Devon's POV
"Come on! Don't sulk," Tyler rolls his eyes as he serves me dinner.
"You really f****d up over there earlier, Devon. And you sulking here instead of talking to her is not going to help you in any possible way," Cassie says to me straight on my face.
Austin and Maxie are sleeping in the other room so I guess now that's two people down for now. Samika created a loyal army for herself here. Tyler and Cassie are now giving me an earful on how my attitude is only ruining her already bad day.
"Okay. So what am I supposed to do? Go to her and act like everything is fine? Because it's not. You people know it's not," I say.
"Oh yes we know it's not. That is exactly why you need to sit your ass with her over there where she is overthinking it all. She took a risk to be here even when she didn't have her wolf. You made her stay. You need to clean your own mess," Cassie says and she walks into her room without even letting me say another word.
Tyler just shakes his head as he walks inside too. I finished my dinner all alone. At first I thought I didn't have an appetite but now I'm hungry maybe because of my shitty mood. I tend to eat a lot when I don't know what to do. When I was around seven to eight years old, all I did was eat because I never really understood why my father was that way and why he never liked me for anything that I did. I resembled a balloon but I quickly understood it was a disorder. I got help.
After eating, I crashed over the sofa in Tyler's home. I know I should go back. I know I should talk to Samika. I know I need to explain. But the thing is, I don't know where to start. I don't know what to do.
My past is coming back to haunt me. It is catching up with me way faster than I thought it would. The one person who I never wished to see again, is here right in front of me. Little did I know he was the person who Samika loves like a brother.
I don't know if Moon Goddess is playing games or she did this just because she was bored, but this is one hell of a turn even in my life. Also in Samika's life. I didn't expect her to turn out into a Madfur. That explains why The Madfurs showed up at the border again and again. They recognised one of their own was existing here even though the bond wasn't strong at that time.
The Madfur clan which was supposedly mentioned as the deadliest of the werewolf tribe. Samika belongs to that tribe. And there was a lot that went into killing the Alpha of The Madfurs two decades ago. Again, I don't want to recall that part of the past that I've been shutting inside for a long time now.
I wonder how Nyle is holding up. He confessed to Samika in the most heroic way just yesterday and he was clueless that he was about to find his mate. That s**t was clueless and surprising even for me.
"Stop thinking and sleep for a while. Let us deal with things tomorrow. It is going to be a long day once Brent wakes up and demands answers," wolf says in the back of my mind and I totally agree.
Brent is going to wake up. And he is going to demand answers. But the main question is..
Will he be able to handle it if I tell him the truth?
