My Secret, My Bully, My Mates (skylar) by Miss l Free novel Chapter 65

I got up and started walking away towards the pathway up to the packhouse yard. My eyes and head hurt from crying so much tonight. I need to sleep and then get back to my life, the way it was before the guys barged in and decided they all of a sudden needed to be a part of it.

“Sky wait.” Mateo calls, jogging after me.

“I’m done for tonight, please just let me go.” I say weakly continuing my way up the path, but slowing down. My wolf is still holding me back for some reason and I am too worn out to be stubborn against her.

“I’m not going to stop you, and I know it probably means nothing, but I am sorry. I had no idea and I know that’s on me, but for what it’s worth, I love you.” He wraps his big arms around me from behind and kisses the top of my head and he breathes in deep then sighs before letting me go.

I take a few more steps forward when I smell Oliver right before he wraps his arms around me, same as Mateo, but he kisses the side of my head before taking a deep breath of my scent. I can feel his whole body relax before he lets go of me. Sam repeats the hug, kissing the other side of my head, also taking a deep breath of my scent and noticeably relaxing. Sam releases me and I continue up the path. I’m too drained to wonder what is going on with all of them taking in my scent.

My tears are flowing again. I can feel their sincerity, their agony at being a reason for some of my torture. No one else approaches me so I continue walking, trying to steady my breathing. Even though I told them I don’t want apologies, it stings that the twins didn’t follow suit with the other three and I don’t expect anything from Sierra. She noticed within minutes that something was wrong with me when these guys have known me my whole life.

I made it to the packhouse backyard and feel like I have been walking for hours. The full out run and shifting like that took its toll, something I made note to work on. I can’t have an energy drain just from shifting in a fight. Just as I start to turn towards my backyard, hands grab each of my upper arms to stop me. Kota and Cam’s scent hits me at the same time and the warmth from their hands makes goosebumps rise up all over my body.
