Chapter 137: After Dinner Confrontations

The moment Cassie left the room became extremely silent. Odin stood where Cassie had once been, his fists clenched at his sides as he stared towards the empty archway that led to the dining room. I wasn’t sure what he was going to do, but the powerful aura radiating off him right now was enough to make my wolf cower in fear.

“Odin, please come sit,” Freya said as she stood from her seat.

For a moment, I thought he was going to agree, but as he stood there, he growled with what seemed frustration. “Everyone get out! Dinner is over.”

He didn’t have to tell me or anyone else twice as we all scattered, including the blue-haired beauty who had once been sitting with Cassie.

I wasn’t sure who the girl was, but something about her I found completely intoxicating. The soft strands of electric blue hair framed her face perfectly, highlighting those mesmerizing green eyes, and when she moved, it was almost like she glided across the floor, her long purple dress flowing behind her.

Everything in my body told me to go after her, but the moment I stepped from the dining hall, she had disappeared and I didn’t have the slightest clue as to where she had gone.

“She’s the one, isn’t she?” Lucas’ voice taunted from behind

me, causing me to groan. The last thing I wanted to do was entertain him, but no matter how much I tried to avoid this asshole, he always seemed to be around at the worst of times.

Turning to face him, I narrowed my eyes and glared in his direction. “What the hell are you talking about?”

“Are you seriously going to play that card?” He laughed before heading, down the hallways towards the dorms. “Of all the people, I thought you would have been excited.”

“Again, what the hell are you talking about, Vega?”

Lucas stopped in his tracks, glancing over his shoulder at me with nothing but amusement lingering in his eyes. “Aren’t you the one who was always determined to find your soul mate, Lux? Yet, you can’t even see her when your given the chance.”

Soul mate? He thought that girl was my mate?

It was my turn to laugh and as I did, I passed where he stood. “She isn’t my mate.”

For him to even think the girl was my mate was amusing. Yeah, she was gorgeous, but she was no shifter and my mate had to be a shifter. Honestly, was Lucas not aware of our culture at all? I wasn’t sure where he had been educated by pack life at all.

“Whatever you have to tell yourself, Lux. Anyone in that room could see the tension between you and her. Not to mention you couldn’t keep your eyes off her the entire time we were in there, minus when Cassie went off on Odin…”
