Under The Shadow Of The Lycan Brothers 112
Mia's POV:“What? I like gummy bears so what?” Genevieve said with a shrug. She grabbed a bowl and emptied one of the packets in it. After taking a bite of one, she held the bowl to us. “Want some?”I grabbed one of them and tossed it into my mouth. “It’s a sugar rush,” I said, going around to get started on another dish.“Exactly,” Genevieve said, her body doing a happy dance.We spent the next hour talking and cooking. We baked a cake and some chocolate chips. After that, we gathered in the living room and spent ten minutes trying to decide what to watch.After a while, we were full and Felicity was beginning to drift to sleep. Genevieve grabbed her wine glass and hit it lightly with her fork.“Attention, attention, ladies.” She said. I smiled. “For the highlight of tonight, I want to celebrate the girls I've become friends with in Lycan Ville.”Felicity blinked awake while Melanie looked sharp. “But first, before I get into some chummy speech of thick and thin and how we managed to

Mia's POV:I smiled at him, a bit awkwardly. This sounded very much like a love confession. “William.”Before I could continue, my phone began to ring. It was Melanie. “Shit.” I let out, answering the phone. “I'm so sorry. I got carried away, I'll be right there.”I hung up. “I'm also happy to see you, William, but I have to go meet my friend. She's waiting for me.” I turned to head towards the checkout.“Wait one moment,” William told me. He hurried away and returned with a jar of pickles. He smiled. “You dropped this.”I smiled. “Thank you.” I walked towards checkout and just as I was about to pay, William beat me to it and swiped his card. “You didn't have to.”“Come on, Mia. There's no way I'm letting you pay for groceries when I'm right here.” He said. “Come on, I'll drive you. Where are you headed?”“Don’t worry about it. I drove here.” I replied.William briefly looked shocked but then he chuckled. “I've forgotten. It's been nine years. You're not fifteen anymore. Of course, yo

Mia's POV:I stopped at the hardware store, letting Melanie off. I would pick her up on the drive back. I drove back to the grocery store and grabbed a small basket.I immediately headed for the milk, grabbing a large keg. After that, I got the gummy bears, a few more chocolates, and the chips. As I passed by the pickles, I realized that I hadn't gotten some. These were Melanie's favorites. But I didn't know what brand she liked.As I was checking the label on one, I took a picture and sent it to Melanie. “These right?”Melanie texted back: yes. my life is yours!I chuckled.“Mia?”When I turned to the voice that had called me, the smile wiped from my face. I dropped the jar of pickles to the ground, shattering it.The dead were back to life.“William?” I called back.It was impossible. William was dead. He had been dead for years. But, how was he here? In front of me, calling my name?He looked like William but he also didn't. He was broader, his muscles more defined. His eyes looked

Mia's POV:I never guessed that Genevieve didn't like Felicity. Or maybe it was just that Genevieve wasn't friends with her. They just needed to hang out more to get closer.I was sure that they would like each other.Although I was tired, I called Terry and told him that he should not bother picking Melanie up. I drove straight to the orphanage. Some of the kids saw me and hugged me, almost knocking me off my feet.I missed working here. With everything that had been happening with my mentees, I was barely at the orphanage.“Can you get me, Miss Melanie?” I asked one of the older kids. “Tell her I said it's time to go home.”A couple of moments later, Melanie walked over to me, her black bag in her hand. She smiled when she saw me. “You're showing off your new ride.” She said.I smiled, waiting for her to walk over to the other side to get in. I got in through the driver's seat, saying bye to the kids. Melanie tossed her back into the backseat.“I know how to drive now so of course I

Mia's POV:I drove Armani's mom back to her apartment to get her bags. She was going to grab a bus to a couple of towns over and then another bus before her sister would pick her up and drive her off to where she lived.We gave Chloe and her family the space they needed. Her bags had been packed in my trunk so, I had just dropped them over.“Thank you so much for everything, Mia,” she said as we stood by the ticketing booth.“You're welcome.” I smiled back. She looked back at the booth and then gave me a small smile. As she turned to leave, I stopped her. “Here. Use this to start something.”I placed the white envelope in her hand. It was fat, filled with dozens of 100-dollar bills. Her eyes widened and she shook her head. “No, I can't take this. I don't deserve it.”“Take it, Armani died for this money. But I donated it to the orphanage because I know that you won't want to spend that kind of money. This is from me to you.” I explained, letting go. “Take care of yourself.”She looked

Mia's POV:He shook his head and smirked. “No. It's because I like you and your little motley crew. It makes me a little jealous you have people like that. Keep them. You'll need them.”And then he was gone.Strangely, I felt his absence. He carried with him some kind of aura. Maybe it was because he was undead and also immortal. Still, I wondered how old he was and knew for sure that it would get lonely.But, Cassian would never admit it.***Finally, the trial for the murder of Pedro Infante and Armani was done. The murder had been done by the same person. He was a man with peculiar features. It had been easier to identify him after Hermes’ description.The killer's prints had been found around Armani's ankle. That was the only place that it had been found. The killer wore gloves to avoid his fingerprint from getting everywhere. It was like he was a professional at killing.Anyway, at Armani's trial, I had driven Chloe and his mother to court. Yes, driven. The trial had taken so lon
