Chapter 51: Ayla
Surprised didn’t begin to cover what I was feeling. How did she know about Theo? Had he told Kylee? Goddess, please don’t let him have told Kylee. I worked to push my anxiety down. I just needed to give her a chance to explain.
“How?” I managed to choke out.
She squeezed my hand. “Ayla, I met my mate when I went to the Greytooth pack to see Kylee. She wanted my help with the mating ceremony. My mate is Briggs, Theo’s Beta.”
Tsmiled. “I’m happy for you, Mina. I only meet him once, but
Beta Briggs seems like a good man.”
“He is,” she said with a bright smile, but it faded quickly. “What about Alpha Kingston? Is he good to you?”
“He is,” I replied. “He has really been there for me since… since I left the pack.”
“You have no idea how relieved I am to hear that, Ayla,” Mina stated. “I’ve been worried sick ever since I found out what Theo did to you. And everything Kylee did.”
Anger rolled off of her at the mention of my sister.
“Mina, Kylee doesn’t know about me and Theo, does she?”
“No,” she confirmed, shaking her head. “Briggs insisted you didn’t want her to know. So, none of us have told her.”
“Thank you. I just don’t want to put that on her.”

“Ayla,” Mina scolded. “She a liar. You have no reason to keep protecting her.”
“Mina, it doesn’t matter what she’s done to me,” I insisted. “I just want both of us to move on from all of this. As long as she doesn’t know, she and Theo will be happy. Then I can move on with Kingston.”
Her expression changed. She almost looked pained.
“What’s wrong?” I asked.
“Theo and Kylee broke up. They’re not going to be mated.”
My heart fell to my stomach. This couldn’t be happening. I needed him to mark Kylee. He was supposed to be taking care of her and Ma. He was supposed to free me from our bond. How would I be able to truly be with Kingston if he didn’t mark
her?
“No, that can’t be true,” I said. “He wouldn’t… Why?”
“Theo found out about everything. He found out that Kylee had been lying about you and about their relationship.”
“What do you mean she lied about their relationship?” I asked.
“She told you she and Theo were fated mates, didn’t she?” Mina inquired.
“Yeah,” I verified. “I wasn’t sure if she lied or if we were both somehow his mate.”
“She lied, Ayla. But she also lied about when they actually got together. She may have met or at least saw Theo when she visited the campus her senior year, but they didn’t start seeing each other until last year,” Mina told me.

This was too much. Why would she do something like that? I pinched the bridge of my nose. I didn’t know how to feel about this. Kylee wasn’t the person I thought she was. I don’t know when she turned into someone who could do those things. Maybe I hadn’t really been there enough to see it.
