Mated in the Shadow of My Sister novel Chapter 73

Chapter 0073

(James POV)

For a couple of minutes, Alpha Brady and I simply glare at each other. There is a crowd of people

watching us, but neither of us seem to care.

For my part, I am using the time to try to calm the raging inferno that I feel inside. I am not the kind of

wolf who gets jealous easily, and so the extreme jealousy and anger that I am feeling right now feels

foreign to me.

I notice that Lily is standing beside Brady, clinging to his arm much like Sheila was clinging to me earlier.

Lily seems to be silently begging him to calm down. The jealousy in me rises even more.

“Do you remember the last time you felt this way?” Luke links me.

“I do not think that I have ever felt this way. At least not on this scale,” I respond to him.

“Oh, yes you have. Do you remember?” Luke taunts.

“No.”

“The night Stephanie died.”

“What? I never got jealous around Stephanie. I trusted her.”

“Think back, James. Don’t you remember? You got really angry and jealous that night when Stephanie

told you that Lily snuck out to meet a boy.”

“I was irritated that Lily ruined our date. I was not jealous that she went to meet a boy. I had no reason to be. I did not even know that Lily was our mate then.”

“You forget that I am part of you. I share your memories and I feel your emotions. It is time to be honest with yourself.”

“I was not feeling jea-….”

Screw it. I am not having this conversation with Luke right now. I need to focus on the immediate task at hand, and that is Brady.

“Alpha Brady? What are you doing here? I had expected to see your father.”

“He was occupied, and so he sent me in his place,” he sneers.

“What is with the attitude? You are acting as though you caught me about to kiss your mate,” I sneer back.

“EX–mate, James. You seem to forget Lily is your EX–mate.”

“Ah, yes. Thank you for that clarification. I know you know all about ex–mates. How is Evelyn these

days?” I ask sarcastically.
