Chapter 22

-MILA-

After Selene had left, Lobo seemed to avoid me as much as possible. Not that I could blame him considering the bombshell he had dropped.

It was getting dark by the time I went outside to call Lowell.

I needed to hear his side of the story.

I half expected for him to ignore my call, but he answered it.

"Hey, Mila. How are you?"

"I'm fine. But I need to speak to you about something important."

"What is it?"

"Lobo... He told me the truth about me being his mate. And he also told me that it was your idea not to tell me."

"Mila, I would much rather have this conversation in person."

"I just need to know if it's true. Why would you hide this from me?"

"Mila, I had a lot of good reasons. Again, I would rather we have this conversation in person and not over the phone. Can you come to see me tomorrow?"

"I guess. I need answers."

"I know. Come see me and we'll talk. I will tell you everything."

"Thank you." I hung up and went back inside, Lobo was standing in the hallway staring at me.
