Chapter 30: more problems-1

The school day passed in a blur – students submitting assignments, taking exams, getting ready for holidays, the football team having a game later today.

school was finally over, and it was time to head home. I'm not looking forward to having dinner with my mates girlfriend and her family. Lily and I were walking towards the exit when she asked me, "Sofia, what's going on? You've been a bit distant, barely ate your lunch. Is something wrong?"

I said, "I don't know... Damian... ex girlfriend or girlfriend is in the pack and she kissed him in front of me.

Lily said, "Hold up, he had another girlfriend aside from Vanessa?"

I said, "Well, yes and She's not a wolf, another species, but I didn't get to know what species she is."

What got me really angry is the fact that she hugged him, and he hugged her back, acting all romantic in front of me.

He didn't even acknowledge my existence when she was there. I think... I think that man is going to hurt me again. I think he's going to disappoint me. This is why I didn't want to give him a chance.

Lily hugged me telling me to calm down, that it might be a misunderstanding, and I should hear him out. She said that in these few months, she's seen the way Damian's been making an effort to make things work with me, and I shouldn't let some girl take my mate away from me. I should fight for my mate.

I said, "What's there to fight for?" My wolf is awfully quiet, not acting all possessive about Damian, so it's not helping matters.

She said, "Maybe just find out who the mystery girl is, and don't jump into conclusions, okay?"

While we were talking, Philip pulled over. I hugged her, and we said our goodbyes. I entered the car, and Philip and I exchanged greetings, chatting for a while. He complained about the girl, how bratty and rude she is, tormenting omegas in the pack house, commanding everyone like she's the boss.

I looked at him and said, "Maybe she's your luna-to-be."

He said, "Never. Our luna-to-be is you. we recognise you. Besides, nobody wants a werebear as our future Luna."

I looked at him and said, "What? She's a werebear?"

He said, "Yeah, she's a bear. She came with her father, a high elder in Bearmont. He came to discuss important matters with the alpha. She and Damian... they dated for a bit when he went to Bearmont for training."

I said, "Oh, alright."

We finally got to the pack house. I came down, and the luna was standing in front, looking at me. "Sofia, my darling, thank you for coming," she said.

I said, "Well, I didn't have much of a choice."

She said, "I know this seems... bad, but just hear Damian out. He and Beth had a small fling, but it was nothing serious. You are his mate, and nothing's going to change that fact. No one's going to take your place in his life."

I looked at her and said, "The only reason Damian's with me is because I'm his mate. He doesn't love me. Maybe Beth the girl he loves. First Vanessa, now another girl... there's no way I'm competing with her."

She said, "There's no need to compete, Sofia. You're very beautiful, more than she is. Just... let it go, everything will be okay between you and Damian. I will make sure of that okay.? I nodded.

We were having small talk, when the alpha joined us. and I greeted him. We headed inside, sat down to have dinner. I sat at the chair close to the luna, and Damian immediately came to sit beside me. I was still giving him the cold shoulder. He mind -link me saying I miss you baby, let me come over to your place later so we spent time together.. okay? I responded saying okay honestly I miss him too.

Lily is right. I won't let some girl take my man away from me.

I saw the omegas bringing out food, and I saw my sister Vanessa. She wasn't looking good, looked worn out, not like her old self, making me have a slight pain in my chest. She may be a bad sister, but she's my sister, and the way she's looking... I'm not comfortable with it. I hope there's a way to make the punishment end. Not shifting into your wolf for a very long time... it's a punishment worse than death.
