My Secret, My Bully, My Mates by Miss L

"Yes, Happy Birthday Mateo. I hope your mate is strong enough to put up with you and smart enough to team up with your sister against you." Mina laughs and Mateo smiles, then she looks back at me. "So what is this I hear about Robbie dropping off random people?"

I groan a little at her. "That is it, literally. He got our attention, by carrying Gentry in like a dead body and then he told me to keep her and the dozen extra people he brought. He told us to figure out how to free them from the binding spell, then just left."

"That is not all he did." Dakota growls. "He was way too comfortable with you, and if he ever gets in your face like that again, I will rip his head off."

"Stop, he wasn't in my face. He just got close enough to tell me something he didn't want anyone else to hear."

"What did he say to you?" Mina asks suspiciously. "He wasn't overly talkative."

"Nothing relevant to this situation." I know this conversation is not over by a long shot.

"What I want to know is why did he bring those captives to you? How did he know you wouldtake them in?" Mateo asks.

"Once they had me with Jena, they spent a lot of time figuring out who and how powerful we were. They found out I was a Beta's kid, so Robbie probably thought I had some pull in the pack to bring in outsiders. He helped get us out and as a former captive, he probably assumed I would help others." I shrug.

"So it's safe to assume he'll be coming back then?" Oliver sounds irritated now. I need these boys to find their mates and give me a break already.
