Chapter 43

Angie's POV

Throughout the night, I kept hearing howling, screaming, and even some growling. What the heck was going on? I got up and looked out the window; oh, it was a full moon, a night when first shifters did their first shift. Smirking, I hope the one that shifts gets tortured from the pain like I did. Trust me, I felt like I was dying when I did my first shift. I don't like to shift that much, but when I do, I let my lycan run as long as she wants; it makes her strong. I looked further and saw Lucas picking someone up off the ground. Motherfucker, it's that girl's first shift, and he's carrying her. I bet they're going to mate and mark each other. 

Walking out of my room, I watched as he carried her to her room. He went in and out of there several times, bringing up a cupcake, then food to her. The last time, it took a while for him to come out. I thought that's when they were going to do it, but I didn't hear anything; these walls were soundproof, but every now and then, you could hear a moan, a groan, and the girl pleading to the guy to do it harder. That's how loud we can get. I wondered what he saw in her; she's not a lycan; she's a wolf. 

I decided I was going to talk to him one last time - that's what I was doing when I was in his office. I didn't bother knocking when I walked inside the room. He looked up with a frown on his face.

“Angie, I told you to leave me alone, or I will banish you. Do I need to do that now? I'm really getting sick of you just walking in here like you own the place.” Well, I thought to myself, when he made me his queen, I will own this place. But I decided to play it cool, like nothing was really going on right now.

“Lucas, I heard screaming and howling last night. Did someone shift for the first time? When are those people leaving so we can go back the way it was? I'm sure when you get sick of her, you will come back to me.” I knew that wasn't playing it cool; I just got straight to the point. I wanted him for myself, and I will have him. I guess he didn't like what I had to say because I heard him growl; he stood up from the chair, coming around the desk.

“She is my mate, Angie. Be careful what you say about her. I will rip you to shreds. You have five seconds to get out of my office.”

“Wait, Lucas, just hear me out, okay? Don't you miss us? I mean, we spent time together, talked, and got to know each other. We grew up together, Lucas, and you're going to stand there and throw everything away that we had.” I could tell I made him think about this. We grew up together; people even wondered if we were mates. Yeah, I knew me saying that we were did not help much, but what could I say? I wanted him. I didn't get a chance to say anything else when the door slammed open, making both of us jump. We looked toward the door. It was her, and she looked pissed. I looked scared at first, but screw this. She's a weak wolf; she doesn't even know how to fight. I could beat her ass and throw her out. But first, let me stake my claim on my man. I turned, grabbing his face, kissing him hard on the lips. I got jerked back hard, almost falling to the floor.

“What the f*ck are you doing? I think he told you he didn't want anything to do with you, stupid b*tch.” She walked over there, pulling his head down, planting a kiss on his lips. I growled at her; my claws came out. I ran, clawing at her. She punched me right in the face, then kicked me so hard I went flying across the room. I hit the wall hard, sliding down on my ass. She walked over to me, picking me up by my throat. Her eyes were a weird-looking color. What the h*ll was this girl? She sure as h*ll wasn’t weak. I need to do something about this.

“Next time he tells you to leave him alone, you damn better do it,” she threw me out of the office. That stupid f*cking b*tch tossed me out of his office. Oh, that's fine because I have plans for her. Let my father find out; she will be dead in no time at all.

Lucas' POV

Things turned really weird when Angie once again came into my office without knocking. I swear I'm going to need to start shutting my door when I'm inside here doing paperwork. She was talking to me, and I had to admit she made me think for a second until the door flew open, and in came Kayla. She grabbed Angie off of me, planting her own hard kiss on my lips. Damn, it's like that. She kicked Angie's ass. I wanted to laugh, but instead, I just stood there watching them. Once Angie was gone, I grabbed my mate. I thought then things would be fine. I pulled her to me, giving her my own kiss on her soft lips, and trust me, I didn't want the kiss to end. But she jerked back, slapping me across the face.

“And that's for not jerking back when she did kiss you. Just think, I was coming in here to speak with you, and I find that b*tch in here all over you. I wonder who else you slept with and still wanting you," she stormed off. 

What the h*ll was that all about? No one else came to me about anything. If it wasn't for Angie, we would have been talking and maybe making out. Damn it to h*ll and back.
