Both Cleo and Lakeisha looked at each other, Andi was in no shape to look into anyone’s future. Sensing what her sisters were going to say to her she decided to cut them off. “Like I said before. I’ll be fine. It won’t take me long.”
She got ready, avoiding looking at herself in the mirror. She didn’t want to see how ghastly she looked. It was still cool enough to wear a hoodie in the morning. Andi didn’t put on a shirt just her hoodie and black leggings. Her boots were by the front door. Cleo and Lakiesha had gone back to bed. She knocked on both of their doors. “I’m leaving. Be back soon.”
Andi opened the door and locked it. She hurried over to Greek row. Cynthia’s sorority was one she liked visiting. They were forward thinking women. She had hoped that the none of their futures would be bleak. It was nearly eight am when she got there. Just as she was about to knock on the door. Cynthia opened it. She clapped her hands together. It was weird to see her so early in
Andi begrudgingly woke up at the insistence of Cynthia. She waved her hand hoping to smack her for doing this. “I’m up. I’m up.” She sat up in the bed, sleep still in her eyes. She rubbed her hand over her face and blinked several times. It was when she looked around the room to see where the girl was that she noticed the clothing on the bed. “What’s this? Are you going out?” Cynthia smiled at her then grabbed her hands pulling her up. “No, but you are.” Once Andi was standing Cynthia placed her hands together and pleaded for forgiveness. “Don’t kill me but I knew you wanted to look amazing for your first date and the sisters and I thought we would help you look less RAWR…” She moved her hands in a cat like motion. “And more MMM.” She placed her hand by her chin. “Are you mad?” Andi couldn’t think long enough. “Yes, but I appreciate the gesture. I just wished you had told me because I had planned on going shopping today.” She sighed out of frustration. “Ah damn it. I
Jace waited for her to leave before he got up out of the bed. He didn’t want her to see him in his boxer shorts. That was the only way he could sleep. His body ran hot even before he made the change. He grabbed his phone and tried to call her. He mumbled to himself. “I could have just sent this in a text.” He tilted his head scratching near his ear. The call went to voicemail leaving him to send her a message. He wasn’t sure what she could have been doing but it was important that they talked. Jace sent her a message hoping she would call him soon. [Hey need 2 tlk asap] He pulled on his pajama bottoms. Right when he grabbed for a shirt, his senses heightened. The smell of bacon wafted into his room. Corrine may have been annoying to every possible extent but she truly did know him. With his shirt in his hand, he left out of his room. There she was standing in his kitchen next to the stove, an apron tied around her waist. If he were remotely attracted to her, he would have sn
“I see. That’s a shame but I understand. We had already started getting her beyond perfect for you. In case you were wondering.”He thought about what she could possibly be wearing that would make her perfect for him. “Can I talk to her?”“Sure but she cant hold the phone. Would you be fine if we put it on speaker? I mean every girl in here will be able to hear you.”Just then he heard a small argument on the other end of the line. He wasn’t sure what was going on over there but then he heard her voice, her voice that made him want to be with her. “Hey! Ignore her. She’s just annoying.”He could feel his heartbeat racing in his chest. “You shouldn’t be mean to family.”“So, haven’t you heard? I’m a fortune teller? A gypsy? A shaman.”He chuckled earing her call herself a fortune teller. He had heard the rumors but chose to ignore them.
He knew what she was going to say before she even said the words. “Mom, if Corrine wanted me to join her, she wouldn’t have left me behind.”She raised her left eyebrow and folded her arms over her chest. “Jace, we will talk about this after the wedding.”“Yeah, mom afterwards.” He already had his plan to be gone before that even happened.She grabbed him by the arm and made him escort her inside. The two of them walked in the doors to see the rest of their pack standing around waiting for the ceremony to get underway. When they see their Luna coming in, with the future alpha they all greeted them with a smile. Jace tried to shy away from them. But one member clapped him on the back and grabbed his hand in a handshake. Ileana spoke in the soft tone she always did. “The ceremony will be starting we should shed our human façade now and be the wolves we are meant to be.”Jace kissed her on the chee
Jace had stayed long enough to see his sister get married. The guy wasn’t bad per say but not someone he would have wanted her to be with. The reception was underway with everyone dancing. Corrine stood off to the side watching as the others enjoyed themselves. Jace watched her, watching others and realized he should try to make amends.He walked over to her and bumped into her shoulder. “You still mad at me?”She tried to ignore him but he wouldn’t allow that to happen. He kept nudging her until she as angry enough to snap at him, “Stop you dummy.”“I got you to say something to me so who’s the dummy now?”“Still you.”He turned to face her and held out his hand. “Would you like to dance?”Corrine looked down at his hand then to his face. She sighed; she really couldn’t resist him. “Fine but you really should think about what you’re doing to me.&
Andi rolled her eyes at how Cynthia contradicted herself. Jace held his arm out for her to grasp. She was hesitant to loop her arm in his, instead she opted to walk next to him. Jace couldn’t help but to tease her. “You too good to hold my arm?”“No, I never gave you the impression that I liked you the way the other girls do.”He nodded his head and gave her a winning smile. “You say that now but I’ll make you so in love with me that you will want to touch me every chance that you get.”She raised her left eyebrow at him wondering where he got all that confidence from. “You certainly have a big head. Shouldn’t you focus your attention on the many women that want you already?”“If I wanted them, I would be out on a date with them and not you.”She turned away from him trying to hide the smile creeping onto her face. “I could have sworn I told you before flattery will
She let go of his hand not sure how to react to being talked to like that. If he knew she was the goddess of future fate, what would he do? It was strange though she couldn’t fully see his future or his death. Thinking that she wondered what he could be that would keep her from seeing his future. Andi looked at him, staring hard trying to see if there was any indicator that he was any different than a normal mortal.Jace tilted his head. The way she was gazing at him made him feel warm all over. It was as if she was undressing him with her eyes. “If you want to have a little bedtime fun then maybe the quarter isn’t where we should be.”She snapped out of her musing. “Talking about having sex with me will get you punched.”“You won’t punch me. besides I maybe a gentleman but I will not let anyone but their hands on me unless its intimately.”She had watched enough mortals to know when to switch up and c
Andi stopped in front of a clothing store that was just about to close. The name of the store was Illusion. There were clothing she wanted to try on, fall like colors. She was so absorbed in a red plaid skirt when she heard a voice behind her. “You’d look good in anything.” Turning around she seen Jace was there.He spoke again, “With your beautiful skin tone you would look good in anything.”“Yeah, that’s a lie. I’ll stick with my blacks and purples.”Jace grabbed her hand and pulled her inside the store. The clerk looked up upon hearing the bell ringing. They both could see the annoyance written on her face. Jace quickly gave a winning smile. “We won’t be but ten minutes. Swear.”Andi could see how the woman just melted under his stare. She could have sworn she felt something similar from that gaze but let it go. He then grabbed the red plaid skirt and a soft yellow orange shirt. He
