“Nothing till now,” I said to her, and she smiled nervously.
“Would you mind if I asked you for something?” Mrs. Black asked me, and I nodded. “You already know that our wolves are acting strange. My wolf considers you the same as it considers Layla and Beth, so she just wanted her children near her. If you don’t mind, can you spend a few days with us?” she said nervously and to say I am shocked is an understatement. I opened my mouth to say something but again closed it. I actually don’t know what to say. She just told me that her wolf treated me like her own, like her daughters, which was a huge thing. My throat was constricted with emotions, so I just nodded and continued eating the food.
“So, what does Aiden want to talk to you about,” Mrs. black asked Mr. black.
“He is planning to organize a mate ball this year in our pack,” he explained.
“So, he is seriously concerned about our children’s mates,” Mrs. Black asked.
“Yeah, he is, especially for Ethan. He thinks that Ethan is going to mark Stella,” Mr. Black said while laughing, but when none of us laughed, he looked at all of us... “Is that true?” his question is directed toward Layla and me.
“No idea, dad, but if we take Stella’s words seriously, then yes, he is planning to mark her,” Layla told him, and Mr. Black pursed his lips in dissatisfaction but did not say anything. After breakfast, Layla and I went to her room while Mr. and Mrs. Black continued to talk about the other pack matters.
“Tell me b***h, what do you want on your birthday?” she told me while she jumped on her bed.
“Nothing,” I said and lay on her bed.
“Just tell me whenever you want anything,” she said to me and closed her eyes. I hummed in response.
We lay there silently for a few minutes. “Layla,” she hummed... “What does your wolf think about the whole mate thing?” I asked her, and she made a thinking face.
“She is both excited and nervous about it,” she told me truthfully “you got emotional downstairs,” she stated, which instantly made me chuckle.
“Yeah, I am used to being called an outcast, but when your mom said that she considers me as her daughter, that made me feel a little emotional,” I replied, and a beautiful smile came on her face.
“You are one of us, addy, and you are not an outcast. You are just different, and people never accept someone different, no matter how much awesome that person is”
“Did you just tell me that I am awesome?” I teased her, and she rolled her eyes.
“I called you b***h earlier, but you didn’t point that out,” she said and smacked her pillow on me, and that’s how our pillow fight started.
Matt joined us at night as he is staying at Layla’s place today. I don’t think Mr. Black is pleased about this idea, but I cannot blame him... {no dad who has two unmated daughters at home would like it if an unmated wolf would come and spend a night at his home} ...
Beth went to sleep just after we had dinner, but Matt, Layla, Mr., and Mrs. Black sat with me till the clock struck midnight. I cut my birthday cake Mrs. Black baked, and Matt gifted me a cool black leather jacket.
Matt and Layla were making further plans for my birthday when Mrs. Black interrupted us and told us sternly to go and sleep. Layla tried to argue, but one pointed look from Mrs. Black, and we gave up. Matt went to the guest room, and I went to Layla’s room with her. I was half asleep when suddenly Layla sat on her bed with a jerk.
“What happened?” I asked her, but as soon as I saw blank expressions on her face and her eyes were unfocused, I knew she was mind-linking.
“s**t,” she cursed and grabbed my hand... “We have to run, addy get up,” she shouted, and we came out of the room. Matt also came outside the guest room while trying to wear his t-shirt. Mr. and Mrs. Black came out of Beth’s room, looking alarmed, while Beth followed them, looking a little scared.
“I have to report at eastern borders,” Matt said and hugged Layla and me. “Take care of my mom, don’t let her go anywhere until everything is sorted out,” he said to us, and we nodded.
“Don’t let any stupid rogue claw your face, don’t forget you still to find your mate,” Layla said, and he chuckled.
“Stay alive,” I said timidly, and he smiled at me and ruffled my hair.
“I will meet you guys later,” he said and ran out of the house.
“Delilah, take all of them to the safe house.” He said and kissed Mrs. Black, and with that, he also ran away from the house.
“Fast girls, we have to take everyone to a safe house,” Mrs. Black told us, and we all ran behind her... {I don’t know why but I am getting the feeling that my birthday is going to be a disaster...}
