Dinner was strange First, | don’t usually eat in the packhouse. Since my parents have the own house, we usually eat there unless there is a pack event. But Clint insisted that | eat with him and Anders, which meant that | am sitting with at the ranked wolves. It people hadn’t noticed that | had moved to the packhouse before, they certainly notice that | am getting special treatment by eating with our ranked members.
When | sit, Luna Olivia and Beta Naomi turn their attention to me. “Lily, dear, how have you settled into your room? Do you have everything you need?” Luna Olivia turned to me.
“Oh, Alpha Patrick had my things brought over today. | haven’t checked but | should have everything | need. Thank you.” “If not, please letknow, or Naomi can help you. You are closer to her room if it’s something urgent.” “Thank you both, | really appreciate it. | don’t want to be a burden.‘
“| was thinking it was nice to have another she—wolf at this table.” Beta Naomi whispers so only Luna Olivia and | can hear her. “Too much testosterone if you ask me.” | can’t help but laugh. Both Luna Olivia and Beta Naomi are being very kind to me.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“What are you girls laughing at down there?” Alpha Patrick has turned his attention back to us. No doubt our laughter, or at least the laughter of his mate, has caught his attention. I’ve heard he’s a very attentive mate.
“Oh, we’re just discussing how glad we are that Lily was able to join us for dinner.” Luna Olivia says, winking at me. | try to hide my smile by looking back at my plate.
The conversation starts up again and | look up to see that Clint is watching me. He smiles before starting to eat again..
“So, Patrick, Anders and | are going to join Lily and Calista in their study group tonight. | was thinking that we could use the small meeting room.” Clint says and the table goes quiet.
“You and Anders are joining Lily and Calista in a study group?” Patrick says as if this is a difficult concept to understand. Everyone at the table is staring at him. and Anders.
“Yes. Lily and Calista are used to studying together, and with Lily moving here, 1/2
Calista is going to be coming to the packhouse to study. Clint and | figured we'd join them So, the small meeting room, dad?” Anders answers his father.
“And what, exactly, will you be studying?” Beta Calvin asks. “Well, | need to get caught up on my literature reading.” Clint says. “Yeah, and | need to prepare for an anatomy and physiology test.” Anders says.
Both of them have the most innocent looks on their face that I’ve ever seen. | glance around and see the looks of surprise and exasperation from everyone else at the table.
“Door stays open.” Alpha Patrick says before he goes back to eating.
“Of course, dad. What did you think we were going to do? Geez, get your mind out of the gutter.” And 1 suddenly realize exactly what everyone at the table was thinking and | blush, what I’m sure, is a bright shade of red.
Luna Olivia turns back to me. “Your friends with Calista, isn’t that right Lily?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Oh, yes ma’am. We're best friends, we have been almost all our lives.”
“| don’t know her very well. Tellabout her.” She says with a smile. | see Anders tense up from the corner of my eye. “Well, she’s very smart. She’s a kind and generous friend. Unlike me, she doesn’t want to be a warrior, so she’s working to beca doctor.”
“She sounds like a lovely girl.” Beta Naomi says.
“She really is.” | say and Luna Olivia turns to Beta Naomi. “We should invite her to have dinner here with us tomorrow night.” She turns back to me. “Do you think she would like that?”
“Uh, | think so. I'll ask her when she comes over tonight.” | say, not understanding why Anders looks more and more uncomfortable as this
conversation continues. Clint, on the other hand, seems to be trying hard not to laugh. “How about you introduce us to her when she gets here.” Beta Naomi says. “That way we can invite her ourselves.” “Okay, I’m sure that will make her feel more comfortable about coming tomorrow.” | tell them.
