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.

movies together. I still could not shake the fact that Stacy had set me up, but I was glad Luke believed me and supported me. He promised to get to the bottom of the matter, and I hoped he would succeed. One week later, Alpha Aesop summoned me to the breakfast room. I was reluctant to go, but Luke promised he would protect me. I wasn’t afraid of them; I just did not want the man to cast my parents and me out of the pack. When I got to the breakfast table, everyone was there. “What are you doing here?” Luna Stacy asked. “I sent for her, Stacy,” Alpha Aesop said, and my hands shook while I stood. Luke held my hand to calm me down, but I couldn’t. I was afraid. Caleb was not happy that Luke touched my hand; his eyes showed it. I wished I could run away from that place. 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. He placed his hand on my thigh and rubbed lightly to calm me down, but his touch got me aroused, and this wasn’t the place for that. “Tia, I am sorry about what happened. I have wronged you deeply,” Alpha Aesop said, and I looked at him with shock. Stacy was shocked too. ” Apparently, it was lies. Caleb caught the photographer and the staff who stole your underwear from your room. My apologies, please,” He said, and relief washed through me and tears of relief began to fall. These
