Chapter 78 Tell Me About Me “Lizzy first?” Kai said.
“Sure.” Thea mind linked Lizzy.
“Hey, it’s Thea.
I need your help.
Where are you?” “Training,” Lizzy responded.
Thea and the triplets went outside, and Lizzy met them by the doors to the pack house.
“What's up?” Lizzy said.
“We're picking up a bunch of refugees tonight,” Thea said.
“We need someone here to take care of them while we're picking up the next group, and so on.” “lm on it,” Lizzy said.
“Alessia will want to help too, I’m sure.” “That's what we were thinking, but I haven't met her yet.” Thea turned to the triplets.
“Hey, I think I need to talk with Lizzy alone for a bit,” she said.
“Okay.
We'll go talk to our parents,” Conri said.
They each kissed her goodbye and left.
Her Delta guards stayed at a distance.
“What's up?” Lizzy said.
“We're like, best fnends, right?” Thea said.
“Yeah.” “Can you tell me about myself?” “Of course.
Where do you want me to start?” “At the beginning, I guess.
I don't Know anything, and it seems like I’m expected to lead things.
I just learned that these Delta team guys that guard me are also my strike force.
People keep calling me Luna.
It’s all a bit much.” “I thought it was difficult being you before, even with all your training,” Lizzy said.
“I can't imagine being you now with no memories.
Here, let’s go to the library to talk.
It's quiet.
No one is ever there.” A few minutes later, they were in the pack library, sitting on a couch.
Lizzy gave her a rundown of her early life.
“Your parents are really good people.
They taught you to think of others before yourself.
They're both Alpha blood.
That’s why you're so strong.
You've spent your life training alongside the future Alphas.
You always went out of your way to get to know everyone in the pack.
You've always found ways to take care of everyone and make their lives better.” “That's intimidating,” Thea said.
“Youre intimidating,” Lizzy said.
“People love you because you're kind, but there's also a healthy amount of fear.
You're probably the best fighter in our pack, and we're the strongest pack on the west coast.
It’s not a stretch to say you're the strongest wolf on the west coast.” “The triplets have to be stronger than me,” Thea said.
“And those Delta guys are tanks.” “Yeah,” Lizzy said.
“You routinely beat them in training.” Thea reared her head back in disbelief.
“You'll see when you start training again, ” Lizzy said.
“Let's see.
You started dating the triplets a few months ago.
It was before your birthday when you'd shift and be able to identify your mate.
You were afraid they weren't your mates.
They were certain you were.
None of you had ever dated anyone else.
You always want to do the best at whatever you're doing.
Come here.” Lizzy got up and led Thea to the stack of relationship books.
“We've been researching goddess gifts and gifted the past few months,” Lizzy said.
“This is our research.” She pointed to a stack of Xeroxes, then to another.
“ This stack is about the matebond—another thing you were working on.
When you finally accepted that the triplets were your mates, you bought all these books on relationships.
You said you didn't know anything about relationships because you'd never dated anyone, and you didn’t want to mess it up.
As if you could.
The triplets have loved you since you were kids.
They used to find excuses to touch you.
Alaric would offer you his arm because you never paid attention to where you were going.
Kai would drape his arm around your shoulders, and Conri has held onto the hem of your shirt since you were toddlers.
He really can't stand to be far from you.
After you started dating, they didn't need excuses.
They just claimed you.
You wouldn't believe the talk at school.
All three of them on you all the time—girls from other packs are so jealous.” “Girls from our pack aren't?” Thea said.
“Our pack loves you,” Lizzy said.
“Everyone has always known the goddess made those three Alphas for you.
Maybe it’s another gift from the goddess— our pack respects and loves the triplets as our future leaders, but none of us can think about them romantically.
Now that I think about it, maybe the triplets are using their Alpha powers to keep us from thinking about them that way.
Hmm.
Something's going on there.” “That does seem strange,” Thea said.
“I thought it was kind of weird that Kai had me sit on his lap at school, and no one said anything.” “Oh, they would beat up anyone who said anything.
They've been waiting to claim you forever.
No one is going to mess that up.” She went on to tell her about the past few months, how Thea was under house arrest and had to hire Lizzy as her assistant.
“Youre my assistant?” Thea said.
“Yeah.
Anything you need, I’m here,” Lizzy said.
“ Like, if you're running out of condoms or underwear,” she trailed off.
“Oh my goddess.
You get that stuff for me?” Lizzy laughed.
“You better believe it.
Do you need more? I’m getting you more.
Any new requests?” “Um, maybe underwear that tears easily? They seem to like doing that.” Lizzy laughed.
“I'll get you some edible underwear.” “What?” “Still so innocent.” “And a lot more condoms,” Thea said.
Lizzy’s eyebrows shot up.
“There are three of them! ” Lizzy doubled over laughing.
“This is all so strange,” Thea said.
“Where are my parents?” “They're visiting your uncle's pack back east, looking for information on goddess gifted.” “Do I have any other family here?” “No.
You're an only child.
Neither of your parents was born in this pack.
Your father was the fourth son of an Alpha back east, and he came out here to be Beta.
Your extended family is all back east.
” I “What do I need to know about the pack? How it runs? What I'm supposed to do?” They talked for a while, then Thea remembered they had things to prepare.
“We need to talk to Alessia, ” Thea said.
“What do we need to get prepared for tonight? Are beds ready? Food? I don't even know where the rooms are for these people.” “l'll showyou,” Lizzy said.
Lizzy gave Thea a tour of the pack house.
They stopped at the kitchen to let them know about the incoming refugees.
