Chapter 0080
I smile at her, gulping. “Then I’m glad. I really like you, and wou hate to see you hurt.”
Even if her words should make me calm down, the way she says them, and her laugh paired with how she moves as she says then make me doubt that they are honest.
But I shake my head, dismissing the thought, thinking that I will address it with Logan in a quiet moment.
‘Scum and cheaters. You just are attracting all of it, aren’t you?‘ Cassy groans condescendingly.
‘Well, your honey boo, Rick, was the cheater. I’m sure that none o my mates now are,‘ I retort annoyed and I feel her steer to get back at me but just as she is about to do it, another growl resounds in my head.
‘Shut up! Logan doesn’t cheat. None of us would cheat on mate.‘
I chuckle to myself while Cassy scoffs, retreating into the back of my
head.
“Thank you, Drake,‘ I say, making him purr happily.
“So, what’s it now, doc?” Lisa asks, tearing me away from the conversation in my head.
“Dr. Davies offered me a position in the pack hospital, but I asked him for a bit of time to think about it. I think I will take up the offer but I want to be useful to the pack first, get to know as many people as possible, and help as much as I can.” I tell her and ignore another stupid remark from her.
As I listen to her speaking, I make the stupid mistake of getting distracted by a movement in the corner of my eye and I look to the entrance of the venue, seeing Fynn walk out of it.
He is just passing his hand through his hair, flexing his muscles in a delectable way unconsciously. I get dragged into a state of trance, making Lisa’s voice sound like a constant hum as it passes into the background.
I can understand that she gushes over Logan as he is gorgeous, but I think it’s strange that she is so set on him as Fynn is bulkier, he is taller, his strong shoulders wider, and his perfectly trained legs make his pants look like they are to burst any minute.
Drake chuckles in my head, and I jump as Lisa clicks her fingers in front of my face. “Missy! Are you listening to me?”
“Sure, yeah. Fine for me,” I stutter, blinking repeatedly.
She smiles, clapping her hands excitedly, “Awesome! I can’t wait.”
As she squeals, I panic.
Oh my Goddess, what did I agree to?
‘Why can’t you never listen?‘ Cassy scoffs but Drake laughs.
No worries, mate. She just asked you to go to the ball with her.”
‘Oh, thanks Goddess,‘ I breathe out relieved, and concentrate back on Lisa.
“Well, that’s all I wanted. See you at dinner, luv,” she blows me a kiss. “Ah, and good luck with the Luna plan. Take my advice and think about it again as you could actually have a good chance at it.” Before she can get off the scaffold, I grab her arm, making her look at me confused. “Wait. What did you mean by that?”
“Nothing. Sorry, I just wanted to be funny,” she shrugs, snickering.
“No, wait. Daisy already made a comment like that. There has to be something no one is telling me. What is it?” I ask distraught.
Her face morphs into a worried expression and she opens her mouth several times just to close it back again and finally gets saved by the idiot. “Don’t push it, prins. That is a pack matter, nothing some outsider should know.”
“Stop insulting me. I’m a member of this pack,” I stump my foot idiotically, as I turn to look down at him.
Now it really looks like some stage.
Like stupid Romeo having the audacity to insult Juliet on her own balcony.
“Ha,” he pushes out mockingly. “Mind link Lisa then.”
Gripping the steel railing of the scaffold, I growl, but before I can retort something, he beats me to it, laughing mockingly. “See?! Don’t show off until some poor soul has to mark you.”
With a groan, I detach a steel bar from the scaffold and throw it at him. Naturally, he dodges it easily, laughing like the entitled asshole
he is.
“Don’t listen to him,” Lisa says as he walks away with a few
warriors who look up at me with a grin, enraging me even more. You have Logan. He is better anyway.”
“For goodness‘ sake, Lisa,” I breathe out. “Just tell me what it is.”
