Camilla POV I chuckle at Gina's words." No one is doing that. Can't I dress up for myself?" I reply but the look on her face tells me that she is not convinced." Camilla,your dressing code tonight screams screw me, Daddy." Gina replies and I just roll my eyes at her. I look at myself in the mirror again. I do look like a woman ready to get laid. Is this the goal Theo had in mind for tonight?My hair is up in a bun with a few strands of hair left out to frame my face. My make up is minimal but it is still able to bring out my full lips and big eyes. " Maybe I'll allow it if someone worth it requests to screw me tonight." I say and Gina giggles." Good luck then. I'll be waiting home to be fed with all the gossip about it. Be careful though." Gina informs me. " I will be careful. As per the gossip,I can't promise you. I am attending a welcome party, not going to a sex club." I inform her and Gina laughs." Well, you never know what these parties could turn into. Might find a good p
Camilla POV My heart skips a beat from Alex's words." What do you mean by that?" I ask just to make sure I heard him right. Is Alex suggesting I should leave the pack? Why does it feel like he knows something and I don't? And at the same time,he doesn't want to be open about it?" After you finish your medical exam,find a job in the city. If you decide to start your own clinic,you can tell me and I'll support you. Just start your life elsewhere and follow your dreams. Find someone good and get married." Alex suggests. I take a moment to gather my senses,to confirm if Alex just proposed something like that to me." Camilla,I only want to see you happy. I want my ever smiling sister back. I feel like you are trapped in this pack. You've been disappointed so much in this place,I don't want to see you disappointed again in the future." He adds." But this is my home and my family is here." I try to argue." That's true but do you know what will make us, your family even happier? It's se
Camilla POV Theo's voice booms in my mind. I momentarily halt in my steps. That voice makes me excited. For a moment,I forget about my worries when I hear his voice. Even my wolf purrs insíde me in delight.It's crazy right? Me getting excited over another man who is not my mate. What is even more crazy is the fact that he is my mate's ' father '. I shouldn't feel this way,I should remember Gina's warning but I can't help it. I am indeed acting pathetic. Just learning that he has something for me and I am all excited, like I wasn't finally contemplating if I want to continue this wretched relationship?" I'll be there in a few." I find myself answering before I can stop myself. My feet start moving to the direction of his office. Standing outside his office,I knock. Being daytime,you don't want to be seen doing something as disrespectful as entering the Alpha's office without knocking. The pack has always followed rules to the latter and being Alex's sister can't save me from discipl
Camilla povI fight the urge to lash at my wolf and offer Hector a smile. " No need. I have everything handled." I turned his offer down. First because we are not as close as we were before and second because it's true, I have everything handled. The smile on his face falters but he schools his emotions immediately. " I miss the old us.” Hector suddenly blurts, a far away smile on his face as if remembering something sweet. " When we could be around each other without this awkward tension." He says gesturing between us." We had dreams too. You always wanted to be a doctor and take over your mother's legacy. You struggled to make that dream true. I remember when you were preparing for your college entrance exam and I teased you saying that you didn't have to study so hard. If you failed, you could come back and be my Luna and together, we would rule the pack together. " Hector continued reminiscing, a chuckle leaving his lips at the memory." And I snapped at you." I say softly, a
Camilla POV I haven't stopped thinking about what Gina said to me yesterday. If I want something,I should fight for it. But is there something to fight for to begin with? When we entered into this relationship, everything was made clear.Why fight for what will never be yours? I should be grateful and just enjoy it while I still can.I didn't get to sleep well last night, immersed in thoughts. Today is the last day before I head to the city for my exams. I am not in the mood to do anything so I decide to sleep in.I don't get to do that when someone knocks at my door. I groan and turn around in the bed,trying to ignore whoever that is. The knocking gets louder,so I decide to get up."Coming!"I yell at the door,while I put on a T-shirt.I open the door and find Gina on the other side. "Yes,Gina?""Good morning,sleepy head. Are you going to lay in bed all day?" She asks. She is smiling at me as if last night was nothing but my imagination. She looks nothing like the woman who scolded me
Camilla povGina stares at me as if what I just said was the most absurd thing ever. Maybe she is considering what she knows about my relationship with Theo. " Camilla, " she calls, her voice strained. I fight my tears from falling and fake a smile. " I know, Gina. You don't need to tell me that I'm pathetic. " I say, looking away. " That's not what I wanted to say, Camilla. " Gina says, taking my hand. I look at her, tears stinging my eyes." What did you want to say then? That you think I should leave him because I deserve better? " I say, not letting the tears fall.Gina looks at me for a long time. I feel as if she's studying me, looking for an answer I'm not sure of." That this is getting more messy than we anticipated. I also want to say that Theo is a bastard. " Gina finally says, her tone neutral.I nod, agreeing with her. Theo is indeed a bastard. Confessing to me while aware of our situation was really heartless of him. It's like dangling a candy before a child who is dy
