12 How I like My Coffee
Tia.
My heart was in my mouth as Luke pulled me to his wing; he did not say anything. I had no words in my mouth. I was afraid.
We entered the room, and he tossed me on the bed. I became scared about what he would do to me. The pictures and my panties were still in his hands, shaking.
“Why, Tia, did it have to be him? Why won’t you just leave him alone? He said he didn’t want you when our father asked him. He did not like you enough to fight for you, and you do this,” he said, and tears were streaming down my face. Luna Stacy was wicked.
“Wh, Tia?” he asked me. Luke’s eyes were teary, and I shook my head. “They are lies, Luke. Yes, we hang out and train together with Kirk there, just as we always have. It is part of the job, and you know it. The photos have been photoshopped. Other than the time we kissed in the library, we have not done anything,” I explained, and he calmed down and looked at me. He looked at me long and hard and then sighed. I hoped he would believe me. I needed someone to believe me because Alpha Aesop had shown me he was a mad man. Casting my parents out for this was wicked. It was wrong for the goddess to give one family all the power.
“I believe you,” he said, and I was shocked that he believed me easily. I looked at him to be sure, then sighed with relief. I could not believe he believed me that easily.
“Stacy has done worse to me, Tia. You have to be careful around her,” he said, and I shook my head. I was in complete shock; this had never happened to me before. No one has ever lied against me before. The woman was a bitch, and Alpha Aesop was a fool and an asshole. They deserved each other. I was shaking uncontrollably.
Luke sat next to me on the bed and held me to his chest to calm me down.
“I am sorry I dragged you here,” he said, and I was sobbing. “Guess we will not be eating breakfast with them anymore,” he said, rubbing my back, and I tried to be calm. The shock of what had happened was rushing through my body, but I tried to calm down. “Go and take a warm shower, Tia. Dress up, and I will take you out,” Luke said, and I was shocked.
“Don’t you have to go to the office?” I asked him, and he smiled.

What else had Stacy concocted against me? “Have you eaten?” Alpha Aesop asked, and I nodded. “Please sit,” he said. He sounded nicer. I sat down, and Luke sat next to me.

We will keep having problems in this house if you do not deal with the problem,” Luke said to his father, and Alpha Aesop nodded. “I agree,” Alpha Aesop said, “I will be sending Stacy to her town to reflect on her choices.

the paternity of that baby is determined. Caleb might be promiscuous, but he is my son. He has been adamant that Kimberly’s baby isn’t his, so I will give him the benefit of the doubt and have the baby tested. Pending on the result, we will know what to do.” He said, and Kimberly started shedding silent tears. She excused herself and left. Stacy tried to stop her, but she refused to stop. I sat there still
