Wow! He was sweet, and he made me smile, but he'd always been like that with me, it was just how we'd clicked as friends, it was like that before we could tell we were mates so it had nothing to do with us being mates. So I don't need to worry about that. Even if I chose I don't want him to be my mate and that I am sticking to not having a mate and reject him then we will still have our friendship right?

Anyway, I need to call Indie, need to have some clothes to wear, prepare to tell the guys here everything, see if they have a plan, then go break the news to pack I'm leaving......what is Anya going to do? What will Logan do? Could he stop me leaving? I wasn't going to think of that now. I had Knox there for me to defend me and stand up for me, that in itself was a massive support.

I found my phone from my bag and saw my Mum had responded to my text from the early hours I'd sent, explaining I had ended up staying at the pack house here because of working so late and risk of

rogues.

Hi Del,

That seems sensible sweetheart. But don't be overworking. I know you are enjoying the job and have lots of opportunities there but don't let them expect too much of you. Though I do agree with them not travelling back tonight was best, has been reports of a lot of random rogue attacks. Hope you sleep ok.

Mum

Typical mum overreacting. A lot of the overworking she thought I had been doing had in fact been staying late chatting to the guys, going for drinks or visiting Indie at the pack here, I quickly messaged her back to let her know I wouldn't be home tonight either so she didn't worry.

Hey mama,

Don't worry, I will be careful not to overwork, they let me stay in bed late today after yesterday, sorting me food out shortly too before we work again. I won't be coming home tonight though as while at the packhouse this morning I saw Indie and she's desperate for a catch up, so I promised I'd come back after work and stay over. Hope that's ok with you guys. Hope you and pops are ok. Love

Amazing how easy the lies seem to come for my mum, though I'd had to get into the habit of that over the last year or so to avoid Logan.....anyway time to call Indie...I dialled her number, she answered almost immediately.

"LILAH!!" she shrieked.

"Indie please don't deafen me" I laugh.

I hear her giggle "Sorry baby doll, you ok? Dan said you stayed here last night?"

"Ah yeah worked crazy late, then was rogue attacks so Knox wouldn't let me travel home so late

saying wasn't safe so stayed here" I explained.
