Chapter 0336

“For your information you son-of-a-b*tch." He turns slowly back to me, complete anger contortinghis usually handsome features while he holds his cheek. “My mother died giving birth to me, I hatemy birthday. My friends, all of them, as in plural or more than one since you seem to be slow on theuptake, get me something with rainbow colors for my birthday.”

I hold up my cuff with the rainbow colored leather. “Each color represents a different friend, it’s to letme know they are thinking of me. So maybe before you go accusing people of deceit, you shouldget the whole story."

I push him again before walking away.

“SKY! WAIT! I"M SORRY!” He shouts at my back, but I just keep walking.

“I'm here Little One, just keep walking. As soon as he’s out of sight I'll get you.”

"Why can’t the brand take pain too? He didn't hurt me really, but I don't like being accused ofcheating or leading people on. I would never do that to someone. I can't even feel affection for himand I still didn't go after any other guys even when he stopped giving me information.”

"Pain lets us know we're still alive. It lets us know that something is wrong. We cannot take painaway, but we can work through it. You're almost to me. Let's go for a run."

“Okay.” I sniffle back my tears and take a deep breath. I will work through this like I work througheverything else that

has frustrated me over the years. I will let my wolf out, let her take control and protect me until I canget my head on straight again.

I don't talk to Osiston, Nickolas or even Mina about what happened. Someone wanted a result andthey got it. I don't know if Sam and the guys were trying to get under my skin, or if they were tryingto push Tyler away or maybe thought he would be jealous and fight for me, but I was used, and Idont appreciate it at all.

I leave my phone on airplane mode most days. I use it only for music when I workout...alone. Ifanyone needs to talk to me they can mindlink me. I know I'm being followed, I can always feel apresence near me, but I don't ask who it is or acknowledge them.

I have switched from sharing a room with Mina to staying in one of the other guest rooms with mydoor locked if I am home. I still go to classes, I just make sure that I am surrounded by other peopleso Tyler, Mike and Mina can't sit nexttome. *

I shift and run almost every night with Osiston hot on my tail. He says nothing just lets me go andkeeps me from doing anything to jeopardize our mission.

Three weeks after my disastrous birthday, Mina comes into my room. She picked the lock and triedand failed to make a joke of being proud of herself. I was sitting on my bed doing homework, likethe good old days.

"Hey, I'm sorry. I didn't think it would go down like that.”

“SO you were in on the set-up? It’s good to know my friends have my back. What was the endgame there? Cause I still haven't figured it out.”

"You weren't getting anywhere with him, so when Xander brought your present we thought we coulduse it to make him jealous and spark a reaction.”

"Well, you were right. His reaction was to call me a two timing wh*re and all of you ruined thememory of a gift that should be special to me. Do the guys know that their gift and I were used to

bait Tyler?”

She looks down at her hands, clasping and unclasping them.

"That's what I thought. And who's 'we’ exactly?”

“Alyssa and I." She whispers.

"So you didn’t get the idea from Xander or Nickolas or

Osiston? Did Xander explain the significance of the necklace?”

"No." She’s still whispering.
