yes, I know. That is why I want you to bring them. Me: “Have more faith than that. James is a forgiving guy. Plus, you know your parents will want to meet Jackson.”

Bubbles: “Girl, you are nothing but problems.”

Me: [rolling eyes emoji] Bubbles: “I am serious, Sheila. Hands off.”

Me: “Whatever. If you are serious about coming back, what about doing it as a surprise?

Maybe we can plan a party around it?”

Bubbles: “Oooooh!

I love parties!

That is a great idea.”

Oh, thank Goddess that worked. I need to keep her occupied while I work things out here. Me: “Okay, when should we plan it?”

Bubbles. “Definitely after James gets back. Let me think about dates and I will get back to you.”

Me: “Sounds good, Girlie. Love you.”

Bubbles: “Love you, too. Byeeeeeeeeee.”

I throw my phone to the ground. That conversation was a waste of my time. At least I probably bought. myself a little space. And I can check the test results now; my timer went off in the middle of our texting. I get up and go to the bathroom./I pick up the first test, and sure enough, there are two pink lines. I pick up the second test; same thing., F&&k. Sh&t. F&&k. What am I going to do?

How did I let this happen?

Think, Sheila. Think. There has to be a way around this. I pace around my room for twenty minutes. Finally, an idea comes to me and I smile. If my plan works, it It is time to talk to Margie.
