And Then There Were Four (Lilith Carrie)

Chapter 89: Assuming Information

I hadn’t expected dinner to go the way it had. But now that it was over, I was glad, considering Damien ended up blowing up into a million different pieces when the elder had conversations in the way she did.

Talk about being completely awkward. I was the center of the awkwardness, and it was not a place wanted to go back to any time soon. If I hadn’t lost it slightly in the moment, there was no telling what Damian would have done to her.

Laying on Talon’s bed, I got hold of myself, and it didn’t take long for Talon and Hale to come find me. Forty minutes of deep breathing and cuddling with both men calmed the internal fire within me, and now we were caught up in small talk and sarcastic comments.

“So how pissed off do you think he’s really going to continue being?” I asked the boys, who turned to me with nothing but amusement, dancing in their eyes.

“It depends,” Talon replied. “One time when we were kids, James stole Damien’s favorite T-shirt because he thought it was too small for Damien and completely stained it in one afternoon. When Damian found out, he literally held that grudge for like five years.”

“Five years over a f*****g T-shirt. That’s a bit childish, don’t you think?”

“It may have been childish, but then again, we were children. So, to Damian, that was a very big deal,” he replied, shrugging his shoulders.

“Talon, if you’re gonna tell it, tell the truth,” Hale sighed, pinching the bridge of his nose. “The shirt was one that our mother had given him that was our father’s. So, in a sense, it was actually a big deal to him.”

“Dude, he had, like, fifty f*****g shirts that were our dads and poor James had got none. Solmean, realistically… It wasn’t that big of a deal? He could have given that one shirt to James. Lord knows he had asked for it for, like, two freaking weeks,” Talon replied in a very dramatic effect.

It made sense now why James and Damian didn’t seem as close. Not just because of that, but in general. Damian was the oldest and thought he was entitled because he was the oldest, and James was the youngest… the baby, and he thought he was entitled to.

“I can kind of understand why Damian would be upset, you know, considering it was something sentimental like that. But this is completely different. I mean, the elder was out of line completely, and honestly, I don’t like whatever she was getting at.”

“She literally insulted Damian as an alpha tried to insult us. Lord knows, poor James is probably devastated over her comment on his cooking, and in a way, she was trying to undermine you as a Luna,” Hale replied.

In a way, he was right, and because he was, I couldn’t deny the need to get rid of her.

“Okay, I get it. She f****d up. But I mean, maybe that’s just her messing up as a new elder. I mean, she hasn’t really been in the position long, has she?”

Again, they both shrugged their shoulders.

“I don’t know what you’re looking to do, Ivy. I mean, she’s here for the next couple of days, and you were the one that told her it would be okay for her to stay,” Talon rambled on. His comments were not the help I was looking for, and picking up a pillow, I quickly chucked it at his head.

“Well, then, why don’t we find something else to preoccupy our time with?” Though Damian had tended to me a few nights before, I was equally hungry for the two of them and
