Prince Reagan

His Decision

Lana and l ended up meeting at a small restaurant instead since she was hungry. And I hadn’t exactly cooked anything back at home.

it seems she only gets worse each time I see her.

Her skin is sickly pale, and there are bags underneath her droopy eyes. The tiredness is evident in them, and even though she tries to smooth it out with a smile, she fails horribly. Her pixie cut almost resembles a bird nest, and I watch her run her hands through them over and over again.

She reminds me of how I used to be during those months of recuperating from Brad’s rejection, only!

was a bit worse.

1 stare down at the smoothie and plate of french fries that she had ordered and has only had one fry since. It’s so sad seeing her this way. I wish there was something I could do to help. I want her to go to her

mate, but she can be stubborn sometimes.

“You seem..okay…” I comment, staring down at her disheveled appearance opposite me. Truthfully, she looks like hell.

Her lips c**k up in a forced smile as she takes her smoothie drink and sips from it.

“No need to be so modest.” Her tone drips with sarcasm. “Now, tell me why you called me here. I have tons of textbooks to go through at my dorm.”

I sigh, looking down at my hamburger. I don’t want to stress her even more than she already is, but maybe this is a good thing. Maybe she would change her mind and go back to Red Moon Pack.

“Uh…my aunt Diana called…” I began, and I can already feel her grow tense, noticing the connection

between her mate and my aunt. I can feel her burning stare on me as she awaits my next word with bated

breath.

“Somehow, he found out,”1 announce, lifting my head up to see her reaction.

She’s silent for a while, blinking with a blank expression at me. I know she knows who I’m talking about, but I wait for the shock to register before she reacts.

“How?” is the only question she asks with a raspy voice.

“Remember the shirt you gave aunt?” I ask for her to nod. “Well, he smelt your scent on it and

somehow knew you were his mate.” I narrate briefly to her as she chews on her bottom lip nervously.

She leans in to whisper, “And what did he say?”

I wait for a few seconds before answering.

“He’s giving you seven days to come back on your own…or he’s coming for you himself.”

Her eyes widen in panic as she frantically looks around the small restaurant. She seems to be having

trouble breathing as her breath turns shallow, and I furrow my eyebrows in worry at her.

“Are you alright?” I ask, ready to stand up to meet her.

She takes a few seconds to calm down before she closes her eyes and lets out one long exhale. She

snaps them back open for me to see them glowing a light brown belore they turn back to the usual dull brown they were.

“I‘m fine. My wolf almost came out. She’s been a bit moody with ma lately. But I understand I’m separating her from her mate, and she’s not happy about it.she shrugs before letting out a light chuckle. I know she’s trying to avoid the big question, which is,
