"Rio's here early," Aaron comments, not giving a second thought to the fact that Rio is walking into the restaurant making a complete racket when he throws the door so hard it crashes into the wall, "He's pissed or something?”Rio walks up to us and before Aaron can ask him what the hell is wrong with him, Rio grabs Aaron by the collar and pulls him towards him."What the fuck do you think you're doing?" he snarls in his face, furious. He looks completely wild, like I said."What are you doing?" Aaron groans and tries to push him away, but Rio doesn't let go. I get up before this gets even worse."Rio, let's talk," I say, "Let him go.""Why is he touching your hair like that?" He demands, his eyes fixed on Aaron, "Who the fuck is this guy?! And what are you doing with him? What the fuck are you even doing here?!""Stop yelling. Please," I beg, grabbing his arm and trying to pull him, but it’s like trying to move a building. There aren't many people around, but the ones who are here do

{ Rio }All through school a lot of kids wanted to be our friends and although we were always friendly with everyone, we never formed real friendships with anyone because it was always just the three of us and that's the way we liked it. Alex, Laurie and I, that was all we needed. The others were just people we would sometimes go out to dinner with or who would invite us to their parties, but we never formed meaningful connections with anyone. I'm regretting that now. Because both Alex and Laurie are now dead to me, of course, but also because it means that when I get to Fallonmore I have no one to call. I have no one to turn to, no one who's not part of my family. I mean, I could call some old friends to go for a drink or hang out, but to ask them for a place to stay? I don't think so. Fortunately, I have money and that's all I need to go lock myself in the hotel of Fallonmore.That's where I stay, marinating in self-pity and deep hatred for my old friends. Including Lunanci now.

{ Lunanci }I'm lying in bed at eight o'clock at night ready to sleep because I have nothing else to do and because I have a horrible migraine that hasn't left me alone for a couple of days now, next to Alex's anxious energy that is making everything worse, when someone knocks on the door. Alex groans and is about to stand up to open it but the door opens before that and Aaron walks in, looking weird and still in uniform."What's wrong?""Uhh... Lucinda Taffy's here for you," Aaron says. Alex doesn't even respond, he stays on the bed paralyzed with fear, "She's in the living room. She asked to speak to her son Alex so I think she knows all about your lie. Trust me, she's not happy at all."Alex gulps and turns to look at the window, I don't even have to ask him to know he's thinking about escaping."Did you already tell her I'm here?""She didn't ask, she knows you're here. She ordered me to come get you. She's my boss, dude.... Or, she will be. I'm sorry, but I can't tell her no or

"By the way, why did you sedate Alpha?" I ask once we separate and I can finally breathe a little. Rio sighs. "I didn't know what I was going to find in here. I thought you were with Aaron, remember? I couldn't risk my wolf wanting to get out and fuck shit up in case my guesses were true," he answers and I just nod because it makes a little sense, "I won't put him to sleep again, I promise. We're both on the same page now.""That sounds good," I reply and I get on my tiptoes to give him one last kiss, "I'm starving. Let's go inside and eat something.""Okay. And in the meantime, can you tell me how this happened? You suddenly living with my brother and Aaron?" Rio asks as we walk inside the house.Although I don't want to tell him, I also don't want to start our relationship with secrets, so I tell him the whole truth. About the day I met Aaron and how I gave him my number. Rio loses his smile then, but I keep going and tell him about how he thought there was something between us bec
