The next morning, my mom came with me to the pack house. We walked in and everyone froze. A few whispers could be here in the back, but my mom kept her head raised high and headed straight upstairs. But when she reached the second floor, I grabbed

her before she could head to Vince’s office and anything happened. 1

“What are you doing?” She hissed back at me.

I smiled. “Did you think I would make you face them alone?” I shook my head and nodded toward the hallway. “Come to my

office, so I can drop off my stuff. I’ll let Rick know where I’ll be and then come with you.”

My mom shook her head. “I can do this alone.”

I snorted. “Of course you can, but I won’t let you.” I pulled her to my office and walked in to find Brandon pacing the floor. I felt my face stiffen for a minute and I looked away quickly, like I was fighting tears. “Brandon, I told you I needed space.”

“Babe.” He came towards me but stopped short when he saw my mom.

“Brandon.” Her voice was cool. “I’m surprised you managed to get away from Shannon.” Her words were like knives and I saw them hit their mark. Good. I want him to be on shaky ground. I need him to be unsure, but not clingy. It was a balancing act, and I

hadn’t found the sweet spot yet.

“Ainsley, I didn’t realize you were coming in today with Amy.” Brandon was trying to recover.

My mom scoffed. “I said I was coming in for my divorce. The earlier, the better.”

Brandon raised his hands in surrender. “I’m not your enemy.” He looked to me for help but I just looked away and wiped at my

dry face. “Amy, I wasn’t trying to hurt you.”

“Yet again, you chose your ex girlfriend instead of your supposed mate.” My mother glared at him. “You keep acting like you are the victim here, Brandon. But I was cheated on, I was betrayed. And then you sided with your ex girlfriend. Amy did nothing to deserve what you did. AND YOU HAVE DONE IT OVER AND OVER.” She shook herself and dropped her voice back down. Her arm came around my shoulder. “I was the victim of Morgan, but Amy, she is the victim of you and Shannan.”

Brandon came over to us and tried to grab my hands. But I pulled away. “Amy..splease.”

I finally looked at him, and I made sure I had tears filling my eyes. “I’ve been thinking…maybe we should cancel the mating ceremony.” He stumbled back a step. “I love you but it’s obvious you still have feelings for Shannon. And I don’t want to come

between you two.”

“But we are supposed to be mated in less than a month.” He looked a little lost.

“I know, but since Shannon spent most of the time creating the mating ceremony, maybe she will be okay stepping in as your mate. It’s obvious you want to be together.” I looked away. “Please excuse us. My mom needs to speak to your dad.” I smiled sadly. “I’ll let him know so that everything will be handled today.” I turned away and walked into Rick’s office.

“Amy?” He looked up and saw my face. “What’s wrong?” He stood and walked over to the door, and saw my mother glaring at Brandon. I watched his face cool. “Alpha Brandon, I know I don’t have the right to ask, but I think it’s better if you leave. Could

you head to your father’s office? I’m sure you will be present in the meeting Amy was just talking about.”

Brandon looked like he wanted to argue, but my mom growled. His eyes cut to her and I heard him swallow. I had to cover my mouth like I was holding in a sob to keep my smile hidden. “Yeah. I’ll go. Amy…we will talk later.” Then his steps faded away.

I made it a show to wipe more of my face and sniffled for the camera wherever it was. And then I walked over to Rick. “Thank you for that.” I gave him a watery smile. “I came in here to tall you I was going with my mother to handle her divorce, but hopefully I

will be back to finish the day.”
