Chapter 0054
“A lot of this has gone on in your presence and you were too caught up in yourselves to notice, you
nonverbally gave permission for this to happen to me and, more importantly, to others. So no, you
don’t get to “handle this’ or ‘deal with it’.” I air quote. am handling it in my own way, and that’s the
way it’s going to stay. LET. IT. GO!” I turned and started walking off before I got so angry I shifted in
front of them.
My muscles are shaking, and my wolf is clawing to get out and beat all of them.
Luna Ava POV
I jumped off the couch when I started to hear shouting from the back yard.
Lucas followed me to the balcony.
I can see the boys gathered together just outside the pool and Skylar at the edge of the patio
soaking wet and looking ready to murder them.
Sierra must be just out of sight, I can still smell her here though.
Not all of their words travel up to me, but they must have really done a number on her for her to look
like that.
I can only see the backs of the boys heads, but they appear hesitant to move at all.
“I still did everything that was ever asked of me.
I showed up, did the work, became the best at everything.
The perfect daughter, the perfect student, the perfect warrior and no one took notice then.
You never gave a sh*t before I was a part of your friend group, until you deemed me good enough.”
I looked at my brother pointedly.
“Delta Kyle and the Luna noticed eventually,” I looked at Sam and the twins with my best glare.
“and that was just as instructors. They respected my wishes and let it go. Sierra noticed the first day
we met, she didn’t even know me, and she respected my wishes and let it go. You five have known
me MY WHOLE F*CKING LIFE and didn’t notice or give two sh*ts until right now. You don’t get to
be protective now, it’s too late. I don’t need you to step in now.”
She turned to walk away and I turned to go into the house.
Determined to find out what they were fighting about and fix it.
Lucas grabbed me from behind and pulled me back to his chest.
“Let her go and let them sit with this. Whatever they did to upset her, she set them straight and they
need to figure out how to fix it on their own.” He says low in my ear, reading my mind as usual.
“My poor girl, did you see her face?” I turn to look at him.
“She has already been through so much and we haven’t done much to help.”
“We can’t step in each time a pack member is a terrible parent or when kids are having trouble at
school. No matter how close we are to them. We can’t show favoritism like that. And you know I am
already doing what I can at school, but I have to keep it by the books. We can’t investigate properly
if people think we are looking for something. They will figure this out, Love.”
Lucas turns me and pulls me into his chest.
“She’s so special, you can already see the bond with the boys, I don’t know if I have heard it
happening this early before.
I don’t even think they have caught onto what is happening.
“Are you kidding? Right now we would have to smack them upside the head with a smart stick to
get them to notice.
Even Skylar told them, they pay no attention to details.
They are still 16 year old boys.” He chuckles into my hair.
“She is going to be amazing though, did you see them stop in their tracks? She might be more
intimidating than you are.
Kyle says he’s never seen anything like her on the training field, even in the Alpha King’s ranks.
The border patrol keeps an eye on her when she runs the border and says she is faster everytirne
and her wolf is beautiful.
She has never been left alone, not after last year. Let these boys learn to grovel, I have a feeling
they will have to do a lot of it. She has to learn to survive this and askfor help. She will be okay.”
“I hope so.” I say into his chest.
“She just has to survive high school first.
