Chapter 0021

A soft knock sounded on my door before it opened and closed. “Sis, what happened?”

Why does turning 18 have to be so much pressure? I don’t want a mate, mates mean feelings and men

are big babies.”

Colt tried to hide theughter from his voice. “Did Alec make a move? I seen the way he looks at you. I

know why Ace is so pis sy.”

“Ace knew the deal, no feelings. He broke that. He can’t be mad at me for sticking to the rules. Alec

told

me I was just a job to him, which for some reason stung. I am not a job.”

“Who would think you would have guy trouble. If it makes you feel better, neither guy is good enough

for

you.” Coltid down beside me.

“What do you think will happen?” I didn’t need to borate for him to know I was talking about us

turning

18.

“We will find our mates and for you, that will go one of two ways.”

“Are you going to break up with Kara before that?” I asked, trying to get the conversation off of me.

“We have had multiple conversations. I told her I was going into the party single and we would see

what

happens.”

“I bet she didn’t like that.”

“No. We agreed she would go in with her friends so it didn’t look like I ditched her since you and I will

walk in together.”

“Speaking of which, I have two dresses to decide on.”

“Oh?”

“One is ck and one is a deep red.”

*Please wear the red as a big F.U to A nn.”

Smiling, I turned to look at him. “d you agree.”

“Don’t tell her that. Tell her you got a ck dress.”

“Technically I did. One will be for prom.”

“Well, ready to go down to supper?” Colt asked.

“Do I have to?”

“Yeah, you kind of do.” Colt gave me a suck it up look.

“As much as I want to get away from here, I’ll miss you.”

“Let’s just wait and see what happens? Promise me you will talk to me before you take off?”

“I promise.” And I meant it. Colt deserved that.

“Good. Get changed ande down.”

“Okay.” Colt got up and left my room.

It took me a second but I was able to roll out of bed and look at myself in the mirror. My hair didnt look

bad but not perfect either. The braid Emmy did was still okay so after applying a lightyer of makeup, I

put on dressy shorts and a V cut button up shirt. Grabbing a pair of sandals, I made my way down

stairs.

“It’s about time you show your face.” An ns shrill voice echoer off the walls. Alpha Marc, Alec, Jasper

and

Emmy had joined us. Ace was beside Jacob and Colt saved me a seat between him and Ace.

“An n…!” Dad said in a stern voice. 3

Piercing my l*ps together, I took my seat and waited to be served.

“It’s good to see you, Ms. Kris.” Alpha Marc smiled at me.

I had opened my mouth to speak but An n jumped in first. “Alpha Marc, how are things going for you?”

Fire burned but I did what I was suppose to and kept my mouth shut. Actually clenching my teeth

together. Colt rubbed my back to help me rx. Looking at him, I gave him a half smile.

“Everything is going great. I actually would love to hear about this tattoo shop.”

My head instantly snapped towards Alpha Marc. The food started toe out. Looking at dad, he

nodded at me. “Thank you for asking, sir. It’s going very well. I have always loved drawing and this

shop

has really allowed me to get creative.”

“Yes! You used to draw all over the walls and spill your paint on the carpet!” An nughed. Dad shook

his head in defeat, No oneughed but A nn.
