Sweet Little Mate 26: Lila
I want to believe Luke when he says he's pulling back because he wants to make sure I'm ready to be a permanent part of this life of his life."Luke, before I agree to accept you completely, can we talk about Ezra?""Of course," he responded readily."What do you think we should do?" I asked,, biting my lip, nervous about his response."Well, I know you just turned eighteen and probably haven't been thinking about kids and a family. So I'll leave the decision to you," he said, and this answer irritated me."No, that's not fair, Luke. I won't make a decision for you that changes your entire life. I will say, though, that I love Ezra already and feel fiercely protective of him if that isn't obvious." I said, rolling my eyes dramatically."I would want him to stay with me if you are ready for that. If not, I understand, but Ezra is amazing." I said truthfully, locking my eyes on Luke."Are you sure that's what you want, it's a lifetime commitment," He asked earnestly."I have babysat and
Sweet Little Mate 27: Luke
I was down on one knee, waiting for Lila to answer. There aren't many things that make me nervous, but not knowing if Lila wanted me made my heart race. I could feel her gaze locked on me, searching my face. I don't know what she was looking for, but she suddenly threw herself into my arms."Yes, I will marry you." I stood holding her in my arms, kissing her. Her giddy laugh loosened itself against my mouth.I set Lila down and found my eyes looking at her lips, and I leaned down, biting them gently, and then teased her lips open with my tongue, wanting to pick back up where we had left off. Lila pushes me away."Luke?""Yes, mate?" I responded to her."Would you hate me if I said I wanted to wait until we get married? I never thought I'd wait, but knowing we are engaged now, I think maybe waiting is what I want." She bites her lip nervously, waiting for my reaction."If you want to wait, we will. I will never force you to be with me. I will wait if that's what makes you happy.""Than
Sweet Little Mate 28: Lila
The next couple of weeks passed all too quickly. I started classes online and just had to complete my finals. I did a brief refresher of the materials, and now I'll take my exams. We have fallen into a rhythm in the pack house with Ezra. Donte and Jake have become a part of my life as well. They are both searching and hoping to find their mates. I thought it would be hard to feel genuinely at home here, but everyone has been really kind.We have set our wedding date to happen as soon as I finish my finals, so in another two weeks. I never imagined I'd get married so young, especially to someone I had just met. The mate bond helps to push you together though, and being able to feel what Luke does provides me with a level of comfort that helps me to know that this is absolutely the right decision.One thing that's really bothering me though is my dad. I have had so much time to think about him, and I am terrified of what he is planning. My dad is drunk and that causes people to underest
Sweet Little Mate 29: Unknown
I watched her the night her father tried to kill her. I knew what he was planning to do, and I stood there in the shadows watching, unsure if I wanted to intervene. I decided to wait and see how things played out. If I end up being needed, I can always change my mind.Her wolf was interesting. I saw it a few days ago, and the color is different on her birthday, though, which is intriguing. I'll have to let them know. I followed her to her new pack. She was settling in so well. I almost reached out to her at the diner until she started talking to Stephanie and Alice. What a shame that was. It was probably best, though, as I don't know where things will end when we talk.Sweet little Lila's mate is the alpha. I've continued to watch her, and she is settling in as well as they expected. I need her to get very comfortable and learn all that she can. To my surprise, she agreed to marry Luke. She moves fast; maybe she isn't quite as sweet and innocent as we all believe.Lila and little Ezra
Sweet Little Mate 30: Lila
I am going with Stephanie, Betty, Donte, and Jake to pick out my wedding dress. Donte and Jake have become some of the best friends I could have asked for. They will help make sure I choose a dress Luke will love. They are also coming for protection in case my dad is looking for me. Margot, Luke's sister, is also meeting us at the dress shop. It will be my first time meeting her in person. So far, we have only met through Facetime. We're going to Scottsdale to look for my dress.I tried on too many dresses at the first shop; none were right, though. I need something that fits and doesn't need any alterations as we won't have time for the wedding in a week. I finished my classes, and we set a date as soon as possible. I am so ready to marry Luke that it scares me a bit. I don't think there is anything I have ever wanted more. I'm a bit scared because I have never been this happy. Luke is perfect for me, and I am terrified I might somehow mess it up.The second shop we go into is smalle
Sweet Little Mate 31: Luke
I don't think I have ever felt the way I did getting the call from my mom that Lila had been attacked. I don't know how this happened. I don't know what would have happened if the doctor couldn't get to her as quickly as he did. Her heart rate was low, and her breathing was shallow.Being back at the pack hospital means she has the best treatment. Unfortunately, we don't know what happened and what she was given, but she is still unconscious. If there is anything to find, Jake will find it. My mom and Margot were just here checking on Lila. They brought me breakfast and a change of clothes as I refused to leave her side last night. I thought she would have woken up by now."Luke, the toxicology test came back," stated the doctor as he came into the room. I was on my feet and beside Lila."Morning glory" The doctor's eyes locked on mine.This was an answer I wasn't prepared for. You don't see poisoning by morning glory."What do we do now?" I asked, looking for anything the doctor's fa
Sweet Little Mate 32: Unknown
I heard that our new Luna had returned from dress shopping by ambulance. That was the signal I needed to know that the plan had been set in motion.I saw Jake in the park eating lunch with little Ezra and decided this would be the perfect time to gauge what they knew if anything."Hey Jake, how is Luna doing?" It makes me sick knowing she is the Luna. She doesn't understand the responsibility it requires and isn't worthy. Lila is weak and trusts too easily what Luna, in her right mind, accepts a bunch of rogues into their pack. She didn't even question any of us; she just welcomed us all in and assumed we were loyal to her. Her idiot of a mate didn't even attempt to stop her. He's a moron too."Hey, man! She is doing okay." Jake answered in between bites.This whole d*mn pack is too relaxed. They seem to think they're above any of the issues that other packs face regularly. This is going to be easier than we thought. Even with Luke having increased security, it's still more relaxed th
Sweet Little Mate 33: Lila
When I woke up, the first thing I noticed was how uncomfortable the bedsheets they were almost like parchment paper. I sat up slowly, my body feeling weak, looking around and adjusting my eyes to the light that shone through the large window. I saw Luke sleeping on a chair. He looked very uncomfortable, and I heard a little snoring from the boy who had curled up in the bed beside me.I tried to sit up further, but I realized I was connected to an IV. I suddenly felt very sick. I saw the trash can and woke Ezra to hurry and bring me the small garbage pail. Ezra hurries, bringing it to me. The noise woke Luke up, who was by my side instantly, holding back my hair."Lila, are you okay?" Luke asked, seeming so unnerved. Ezra, on the other hand, was just happy to see me awake. He walked over to the door of the room and yelled."Leela is up!" he closed the door and ran to my bed.The doctor was in the room within minutes. I read the name tag Dr. Lumen"How are you feeling, Luna?" Dr. Lumen
