Chapter 0536
“What happened?” Anders says as we watch Lily walk out the door with Lucas. I can’t believe that douchebag is taking my mate to school. I can’t believe any of this is happening. Donovan is pacing angrily in my head, and I want to hit something or someone so bad my fists are twitching.
Anders hand comes down on my shoulder, forcing my attention to him. “What happened?” He asks slowly, forcing me to focus on him.
I take a deep breath and we walk out to his car. I wait until I’m inside before telling him about the events of the night before. He whistles low. “That’s a fucking mess, Clint.”
“No fucking kidding. Anders. Why do you think I’m about ready to explode?”
“What are you going to do?”
“I don’t know. She won’t even speak to me. She has agreed to train with me in the afternoons and your dad recommended that I not say anything about this and focus on training. After this morning. I think he’s right.”
“My father usually is.” Anders says, as we pull up to Calista’s house. She doesn’t seem surprised that Lily isn’t with us today. Anders hops out and opens the door for her, kissing her before she gets in. My heart feels like it’s breaking. That should have been how my morning went with my mate.
“I’ll move to the back.” I say and switch places with Calista. I don’t want to talk, I need to think, which is practically impossible with Donovan snarling at me and my stupidity, as he calls it.
“What would you call it?‘ He asks me.
‘I didn’t do anything stupid. Maybe I was distracted and not paying attention to the signs, but I never wanted to kiss Anna. You know I don’t want anyone other than Lily.”
“We’re following Patrick’s advice and I’m running training today.”
‘Fine. I’ll do anything as long as we get to spend some time with our mate.”
In Chemistry, I try to engage Lily in conversation about anything. She only speaks about our project. Her demeaner is so cold, it’s like I’m no one to her, like this weekend never happened. She refuses to look at me and answers my questions with the least amount of words possible.
In Literature she completely ignores me, and I’m so distracted I can’t answer a single question asked of me. In complete contrast, Lily has every answer to every question. I’d be utterly impressed if I wasn’t so devastated.
At lunch, neither Lily nor Calista is anywhere to be found. “Okay, you need to fix this. Your issues with your mate are now impacting my time with mine.” Anders says to me.
“I’m open to suggestions,” I tell him.

“I wish I had words of wisdom for you, my friend. I guess I would go with my dad’s suggestion. Use.
Donovan.”
“Yeah, that’s what I’m going to do for training. Donovan will train Andra. At least I’ll get to spend some time with her.”
Anders looks thoughtful for a moment. “You know, if that goes well, maybe have Donovan go see her tonight.”
“What do you mean?”
He turns and looks at me. “I mean, shift and have Donovan go to her room. Maybe she’ll let him in. Don’t shift back, let him spend the time with her, but you can be there with them. It may help. You need to do something, my brother, because you seem like you’re about to snap.”
“I am.” I say quietly, forcing the lump in my throat back. “It’s a good idea. I’ll try it.”
“Good. I’ll think of some other ideas if that doesn’t work. You know I’m here for you.”
I look at my friend and for the first time, I see him as the Alpha he will become in a very short amount of time. “You’re going to be an amazing Alpha, do you know that?”

You said in other chapters Cara smells like vinallia and lavender and now are saying she smells like vinallia and honey. Didn't know of that was on purpose or a mistake....
