xavierThe run with Layla went very well. Only the after that had been bad. As soon as we were in human form, she acted strangely. Layla had been dismissive and barely looked at me.A step forward followed by another step backwards. The whole thing was frustrating.Xander answered, "So? Whose fault is it?" "I realize that. That question was unnecessary." He growled, which I gladly returned.I knew it was my fault. But I couldn't change the past, no matter how much I wanted to. At least Layla had stopped trying to reject me. Not that I would let it go, but it still hurts and it hurts a lot.I was now sitting behind my desk in the office. Actually, I would have enough work, but I wasn't concentrating. I was concerned about Layla. All day she was on my mind.Xander asked, "How about we strike up a conversation? You can't work in that state anyway." As if I hadn't had this idea myself long ago.Did he think I was completely underexposed?Annoyed, I replied: "I would have planned that aft

I would have loved to have complied with Lilia's request, but I couldn't. It certainly wouldn't be appropriate behavior. Lilia would freak out completely, at least I almost did.I closed my eyes and tried to calm down. I didn't want to face her with the pitch-black eyes. Especially if Mai was here, then so was Anastasia. It couldn't be otherwise. The two venomous snakes were practically glued to each other.My mum pulled away from me and I dared to open my eyes. They were darker than usual, but at least not pitch black.Lilia said angrily, "Those two beasts! They want an alpha! What's our mate?! An alpha! They must be making eyes at him, but he's ours! Just us! Nobody else! Nobody touches him!" I had trouble keeping calm myself. Didn't make it any easier with Lilia embroidering like that.I turned to Mai and yes, Anastasia was standing next to her. I was right, both were here. I put on a smile and the two poisonous snakes had one on their face for a long time. I could tell by looking

Surprisingly, I slept well that night. It was probably because it smelled like Xavier in here. A divine smell and no wonder it smelled like him in here. It was his room and especially his bed I had slept in. He hadn't come home that night, but I hadn't expected that. When it came to the feral werewolves, he sure had a lot to do. Still, I missed him. That damn mate tape was driving me insane. It wasn't long before I completely spun off the bike.Lilia added her two cents: "No, you only turn completely on the wheel when the heat graces us. That will be fun." I growled at her and replied, "No, this isn't going to be fun." "Yes, you're practically going to jump it, and entirely voluntarily. It'll definitely be fun. You'd be doing us a favor by completing the mate band." How could you be like that? My wolf could be really mean. Happy when I wasn't acting rationally anymore. Lilia continued, "If you guys don't complete it beforehand and work things out, then it's only going to be weird.

Lilia growled, "Kill that bitch!" The anger was unmistakable in her voice and I felt the same way. Lilia didn't get an answer because I was in a frenzy.Mai took a step towards Xavier with a big smile on her face. I'd call it a hideous smile, after all, she dedicated it to my mate.Her look, that was the look she always had on when she wanted to wrap a man around her finger. The woman would not breathe much longer. Did she dare to look at my mate like that? Mai said: "Xavier, you shouldn't waste your time with a pathetic woman like Layla. She's not worth it."Lilia wanted to fight her way through, but I wanted to sort that out. I wanted to end this miserable life.Anger overwhelmed me and I saw red. I walked quickly towards the two of them and was out for murder. I let out a menacing growl that had never crossed my lips before. I had never felt this extreme anger either. Jealousy was also part of it and I was no longer in my right mind.Luckily for Xavier, he took a step back and look

ilia asked in horror, "Did you just ask him when we're going to complete the alliance?" The question was stupid and unnecessary. It was obvious that I had asked that. That's why Lilia didn't get an answer from me.Xavier paused and there was no reply, which unsettled me. Maybe he had changed his mind. Maybe he didn't want the alliance anymore. It was probably the wrong day for something like this. A lot had happened today. How stupid was I? Rarely stupid.I said that of all days. I should have realized it was a stupid idea. Why did I do that? Xavier didn't turn around and said: "I think I misheard." I couldn't make out the tone of his voice and I couldn't see the expression on his face. Yes, it had obviously been an inappropriate question. The best thing I could do was backtrack and I said, "Yeah, you did. I'm sorry I shouldn't have said that."I blushed and turned around. I should go to the bathroom and lock myself in there forever. I should never set eyes on him again. That was wa
