I covered my face with my hands. He doesn’t want me.
My wolves laid down and I knew they were sad. We know how you feel about Rowan. How you feel about Thoth if you are ever
going to admit it? We already told you we won’t interfere, but Erubus just snuck up on us. Megan huffed out a breath as she
flopped over.
Nix nodded. We thought we were just getting past the anger and the hurt that the two of them caused us. So that we could all learn
to work together. And we did. Nix sighed as she laid her head down on her paws.
Okay. I can understand that. I sat back. But what happened?
He was…just himself. No interruption. No human getting in the way with his emotions. Rowan talks himself out of a lot. Nix
shook her head. He takes a lot onto himself, more than needed. He thinks that his mate will make or break the realm. Nix sighed. I
feel bad for the weight he forces on himself. He must be exhausted all the time.
Megan nodded. He never pushed us, never made me feel excluded or uncomfortable.
He likes you. Nix looked at her. He likes you a lot.
If Megan was human, I would say she was blushing. He’s just being nice. He loves you. You can tell it by the way he looks at you.
Nix nodded. Sure you can, just like you can tell how he feels about you. They turned to me. We know this isn’t what
you
wanted.
We weren’t ever going to tell you, but now we are here. We have about two weeks before we are going into another heat. It’s our
fault for falling for Erubus when his human has shown us he’s should not be trusted. But-
Megan cut in. We couldn’t help it.
Do you love him? I watched their faces. I needed to know what the hell I was going to do if they did.
Nix and Megan looked at each other and then back at me. Nix tilted her head. I’ve never been in love before. I have only ever seen
or felt it from you two. But I don’t think I would say I’m in love. I like him. I enjoy his company. I enjoy talking with him and
spending time with him, but I think we have all held back.
Megan nodded. I like him, and I know that if I let it, it could grow into love. She leveled me with a look. But Nix and I decided way
before Erubus started showing up that the two of us fucked with your relationships too much already in both of our lives. We
won’t do it again. You loved Brandon because I did. You held back from being with Rowan because of Nix’s feelings for Erubus.
You have finally put yourself back together after the two wrecks we made. It’s your turn.
I looked at Nix, but she was already nodding. We can care about one, but leave room for you to love another.
I wouldn’t ask you to do that.
We know. Megan came to the barrier.
Nix followed. Which is why we are telling you. What we feel for Erubus doesn’t matter. You just need to prepare for your heat.

And maybe…talk to Thoth a little more. Megan put in before they turned and left me alone, reeling.
There was a knock at the door. “Alpha Amy.” My head snapped up to see the omega waiting at my door with food. “May I come in
to serve you lunch?”
I sat up and smiled. “Of course. Come in.” She set up my food, three steaks and a baked potato, and then left. I dug in as a
notification pinged on my phone. I looked at it, and it was Rick.
Rick- Alannah said you were having trouble with the ninth firewall. I told you I made it unpenetrable, unless you had a battering ram. Why don’t you look for a back door? I didn’t make it easy, but if you want to take Vince down; you have to get into the
mainframe.
This was the second, or third, time he talked about a back door. The message was gone before I could read it again. I sighed and
put my phone down, turning back to my steak. I had just popped another piece into my mouth when another ping rang out.
Rick- Oh and Amy? You better fucking make your move. Rick has been talking to Garith and they are making their move on the
king right after your mating ceremony. 1
Right after the mating ceremony. I looked at the calender and pinched my nose. I hurried and finished my food and turned back to
the computer. I could barely focus with the last text running through my mind. The timer on the screen made my stomach clench,
but its message was blazingly clear.
I was running out of time.
