“Don’t you think I deserve an apology? Laura raises an eyebrow.

It’s not what she said exactly…it’s the anger that catches me off guard. I stop pouring the scotch and look at her properly.

“I’m sorry?”

“That’s sarcastic.”

“Of course it is. I don’t even know why I’m apologizing

For not telling me! I know I didn’t ask. But between you and me, you know you were helping Demetra hide it.”

I hold the glass bottle mid-air, weighing her words, I’m sorry, what does that change? I don’t remember us being close friends or bloody martyrs to be sharing both plain or deep secrets. I didn’t even know you before I came to tour Wolf Arts. And during those three months, the only things we spoke about were purely professional’ I set the bottle down.

“So I’m finding it hard to understated ==”

“You didn’t know me

Laura squints her eyes at the

“Laura-

“I was in your fucking class! Same set. The only other Trybrid in the class and you’re telling me you didn’t know me!?”

I taste my lips with arrogance

“If you knew me, Laura, then you knew I was full of myself, And if I was talking to a she-wolf, it was because I wanted to get in her panties. So no, I didn’t pay attention that there was another trybrid. After all, I was the only trybrid being spoken about”

I look at her furious facr

“Can we move past this? I ask. “Please?”

I still stand on what I said about Demetra! Now, it’s even worse now as I find out she is your Lysa and a

mother-

“Do not respect my friendliness for access to pick apart my Luna. I could have ended you back at Wolf Arts the moment your hand reached for her. Demetra wouldn’t have wanted that, so I held back. Whatever personal opinion you have about my mate, you keep it to yourself. You do not bring it to me. I am her husband”

We hold the stare Trybrid to trybnd

Trybris never end a starsg contest first so that has us both looking at each other. Her eyes blazing. Mine fai

“That way, huh? Laura thts her head. Tm equal to you, Emris. I’m not Demetra.”

lver comes into the area.

I walk out first. Pissed. Obviously. Because what the fuck was the point of that conversation in the first place?

Oh, I know. I’m not clueless. in able to read if a she-wolf has interest in me from far away. Laura does. She has a romantic and possessive interest but I pretend not to take notice of it at any point.

I was able to put several things between us ever back at Wolf Arts. Her constantly bringing me food. I would have easily said to her face that I was married back then but I couldn’t. Now she knows I’m married. She should see a boundary that she’s not allowed to cross.

However, if she’s still trying to play hard-headed? I’m gonna set the tone. I see Travis leaving already. I don’t even say a word to the school boy. Silver walks away with them for the rest of the things that need to be said.

“Where’s Demi?” I ask Summer.

“Oh, she just left to check on Amira and Milo-”

“Emris?” Mom says just when I’m about to leave. “The Lion Pride Pack invited us to the engagement of Alpha Slade.” She holds up a formal invitation. “A…hide and Seek ceremony?”

“Are you surprised? I’m Ronin’s son-in-law. We are no longer enemies of course they invited us.”

Derisha….mamacita still looks shocked. I realize that out of everyone else in the family, she’s probably the only one still at odd ends with Lion pride. Her and Allison are on bad foot. Her and Ronin? Even worse.
