Lily sighed deeply, in despair. "What happened to pull out? What happened to condom! Why did no babies till the formal mating ritual when he marks you in front of the whole tribe! What happened to protection! You did not use protection?"The face of Flora burnt, and she nodded. Yes... we... we had not used protection. I... he was my mate." She kept lying. She was unable to inform Lily the truth. Not yet. Not ever.Lily folded her arms and scowled. We must inform your mother, Flora. She has to know about this. This you can not do yourself.Flora's stomach sank. She had hoped to delay that conversation as long as she could. Lily... maybe... maybe I can speak to her later? I just--""No," Lily said firmly. It is not something you can escape. She will discover sooner or later, and had better tell her now.Flora had not yet answered, when the door was knocked on. It was opened by Lily, and Mrs. Bennett stood before her. Her hands were clasped together, her forehead scowled, and her eyes gl

It took weeks after the incident at the birthday party of Selena. Flora attempted to concentrate on her life, but her thoughts were usually going back to that night. She had gone today with Lily to the pack grounds to see the young pups being trained. The sun was pleasant, the grass warm under their feet, and the laughter and the barks were all about them. Flora almost felt normal, almost at peace.That is one, Lily said. "He's determined but clumsy. Like dad was when he was their age.Flora chuckled softly. "Yeah, he really is. They are quite lively, it is pleasant to see them doing so.They leaned against the fence, and watched the pups tumbling and running, and at one time growling at each other in play. It was a cool morning, and, as it were, Flora almost forgot all the rest. Almost.Then a voice broke the silence."Flora! Wait!"She turned sharply. Ryan Carter was running at them with a blushed, desperate face. Her stomach sank."Ryan?" Lily replied, moving a little forward towar

Later that day Flora met Lily in her house. Lily threw open the door and her bright green eyes fixed on those of Flora."Look I can explain, it..." Flora started explainingI know about Ryan and Selena, Lily said interrupting Floria, "I know what happened to Ryan and Selena.Flora froze. It is not what she was anticipating but it is good. Her fingers strangled in her bag. "You... you know?"Lily shrugged lightly. "Dad told me."Flora's chest tightened. "He did."Yes, I suppose so, said Lily with a little smirk. I am thinking of getting Dad to send over a few guards to give Ryan and Selena a lesson... maybe exile them out of the pack a little. She laughed and shook her head. "No, I won't dwell on that. I swear I will ensure that Ryan is fired. That's enough justice for now."Flora managed a small laugh. "Good," she said. ""Yep," Lily replied quickly. "Anyway, enough about Ryan. What did you do on the weekend at my moms place? Didst thou... get into trouble when I was absent? Flora rel

Flora awoke to the light of the sun shining through the curtains. She scowled and the occurrences of the previous night gradually returned. She sunk as she knew that Marcus was not in the bed anymore. The papers were messed up, hot where she had been lying on them.She leaned her legs to the edge of the bed and her feet came in contact with the cold wood. Her head throbbed slightly. Panic hit her first. What if Lily walked in? Suppose that Marcus said something? She needed to leave. Now.Flora silently picked her clothes on the floor and got dressed. She did not even go to the mirror. She just wanted to disappear. She had a shaky finger when tying her shoes and walked down the stairs cautiously hoping to get out unchallenged.Her nose was assailed to the bottom by the aroma of cooking. She froze.Marcus was standing at the stove, turning eggs, and had an apron over his T-shirt. He looked up and saw her. His eyebrows shot up.“Good morning,” he said in his calm voice.Flora’s throat we

Flora Bennett was not anticipating to walk into anything that night. She went to the apartment of Ryan Carter, just to deliver the watch on which he had been hinting weeks. Their argument of the previous night was still lingering in her mind and she wanted to straighten out things–at least, she thought she did.With her spare key she walked in. The living room was dark, and she was able to hear voices in the corridor. Her immediate attention was drawn to a soft laugh, which she recognized, and which was sharp.Her stomach tightened. Selena. Ryan’s “best friend.”Flora’s heart skipped. She got closer, and then stopped as she glanced through the door of the bedroom.Selena was sitting on top of Ryan in the bed, loosely haired and her body was in contact with his. Her waist was being pulled by Ryan. Their lips touched each other, lingering and slow.Flora’s throat went dry. She swallowed hard.“Baby… you are too good,” Selena said. “She does not even know what you like.”Ryan groaned. “S
