บททั้งหมดของ Mated To Four: บทที่ 51 - บทที่ 60

ALEJANDRA.I rub my sweaty palms on the skirt of my dress.I shouldn’t be nervous. There really is no point to be. I guess… maybe I’m scared of rejection. What if Roshan doesn’t like my idea or… What if he isn’t willing to come with us? What if he wants to stay here in the happy bubble forever?“I don’t want to hide,” I start out. My voice comes out strong considering how nervous I am. “My mates… they have a duty too. Forrest is going to be Alpha one day. And Alpha Romano has been here with us too. But we can’t just stay here.”“Did you not hear what I said about fae who leave here? They usually end up dead, your mother included.” Roshan’s eyes go wide as he pleads his case with me. “Please, Alejandra. I beg you. I lost Mary Ann, I can’t lose you too.”“Come with me.” I scoot close to him, putting a hand on his forearm. “Come back to Shifter Academy. I still need to be trained and you’re the only one who can do it. I want to reintroduce the world to the fae. I want to fight for my

ALEJANDRA. The whole auditorium starts talking loudly all at once, so Alpha Romano has to stop talking for a moment.I get it. This is big news. Huge news. They thought our species was gone. And it was a tragedy—a lesson to all supernaturals. But it’s not true.Once the auditorium quietens, Alpha Romano starts speaking again.“Alejandra is a special girl. Not only is she half wolf, but she is also half fae. I hope that you will all treat her, as well as the other fae, with respect while they are here. They have come to learn with us and socialize with us,” Alpha Muatio says. “Today, we offer the fae peace for the first time in over a millennia. There are those out there that still seek to destroy the fae. It is our duty to protect them. And to my pack, this is an order. You will protect the fae.”Chills break out on my skin and I realize the order is for me too.A lot of eyes turn yellow in the auditorium and I’m certain that if I looked, my own eyes would be yellow too.“As fo

ALEJANDRA. As soon as class is over, I head home, wanting to freaking hide.Roshan says that tomorrow we are going to be working on our powers more, but that we’ll be doing it outside. Which is a relief because the last thing I want is to cause more damage to Shifter Academy. At this point, they need to start sending me bills to pay for all the damage I’ve caused.“That kind of stuff happens all the time,” Desmond tells me, as we sit on the couch that night.Forrest, Phoenix, and Puma are out shifting. They like to allow their wolf out for a run to let off steam and they haven’t been able to do it since the last full moon. They didn’t want to scare any of the fae while we were in Sri Lanka, and I get the feeling if the fae saw them shift, it would’ve scared them.“People blast holes in the wall with their freaky fairy powers?” I raise an eyebrow.He laughs. “No. But we’re shifters. Our tempers run high around the full moon. There have been a few shifters who have punched holes i

ALEJANDRA. After what happened with Ryland, Roshan dismissed class. He knew I was too upset to really keep training. My mates took me home and Desmond made a huge dinner with a ton of comfort foods. We ate while watching some silly movie. And now that I’m feeling better, I know that Forrest and I need to talk. Apparently Forrest is on the same page because he asks the guys if they will let us talk alone for a bit.“How are you doing after today?” Forrest puts his arm behind me, playing with my hair. He’s probably trying to distract me from how bad I feel, which is sweet.“I just feel guilty for hurting Ryland.” I sigh. “I can’t believe I did that. What if I had killed him?”“Didn’t Roshan say that the light blast couldn’t kill somebody unless that is your intent?”I nod.“Then don’t worry so much. We’re supernatural. We’re not as fragile as humans are.” He continues to run his fingers through my hair, probably messing it up, but I can’t bring myself to care right now. That feels

ALEJANDRA. Tonight, the guys and I are having dinner with Roshan. I invite Margot to come too, just because I really want to introduce her to Roshan. I think she’s technically already met him, which is also what I want to talk to her about—why did she pretend to not know who my father was? And why did she tell him that she didn’t know where I was? I have so many questions for her and I intend to ask her tonight. I can smell the curry cooking when we walk into Roshan’s house. Apparently he is cooking jackfruit curry. I guess jackfruit grows in abundance in Sri Lanka and so they cook with it a lot. All I know is that it smells and looks amazing. We show up just minutes before Margot does. Margot looks a little uncomfortable when she walks in and I can’t blame her. For whatever reason, she lied to Roshan about not knowing where I was. I imagine anybody would feel bad in her situation, but whatever her reasons were, I know it had to be a good reason. I’m not that upset about it. When
